Vanessa Hudgens Has Court Complications
Vanessa Hudgens dons a pair of J Brand “912” pencil leg jeans in dark vintage as she heads to an important legal meeting at a Los Angeles office building on Wednesday afternoon (April 8).
The 20-year-old HSM star kept texting on her phone (Zac?) and checking her messages as she held onto her JJ Winters Suede Zip bag.
V is dealing with a lawsuit where her former manager Johnny Vieira, is accusing her and her father of backing out of a deal made when she was a minor. The lawsuit is for $5 million.
Earlier this month, the judge threw out all but one of Vieira’s claims, meaning he can only pursue the accusation of breach of settlement agreement if and when the case goes to trial next month.

hey im first!!! vanessa u are very pretty i have to admit, and you have a GREAT sense of fashion, aghh but im jealous because u are zac’s gf
:( sorry
but youre beautiful=)
Vanessa looks so beautiful! Lovin’ the Ray Bans! She always looks good, with a hot boyfriend to boot :P She’s so lucky!
I guess this would have to be one of the down falls to be being a famous person. Hang in there girl!
definitely a downfall of being famous, everyone looks at you and sees money signs.
Oh Vanessa you’re amazing, these are little problemas that everyone has. I really really love you.. You’re style is so amazing.
You’re like my role model :D be strong girl!
shes annoying…the difference between her talent and zacs talent is astronomical. he is properly talented and she just works off her looks (i can admit shes gorgeous)..it won’t last for long though
aww.. she looks sooo sad :(( GO girl! gud luck !!!!!!!
btw its soo sweet that your wearing the ring :))))
i absolutely miss zanessa :(
why the hell did that Viera schmuck not deal with this lawsuit straight away like 4 or 5 years ago? Why bring it up now? Oh yeahhhh $$$$$! Hopefully this gets thrown out to.
Johnny Vieira is a jackass.
i hope jhonny is reading this the loser.
Vanessa will get thought this.
stay strong baby v love you u lok gorgeous and vanessa is extremely talented she sings and dance great and is a good actress she will last just wait and see haters
well, she can always sell some n.u.de pics and make more money
Johnny Vieira you jackass.
So when ones goes to an important legal meeting.. one wears.. jeans???????
what did she do to be on trial????!?!?
we love u ness :D always with u
Lame. The guy is obviously desperate
Vanessa is always looking gorgeous and I bet it is either Zac or her parents that she keeps texting on her phone.
That’s good that all the other things Vieira wanted were thrown out–except the contract dispute. Hope Vanessa’s new attorney is sharp enough to get this thrown out, too. After all, it’s something her previous incompetent lawyer failed to take care of. If he had filed the documents, there would be no case today.
she looks gorgeous. i’m sure her case will go fine.
what does “an important legal meeting” mean? was this a meeting with her attorney?
5 million!! omg!
be strong vanessa
Hang in there V! Your fans are behind you 100%.
that guy is desperate of money .i love u vanessa your fans is
always with you.
Wish the best of luck for a good outcome for both parties….Don’t know what transpired between these two, but who knows…she’s probably eating her words and now they’re coming back to haunt her.
Maybe this person is just bitter and wants payback.
Okay, like does she even have 5 milion?!. that would whipe away all her money because she doesnt do much movies! so that can be BAD!
Okay, like does she even have 5 milion?!. that would whipe away all her money because she doesnt do much movies! so that can be BAD!!!!!!
Does she even have 5MILION DOLLARS?…man, …she doesnt even do much movies …if she fails and has to pay 5 milions of dollar, she goin to get poor, ..AND TRAGGIC IS GOING TO HAPPEN~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
miss regect from the garbage dump is having problems. If she didn’t try to cheat her agent she wouldn’t be in trouble.
I hope he gets every penny that he is sueing her for
um someone
some of the cases were dismissed and the one that they are dealing with now does not include him getting a lot of money
Someone:
If the judge threw out all but one of Viera’s claims he’s not going to get anything even remotely near 5 million dollars especially since V was a minor when the contract was struck.
But we can easily see by your post your hoping for the worst. Be careful the you reap what you sow.
cute outfit, love the tight jeans =]
she looks unbelievably cute,she can do no wrong imo
i hate zac sometimes =[
gl with all ur legal issues vanessa, love u!
all the bet of luck to Vanessa, i am sure good will be done…..god that guy is a flipping jerk i mean come on i am sure Vanessa was texting Zac for support and was probably wearing her ring as a good luck charm, again good luck Vanessa, Bless! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
That man don’t deserve any money, I hope V win
^^^ yea he doesn’t xx
She is so cute. I love her style.
Her former agent may be money hungry, but a contract is a contract. If someone cheated you out of money that was agreed upon in a signed legal contract, then you would have the right to sue too. None of us know what was in the contract. Even if the contract was signed when she was a minor, her parents and/or lawyer would have had to be involved. It’s not as if she was some defenseless child signing the contract all on her own without adult supervision. A contract is binding no matter what age. If she broke her contract, then she should pay up.
we’ll be praying for you V.
Vanessa looks so beautiful!
Vanessa will get though this. She Has Zac Efron to support her.
Hey # 28, 29, 30, I’m sure she gets residual checks and things from HSM franchise and she does Ecko Red and other things, so, she’s brings in the $$$…and she also has a 5 million dollar home more or less…and she’s decorating it…and she shops like a fiend…well, I think she has the money….
Hope she loses, she’s a talentless idiot. maybe she’ll have to sell her house and all of her designer handbags….poor girl.
#39…I agree with you, as it is a part of the law of contracts to honor what is written in the contract, it’s unfortunate, that this situation calls for being taken to court.
Aw sweet little miss nobody and her goofy family don’t understand what the word contract means. Hope he gets every bit of money she owes him.
#44….such class. NOT.
Viera is a slime, preying on a young teen, and now that she’s making it, he’s ticked and wants a piece. Well, I hope the good judge will do the right thing, and throw him out on his butt. Stand your ground, Vanessa!! It’s gonna be ok!
#47 … He may be a slime. But a contract is a contract. How do you know that she didn’t cheat him out of money that is rightfully his under terms of the contract? You can’t just make assumptions that he’s the bad guy in this situation unless you’ve seen the contract yourself.
Vanessa your fans our behind you a 100%. Hope everything works
out for you.
This because she still has a LOSER as boyfriend, folks!!
Sure a contract is a contract–so why isn’t he suing for the compensation owed to him under said contract which pertains solely to earnings from her contract under Hollywood Records? If all he’s going after is his just compensation then he’d only be suing her for what’s owed to him under that contract and just that.
Instead this second lawsuit he instituted against her went after everything: her endorsements [which earn her possibly close to eight figures a year--I think last year or 2007 she made close to 9 mil.], merchandising/royalty fees from the HSM-trilogy and her film work.
He’s not entitled to such monies but when her former lawyer screwed up after failing to file the settlement agreement V and Veira came to with the court for approval to make it binding on both parties, he filed a second suit against her with ridiculous claims like breach of fiduciary duty, slander, which were dismissed because they couldn’t be substantiated by facts [aka: evidence].
By the time he filed his second lawsuit V was way more successful and in demand and worth a heck of a lot more than what was owed to him under their original agreement. He saw dollar signs and took advantage of her lawyer’s screw up to go after all of her money, money she earned fair and square with no help from him whatsoever.
She seems willing to pay whatever is owed to him under their original agreement but only what’s owed to him under that and he’s not satisfied with that.
Perry:
I guess your mother had no time to reach you the laws of God and the universe.
You know how officially opened the door for you or your parents to lose their home and belongings. What goes around comes around that’s why it’smart to wish no one ill or disaster because it comes back to get you or someone you love. You should be careful.
She was a minor at the time of the contractual agreement; the jerk took advantage of a yet-unknown young actress.
Ha ha ha! Hope the little troll gets sued for all the money she has. That’s what happens when you enter into a contract with a “white trash” family.
And you’re just full of class yourself aren’t you, #54.
Seems to me Vanessa has more class in her pinky than some do in their entire bodies. She’s not spoken out against this guy, she’s not trashed him in the press, she’s not waged a publicity war against him. She’s done her utmost to handle this matter professionally and privately. It’s the former manager who tried to run to the press. I fail to see what makes her a troll and worthy of losing her entire earnings.
He’s being a total jerk and he’s only doingit now because she has made it so BIG and certainly NOT with his help!! Zac is right there with her in spirit even if he’s not able to be there with her in person,he’s her strength and she will get thru this. I have all the faith in the world that the judge will see thru this. Nessa and I talked about this awhile back,and yeah it has her worried but she will prevail over this creep!! She was a MINOR at the time NOT an adult,so that’s why all the other things were dropped and lord willing this part will be dimissed as well. Nessa is like a daughter to me,she calls me her second mom and we talk alot. She knows Zac as well as myself,her family,his family and of course all her fans are pulling for her :o) Thanks guys I know she appreciates it really! And as for the one that says she’s not talented,gee guess what if she wasn’t she sure as hell wouldn’t be getting all the movie,commercial,modeling offers she has been GETTING!!! So back off and if you can’t say anything nice about her then keep your comments to yourself!!! THANK YOU!!
And if any of you think I’m a kid or just BSing,trust me I happen to be a 55 year old wife,mother,grandmother and grtgrandmother. And Nessa,Zac and I have been close like family friends ever since shortly after HSM.. They are a blessing to have in my life and my 9 yr. old Grandson talks to them as well when he can.
And on behalf of Nessa,THANK YOU SO MUCH for all your love and support thru this.
Hang in there sweetheart,you’re going to come out on top I’m sure..God’s right there with you! Love ya much!!
Number 54 I happen to know this young lady that you so publicly call her family white trash and I also happen to be a FORMER POLICE OFFICER’S WIFE!!! HOW DOES A SLANDER AND DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER LAW SUIT SOUND AGAINST YOU???
IF I WERE YOU I WOULD VERY QUICKLY RETRACT YOUR STATEMENT,OR YOU’RE THE ONE GOING TO BE SITTING IN FRONT OF A JUDGE TRUST ME!!! CALLING SOMEONE’S FAMILY WHITE TRASH IS TOTALLY UNCALLED FOR,AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION,SHE HAS AN AWESOME FAMILY,A MOM THAT IS AN ABSOLUTE SWEETHEART AND FRIEND AND A LITTLE SISTER THAT IS SO SWEET,I LOVE TALKING TO THEM BOTH. THEY ARE FAR FROM BEING WHITE TRASH,THAT’S WHY THEY ALL LIVE IN VERY BEAUTIFUL HOUSES BECAUSE THEY ARE “WHITE TRASH”??? LOOK AGAIN STUPID!!!
Hey Vanessa, if you are reading this, just know that your fans and I are 100 percent behind you. And we know with Zac and your friends and family behind you, you will get through this. You are a wonderful person and very talented in my eyes and everyone else who believes in you. Keep you head held high and hope everything works out for you.
I believe in you Nessa and pray God be with you. Don’t pay attention to these stupid haters. I am not a kid either. I’m a 57 year old Mother and Grandmother. I would like to say that I am thankful for both Zac and Vanessa and looking forward to their long careers and a blessed relationship.
Your Fan
Vanessa is a strong girl, she’ll get trough this, as long as all of us support her! Baby V for ever! (and zanessa too)
I would set the record straight, but I see that is already been done. The contract issue once again, was due to a failure of her past lawyer. i am sure the reason Viera is trying to settle out of court, is because he knows he has lost it. He is a money hungry idiot, and I hope young girls and their families don’t fall prey to his work tactics. The believe the reason Vanessa took this to court is because the claims that were dropped were rediculous, and she wanted to bring him to light. Good for her. As for the settlement claim, she should pay, and I’m sure in the end she will. i don’t feel she would fight that out of court, but yet, the other claims were rediculous. They should have been fought, and I’m glad the judge saw it that way as well.
Johnny Vieira..what an absolute IDIOT.
Vanessa will always have her fans behind her.
Always these skinny jeans….. ugly.
I don’t like her - just a media fuffy. No wonder Zac doesn’t mind her
I’ll give them one more year then their realationship will be over! That’s life !
OMFG………………………….stop bringing up her family you sick people, her family are not white trash nor are they goofy they supported her didn’t they which i more than i can say for yours……..and she i not talentless ether no one in Hollywood is talentless and even though i dislike (not hate) some stars i know they are not talentless, they don’t just let anyone in for the fun of it, o all you hater out there, go you try and make it in Hollywood…….you probably will not. x
Vanessa, Your fans Are behind You and Love you xxxxxxxxxx
*Live in Love*
nessa looked gorgeous as usual!!!!!
wish baby v all the best!!!!!
i will support u 4ever!!!!
Media:
Grow up you gave them one more year last year.
And as for you others calling her family names = stop basing your life on the low life white trash you obviuously come from or wouldn’t be trying to pin the name on someone else’s family..
wooooooooooow she’s relly beautiful
i love her she’s sooo cute i love her
soooooooooooooooooooo much
luv nessa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
those are not ray-bans, stupid
JOHNNY IS A A$$ For Doing This Vanessa We Love You And Were Praying For You
She made $6 million total in 2006. Not sure what she made in 2007 but she made $3 million in 2008 from just the HSM3 movie. So with all the endorsements and such she can pay $5 million very easily. I don’t think he’ll get that much though.
MEDIA!!! Let me clue you in on something!! I personally know Zac and Nessa and trust me,someone she calls her SECOND MOM,these two are very much in love,Zac will always be beside her as she will his side. READ THIS ARTICLE and get a clue,they’re going to go A LONGGGG WAY FURTHER THAN A YEAR!!! AND BEING A FORMER POLICE OFFICER’S WIFE I WOULD ADVISE THOSE WHO FEEL IT’S OK TO BASH HER FAMILY OR HER OR ZAC I STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO STOP!!! THERE IS NOTHING WHITE TRASH ABOUT EITHER ONE OF THEIR FAMILIES,THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL LOVING PEOPLE AND THAT’S WHY ZAC AND NESSA ARE AS WELL BECAUSE OF THEIR UPBRINGING. READ THE ARTICLE AND THEN SHUT UP!!!!
Zac Efron Vanessa Hudgens Wedding: Zac & Vanessa Married By September
We hear High School Musical sweethearts Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens will tie the knot in a intimate wedding ceremony planned for September.
Blabbing tattles tell Britain’s People that the couple are already eyeing tropical venues for the Fall nupitals. Hawaii’s winning by a nose.
“Zac is over the moon Vanessa said ‘yes,;” according to a source close to the couple. “They are both young but they know it’s the real thing.”
Zac, 21, and Vanessa, 20, met on the set of Disney’s High School Musical three years ago and played teen couple Troy and Gabriella in the franchise. The young lovers live together in Los Angeles.
“The proposal was something Zac had been thinking about for a while. They are both really excited about the wedding - it will be a star-studded day. They fell in love with Hawaii while there for a friend’s wedding. And Vanessa wants to get married on a beach so it’s perfect.”
um liz that’s a rumour zac said so himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow being their second mom u sure know a lot
*sarcasm*
she is fantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) my inspiration
its okay vanessa ill be always there for u u will get through this
goodluck
btw loooooooooooook hoooooooooooooooooooooooooot
Tiff trust me,that was a rumor!! I was just useing that as an example to the remark from Media,they will be together alot longer than a year!!!I know more than even the media knows about these two! Think about it,if you were them as private as they are,would you want it to get OUT that you were getting married and when??? NOT!!! Remember how they were about their “dateing”? Think about it,of course Zac’s going to say that and I don’t blame him!! ONLY THEY AND THEIR FAMILY KNOWS WHEN AND WHERE THEY WILL BE GETTING MARRIED WHEN THE TIME COMES!!! But it WILL happen!!!
Trust me I really know what the kids are doing
she would be pretty as a brunette. her hair is too drastically dark in my opinion
why don’t you give it up momma liz? you wouldn’t go on so about knowing them and about you police husband if all that was true, you getting ridiculous. that was just a rumor and everyoon knows it and now you are trying to cover your a** by sayin it is example.
exactly
#78
i knew momma liz was lying from the beginning with my 13 yrs of wisdom
lol……
Vanessa is so beautiful.
todo nuestro apoyo para ella Johnny Vieira eres un estupido qqqqq solo le quieres sacar dinero
i loveeee vanessa
she is beautiful
she will win, you just want to make money
Vanessa is growing up fast I can’t for to see what more roles she gets. I hope Maybe well will see Vanessa in a sex sence in her new movie SP. I want Vanessa and Zac to do a movie together maybe Zac and Vanessa can do a sex sence together in a movie.
Vanessa is growing up fast I can’t wait to see what roles she gets. I hope Maybe well will see Vanessa in a sex sence in her new movie SP. I want Vanessa and Zac to do a movie together maybe Zac and Vanessa can do a sex sence together in a movie.
Report Abuse
SAD that you Ridiculous and Tiff don’t KNOW the truth if it bit you in the face!! I happen to be 55 years old!! It’s your loss you guys don’t know the kids like I DO!!! I feel sorry for you.. My 9 year old Grandson also knows and talks to them both,so if anyone is being rediculous it’s both of you and evidentally Tiff your 13 years of wisdom aren’t worth crap!!!
It doesn’t matter if they’re getting married this year or the next. I’m more interested in whether that blood sucking slimeball of a character is going to get a cent out of Vanessa or anyone else for that matter. At this point in time, what counts are her career prospects and what’s next on her agenda. We know that they are still very much together and that’s enough for me.
BE STONG GIRL!!!
WE’RE CHEERING FOR YOU.. Ü
Vanessa is alright she got a good lawyer to sort this problem,The only
things takes time to wait I hope this case is finish soon so that she
concentrare other things,
God Bless You Dont worry your fans, friends ,family,zac, always behind you!!!
she is beautiful!!!chin up vanessa be strong.
I love you so much!!!
That Viera cat is out of his mind.
Glad that the judge dismissed all his other claims against Vanessa.
Hope things get settled soon so she can put all her focus for Sucker Punch fight training if/when all of the actresses’ contracts are finalized.
She looks gorgeous.
luv nessa so much!!!!!!
she is in NY

#95suzy
thanks so much!!!!
v looks perfect all the time!!!!!
Hope the meeting worked to her advantage.
She looks really good in the pictures of her at JFK. There to support Zac and spend Easter Sunday with him.
http://vanessa-hudgens.org/photos/displayimage.php?album=1026&pos=14
she goin to get poor lot 5 million dollars
WOW
I THINK VANESSA NOT HAVES MONEY
Nessa is a very strong willed young woman and she’ll be just fine and yes she DOES have the money to pay this idiot moron IF she had to but I know she’s going to come out the winner in this case because after talking to her after this all first happened this guy didn’t even get her the HSM audition and the only reason he’s brought this up now is because she HAS made it so big in her career and he wants a piece of the pie,so in hers,mine,zac’s, her family’s and Zac’s family this jerk doesn’t deserve a dime!! I haven’t talk to her in a few days but her being in NYC you can bet she went there to spend Easter with Zac and just have some time with him after working on her film.They ALWAYS support each other thru good and bad. Zac is her rock,her everything and she’s his..He’s the shoulder she always leans on when she needs one and he’ll always be there for her especially now,that I know because he’s told me he’ll always be there for her no matter what!!! He is such a wonderful awesome guy.
Nessa baby if you and Zac read this,HAPPY EASTER to you both honey,tell Gina,Greg and the family I said the same to them,and to Dave,Starla and Dylan. Take care and have a wonderful time in NYC together. And don’t worry about this case everything will work out like I’ve always told you it would. XO to you both.
just hold on, i will always be her biggest fan, and of course she has good style
I like her outfit…those jeans are wicked cute.
************************************************
I have Known and Worked with Mr. Vieira, and i Can Honestly say that I would Stand Next to his Artists who are Victims similar to the case he has against Ms. Hudgens. Everything Mr. Hudgens stated is true!. Mr. Johnny Vieira is a Fake, a Fraud, and Most Unprofessional Producer that i have Ever met!
He preys for UnSigned Girls who are in need of a Record deal, and he Signs them according to Their Looks More than their Talent.. Like Johnny said Himself!
“Girls with no talent that are Hot! lol”
Check it out Urself:

No One Should Work with this man!
He will Sign U, then Keep U on Hold until U either are No Longer Good to get signed or He Plans to Screw U over at the end if U Become Successful like in Ms. Hudgens’ case… He WAITED all this Long time until she Finished HSM3 bcuz He Knew she was Going to Bank in More! and He Also is Publicly Using this as a Publicity Stunt to Promote His “TV show” that is in the works..
So Please Beware of this man!
