Vanessa Hudgens Gets A Raise For HSM3

The nude pictures Vanessa Hudgens so cleverly leaked seems to have paid off for the young starlet. Disney announced recently that the production of High School Musical 3 would include Hudgens along with a giant pay raise, something that comes as no surprise.

Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale will reprise their roles in the upcoming third installment of the hit movie High School Musical, sources close to the negotiation tell Usmagazine.com. A source says that Hudgens will receive a “substantial increase” in pay. “Vanessa is locked for the movie,” a HSM3 source tells Us. “She is very happy that the deal is done.” “The contract will be signed within the next week,” a Hudgens source tells Us. “It is almost a done deal.” A close Tisdale source says of the other lead actress’ negotations, “It’s done, done, done.”

Hudgens’ nude photo scandal in September sparked an erroneous report by OK magazine that she would be replaced by either Adrienne Bailon and Sabrina Bryan, both members of the Cheetah Girls. “I am embarrassed over this situation and regret having ever taken those photos,” Hudgens said in a statement. At the time, Disney released a statement saying, “We hope she’s learned a valuable lesson.”
