Singing Little Girl Represents All That is Wrong With America

You guys wanted to see a horrifying image of everything that is insidiously vapid and ideologically bankrupt about our country this afternoon, right? Oh good, because after the jump we have a YouTube video of a little girl, who is maybe six-years-old, singing the song "Fabulous" from High School Musical 2. In it the child gyrates and flashes her fancy threads and shrieks a lot. Its truly heinous nature is only amplified by the little note posted by the uploader: "So Disney encouraged kids to make their own video to one of four song clips from High School Musical. Jordyn chose fabulous, and made this clip. She has roughly 50 video song clips she is begging me to post, that I haven't had time to get to. So one down- 49 to go! ;-)" Watch and weep for our ruined nation after the jump. More »

Embarrassing Confessions

Why I Still Love (Fake) High School Drama

So the Times didn't like it. Whatever. I'm still DVR'ing the latest Disney Channel musical teenybomp crapfest Camp Rock because, well, I love that stuff. Yes. I am a (slightly shameful) fan of High School Musical and its silly sequel. As I hope you're well aware by now, I have a minor obsession with Gossip Girl. It's a slightly embarrassing truth: my tastes never evolved past fifteen. Well, OK, that's not exactly true. I mean I love the good, challenging stuff. I like weirdo avant garde plays and Terrence Malick movies and I love a good Frontline, but I also lurrrve Degrassi. I'm not exactly sure why some part of my brain still lingers in the dim, echoing halls of high school, but it does. And even though people make fun of me for it (I believe my esteemed boss's words were "ha, freak"), I think it's OK. More »

quote of the day

'If you have paparazzi, you know you’ve gotten somewhere'

That's Vanessa Hudgens, star of Disney's High School Musical, explaining to GQ how the entertainment industry works. Another truth: 19-year-old starlets sell copies of magazines for middle-aged men, particularly when packaged with these photographs and the headline High School Lolita. Incidentally, these photos will spread to fan sites frequented by Hudgens' main fan base, pre-pubescent girls, so passing on this wisdom to a new generation. And, before taking Hudgens' quote as the shallow babbling of a fame-drunk teenager, stop to think: it's also entirely true.

Drama Alert Ooooh, teen star cat fight that no one but me and a few twelve year olds care about: Vanessa Hudgens, the High School Musical starlet who takes [NSFW] nude photos for her gay fake boyfriend, is apparently furious that Ali Lohan, Lindsay's fame grubbing sister, wants a part in the upcoming feature film High School Musical 3: Senior Year (they're seniors in that one!!) She's worried that all the inevitable Lohan-focused drama will steal her spotlight. She sounds like Sharpay! (kill me) [Showbiz Spy]

Hot Vanessa Hudgens Lesbian Action

If by "hot" you mean "not even midly arousing" and by "lesbian" you mean "the tongue of the High School Musical co-star in slight proximity to the tongue of another woman." I've seen better girl-on-girl action in the pages of Foreign Policy, and, yes, I am talking about a debate between Jeane Kirkpatrick and Madeleine Albright over the role of the United Nations' Secretary General. DISAPPOINTING.

Vanessa Hudgens Lesbian Kissing Pictures [Egotastic]


"Following the appearance on the Web of a nude photo of Vanessa Hudgens, a source close to the situation tells PEOPLE that the 'High School Musical' actress once sent risqué photos of herself to Nickelodeon star Drake Bell. Hudgens had emailed photos to the 'Drake and Josh' actor a couple of years ago, before she was famous, the source says." [People]

Did High School Musical hottie Vanessa Hudgens snap nudie pix for her boyfriend, costar Zac Efron, which then leaked to the internet? We're going to go with "that's probs not her" and "why would you take nudie pix for a gay," but still, this naked girl sure looks like Vanessa Hudgens! [Fleshbot NSFW]

TV Watch's Rob Frydlewicz notices something sinister in monster Disney smash High School Musical 2: " However, one quizzical omission dawned on me as I watched. Despite its all-inclusive cast of characters (Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, mixed race, smart, dimwitted, overweight, jocks, even a kid with gay tendencies were all represented), where was the Asian-American kid?" Eh, you know how those kids are, Rob, he was probably studying quietly in the library. [TV Watch]
