Miley Cyrus became interested in acting when she was nine, and took classes at the Armstrong Acting Studio while her family lived in Toronto, Canada. Miley Cyrus' early career was marked by minor roles, the first of which was playing a girl named Kylie on her father's television series Doc. In 2003, Miley Cyrus was credited under her birth name for her role as "Young Ruthie" in Tim Burton's Big Fish. Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus's godmother, advised Miley Cyrus’ mother to sign Cyrus with Morey Management Group, which The Hollywood Reporter said "was the best advice she could [have gotten] on who should rep her daughter". The group's leader, Jim Morey, and his son, Jason, began co-managing Miley Cyrus’ career alongside Tish Cyrus.
