biography
Initially written off as a “one-hit wonder” after failing to revisit the oversaturated heights he reached with his cloying country hit “Achy Breaky Heart,” Billy Ray Cyrus was in the right place at the right time with the right look, and his catchy hit helped usher in the era of New Country; however, he was soon eclipsed by lasting talents like Alan Jackson and Garth Brooks. When Cyrus turned his attention to acting, he proved an even bigger success as an appealing and competent actor in family entertainment like the PAX series “Doc” (2000-04).
