High School Musical 2

All the PYT's from High School Musical were out in LA on Monday to celebrate the release of HSM2 on DVD. While Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens had a little cuddly time on the red carpet, the gang was all about charity as the event benefited a LA children's hospital. And even though the night's focus was on the second movie, the buzz was about how the cast is in talks to join up again for a third installment. Vanessa, for one, said, "I am so very excited... to do a third one for the big screen, I can't begin to think how much fun we'll have." After a bit of an iffy time in the middle there (uh, you know why), I can only imagine that Vanessa is extra thrilled to be back on screen playing Gabriella next to her heartthrob boyfriend.

Zac Efron had a lot to smile about having lunch and reading over a script at Aroma Cafe in Hollywood yesterday. Friday evening's High School Musical 2 premiere was the most watched cable program of all time, bringing in 17.24 million viewers!! Never underestimate the power of kids, tweens and their parents (who secretly love it). Also, Zac's baby blues, shaggy hair and spray tan doesn't hurt. Between HSM and Hairspray, Mr. Efron is quite the commodity these days, isn't he? I'm definitely impressed with all the little HSMers! Methinks we'll be seeing High School Musical 3, 4, 5, 6....

The young stars of High School Musical 2 headed to Disneyland last night to premiere the sequel to last year's cultural phenomena. We're happy to see that Zac left the most of the makeup to his girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale, who looked fabulous on the blue carpet. Cindy Crawford showed the young girls how it's done, looking as model-perfect as ever. The HSM mania has definitely skyrocketed its stars to fame, and according to Ms. Tisdale it's all because of their fans. She said, "I mean this is really crazy. It's absolutely surreal. The fans are amazing. They really are. We did the first movie we never thought it was gonna be this huge." HSM2 premieres this Friday on the Disney channel.
