Check out these new (and some old) movie stills from High School Musical 3: Senior Year.

People has a special collector’s edition featuring the cast of HSM3. Ashley Tisdale reveals she used to hate her costar Lucas Grabeel: “We would hardly talk to each other. When I was auditioning for [mean girl] Sharpay, I screen-tested with him and I was acting like Sharpay. I think he was like, ‘Who is this girl telling me what to do?’”

On-screen couple Zac Efron, 20, and Vanessa Hudgens, 19, took their love off-screen but said they may not be done making movies together.

“No one says it’s the last time,” Vanessa said. “Who knows what the future will bring?”

The event was held to raise awareness of the significant increase in demand that foodbanks across the country are currently experiencing.

Monique handed out her exclusive “Fight Childhood Hunger” lunch bag to the first 500 kids who packed shopping bags full of food products donated by ConAgra Foods Foundation. Coleman designed the special edition lunch bags as part of a national retail campaign benefiting America’s Second Harvest.

“Kids are getting ready to head back to school and it’s important to ensure that they have full stomachs with the balanced meals they need to reach their full potential,” said Coleman. “I hope our efforts today inspire kids across the country to organize their own food drives to help hungry kids.”
