Alyson Stoner has revealed how uncomfortable she was filming a certain scene for Disney's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

Speaking on social media, the actor - who was in the Disney show alongside Cole Sprouse and Dylan Sprouse in 2005 - revealed how the scene in question wasn't discussed when she auditioned for the role at the age of 12.

Speaking in the TikTok video, Stoner addresses her start as a childhood star on shows including Disney's Suite Life. Have a listen:

"So, writers and directors might decide to make your character do anything on the next episode, and it's assumed that you're going to agree to whatever is scripted," Stoner explained in the video.

"My first kiss and several of the times I experienced kissing all happened on camera. I remember on Suite Life on Disney, I'd already booked the role of Max and I'd filmed an episode.

"Well, a few weeks later, they wrote an episode where Max had to kiss both twins. Did I know that when I auditioned for the role of Max? No. Was I ready for that? No.

"I felt young and uncomfortable. I felt like, you know this is part of my job, I chose to act and audition for this project, it's only a character.

"So in that way I justified, like 'Okay I can have my kiss here and then I'll have my own separate first kiss at some point'."

Viewers of the TikTok video have sympathised with Stoner, as one commented: "My first kiss was a stage kiss - I sobbed for hours the night before we had to practice the kiss. I can't imagine if it had been on camera!"

Another added: "That's actually so messed up..."

"Growing up watching you, this is so disheartening that you had to experience these things. We love you and support you!" said a third.

And a fourth shared: "I'm not surprised that the best era of stars are the ones telling us the truth. They've always been the realest".

The video was shared with the caption: "Let's talk about my first kiss. #DearHollywood in the link in bye-oh [bio]."

Dear Hollywood is Stoner's own podcast that has promised to lay bare the 'dark' side of Hollywood and the showbiz industry - things she unfortunately experienced from starring in movies such as Cheaper by the Dozen and Step Up, as well as television series Drake & Josh and That's So Raven.
