Vanessa Hudgens might be considered a 22 year old cougar. Her new boyfriend, actor Josh Hutcherson is only 18 years old! But Josh (he appeared in Bridge to Terabithia and The Kids Are all Right) knows a good thing when he sees it. They look like a happy couple bowling in Studio City.
Vanessa Hudgens needs a new boyfriend or an exciting job opportunity because the 22 year old seems to be bored out of her mind. Why else does a successful and beautiful young woman go out and get tattooed in this day and age? What was hot in the 90’s has become tiresome, with tattoo removal offices rivaling tattoo parlors in number. Desperate for excitement, Vanessa got another butterfly tattoo – she has one on her back and this one’s visible on her neck. (Apparently the name Vanessa translates to butterfly in Greek, as if that’s an excuse.) Maybe this is one of the few ways Disney kids can rebel without consequences.
When they were together, (now they seem to be friends with benefits) Vanessa Hudgens used to tease Zac about being obsessed with his looks – from his skin to his weight. Thanks to Vanessa, he learned how to cover up blemishes – with her concealer, and he learned how to control his weight. Zac observed when Vanessa signed up for the ZEN gourmet diet home delivery service. For $35 a day, three fresh meals are delivered with the appropriate calorie count. Zac had to gain about 18 pounds of muscle for “The Lucky Ones” in which he plays an Iraq war vet (above.) The movie wrapped before Christmas and now he wants to get rid of the weight so he’s eating 1800 calories a day, thanks to ZEN….and Vanessa.
There have been plenty of false alarms for these two, but America’s Sweethearts Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens insist they have finally broken up for good. And what timing! Vanessa’s birthday is December 14 and it’s right before Christmas and the dreaded New Year’s Eve! They’ve been together for four years since they did High School Musical for Disney, and that’s a LOOONG time in teen years – both have done a lot of growing up since then. Still, it’s the end of an era.
