Fans were excited to see Brenda Song starring in "Obsession" on Netflix, a thriller that releasing during summer 2019 and became a quick hit with 40 million views within four weeks of being released. Soon after, Song returned to television with "Dollface" on Hulu. In the show, which is about a young woman entering the world after a breakup, Song plays Madison Maxwell, former BFF of the show lead, played by Kat Dennings (via Teen Vogue).
"Dollface" is a fun comedy, which is definitely a genre Song says she feels most comfortable. "It's taken me almost 10 years from Disney to really feel like I found a niche for myself," she revealed to Teen Vogue. "At 31 I finally feel like I know what my strengths are, and I'm trying to steer into that. The thing is, people are like, 'Well, we know you from comedy, so you have to do something to change everyone's minds.' I was like, 'Why? This is what I love to do.'"
Outside of her career (which is booming!), the actress also made headlines after she gave birth to a new baby girl with boyfriend, fellow child star Macaulay Culkin. According to CNN, the baby, named Dakota Song Culkin (after Macaulay's late sister), was born April 5, 2021.
