Miley Cyrus is living her best of both worlds on social media. A recent slew of posts from the singer embodying her iconic, blonde-haired Disney Channel character, Hannah Montana, has many fans wondering about the possibility of a reboot.

The posting frenzy started on Sunday when Cyrus shared a photo of her younger self to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the show’s first episode.

Then she posted a series of Instagram photos to further celebrate the millennial cult classic.

“You know guys, it was so hard going back and forth, that I decided that I’ll be Hannah forever,” Cyrus says in one video. “She was getting a lot of press this week, thanks to me.”

Here she is jamming out to the “The Best of Both Worlds.”

“The best of both worlds, like when you take an upper and a downer at the same time,” an all-grown-up Hannah says in the video.

She even did the 10-year challenge, and won.

Oh, and apparently Hannah is “punk now.”

She also aptly rocked out to Migos’ song “Hannah Montana.”

In 2013, Cyrus hosted Saturday Night Live and officially declared Hannah Montana dead. “I can give you an update on what she’s been up to. She was murdered,” Cyrus said on the show. So this new update has fans understandably stoked.

“Miley just brought Hannah Montana back from the dead and that’s really all I care about today,” wrote on Twitter user.

“I’m not emotionally prepared for Hannah Montana to come baCK I WILL SOB,” another said.

“If Miley is just messing with us and Hannah Montana isn’t actually coming back consider her cancelled we don’t joke about serious shit like that,” wrote user @niallscunts.
