Overview
- Ashley Tisdale published an essay in The Cut recounting how exclusionary dynamics and clique-like behavior led her to leave a celebrity mom network.
- She wrote that she felt 'frozen out' after seeing group hangouts on Instagram and ultimately texted the chat, 'This is too high school for me and I don’t want to take part in it anymore.'
- Coverage notes she no longer follows Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore on Instagram and still follows Meghan Trainor, though Tisdale did not name anyone in her account.
- TMZ reports Tisdale’s representative says the essay was not about Duff, Moore, or Trainor and denies any political angle, noting she is a registered Democrat.
- Outlets say representatives for the reportedly implicated stars have been asked for comment but had not responded as of the latest reports.
