Vanessa Hudgens Gets Naked For New Film

Since High School Musical 3 wrapped, Vanessa Hudgens has been desperate to appeal to a more adult audience. And that seems to be exactly what she'll do with her new movie Sucker Punch. Admittedly Vanessa Hudgens is trying to appeal to a very specific adult audience - the sort of adult audience that cuts holes in its trouser pockets so that it can masturbate discreetly at the cinema, the sort of adult audience that only became a removal man so that it could steal women's underwear when nobody was looking - because she'll be playing a naked prostitute. But a girl's got to start somewhere.

The LA Times reports: "I'm playing a character named Blondie, and it's set in a brothel in the 1950s, so there's not a whole lot of clothes!� I think this is my time to really step it up and get to grow up." She talks about her role as a sexy woman "strutting her stuff" � and she does things "I would never have imagined doing." - more on this story

Michael Jackson Sales Jump 37 Percent This Week

Record label sources have suggested that sales of Jackson's albums were particularly strong last week because of publicity surrounding his memorial service on Tuesday July 7.
