Miley Cyrus made fun of her wild post-Disney Channel days while being honored Sunday at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California.

The Flowers singer was emotional as she became the youngest person to earn the title of Disney Legend, an distinction bestowed on those who have made a lasting impact on the world of Walt Disney Studios.

In her acceptance speech, Cyrus looked back at how she went from a childhood TV star to a boundary-breaking pop diva, taking time to apologize for rebelling against her wholesome Disney persona after her hit show, Hannah Montana, wrapped in 2011, when she was 19.

Reminiscing about her earliest memories with Disney, Cyrus said, In 2005, Disney was on a mission to rebuild and reimagine the company. Thats why they hired Bob Iger, and me.

I remember this clearly because it was during the auditioning process of Hannah Montana, she said. There was a buzz in that Burbank Disney office where its rumored that they create all of us Disney Kids.

Cyrus laughed that she wasnt created in a lab but said that if she were, something must have short-circuited around the time of her 2013 album, Bangerz, when she transformed from a sugary-sweet child actor to a twerk-happy party girl.

There mustve been a bug in the system which caused me to malfunction somewhere between the years of 2013 and 16, she said with a laugh. Sorry, Mickey.
