Alexa PenaVega reveals why husband Carlos doesn’t appear on Big Time Rush’s new song with Lil Uzi Vert
Alexa PenaVega is trying to silence critics who spoke out about her husband Carlos PenaVega, 35, refusing to join his band Big Time Rush on the new Lil Uzi Vert song The Rush.
The Spy Kids actress, 36, explained on X (formerly Twitter) that the song does not align with her family’s values, so Carlos decided to postpone it.
“Hey friends, I wanted to jump over here to discuss something. We work super hard to protect our values and the things we believe in, especially when it comes to creating content that is primarily family-friendly or what you would consider ‘safe,'” Alexa wrote.
“Today a song was released with the BTR boys minus Carlos because it didn’t match his values.
She added, “Although Carlos was grateful for this opportunity, he graciously agreed to pass.”

Lil Uzi Vert, 29, released their new album Eternal Atake 2 on Friday, which features Carlos’ band as an artist on the song The Rush.
‘Unfortunately it was not listed properly and is currently listed as a BTR feature. No Kendall, Logan and James movie,” Alexa’s statement continued.
Carlos, Kendall Schmidt, Logan Henderson and James Maslow founded Big Time Rush for the Nickelodeon TV show of the same name, which ran from 2009 to 2013.
“As a woman who has watched Carlos navigate his values alone in an industry not set up for ‘family,’ I have at times been incredibly proud and heartbroken for him,” Alexa wrote.
‘This doesn’t put anyone down. We want to make those who follow us aware of the accident in a respectful way and let them know that this was something he was not part of. God bless,” she concluded.
Lest anyone think her husband didn’t fully agree with Alexa’s statement, he reshared it on his Instagram Stories.
“I love you my angel,” he wrote via Instagram Story on Friday. “Thank you for always having my back.”
In the song, Big Time Rush sings, “Hey, hey, you’re not Big Time Rush / Dude, you’re not Big Time Rush / We’re Big Time Rush/ We’re Big Time Rush.”
Lil Uzi Vert then sings, among other things: ‘I get fried, I’m high, huh / Your b***h tryna f**k (Yeah)’.

Carlos and Alexa met in a Bible study group and have been married for ten years. They share three children: sons Ocean, seven, and Kingston, four, and daughter Rio, two.
Earlier this year, the family faced tragedy after Alexa suffered a stillbirth of their fourth child, a daughter they wanted to name Indy.
