'We were underpaid and overworked': Brenda Song reflects on her time on Suite Life of Zack And Cody
The Suite Life of Zack And Cody star Brenda Song has reflected on her time on the set of the Disney Channel series.
Brenda Song felt "underpaid and overworked" on The Suite Life of Zack And Cody.
The 38-year-old actress rose to fame as hotel heiress London Tipton in the classic Disney Channel sitcom, and she has recalled a moment she passed out on set filming a scene in a hot tub, which broke and had heated to 250 degrees.
Appearing on former castmate Dylan Sprouse's Wildmen podcast, she said: “I remember just breathing really heavy, and my chest felt really hot.
"I just went, ‘Am I having a panic attack?’ And then all of a sudden I remember stars and, gone.
“I think the only thing that was hard about that time was I feel like we were underpaid and overworked.
"But Disney did give us a platform to be sitting here right now. So it’s very hard to complain about certain things.”
Brenda admitted some parts of working on the show are "black holes" for her now, and she doesn't "remember years of [her] life".
Reflecting on the issue of residuals, she added: "I look at that time and I was like, we paid them.
“I always say this about my time at Disney, is like, I know everybody has their own journey [because]… I always say, like, I have a boring tale… I had a lovely time.”
