Vanessa Hudgens - “Seventeen” February 2008
Vanessa Hudgens is the cover girl for the February 2008 issue Seventeen magazine.
Here are some great snippets from the High School Musical’s revealing interview:
How are you feeling about the [nude picture] scandal? I’m much better now. But truthfully I don’t like talking about it. It was something that was meant to be private, and even though it isn’t anymore, I’d still like to keep it as private as I can. It was very traumatic, and I am extremely upset it happened. I hope all my fans can learn from my mistake and make smart decisions. But I wouldn’t have been able to get through it if it wasn’t for my family, friends, and fans, who supported me all along the way.
Who told you the photos had been leaked? I found out from my manager. We heard some story was going to break in the tabloids, and I was like, What?!? A few days later, the picture came out while I was on vacation in Australia. Thank God, I wasn’t home–it would have sucked if I was at home. So I got to be away from L.A. for about a millisecond. But when I came back, it got kind of crazy.
How did you explain the situation to your mom? I was just open with her, and she was just so cute. She was like, “Well, everyone can be naked if they want to.” [Laughs] My parents are very supportive of me. And they know I’m a teenager, and yes, kids do stupid things sometimes. It’s very unfortunate because with the Internet these days, you don’t have a personal life. Nothing is private: Everyone knows everything, and they can find out everything about you. You’re not as safe as you think you are, and you have to be aware of the people you’re around.
It’s great that Zac stood by you through all this. To you, what’s the best thing about him? He always makes me happy. He literally knows exactly what to do to make me laugh.
Do you ever think about the future with Zac? No. It’s fun having a boyfriend. He’s a friend and a cute friend who you like. It’s nice. But only time will tell. I’m still young, and I have my girlfriends and I have my family. I think that it’s definitely important to have balance. I think girls can be sucked into the relationship and give too much. They like to be so into their boyfriends, you know? And you can’t do that, because you get too infatuated–and then you lose contact with your friends. It happens to a lot of girls.

I think that Vanessa is a great example of a girl standing up for what she did and facing it with postivity. This article shows her maturity i’m so happy that she is honest to her fans and making herself a prime example to young girls to learn form her mistakes and not do the same. well night Z and V supporters

#102 (don’t wanna even repost your ugly moniker) Does your momma know you are on these sites typing awful works like that? They should have thought of a better password for the parental controls cause it looks like you guessed it. Do something more productive like play with your barbie dolls that you got for xmas ok?

i totally agree girl!! =D
HAPPY NE W YEAR TO ALL OF YOU =)
I LOVE VANESSA! I AM SO PROUD OF HER, GO BABY V! YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY IDOL :)
Vanessa is such an amazing girl.
I am so proud of her, and I wish her all the happiness and love she deserves in 2008!
I can’t wait to pick up this magazine!
Well if mama says it’s ok to be naked it must be ok! Wow, what a dynamic duo. I guess like mother , like daughter.
Vanessa sounds like she is so full of herself and really there are lots of prettier girls in Hollywood who don’t have to tell us how cute they are. Zac could do much better then this chick.
Sounds very immature and not too smart.
Whoa steph, remind me never to get on your bad side. You go girl!
LOVEER HEER:) AND HER MOM FOR SUPPORTING HER JAJA TEAM V
Shes Amazing!
I Love Love Love Love Her!
(:
Absolutely adorable. She handled that interview with so much maturity. And she’s so positive, outgoing, herself, and she’s kind of living in the now, which is totally cool for someone like her to do after what happened. Vanessa’s going to be absolutely amazing, I just know it. She’s already half-way there.
As for what her mother said, in all honesty, my mother would have said the same thing. Sure she would have been a little disappointed, and I’m sure Vanessa’s mother was disappointed a little too, but even my mom agrees that teenagers do all kinds of stupid things in their teen years and that nobody should be held accountable for them. To punish someone now for something they did in the past, is not only very hypocritcal, it’s also very stupid.
To tell the truth, I was pretty happy when I read the part about how you shouldn’t become “addicted” to your boyfriend. She’s got her priorities straight, she knows that friends and family are just as important as a relationship. And at 19, she shouldn’t be planning the rest of her life with a guy just yet. I like her with Zac, but I also like the fact that she’s not letting him control her life, and she’s being her own person.
When I look at Vanessa, I don’t see a hypocrite, or a fake, or a s.lut, or a girl who’s too full of herself. I see a young woman who’s taking life as it comes at her with a great attitude and enjoying everything she has while she has it. And I think that’s something we could all learn from.
Seriously, I love her. She is so awesome. I love how shes not afraid to say how she messed up and that shes not perfect. I don’t mind what Gina Hudgens said. What is she gonna tell her 18 years old adult daughter? Go sit in time-out? No. The little thing about Zac was adorable. I’m glad they’re starting to talk about their relationship in ide bitey pieces. lol. Bless you Vanessa.
wow she is so fulll of herself. how can her mother say oh everybody gets nakdd…. yea right she got beat to the freakin ground, i never met a Filipino mom who isn’t strict and if that is what he rmother really said about her pics what a great mom beautiful role model for your teenage hobagg. how she says the thing about ‘pretty girls’ so she is calling other people ugly. im sorry but alot of beautiful actresses have found great roles and films to be on you just don’t know how to act. you’re average looking girl from Salinas you’re a bore get over yourself.
You all should really stop talking about Gina. You all don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. Vanessa isn’t gonna tell everything for your imformation. & may I ask how she’s full of herself? Maybe because she’s confident? Wow who knew being confident was a bad thing.
Smart girl. She has her head on straight and continues through whatever comes her way, good or bad.
anyone of you heard this song by rihanna and ne-yo?
HATE THAT I LOVE YOU
That’s how much I love you
That’s how much I need you
And I can’t stand you
Must everything you do
Make me wanna smile
Can I not like you for awhile? No
But you won’t let me
You upset me girl
And then you kiss my lips
All of a sudden I forget
That I was upset
I can’t remember what you did
But I hate it
You know exactly what to do
So that I can’t stay mad at you
For too long, that’s wrong
And I hate it
You know exactly how to touch
So that I don’t want to fuss and fight no more
Said I despise that I adore you
And I hate how much I love you boy
I can’t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can’t let you go
And I hate that I love you so
And you completely know the power that you have
The only one that makes me laugh
Said it’s not fair
How you take advantage of the fact that I
Love you beyond the reason why
And it just ain’t right
And I hate how much I love you girl
I can’t stand how much I need you
And hate how much I love you girl
But I just can’t let you go
But I hate that I love you so
One of these days maybe your magic won’t affect me
And your kiss won’t make me weak
But no one in this world
Knows me the way you know me
So you’ll probably always
Have a spell on me
That’s how much I love
That’s how much I need you
That’s how much I love you
That’s how much I need you
And I hate that I love you so…
And I hate how much I love boy
I can’t stand how much I need you
And I hate how much I love you boy
But I just can’t let you go
And I hate that I love you so
And I hate that I love you so…
I don’t know…I just remembred it when I read the article!:)
Look, Vanessa didn’t say she wasn’t going to be with Zac in the future. I think it is clear she meant that she doesn’t spend her time thinking about it. She is focused on the here and now and enjoying what they have right now—that’s all we are promised anyway. As she says they will have to see what happens. That seems like what most people do who are still getting to know each other. They are young and they are just starting out in all areas of their lives. They have a lot to put together yet. But when she says he always makes her happy and knows how to make her laugh is a very important thing. And most celebrities that have ever divulged too much about their personal lives has been sorry for it. It is like the kiss of death. It sounds like they are living in the moment and she seems to be that type of girl.
Those of you who are so worried about her not being good role model should appreciate the fact that she is saying how important it is to have your family and other friends be important in your life too even if you have a boyfriend. So, many young girls like Vanessa LIVE for a guy when they are involved and lose other important aspects of life. This is a down to earth attitude and you who want to find fault in that statement want to do just that, FIND FAULT.
What was her mother to say to her when she could clearly see her daughter was traumatized by what had happened to her. I think Gina was trying to lighten the moment. After all, what purpose would it have served to yell at her at that point. I’m sure more serious words were exchanged later once Vanessa felt like she could hold her head up again. I’m sure Gina was more concerned about her daughter’s welfare when she first heard about it than to become self-righteous.
SO THE BETCH IS HAPPY ABOUT HER NAKED PICS?
EVEN HER TRASHY UGLY AS MOM SUPPORTS IT “EVERYONE CAN BE NAKED IF THEY WANT”
NO BETCH ITS NOT NORMAL TO TAKE PICS OF UR PRIVATES
alot of mommas do say it’s ok.. When they take pictures/ videos of their preschooler in the bathtub or when they laugh and take pictures/videos of their little ones that have decided to take off all their clothes and run around the house naked.
Then these same momas say awwweee, let’e send these to grandma, grandps, aunt and uncle so and so, I bet they would love to see it. Thus the pictures/videos go out in the mail or email and the little ones wait for their relatives and family friends to say how cute they were/are.
So yes, with kids being sponges and absorbing everything, their mothers were in a sense telling them that it was ok.
That to me is the greater of the 2 evils when weighed against the one photo that vanessa took and never intended to get out.
omg, is she the most adorable
thing you’ve ever seen. or what?!
keep it upp vanessa!
your a wonderful woman,
and we are all proud of you!
I LOVE YOU VANESSA!
Zanessa forever! : D
