MANILA, Philippines — Hollywood star Vanessa Hudgens is already engaged to American baseball star Cole Tucker, so at her Manila press conference yesterday, the press was surprised when before she sat down for an interview with TV host Boy Abunda, the first thing they saw on the screen flashing were clips of her and her ex-boyfriend Zac Efron in sweet moments from their Disney hit film series “High School Musical.”
It is quite understandable, though, since the Filipino-American singer-actress rose to fame and is still best-known for “High School Musical,” which she just happens to share with Zac.
The video presentation, however, also showed clips of some of Vanessa’s career highlights, including her hit Netflix film series “The Princess Switch” and solo performance from the Andrew Garfield-starrer “Tick, Tick… Boom!”
At the sit-down interview with Abunda, the TV host’s first question was if Vanessa does get tired of “High School Musical,” to which the star replied: “I mean it happened so long ago. But you know, new generations are born and the older brothers and sisters share to their younger brothers and sisters and it continues to live on. (Then), the kids were watching it, (now,) they have their own kids. So it’s just a crazy cycle. It just simply doesn’t get tired. It lives on and on and on and on!”
