Brenda Song graced the cover of Seventeen Magazine, the Malaysian edition of the popular glossy teenage magazine. The Wendy Wu star talked to Seventeen about acting, Asian-American stereotypes, her life and keeping her options open.

Brenda Song Song initially revealed she has been an actor since the age of six, and she knew from the moment she started that it was what she wanted to do for a living. “I love entertaining people and stepping into different characters and doing fun things,” she says.

Song stated while growing up, she rarely saw any Asian-American performers on television. If there was one, it would be a Jackie Chan, kung fu type. “[But] now you see people who are doing their own thing whether it be Lucy Liu or Zhang Ziyi.“  She also revealed to the magazine, she loves Angelia Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Matt Damon, and Russell Crowe, because of their talent to excel at every genre of acting. She is additionally amused that her personal theme song is “It’s a Hard-Knock Life”  and describes herself as “crazy”.
