Add Page Six on Google A former Disney teen pop star is accusing Miley Cyrus of bullying.
Jordan Pruitt — who toured with the Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato and the Cheetah Girls in the early 2000s — made the claim in a newly surfaced Instagram comment, according to Reddit.
Responding to an old social media video in which Cyrus is allegedly making fun of Lovato and Selena Gomez, Pruitt commented, "This is how Miley treated everyone back in the day including me lol."
A fan replied in the thread, urging her to "give us the tea," prompting her to share the details of Cyrus' alleged bullying.
"Miley used to call me and leave me nasty voicemails with her and her friend named Mandy saying I needed a nose job, new teeth, and a choreographer lol," Pruitt claimed.
The singer, 35, ended her comment by calling the "Party In The U.S.A." artist, 33, "relentless."
Pruitt's post about Cyrus' alleged mean-girl behavior amassed more than 1,000 likes at the time the screenshot was taken.
Cyrus' rep did not immediately respond to Page Six's request for comment.
This isn't the first time Pruitt has dragged Cyrus publicly. In March, Pruitt revealed in an Instagram comment that she wrote her song "Boyfriend" about the "Flowers" singer," according to a screenshot shared on X.
"You're not gonna steal my boyfriend/ You're not gonna steal him, not now," Pruitt sings in the 2008 tune.
At the time, rumors swirled that Pruitt was dating Nick Jonas, though their romance was never confirmed. Meanwhile, Cyrus dated Jonas between 2006 and 2007.
Pruitt is best known for her 2006 song "Outside Looking In," as well as her hit, "Jump to the Rhythm," from the 2007 Disney Channel movie "Jump In!," which stars Corbin Bleu and Keke Palmer.
The teen songstress put out two albums through Disney's Hollywood Records and toured with several of the network's major acts.
She took her talents to "The Voice" in 2012, where she competed as a member of Christina Aguilera's team. Just five years later, she retired from her music career.
In 2019, Pruitt sued Disney, Hollywood Records and former manager Keith Thomas , alleging that he sexually abused her beginning when she was 14 years old and that the record label failed to protect her.
Pruitt claimed that Thomas took her virginity and once drugged and anally penetrated her, according to the August 2019 lawsuit obtained by Page Six.
“Unfortunately, these large companies are primarily concerned with sales, money and charts,” Pruitt said in a statement to Variety at the time. “Too often they fall short of protecting the young talent that they are ‘supposed’ to be caretakers for… I couldn’t be more disappointed in how Disney treats their underage talent like cash cows.”
