Celebrity Kids

The High School Musical star is being sued by a producer who claims he and Vanessa had an greement to launch Vanessa’s career and “share equally’ in the profits.” Johnny Vieira claims that Vanessa fired him after High School Musical made her a star. Vieira says that the court had to approve the contract because Vanessa was a minor. As a result of her Musical success, Vieira says that he’s owed $2 million. I’m assuming that the extra $3 million is for punitive damages. Interestingly enough TMZ, has a signed photo that Vanessa gave Johnny when things were a lot rosier between the two.

The note reads, “Johnny, thank you for everything, without you, I would be no where[sic], we will make it BIG- Vanessa Hudgens.” Huh. Wonder how this is going to work out. My guess is they settle. Especially if Johnny does indeed have an agreement that involved the court.

Vanessa Hudgens High School Musical

You’ll have to wait a little longer to see High School Musical 3 which hits theaters on October 24. In the meantime you can catch Vanessa Hudgens in a sneak peak of her new Sears commercial. The HSM star will appear in a five Sears commercials focusing on a girl deciding what to wear on the first day of school. The commercial is a nod to Britney Spears Hit Me Baby One More Time.

Vanessa recently dispelled rumors that boyfriend/costar Zac Efron doesn’t shower. “He showers! He showers! Believe me, he does,” insists Vanessa. “Whoever came up with that is completely idiotic.”
