Brenda Song says Disney blocked her audition for a Clint Eastwood movie
Brenda Song first came into prominence on the hit Disney Channel show The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, and while it launched her career it also hindered her from other roles. The 37-year-old actress attended the Bentonville Film Festival in Bentonville, Arkansas over the weekend, where she received the Variety Virtuoso Award. She revealed during her acceptance speech that she was trying to branch out into more adult roles while still on Suite Life, but Disney wouldn't allow it. One of those movies was director/star Clint Eastwood 's 2008 film Gran Torino, but the Mouse House wouldn't even let her audition for the role. She ultimately did break out from Disney in 2010's The Social Network, though she added that was another role she had to fight for. 'The character had an intended sexual assault scene, so Disney nixed it. And I was very upset but I was like, "Okay, I guess it didn't work out,"' she admitted, after recently breaking her silence over accusations from ex Trace Cyrus. When the role for Christy in The Social Network came along, she went straight to the top, approaching Disney Branded Television COO Gary Marsh with a plea. 'I was just like, "I am an actor. When you hired me, I was not a hotel heiress. If I have ever done anything in my personal life to ever draw bad attention to your company, I understand,"' she began. She added, '"But this is the last season of the show, and this is the opportunity of a lifetime."' And I was so fortunate, they were so supportive.' 'They allowed me to do this film that truly changed my life,' Song admitted of her role in The Social Network. While Song continued to branch out as an actress, she still kept working quite regularly with Disney. She reprised her role as hotel heiress London Tipton on The Suite Life On Deck, which followed Zack and Cody (Dylan and Cole Sprouse) on a study abroad program aboard a cruise ship. Song also opened up about breaking through in Hollywood at a time where there was not as much representation for Asian artists like herself. 'That was the tricky thing growing up, being an Asian-American actress in Hollywood,' Song admitted. 'I was just like, "I am an actor. When you hired me, I was not a hotel heiress. If I have ever done anything in my personal life to ever draw bad attention to your company, I understand,"' she began 'Like if you weren't Jackie Chan or Jet Li — I'm not an Asian man — it was really hard. But I was fortunate to have actors like Ming-Na Wen, Michelle Yeoh and Lucy Liu, who really inspired me,' she added. She said she worked with Wen when she was around eight years old, adding, 'I'm so grateful because she was so encouraging, so kind and just so supportive.' The actress also singled out another great role model for her, Night Court star Richard Moll, who she worked with on the Nickelodeon series 100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd. 'I remember being so star-struck because he was a very, very large man and I was so intimidated. And he was so kind and so gentle. I feel like that was my first kind of long-term project. So that was really special,' she said of Moll.

Country Legend's Son Slams Jason Aldean's Controversial Song: 'Trash for Real'
Country Legend's Son Slams Jason Aldean's Controversial Song: 'Trash for Real' originally appeared on Parade. Billy Ray Cyrus can't seem to stay out of the headlines this week — and this time, it's not even about him. His son, Trace Cyrus, is making waves of his own after publicly slamming country star Jason Aldean. And let's just say, he didn't hold back. Trace, 36, has followed in his father's musical footsteps, though his sound leans more pop punk than country. He's never been shy about sharing his opinions — and on Sunday, June 22, he took to Instagram to take aim at Aldean's 2023 controversial track, 'Try That in a Small Town.' 'Guys, I was just sitting in my kitchen and this stupid song came on the radio,' Trace said in a video, according to Penn Live. 'Remember this went viral? And everyone knows, like I'm as patriotic as it gets. I love Trump and American and all that but listen to how stupid this is,' he continued, 'Like, this is what's on the radio, and the bad song that I been talking about all night, like no one is really listening to.' He then played Aldean's song for the camera, mocking the lyrics. 'OK, bro, great job. You wrote a song, brother. Wow. Congratulations. Claps for you.' Trace went on to suggest that instead of Aldean, radio stations should play his own track, 'On the Run.' 'Like 95.5, like replace that song right now with 'On the Run,' because that song is trash for real,' he explained. Despite his strong words, Trace insisted he wasn't trying to tear Aldean down. 'I'm not trying to like completely destroy Jason Aldean's soul right now but no one wants to hear that on the radio,' he said. 'They are still putting this on country radio and nobody wants to hear it.' He also took the moment to criticize Aldean's music video, pointing out that the country singer shut down Columbia's town square to shoot it — while Trace shot his own video using an iPhone. 'I literally had my girl shoot my video on my iPhone and then I edited it myself and my video is cooler than his stupid video.' Aldean's song and video caused backlash after its release for featuring protest clips and being filmed at a site linked to a 1927 lynching, which some say gives it threatening and racially charged undertones. Following the criticism, Aldean pushed back against accusations that his song was "pro-lynching." On X, he wrote, 'There is not a single lyric in the song that references race or points to it. "Try That In A Small Town," for me, refers to the feeling of a community that I had growing up, where we took care of our neighbors, regardless of differences of background or belief.' Although Aldean previously defended the song, he has not responded to Trace's recent comments. Country Legend's Son Slams Jason Aldean's Controversial Song: 'Trash for Real' first appeared on Parade on Jun 24, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 24, 2025, where it first appeared.

Brenda Song breaks silence after ex Trace Cyrus accuses her of faking cancer and pregnancies
Brenda Song shared a heartwarming Instagram tribute just days after ex-boyfriend Trace Cyrus unleashed a shocking series of accusations against her. Trace, 36—the son of Billy Ray Cyrus and older brother of pop superstar Miley Cyrus, 32— made incendiary claims about his relationship with the Suite Life of Zack & Cody actress, 37, in a string of Instagram posts last week. The musician dated Song on and off from 2010 to 2017, and didn't hold back in his allegations. Among the most serious claims: that Song had stolen from him, faked a pregnancy, and even lied about having terminal breast cancer and a brain tumor. But on Wednesday, Song appeared to sidestep the drama entirely, taking to social media to celebrate her anniversary with fiancé Macaulay Culkin. The pair got engaged in January 2022 and share two children together—Dakota, 4, and Carson, 2. '8 years and there is still no one who makes me laugh or smile like the way you do,' Song captioned a photo of the couple. 'No one who makes me feel more seen, heard or loved.' She added: 'My partner in crime, my adventure partner, my best friend, my baby daddy, my favorite everything- thank you 'To be loved by you is the greatest privilege. Happy anniversary. I love you.' Culkin, 44, didn't ignore the special day either. He posted a quirky beachside photo series of Song getting closer to the camera with each frame. 'Happy anniversary, babe. Thank you for always coming towards me. You never run away,' he wrote in the caption, a subtle nod to their rock-solid bond despite the drama swirling around them. In Trace's shocking social media rant, he claimed Song 'stole thousands of dollars for me and fake multiple pregnancies lied about being terminally ill to make my family and I think that she had breast cancer and a brain tumor.' Trace, who has more than 689,000 followers on the social media platform, continued that 'it was all a lie.' Trace said that Song 'was humiliated to ever show her face around my family again once we figured it out and my mom confronted her and called her out on all of it.' Trace said that it had been 'another scenario where '[he] was a great loving person and someone did me wrong for no reason.' He added of Song: 'Oh, she also faked an abortion with fake blood covering the bathroom floor in my mom and I register her to the OB/GYN - that's when all the lies started unraveling and we realized it was fake.' Trace previously said of the relationship in a February 2018 Instagram post: 'I'm extremely happy for her. 'She inspired me to write countless songs and was such an important part of my life. I will always cherish songs I have … to remind me of our crazy 7 years together. ' Trace later said on Instagram Stories that Song claimed she got the brain tumor removed by the 'best surgeon in Chicago.' Trace added: '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. Trace said she 'ripped it off exposing no surgery had been done.' In a later post, Trace said he wasn't going to speak to reporters about his posts about Song; and if he was asked why he was speaking out now, it was because he 'felt like it.' Trace also encouraged people to follow his Instagram account before Friday morning, as he would be taking it private at that point.

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.
