Vanessa Hudgens: I Love Giving Kids Hope & Happiness!

Vanessa Hudgens wears a pair of short shorts as she arrives at her dance class on Friday (September 14) in Los Angeles.

The 23-year-old actress recently spoke to Variety about her involvement with Make-a-Wish.

“I think that everybody should have a chance to follow their dreams, but sometimes following your dreams isn’t always that easy,” Vanessa said. “So when I was about 16 years old, I became involved with Make-a-Wish while filming High School Musical. We would have set visits with kids. It was amazing.”

“I love the idea of being able to give kids hope and happiness. I’ve been addicted to being a part of the organization ever since” Vanessa added.

FYI: V is wearing the Ash ‘TITAN’ studded-mini moto boots.

I just got paid $6784 working off my laptop this month. And if you think that’s cool, my divorced friend has twin toddlers and made over $9k her first month. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less. This is what I do, http://Fox46.com

@Haters Suck!:
she was in NY

@TT:
i want pictures too

I’m making $86 an hour working from home. I was shocked when my neighbour told me she was averaging $95 but I see how it works now. I feel so much freedom now that I’m my own boss. This is what I do, >>> Green32.comOPEN THIS LINK TO READ MORE

I wonder if she didn’t go to the magazine cover event. She wasn’t seen in NYC and she would not fly back for a day.

She was seen at the event and she had dinner with Austin.

@maria: She and Austin were having drinks with Shawn Pyfrom the other night and a bunch of people said they saw her. There aren’t any pics from the magazine event but she was there.

I think she had to fly back because the Variety’s Power of Youth event is tomorrow.

the untitled magazine list of retail location http://untitled-magazine.com/purchase/

loveyou pitch

She’s so fake lol. She’s in the biz for herself, not giving people hope.

She looks pretty in red

nothing going on up top,lol

Very Avg. @ 09/14/2012 at 5:53 pm

She woundn’t be the pretiest girl a your local MickeyD’s.

@KissThis:
Why do you think she is fake?

She looks hot

Haters Suck!, you really are a dic*khead aren’t you? Sucks to be you.

Love that she is using her celebrity to help others. Of course she chose to go into the “biz” for herself. ALL ACTORS DO. It’s what she does in with what she has that makes her a good person. She is what she is, it’s her choice not to become a plastic, fake representive of what you think she should be.

@KissThis:
Whats the biz?

Vanessa Hudgens: I Love Giving Kids Hope & Happiness, when I have spare change and I have shopped all LA and NY boutique and shopping malls dry

@maevy:
so to you money = happines… she never said anything about money, she talks about dreams, about how you should have your heart full of happines. I guess your life its pretty sad.

She looks amazing! Congratz Vanessa!

Haters Suck! @ 09/14/2012 at 6:42 pm

@very avg.
Funny considering you’d be the dumbest person there.

Haters Suck! @ 09/14/2012 at 6:46 pm

@intric8
Coming from a jacka$$ like you that don’t carry much weight. Why don’t you go support your home wrecking ho. She really needs it now since lots of people are still looking to burn her at the stake.

Porky Got Pig @ 09/14/2012 at 7:19 pm

I bet she did not even write those words but came from a pr person she hires to do all that…. she too busy going to the gym, shopping and porgetting the boy …..

i want her body

@KissThis: Obviously she got into true business for herself, but she’s using her own success to help others. That’s not ‘fake’.

Her beauty glows from within. Anyone have the links to pics of her in New York?

Are you sure she was in NYC? If so, she is dedicated these days with the workouts!!

Zac looked sad leaving for TIFF .I think he missed her .She looks kinda sad here too .No wonder ! After such a long time ….

@BO:
Really BO?is the Austin relationship just a cover and she goes and secretly meets with Zac?? Come on! LOL!

There are pics of her everywhere lately. At the bookstore yesterday she was in almost every gossip mag.

short ,dark, and fugly

@KissThis:
i’m glad she is working for herself. if it was for some of her fans she would be stuck with disney and still stuck with a “relationship.”

Miss Sri Lanka has been reading too many mushy novels: the hero and heroine always end up together.
The pics from Untitled Mag really shows off her maturity and beauty. Love the pics. I know it has been an uphill battle all the way but I believe with Springbreakers, Gimme Shelter and Frozen Ground, Vanessa has proven her mettle. I’m rooting for her all the way.

MoreThanWords @ 09/15/2012 at 2:22 am

@BOJI: IT is really beginning to show her true age. IT’S stuck in a Zanessa time warp. Stupid sod.

@MoreThanWords: Yes, IT is delusional. Frankly, I think IT isn’t allowed out past 10 pm.

She exercises a lot and looks amazing!!!

hermaione @ 09/16/2012 at 1:00 pm

wow that was quick… she’s a flash girl but anyways lovely as always
natural beauty

hermaione @ 09/16/2012 at 1:03 pm

LOVE VANESSA TILL THE END ..

@elle:

Heard Austin is moving to NY in the next month and Carrie Diaries starts filming Oct 19th. SO Vanessa will probably be there more, well as much as she can be.
