Scandals Continue for Vanessa Hudgens

The scandals for Vanessa Hudgens keep on coming. After the photos of her naked appeared on the Internet she is now apparently being sued for breach of contract by her former lawyer! He says she owes him $150,000.

Brian L. Schall, her lawyer, filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court in September. He claimed to have helped her with the negotiations for her recording and songwriting contracts.

According to him she was supposed to pay five percent of her earnings from any deals he worked on of which she has only paid a portion.

Since the photos have appeared, Hudgens has kept very quiet and her relationship with Disney is in question. Let's hope she can get through this and back for HSM3!

Vanessa Hudgens Off High School Musical 3?

I found this quote online but I don't believe it. It seems like it might be a fake!

"Due to the recent scandal of High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens' naked photo scandal, Execs at Disney have parted ways with the star and have decided to replace her with Cheetah Girls star Adrienne Bailon. The decision came just hours after the scandal became public and got to the offices at Disney. Says insiders 'It was an extremely hard decision to do. Vanessa has become apart of the family, but we felt it was irresponsible of her to do what she did.' It has now been announced that Bailon, star of another hugely successful Disney franchise The Cheetah Girls will replace Hudgens in the role of Gabriella, Zac Efron's love interest in the upcoming High School Musical 3. Both Hudgens and Bailon's reps denied a comment, as well as the reps for Disney." - US Weekly

High School Musical 3 Auditions on YouTube?

It's really weird but I've found a bunch of HSM3 auditions on YouTube. When I searched with Google it looks like some agent is trying to promote this but I think it might not be legit.

Here's a sample (just search for High School Musical 3 Auditions on YouTube):

I was lucky to hear an interview on the radio before school last spring about talent agents making commercials that are using the line 'Do you want to be in a Disney Channel movie?'

Looks like some agencies are charging $5000 to $10000 just to get an audition. The radio station had a talent agent on that said you should never have to pay for an audition. Those commercials are misleading and are charging for acting classes. Almost no one gets on these shows.

They said your best chance is to (as best I can remember):

- Always find a local talent agent / check around to see who's good in your nearest town
- Never pay high fees for auditions
- Get your publicity photo and portfolio ready
- Try to get in as many commercials, etc. as possible

I know there were more ideas but I can't remember.
