Brenda Song recently got candid and opened up about why her kids don’t like her dressing up for events.
For those who don’t know, Song, who has been dating Macaulay Culkin since 2017, welcomed two sons, Dakota (born 2021) and Dakota (born 2022), with him. The couple, who met on the set of their 2019 film Changeland, announced their engagement in 2022.
During a conversation with Entertainment tonight at the premiere of her show Running Point season 2, the 38-year-old American actress said her children don’t want her to show up because they are afraid she will leave them.
She told the outlet that when Dakota and Carson see her going out in full glam, they say, “No, don’t leave.”
“As soon as they see me dressed up, they cry because they know we are leaving. Otherwise I usually wear pajamas,” says the Secret obsession star revealed.
Song admitted that she had trouble letting them home because they had seen their parents getting ready for the event and they said, “Oh mom, don’t go!” ”
It is pertinent to mention that Brenda Song shares the screen with Kate Hudson, Drew Tarver, Scott McArthur, Chet Hanks, Jay Ellis and others in Running point season 2, which is about “a reformed party girl” who “must prove herself as a businesswoman when she is unexpectedly put in charge of her family’s professional basketball team.”
Running point season 2 is scheduled to air on Netflix on April 23, 2026. Watch the trailer here.
