Vanessa Hudgens Emailed Nude Photo to Nickelodeon’s Drake Bell

Authored by Scott Goldberg on September 12, 2007 - 11:53am.
 Getting a nude photo from Vanessa Hudgens would be traumatic!From obscurity to infamy in a flash, you’d think it would be tough to make a name for yourself the same week of Britney’s VMA “performance,” but Vanessa Hudgens has done just that with the breaking news of a nude photo that had surfaced.  The actress of High School Musical fame acknowledged the photos and apologized for them through a representative who said the nude pic "was taken privately. It is a personal matter and it is unfortunate that this has become public."

 

She also apologized herself in a statement last Friday, saying she was "embarrassed over the situation and regret(s) having ever taken these photos."

 

Now People Magazine reports that Hudgens has a history of emailing her provocative photos, having once sent them to Nickelodeon’s Drake Bell.  Jill Fritzo, Bell’s representative, apparently denies that her client had ever received the photos. (Side note: If he did receive them…well…not much more you can say for Drake other than, “Nice dude.  Seriously.  Nice.”)

 

Of note in the controversy is that Disney is currently in negotiations with the cast of High School Musical for a third installment in the movie series.  The company released a statement saying, "Vanessa has apologized for what was obviously a lapse in judgment.  We hope she's learned a valuable lesson."

 

In the school of negotiation theory, one might say that Disney has quite the upper hand in the contract talks now that one of its biggest stars is making up lots of ground on other controversial Hollywood ladies like Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Nicole Richie.

 

But Hudgens shouldn’t worry for the state of her career.  So what if High School Musical might become a thing of the past?  Remember, there’s always reality TV!

hey

hey i love you and you very beutaful but you still shouldn´t of done it !!!!!!!

Maybe if they see enough

Maybe if they see enough gorgeous young women like this naked, Americans will stop being prudes? I think it's tragic that there are people who would hold this against her and that it might even hurt her career. I really dislike people who think sexuality is some kind of evil, but conveniently, they have already given themselves the most devious torture anyone could come up with---their whole life any time they feel horny, they feel guilty. The saddest thing is though, that they inflict this idiocy on their children. I only hope media images can help them chill out before it messes them up as much as it has warped previous generations.

The point is that she was a

The point is that she was a sixteen year old girl who was hoping to get laid by some co-star; not exactly a role model for the young girls that are her main audience. This has nothing to do with American puritanical taste. She can continue her career as the next Lindsay Lohan for all the guys to ogle and wish to have sex with; just not be a role model for young girls. Disney has a brand to protect and they can easily find a replacement as it is the series that is popular not some individual teenage star. Remember porno stars have to prove they are 18 years old before they can take their clothes-off; she was 16 when the pictures were taken. Young girls should think first so they are not sorry later, especially if you are a role model. I see Joe Francis wants her now for "Girls Gone Wild", how appropriate. I am sure the slut masters of Hollywood will find many roles for a young star who enjoys taking her clothes-off; I imagine she will go a lot further to please them. Just another starlet who thinks everything she sees in Hollywood is an example for the entire USA. Where are her parents???????

Drake has nothing to do with the nude pictures.

I dont understand why 18 year old high school musical sentation 'vanessa Hudgens' would pull 21 year old Nickelodeon star 'drake bell' into this? What will it achieve? and also i would LOVE to know why Zac Efron Is not talking to Drake Bell who he has known all his life. just because hes precious little girlfriend states that she sent the pictures to drake. even if she DID send them to drake. one- why would he accept and air them? and two- why is zac angry with drake when his girlfriend is the one taking nude pictures and emailing them out to other celebrities! its unbeleivable. and i think that vanessa was very stupid and has learned her lesson. so why can't they just leave it now? i mean alot of teens are like that. looking for love. they really dont know any better they are still very young! and where are the parents?

i really love drake bell!

hi people, web viewers and drake bell if you read this i am a really big fan of drake and josh even though i'm only 10. when i heard that venessa hudgens was sending photos to drake bell i didn't beleive them i mean how stupid drka e bell is 3 years older than her. i think she was really stupid and she shouldn't be in high school musical 3. NO OFFENCE VANESSA! i love drake bell and his music and i think that vannessa does too. but she went to far! bye from sim1

Drake did not do it!

I know for a fact drake did not do it. and if she DID send them to drake why has zac fell out with drake who he has known all his life? if his girlfriend is sending out nude pictures to other guys? Anyway why would drake broadcast vanessa on the internet. I know drake and he really isnt like that.! so i dont have the faintest idea why 18 year old High school musical sensation would pull 21 year old nickelodeon -drake and josh star into this? its hard to beleive!

hey

hey whats up drake you are the best you don't need that vanessa she is vey crazy. The reason she loves you cuz she wants to mess with you
