Could nude pictures of Vanessa Hudgens sink Disney's billion-dollar franchise?
Times Online(UK) ^ | 9/9/2007 | Chris Ayres

By the standards of the internet, the photograph is relatively tame: an 18-year-old girl, standing in a bedroom in front of deep red curtains, pulling back her hair and smiling for the camera.

She’s stark naked, of course.

But this is a nude picture like no other. It could, in fact, represent one of the most expensive PR disasters in recent media history.

Kind of a sad commentary on American society today, isn’t it, that we have gone from Annette to this trash? I wonder what becomes of a society that has plunged itself into such a precipitous moral descent. Unfortunately, I believe there may be a Rachet Effect.

Same thing happened with Traci Lords when it was discovered she was underage while doing porn.

What Traci did was a shrewd, brilliant move. As an X-Rated actress (even with a convincing fake ID) she was only paid one time for her movies. She earned nothing from residual sales. By the time she was 18, she was a huge star in the business but made no money from her work. What to do? Easy! She exposed the fact that she was underage rendering all of her previous films and photos illegal and unmarketable. Once her films had been pulled from the shelves, she capitalized on her fame to make one film as a legal adult. Per her contract she retained all control over this film and made a fortune thanks in part to her newfound notoriety. Then she quit the X-Rated business and found modest success in mainstream entertainment.

Jessica Biel was upset that her role in "7th Heaven" was typecasting her as a goody two-shoes and keeping her from getting edgier film offers.

So she violated her contract with the producers of "7th Heaven" and did an artsy nude photoshoot for a British "upscale" lad mag when she was 17.

She then won a role as a jaded and sleazy coed in The Rules Of Attraction directed by hip underground director Roger Avary and parlayed that into small roles in Cellular and Elizabethtown, until The Illusionist made her an A-list name.

Her “boyfriend” Zac Efron’s career is skyrocketing right now so Vanessa could use a little help coming out from behind his shadows. Couple that with rumors in the blogosphere and gossip columns about his sexuality and I have no problem guessing out how those pictures were “leaked.”

They showed her on fox news when they were talking about the pictures are I would have been like you, and will be again next week, because it is not much, she's short and would never make it as a hooters girl!

A guy who sings and dances, why would there be any questions about his sexuality? /s

When I was a teenager I had a boyfriend who was into photography. We went out to the desert and he took pictures (he later told me they didn’t look like I do in person, but I never saw them) of me around his jeep. The most risque I got was something that would be like something on the cover of Vogue (probably more tame). I wouldn’t allow for more, since at 18 I didn’t want anything out there if I ever became famous someday. LOL!

That’s why I think it’s silly when people go on about an actor who eventually got out of the spotlight. Saying, “So and so no longer has a career.” They might. Just not in the entertainment industry. Not everyone wants to be in that environment their whole life.

Maybe too many times posted or maybe the thread got out of hand or perhaps too many links to her photos. I know I added a link or two....
