Millennials have been left seriously baffled after a clip of a pretty famous Disney star went viral online and Gen Z seem to have absolutely no idea who she is.

The 36-year-old actress in question recently appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show during Thursday's airing (13 March) with the official chat show X account posting a clip of her walking down a hallway while a crowd cheered her on as she entered the set.

While the star may have first burst onto the scene after starring in the hit Disney Channel sitcom, she's since gone on to star in a number of box-office smashes including; The Social Network (2010), Changeland (2019) and, most recently, The Last Showgirl (2024) alongside the legendary Pamela Anderson.

The actress in question is none other than Brenda Song who is also in a relationship and shares a child with fellow Hollywood star, Macaulay Culkin.

After spotting Song in a promo view for The Jennifer Hudson Show, it's clear not everyone was aware of her status as one of Disney Channel's most beloved characters - none other than the London Tipton on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.

The show in question went on to launch the careers of Ashley Tisdale as well as twins Dylan and Cole Sprouse.

Take a look at the clip here:

One X user asked: "Who is this lady?"

"Not to be rude, but who is she?" wondered a second, while a third quite unnecessarily hit out: "I have no idea who this is and this video just ruined my day."

A fourth chimed in: "I don’t know who she is but I love her personality."

"I know her as Macaulay Culkin's wife," admitted a fifth before adding: "But apparently she's an actress from these comments."

Unsurprisingly, it didn't take long for those brought up on The Suite Life of Zack & Cody to rush to the comments to share their reactions - and they clearly refused to hold back.

"Google it dumb*ss," quipped one fan, while a second piped up: "Today kids are so annoying y'all don’t know sh*t omg."

A third theorised: "You’re either too young or too old."

Song has since gone on to star in a number of box-office smash-hits as well as a number of fan-favourite series (Disney)

"She played the character London Timpton in a Disney show for several seasons. She’s kinda iconic," explained a fourth, while someone else gushed: "Y’all should’ve rolled out the red carpet for this one if I do say so myself."

"Go off Ms Tipton!" echoed another, while a final X user added: "Childhood icon and still serving."

You can say that again!
