For many Millennials and Gen Z'ers, the High School Musical films were appointment viewing, and the character of Sharpay played by Ashley Tisdale was one of the franchise's icons.
She was kind of the Cher Horowitz-meets-Regina George of her day, and with Tisdale's roster of other Disney hits like The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and Phineas and Ferb, she's basically Disney royalty.
And her daughter wants everyone to know it!
In a TikTok, Tisdale shared that her 4-year-old daughter Juniper is as obsessed with HSM as all the kids were back in the day. So much so that she's developed a habit of telling total strangers who her mom is.
Tisdale told her followers:
“I don't know what kind of karma this is, but Jupiter saw my niece in High School Musical the play last weekend."
"I think seeing my niece in the play, play me, has just changed her.”
High School Musical 2 has become a particular favorite of her daughter's, and the songs from the franchise are basically following them everywhere they go. It's playing in the house, it's on the car stereo. She can't get enough!
Unfortunately for Tisdale, her favorite song is also the one she hates the most—the lesser known track "Humuhumunukunukuapua’a," which Tisdale said she can't stand.
But that's got nothing on Juniper's other HSM-related habit.
"She screams out in public, 'I'm Sharpay's baby!' I literally can't."
"I just feel so embarrassed when I'm walking into a store."
Tisdale, of course, can't help but laugh, but admitted the whole thing's getting a little old.
"After, like, a good week straight of listening to the music again, it's like, okay, we're good. We don't need to watch this again!"
But you will, and you'll like it! Juniper says so!
On TikTok, Tisdale's fans found the whole thing as adorable and hilarious as she did.

Sharpay herself would surely be proud of the recognition!
