Billy Ray Cyrus gives shout out to Kiwi university students for their Halloween costumes

Three Christchurch University students were lucky enough to get a Halloween shout out from none other than the legendary Billy Ray Cyrus!

The 'Achy Breaky Heart' singer and father of pop star, Miley Cyrus, reached out to the students after he spotted the trio's Halloween costumes on Instagram.

Natasha Payne, Grace Thomas, and Harry Poland dressed up as Hannah Montana, Miley Stewart (both played by Miley Cyrus), and Bobby-Ray Stewart (played by Billy Ray Cyrus) from the popular show 'Hannah Montana' for a party.

Thomas said they "freaked out" after they woke up the next morning to find a notification of a tag from Cyrus - who had shared a picture of the three dressed up as him for the spooky holiday.

Alongside the photo, Cyrus wrote: "Dang Flabbit! A lot of you were me for #Halloween already! Thanks for sharing your costumes, these are amazing!".
