Singer and actress Ashley Tisdale is best known for her role in High School Musical and as the voice behind Candace Flynn in the popular animated series Phineas and Ferb. Recently, the actress revealed that though she is a part of the Disney channel show as a voice artist, her four-year-old daughter Jupiter has never watched a single episode of Phineas and Ferb. And there’s a good reason behind it.
At the Bush’s Bluey Baked Beans launch event at CAMP in New York City on Wednesday, May 14, the 39-year-old actress spoke with People and revealed that Jupiter is aware of the characters Phineas and Ferb. “I haven’t (watched the show with Jupiter). I mean, she’s seen (the characters) Phineas and Ferb.” Explaining the reason, Ashley added, “It might be a little bit more for the older age range.”
The actress further stated that her daughter knows that her mom is on the show, but she has not seen a full episode yet. “She knows that I’m on it, and she has seen that, but I haven’t shown her the new episodes,” Ashley said. While she might not have gotten a chance to watch the show yet, Jupiter did get a peek behind the scenes when Ashley took her to a recording studio last year.
FYI, a decade after Phineas and Ferb concluded in 2015, the beloved animated series is making a return. At New York’s Comic Con in October last year, the show’s makers announced its return to the screens once more. Phineas and Ferb’s fifth season is set to premiere on June 5, with new episodes airing on both Disney Channel and Disney XD and streaming on Disney+ the next day.
In the same conversation, Ashley expressed her excitement about the new episodes of Phineas and Ferb, especially because her character Candace is now 16. “The new episodes are amazing, and I’m so excited because my character finally has aged a little bit. She’s 16, and so I really can’t wait for everybody to see it. It’s one of those things where (creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff ‘Swampy’ Marsh) did not go far from the DNA of it, which is so great.”
Speaking of Ashley Tisdale, she and her husband, singer Christopher French welcomed their daughter Jupiter in March 2021 after seven years of marriage. Last year, in September, the couple welcomed their second daughter, whom they lovingly named Emerson.
