Being an enthusiastic singer, Vanessa loves to work in musicals, and she is probably looking forward to being cast in another musical like Grease: Live! According to Just Jared, Vanessa revealed that singing is her passion, and she feels incomplete without her art.
“I sing on set non-stop. It’s not a good day until I’ve sung… for me! Not for anyone else.”
Fans witnessed Vanessa’s singing skills earlier when she worked alongside celebrities like Zac Efron and Ashley Tisdale in the hit High School Musical trilogy, whose fourth installment is currently in production. According to E! Online, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale got together and celebrated their shared passion for singing Beyoncé songs while making use of Snapchat filters.
The duo posted a series of Snapchat videos on their Instagram accounts which showed them singing songs from Beyoncé’s Lemonade album. The videos were made even more interesting by their use of Snapchat filters like the hot dog filter and the puppy filter. Vanessa and Ashley are known to be best friends in real life even though they played the roles of die-hard competitors in the High School Musical trilogy. In Ashley Tisdale’s opinion, the Snapchat video was the best story recorded to date as it was shot alongside Vanessa Hudgens, her best friend.

In Vanessa’s opinion, the theme of the upcoming television series hasn’t been explored before as the focus is usually on the superheroes with everyday people affected by their shenanigans usually neglected. According to Entertainment Tonight, Vanessa spoke about the need to highlight the stories of ordinary citizens in the DC Universe whose lives are affected by the superheroes.
“The attention’s always on the superheroes… What about the people who are trying to live their lives, and do their jobs who are affected by it?”
Recently, Vanessa Hudgens joined Danny Pudi and Ron Finches, her Powerless co-stars, at the 2016 San Diego Comic-Con to promote the television series. Later, Vanessa headed to the press line to brief the reporters about the upcoming series from DC Comics.
