Report: Disney Drops Vanessa Hudgens After Nude Pic ScandalAuthored by Jay Baage on October 17, 2007 - 2:40pm.
The Vanessa Hudgens nude photos that spread across the Internet like wildfire might be the end of her career at Disney after all. OK! Magazine reports today that the 18-year old actress will not be asked back for the third High School Musical film. We wondered last month if her days at the company were indeed numbered, which you can read about here.The nude pic scandal shows how sensitive Disney is about anything that might negatively impact the enormously popular High School Musical series, which now crosses nearly every one of the media giant’s areas of expertise and has a big effect on the company’s bottom line. “Disney finally decided that they don’t want her back,” an insider reveals to OK!. “They feel that as long as Zac Efron is in the movie, all will be fine. He’s the real star — the household name — and, most importantly, he comes without baggage.” According to OK!’s source, one of the Cheetah Girls — Adrienne Baillon, 23, or possibly 23-year-old Sabrina Bryan — will take Vanessa's place: “The producers think that after Dancing With the Stars, Sabrina will be more famous than Vanessa.” However, While OK! magazine stands by its report that the teen star has been dumped, a rep for Hudgens told Access Hollywood later in the day that it was not the case. “Totally untrue. It is an old rumor,” the rep told Access. In addition, a spokesperson for Disney told Access they are still in talks with the actress for the next chapter in the “HSM” franchise: “We are still in negotiations with all of the ‘High School Musical’ stars,” the spokesperson said.
