Vanessa Hudgens

After so many years, Vanessa Hudgens will return to theater productions wherein she will star in the musical Rent as Mimi. The stage production will run from August 6–8, 2010 at the Hollywood Bowl. Her involvement in the production drew negative comments, but director Neil Patrick Harris defended his decision with casting Hudgens by saying, “Vanessa Hudgens is awesome. She’s a friend. I asked her to come in and sing to make sure she had the chops for it. And she was very committed and seemed great.”
