Rising comedy star Danae Hays makes a memorable appearance on the hit podcast Sorry We’re Cyrus, hosted by Tish Cyrus and Brandi Cyrus, now streaming on YouTube.
In an episode packed with humor, heart, and unfiltered storytelling, Hays delivers a full-circle moment years in the making.
From tearfully telling her father she wished she could leave Tennessee like Miley Cyrus did to become Hannah Montana, to now sitting across from Miley’s own family, Hays reflects on a journey that’s as unlikely as it is inspiring. With her signature Southern charm and quick wit, she keeps the conversation lively while sharing the defining moments that shaped her career.
During the episode, Hays dives into her origin story, including the viral prank call to an Alabama taxidermist that catapulted her into the spotlight. She also opens up about making her debut at the Grand Ole Opry, a milestone that underscores her growing presence in entertainment beyond social media.
The conversation doesn’t shy away from personal territory either. Hays shares details about her love life—with a surprising twist involving one of Tish Cyrus’ longtime family friends—and candidly discusses what it’s really like to headline a full hour of comedy without prior stand-up experience. In one of the episode’s standout moments, she hilariously recounts the time she flat-out lied to her agent at Creative Artists Agency (CAA) to land a gig, proving her hustle is just as bold as her humor.
With plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and unpredictable stories, this episode of Sorry We’re Cyrus is a must-watch for comedy fans and anyone who appreciates a good underdog story with a Southern twist.
