Miley Cyrus arrives on the red carpet for the MTV Video Music Awards at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, Aug. 25, 2013.

Between twerking at the VMAs and smoking weed on stage at the European Music Awards, Miley Cyrus has brought plenty of buzz to MTV.

To say thank you, the network decided to give Cyrus control of its cable TV channel for her 21st birthday on Saturday. That means there will be eight consecutive hours of Miley-approved programming.

Viewers will be treated to 21 Candles: Miley’s MTV Moments (which, as it sounds, chronicles the stars funniest appearances), a re-airing of her documentary with new commentary, and then two of the birthday girl’s favorite MTV series: Awkward and Snooki and Jwoww.
