Vanessa Hudgens: Chez Nous Sweetheart

Stepping out for a midday outing, Vanessa Hudgens was spotted leaving Chez Nous restaurant in Toluca Lake, California on Friday (November 21).

Sporting a black top and jeans to go with her bangy hairdo, the “High School Musical” hottie enjoyed a bite to eat and conversation with a friend before passing the paparazzi on the way back out to her car.

Speaking of paparazzi, Miss Hudgens recently revealed her disdain for the intrusive shutterbugs, telling, “I mean, put yourself in my situation: people who you do not know taking pictures of you in your own room!”

“It’s obnoxious and invasive, and I don’t know why they would do it,” the 19-year-old brunette beauty adds.

Vanessa Hudgens: Limousine Pick-Up

Readying for Friday’s release of her new movie “High School Musical 3: Senior Year,” Vanessa Hudgens was spotted tending to her business duties in Los Angeles on Thursday (October 23).

Toting her Mac laptop in-hand, the 19-year-old Disney star made her way outside to an awaiting limo, reportedly on her way to Warner Brothers Studios for a meeting.

Meanwhile, throughout her HSM3 press duties, Miss Hudgens has been asked how she’s been dealing with her sudden stardom, replying, “It’s been crazy. Every time I go to a premiere I just get butterflies in my stomach because it’s such an extraordinary thing to be a part of. It seems no matter where we go, everyone is genuinely excited. In Spain, they would wait outside the garages and chase our cars as we left. But I still get a normal life. I’m not dressed up all the time, and I still go grocery shopping and everything.”

When asked of her future plans following life as a “High School Musical” star, Vanessa replied, “I am looking for things I can grow with. I’m not looking to separate myself from Gabriella because she is an amazing role model—it’s always nice to play the smart girl. But I do want to play different roles. My new movie, ‘Bandslam’ which comes out in July, is a bit more rock’n’roll. I get to play this character who is a lot darker.”
