Brenda Song Defended From 'Weirdo' Trace Cyrus After Allegations Of Fake Pregnancy During Romance
Brenda Song is receiving an outpouring of support from fans amid bombshell allegations from her ex-boyfriend, . The brother of pop star recalled harrowing details of their seven-year relationship, accusing the Disney alum of telling "lies." However, fans think Trace, who has been making headlines for bizarre social media rants, is only seeking attention. The drama began on Wednesday, June 11, after a fan insulted Trace in an Instagram comment section. "Ahhhh, now we know why Brenda left. Good riddance," the user wrote, as seen in a screenshot shared on X. The "Seventeen Forever" star didn't take the remark lightly and decided to spill the tea on what ended the relationship. "Yes, because she stole thousands of dollars from me and faked multiple pregnancies," Trace replied. He alleged that Song lied to his family about being "terminally ill," giving them a breast cancer and brain tumor diagnosis. "It was all a lie," he slammed. The 36-year-old further claimed that his mother, Tish Cyrus, confronted the "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" actress for her lies. However, due to the humiliation suffered, Song never associated publicly with his family. "Thanks for reminding me of another scenario where I was a great, loving person and someone did me wrong for no reason," he added. Trace continued his outburst online, this time accusing Song of faking an abortion. "Oh, she also faked an abortion with fake blood covering the bathroom floor," he penned. The Metro Station guitarist recalled he and Tish took Song to the hospital, where "all the lies started unraveling and [they] realized it was fake." Trace then took to his Instagram Stories to give an update on when things with his ex-girlfriend finally came to an end. He explained that the "Wendy Wu" actress visited him after allegedly lying about "the best surgeon in Chicago" removing her tumor. Calling it the "funniest part," Trace claimed he embarrassed Song, writing: "She didn't realize we were catching on to her lies. So when she showed up to my house with a bandage on her head claiming she just got out of surgery I ripped it off exposing no surgery had been done." Per Page Six, the Cyrus sibling concluded his rant, calling his ex-girlfriend's actions "proof of how f–ked in the head child stars are." He then expressed hope that Song is doing better mentally. Trace's post wasn't well-received by fans online, who believed he was trying to cause an unnecessary stir. "She's been in a new relationship for years, and this loser is still talking about her like we're supposed to care. Move on horse face @TraceCyrus," this user on X blasted. Another fan urged, "Ummmmm…. Leave Brenda Song alone, you weirdo," while a third comment read, "He's just mad that Brenda is in a happy marriage and has a successful career while he's a flop." This fan theorized, "2012 breakup. Trace [is] clearly hurting for money. Sorry Metro Station didn't work out." Other branded the "Prescriptions" singer for being "bitter" and a "misogynist." Trace and Song's relationship dates back to 2010 after they went public, following his breakup with Demi Lovato. A year after their debut, the former couple announced their engagement in an October 2011 tweet by the guitarist. However, they broke it off less than a year later. The ex-lovers continued to date on and off for six more years before finally going their separate ways in February 2018. US Weekly reports that Trace released a track named after Song that detailed the breakup. The "Running Point" actress has since moved on with fellow actor Macaulay Culkin, to whom she is engaged. Together they have two sons, Dakota, 4, and Carson, 2. Trace's outburst at Song comes just days after he publicly attacked his father, Billy Ray Cyrus. In a disturbing Instagram post, the aggrieved son labeled the country artist "evil" and "pathetic." The music artist slammed his father for being "so hungry for fame," expressing frustration that Billy chose the spotlight over their family. Trace was particularly offended that the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer flew to Italy with Elizabeth Hurley. He alleged that Billy skipped out on his maternal grandmother's funeral in LA to vacation with his new girlfriend. "You're the lamest man to ever walk planet earth," Trace wrote of his dad.

Trace Cyrus Attacks 'Pathetic' Billy Ray Cyrus Online: 'So Hungry For Fame'
has unleashed a furious attack on his father, , calling him "evil" and "pathetic" in a blistering Instagram post on Tuesday. The 36-year-old music artist didn't hold back, accusing the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer of being "hungry for fame" and of prioritizing his own public image over family. Trace Cyrus specifically criticized his father for not attending the funeral of his grandmother, despite recently traveling to Italy with girlfriend The post comes five months after Trace had pleaded for Billy Ray to seek help following what he called a "trainwreck" performance at Trump's inauguration in January. 'This man is so hungry for fame it's pathetic,' Trace began in his latest post, clearly frustrated by his father's recent actions. He later recounted how his father flew to Italy for a fashion show, but couldn't make the trip to Los Angeles for the funeral of Trace's maternal grandmother, who had passed away. 'He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammie's funeral while he was still married to my mom,' Trace wrote, referring to his mother, . 'Even after his daughter got him a 60k private jet like he demanded, he still didn't come, even after the plane was paid for.' Trace's anger didn't stop there. He continued to call his father 'the lamest man to ever walk planet earth,' expressing deep embarrassment for ever having considered him a role model. 'The best thing to come from your downfall is it made me go into beast mode. I refuse to be a washed-up, delusional, evil person when I'm old like you. Christ is King. Get right with God. You need it,' Trace concluded. In a follow-up, Trace continued to criticize his father's appearance, writing, 'Also why does he think that homeless hairstyle looks good? So weird.' Though the comments on the Instagram post were seemingly disabled, Trace shared a screenshot on his Instagram Stories of a follower's comment before it was removed. The follower wrote, 'Seems like a cry for help from a son that desperately needs attention from his father. Bullying him isn't the answer btw.' Trace, however, shot back, explaining that he had "surpassed" his father in many ways and had no desire to ever speak to him again. 'I'm past the point of even caring if I ever speak to him again,' Trace said. 'I've surpassed him in every metric as a man on this planet. There's nothing left to learn from him except from his mistakes. I had hope at one point, but I'm convinced he's finally a lost cause.' Towards the end of his response, Trace made it clear that he planned to continue thriving and, as the oldest son in the family, to carry on the Cyrus legacy. 'The Cyrus last name will continue through me and my many children I plan to have,' he wrote. 'I will raise them the right way and be a part of their life no matter what the circumstances are.' Billy Ray Cyrus has had a tumultuous relationship with his children, having been married three times and fathered six kids. Trace is one of Billy's children from his marriage to Tish Cyrus, who also gave birth to Miley, Noah, and Braison. Billy is also the father of Brandi and Trace from his marriage to Tish, and Christopher from his previous relationship with Kristen Luckey. The father-son relationship between Billy Ray and Trace has been strained for some time, especially after Billy's controversial performance at the Liberty Ball during Trump's inauguration in January. Billy Ray's performance, plagued by technical issues, was heavily criticized, prompting Trace to urge his father to get help. 'Pappy is looking down on you with such disappointment,' Trace claimed in a January Instagram Stories. 'You should be ashamed of yourself. I will always love you, but I no longer respect you as a man. Everyone close to you is terrified to tell you how they really feel. I'm not. Get help.' It's clear that the rift between Billy Ray and Trace continues to grow, with Trace now making it clear that he's done trying to repair the relationship, focusing instead on his own growth and future.
