HOLLYWOOD - Bosses at Disney have dismissed reports they have dropped High School Musical actress Vanessa Hudgens following the circulation of nude photographs of the star online.
The 18-year-old's candid mirror-image shots were intended for her boyfriend and High School Musical costar
Zac Efron's eyes only--but an unknown third party stole the pictures and placed one on the Internet.
Disney studios were then alleged to be firing Hudgens over the shots, because the scandal had tarnished the teen's squeaky-clean image.
But a representative for the company has denied the incident will have repercussions on future casting decisions, and insists Hudgens' apology to fans on Friday proved her remorse.
The spokesperson says, "Vanessa has apologized for what was obviously a lapse in judgment."
