And as a teenage girl, she even has the embarrassing dad to boot. Last Wednesday it seems Vanessa Hudgens made it known she wants to spread her wings a little bit in her own pad and spent several hours house hunting in the Hollywood Hills. The 19 year old High School Musical star looked at about five homes, one being listed at $1.6 million, but most in the 2 million dollar range. Later that day, she headed to the gym with good ol’ Dad, who most would consider Daddy dearest as their best bodyguard, but Dad got a little out of hand and splashed some water on an unsuspecting photographer. As you can see, Vanessa was more than a little *chagrined* and yelled “Dad!” at him for totally embarrassing her publicly. Perhaps this is because she’d prefer to embarrass herself publicly as she seems to be well known to do. But yup, this girl has it all covered and I guess we now know the formula to Hollywood success – be a trampy teenager, create some nude pictures and pretend they got accidentally distributed, wait for Disney to call back (and they do), and then buy your 2 million dollar home. But throw in a good ol’ embarrassing Dad moment once in a while so you still look kinda *real*. Gag.

Could it be TRUE? Have our favorite *puke* star-crossed lovers have found their way back to each other? Here we have Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron, ‘former’ high school sweethearts, hanging out on Saturday having some fun at the gas station after they spent the day together. Zac is getting pumped at the pumps showing off his pretty, shiny new set of wheels. The ‘High School Musical’ pair seemed a little surprised to run into not only the paparazzi at the gas station, but to meet actor Peter Greene on the forecourt. After getting pumped, they spent the afternoon at a friend’s house. So…what’s the dealio here? As far as we knew Zac gave her the turf shortly after her pics came out. Probably cuz they were you know, for that guy, what was his name? I’ll just call him ‘not Zac Efron’. So are they on again, or just doing the very mature ‘just friends’ thing. Don’t know, I really don’t think ‘mature’ is a word in Hudgens’s vocab, but it will be interesting to see how this plays out.

I guess it’s not enough that George Clooney’s GF Sarah Larson is you know, George Clooney’s girlfriend as far as getting fame is concerned. I mean, that’d be just about enough! But she’s on the fast track to get her name a little more noticed since people have been talking about her and George in the motorcycle accident last weekend. Dare we say she’s pulling a Vanessa Hudgens? Hmmm… Yup, some photos have turned up that show Sarah in some very provocative poses with a friend during a promotional modeling stint in Amsterdam two years ago. Maybe she doesn’t quite get the big picture. Georgey boy is not exactly with her because she’ll be up for a Nobel prize or Best Actress statue anytime soon. She’s a former cocktail waitress from Vegas that made her dabloons by wearing practically nothing and she met George at an Ocean’s 13 premiere party at the hotel she works at. Oh, and she’s a former Fear Factor contestant. Yup, that’s right, you have to know that anyone that would eat horse’s butt for money is missing some brain activity. So, my thoughts are, you can put out all the racy lesbo pictures that you want. Sarah Larson, T minus 15 and counting, your splash in the spotlight is almost over and my guess is this little frolic with George is a time limited offer as well. Get it while you can!!

Here you are seeing Vanessa Hudgens taking some time out with her mom for a little coffee run. Aren’t they just too cute? They stopped here at The Coffee Bean before heading to a recording studio on Friday. Vanessa enjoyed some paps time with her mom as she waited for her coffee, and mom got right into it with the standard mom peck on the cheek pose. Vanessa was also spotted texting on her Apple iPhone at the same time. So cute, our little ‘High School Musical Star’ is learning how to get some decent exposure while NOT being indecently exposed. Huh. I wonder if mom knows about THAT one yet. Or I wonder if Mama H. has clued in to the fact that Vanessa is not about to be Mrs. Efron anytime soon. Zac Efron as the future son-in-law – dream shattered. Yup, it would take me a while to get over that one too.

Someone needs to tell this girl that her claim-to-fame tactics pretty much suck and are just making us all a little green. At this point she has earned the title of ‘the word that rhymes with cramp’. We talked about her nudey shots that slipped out onto the Internet earlier. That didn’t seem to be enough for her. A video has since surfaced that is some kind of porno, Santa strip tease thing involving a mistletoe thong and pasties on top, that was reportedly sent to Drake Bell. Oh, and that’s not all, she was also saying something about Santa going up her chimney because she’s been a very good girl, or something. Ugh, hang on, need to barf… ok I’m good. Her latest is yet another slip with some Internet shots involving next to lewd lesbionic activity with one of her friends. Pretty sure she’s not a lesbian, so all of it is just a really sad cry for attention which I am sure is why Disney hasn’t done much about it (that we’ve heard). Yup that’s right, maybe ignoring the little pretend lesbian naked girl will just make her go away. *sigh*

On Wednesday Vanessa Hudgens was spotted going to a late afternoon workout with a friend and her younger sister. You may recall that this “High School Musical” star is one and the same girl that ‘accidentally’ leaked some naughty pics out to the National Enquirer and the Internet just a few short days ago. Vanessa and her following spent about a half hour at the gym before they called it a day. So yes, the girl DOES need to work to maintain that figure, just not TOO hard.
