In a recent interview Vanessa Hudgens said that she would love to have a cameo in the upcoming movie “Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventures” both being executive produced by and starring Disney’s Ashley Tisdale, but from the interview below it sounds like Vanessa is super busy promoting her own movies right now and may not have time to appear in A.Tis’ “Fabulous Adventures.”

Although, the good news is that Ashley spilled the beans that there IS a cameo appearance from one of the stars of “High School Musical,” she just wont let us know who it is!

Any guesses?

There is something to be said about teen flicks and something else altogether to be said about Musical, teen flicks. I am not much of a musical type person and the movies I tend to like lean more towards serious and heartfelt, but I have to admit this is the type of movie that manages to squeeze in jingle-type songs, famous young actors and a gazillion morals all into less than 2 hours. It is quite impressive.I believe one of the reasons teen movies are suitable for…well, teens, is because there is always some hot young thing to drool over in order to snag their attention, and just in case you did not read the blurb before you watched it, the movie recaps everything under the sun that you could possibly want your kids to know – always be yourself, stand up for what you believe in, support your friends etc.High School Musical is all about Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), the young basketball captain and Gabriella Montez (Vanessa Anne Hudgens), the child Einstein. On New Year’s Eve the two are forced to sing together but manage to exchange phone numbers afterwards. When the school year starts Troy is surprised to discover that Gabriella is a new student at his school in Albequerque, New Mexico. The drama teacher, Ms. Darbus announces auditions for the upcoming Musical and Gabriella and Troy decide not to audition. Gabriella thinks she needs to focus on her studies and Troy thinks while Gabriella thinks his singing is good, his showerhead is the only thing that is very impressed with it.As school life goes on, Troy tries to focus on his basketball and Gabriella on her science club but I guess it is not that easy because they both decide to admit their interest in singing and start to consider auditioning for the Musical. Troy’s friend Chad is not too impressed with Troy admitting to such a feminine tendency such as singing and uses the basketball team to bully him into forgetting the whole thing. Meanwhile others around the school take Troy’s example and admitting to inner-most desires such as cooking, or dancing, instrument playing and more.Troy and Gabriella, after a few embarrassing moments, audition for the musical. They quickly find out that they are being called back for a second audition. The basketball team needs Troy to win and the Decathlon team (Science club) needs Gabriella to win. The two teams devise a plan to separate Troy and Gabriella and ensure they do not go for the callback audition and everything goes down hill from there. Gabriella gets angry with Troy, Troy gets angry with the team and his dad, the Decathlon and the Basketball team feel bad about what they have done and no one is happy. So while this movie is still young and undeveloped in terms of acting abilities (and that is only my opinion of course), it still manages to pass on a few messages. Be yourself no matter what. Stand up for yourself and for what you want. Be confident and true to yourself. Support your friends in what they want instead of trying to fit them into your own molds of what they should be like. Accept the fact that people are different. Be honest, lying will catch up and bite you on the ass. There is no end to the things you can learn from a movie.

Your life would probably mean nothing if you were not in contact with your televisions lately. Disney’s have been creating the wonderful TV movie High School Musical that really catches the attention of the world’s teens. Well for those that do not really have time viewing their televisions here is your chance.To catch you up, it all started with a soundtrack that started low on Billboard charts of late January at No. 143 but in February, it jumped into the top 10 and almost ended up to No. 1 3 weeks ago. The soundtrack reached astounding platinum in music recording.The casts principally composed of unheard actors and actresses. Numerous live journals were created and decorated an undying fondness to Zac Efron who plays Troy, the basketball star with an adorable voice who, along with Gabriella, a nerd who can reach high-pitched notes and who looks for someone who will love her. She is the lead role in East High’s musical entitled Twinkle Town.High School Musical’s songs sound not really good or groundbreaking to everyone. It’s not that acceptable unlike other soundtracks that bear in mind to many. But it’s much unmerited to compare the synth-heavy pop ballads of High School Musical to show tunes. The songs are being compared to the one with Romeo and Juliet. East High School is a public school that has funding to stage a prolific and melodic musical. Its science club has a roof garden. Most of its student population are said to be clean-cut teens that refer each others parents as Mr. or Mrs. Sharpay the bitch and can be compared to Paris Hilton can always toss at someone to evaporate on her way. East High’s students are so devoid of sexual tension that Sharpay and Ryan do not consider weird. They are brother and sister who is auditioning for lead roles in a love story Troy and Gabriella also auditioned.Plenty of American teens shows grip on social hierarchy without enjoying the attractiveness of High School Musical. Mostly, they are not watching High School Musical anymore because they are so taken with its story yet High School Musical is partly successful.HSM has profited from Disney’s astuteness in marketing. The channel started promoting and directing the fans to its website, where they could download the movie’s lyrics and can even order it online. 1.2 million visitors flooded the website and Radio Disney almost playing the soundtracks on heavy rotation. It became the top selling album on Itunes and amazon. Disney also encourage repeat viewings by successive telecasts and offered free downloads and dance along features. This is not the only time that Disney Channel made its mark on teens. They are also accountable for the success of Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and more. High School Musical’s version of high school life is very alluring. From the timid lads and lasses becoming into a real and unique people that can overcome and face life’s reality is very admiring.
