Growing up with an extremely famous sibling can be difficult sometimes, and Noah has been open about how Miley’s fame has affected her.

“My whole life I was told that I would amount to zero because of what my sister had accomplished for herself,” she shared last year onZach Sang: Just the Interviews podcast. “It made it really hard for me to grow up being told you’re going to live in her shadow. Are you Miley Cyrus’s sister? Are you Hannah Montana’s sister? That made me feel like I had no identity as a child.”

Noah also admitted that she had been in the media since she was a child, and the constantly opinions people had of her messed with her self-esteem.

“Whenever I was younger, there were a lot of comparisons and there were a lot of things said about me and the way I look that destroyed me becoming an adult,” she shared. “That destroyed my view of myself. That wouldn’t have happened if I wasn’t a public person since birth. That wasn’t my choice. I love my family but everybody has their issues. This was mine. It really f***ed me up.”

Noah has since grown up and become her own person. She is now releasing music under her own name and showing the world what she is capable of.

She also asks that people not compare her to her father or sister, saying, “So it’s just out of respect for me and it should’ve been out of respect for me since I was a kid, just to call me by my name. That’s the only thing I ask.”
