Brenda Song has shared her two cents on her gig in Running Point.
During her latest chat with PEOPLE Magazine, the acting sensation reflected on landing a role in the new Netflix series
Explaining that the project proved to be a “dream” project, she claimed that it was the collision of two of her passions.
The 38-year-old actress plays Ali Lee, a chief of staff, in the show in discussion.
She even admitted that the moment she heard the creative team behind the project, she was immediately sold.
“When I heard Mindy Kaling was doing an untitled basketball project starring Kate Hudson, I was like, ‘What do I need to do? Do I need to give blood to be a part of this show? This is my dream.'”
Reportedly, her journey as a “hardcore” fan began in 1996, the year Kobe Bryant was drafted to the team, and she hasn’t missed a beat since.
She addressed, “Kobe’s the reason that I became a hardcore Lakers fan, and for those 20 years, I watched 82 games a year, I listened to it on the radio.”
Conclusively, she said, “They had to put a monitor under the Suite Life bleachers so I could watch it, because I would need to know what the score was. I loved it so much.”
