Best Buddies with Vanessa Hudgens
Vanessa Hudgens pays a visit to Ocean Drive Magazine to promote the charity program Best Buddies on Friday in Miami Beach, Florida.
Best Buddies is a program that provides employment opportunities and one-to-one friendships for people with intellectual disabilities.
The 18-year-old High School Musical star and Best Buddies pal Pelayo Vigil shadowed an office assistant who works at Ocean Drive.
“I’m here today in Miami to support Best Buddies,” Vanessa told NBC6. “Best Buddies is an amazing organization that helps support people with mental disabilities. Today, it actually puts them in jobs, which is why I’m here at Ocean Drive. [Best Buddies] is an amazing program, you know. My manager is the person who actually developed it, and I found out about it and I thought it was an amazing organization. It’s really neat to reach out to people who are, like, fans, too. Just to be able to be a part of their lives is really neat.”
A Best Buddies gala and fundraiser, which will have a performance by Ciara, will be held Saturday night at Bicentennial Park.

***-vanessa-***, goodjob, couldnt have set it better myself and someone really needed to tell all those haters that but i dont think those pictures where actually for her boyfriends, that was just a rumor
vanessa is such a good person(:
i hearttt her
Soulja boyyy, like erica said, what is wrong with appearing at charity events to help the organization raise more money? And are you saying Britney is a model citizen because she HAS a charity? Did she have one when she was 18?? I would imagine they all start small, like appearances, before thy choose a cause near and dear to them.
Evelyn, #142…it’s good to vent once in awhile!
Have you guys seen the photo of Zac looking like a woman. It was crazy, I did not believe it. And all you fans of this website. Always sticking up for Jared. Ha look what you guys get a slap in the face by the person you were sticking up for. That is messed up. What he did to Zanessa. That is just cold. I will stick to my Vanessa Fan sites thank you very much. If you missed the picture click on the link below.
sorry here is the link

you know…it could be your screen. That happens to me. If I look at her picture at work, she looks really skinny. But when I look at her picture at home, she looks like she put on weight in some pictures. hmm…maybe because i have a wide screen LCD at home? But yeah…I saw these pics at work, and she looked skinny to me. As for the pics at home, she does look like it, especially pic #8 (then again, it could be the angle).

#141 people had the same vibes with Justin and Britney in pictures and videos and reports and songs and all this and those 2 were together ever since Mickey Mouse Club, but they didn’t work out either even though both of them believed they were going to be together forever. so see. anything can happen. we can only hope that they stay together for a long time, if not forever.

True, and you’re right, we don’t know what the future is going to hold for anyone, and I’m no expert on the Justin/Britney relationship but I do however remember that they were different from ‘Zanessa’ both with the fact that they seem to be a lot more for the attention then ‘Zanessa’ (who have said again and again that they don’t like to talk about their relationship) is and the fact that they didn’t seem to have this trust and loyalty that I see in Z and V, I could be wrong, like I said, I’m no expert on Justin and Britney but I do remember seeing articles about jealousy and cheating and stuff like that, not once have their been one about Z and V through the 2 years they have been together, well, let me correct that, not once have there been REAL articles about it.
Amazing she looks Gorgeous as always………..
Vanessa is gorgeous. She is very nice person.
Go Vanessa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
vanessa is the best person in the world
She looks fantastic! I’m so proud of her for choosing this type of charity work as well. I was just at a grocery store the other day, and someone with a disability was working there and I carried a conversation with her. I walked out feeling so happy for that person. She seemed happy working.
This is a great charity! You go Vanessa
vanessa is so great and she looks good in her outfit. its nice of what she is doing.
Hello to all of my angels and all Z & V supporters. It is a beautiful day and we have a great story on Vanessa.
I love the positive vibe that pulses through these threads.
I really hope someday the negative people wil open their eyes and see that the world is a much better place when you open your mind and see the glass half full.
Maybe you naysayers should do a little volunteering of your own. I am sure the emotional rewards you gain will help the negative attitude you have.
Our beautiful girl is doing a wonderful thing, I spent half a semester in high school volunteering at a school for handicapped pre=schooler’s, and the joy on their faces melts the heart.
And to those who feel she is milking it for the attention, I am sure Vanessa would gladly go without the press attention, but the organization asks to use her image to inspire others to join in the effort. All we see are a few poses, we never see the other things she does with the kids.
Keep up the great work Vanessa.
she’s the best!!
:DD i love her!
zvkg, I love the witty comebacks you have these days. You go girl!
Hi steph and Go Sox!
A little something for those of you missing Zac sightings (like me):
This past week, he has been at Santa Monica High School and the students have seen him there during lunch. His new movie “17″ will apparently be filmed there during winter break and the students will have a chance to be extras in the production.
Merry Christmas a little early!
I LOVE VANESSA ♥
I don’t honestly know why you people are obssessed with these people. My gosh get a life. The malls are open, go exercise, go to Disneyland. Just get up and find something productive to do!
ghj…that is great news. I live about 20 mins from Santa Monica!!! I may have to skip work one day and accidentally end up at the High School. I mean I could still definitely pass as a high schooler!!!

lol. yeah. But I think I pissed off someone. *shrug* Can’t help it, I’m disgusted with all these worry about zanessa’s relationship just because we haven’t seen any picture. *shakes head* Even though they’re not obligated to go outside and let the papz take picture of them together.

Ah zvkg, have fun shopping.
Don’t worry about the fly’s buzzing around this site. Flys have a short life span and are quickly forgotten. That or they are easily swatted. Enjoy your day.

Lucky. This is what sucks about living in an island. It’s hard to do road trip and go CA. The island is so boring, and it sucks going to the beach because it’s always raining now. 2 days ago, we even had lighting and thunder. (which is rare)
