Fans need to stop mixing up Brenda Song with Jeannie Mai 

Are you still confusing Brenda Song for Jeannie Mai? 

Despite their very distinct and impressive careers and personalities, it’s almost frustrating to see fans still mixing up Brenda Song with Jeannie Mai. 

And it’s time we set the records straight. 

Brenda Song and Jeannie Mai have two separate careers and lives

Even if you’re not a millennial, you’ve got to know Brenda from Disney Channel classics like ‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody’ and ‘The Suite Life on Deck’. 

Jeannie Mai on the other hand built up her empire from a celebrity makeup artist to a trend-setting fashion expert and a television personality. 

While Brenda was born to Thai parents, Jeannie is of Chinese and Vietnamese heritage. 

The ‘Secret Obsession’ star has several acting credits to her name including voicing ‘Princess Akemi’ in the TV show ‘Blue Eye Samurai’, ‘Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior’, and ‘Love Accidentally’ 

This is distinct to Jeannie’s career hosting different shows including the 2022 and 2023 Miss Universe Pageants, ‘Holey Moley’, and ‘America’s Test Kitchen: The Next Generation’. 

Finally, personality-wise, Brenda’s reserved demeanor contrasts with the ‘Real Talk’ co-hosts lively and life-of-the-personality vibes. 

Understandably, fans mix the two thanks to their Asian ancestry and a couple of physical similarities. But it’s also important to respect and celebrate the individual accomplishments and identities of these remarkable women. 

Confusing them is a little disrespectful and unfair to them for all the dedication and hard work they’ve put into their respective careers. 

Let’s give them their flowers for all they do to entertain us.
