"Vanessa Hudgens: Her Allure Photo Shoot\\nVanessa Hudgens&amp;#39;s goody-two-shoes character in High School Musical launched her into superstardom&amp;#8212;but lately, she&amp;#39;s been eager to graduate. See these exclusive outtakes from the star&amp;#39;s shoot with photographer Carter Smith in Long Beach, New York, plus Hudgens&amp;#39;s thoughts on her looks over the years. For more photos, as well as the profile &amp;quot;Coming of Age,&amp;quot; pick up the October issue of Allure, on newsstands September 22.\\nVanessa Hudgens arrived at our shoot with a Starbucks green tea in her hand and beaded sandals on her feet. She sat down in front of the mirror and said to hairstylist Serge Normant, \\\"I'm still not used to my bangs.\\\" The actress had had them cut a month earlier for her role in *Beastly*, opposite Mary-Kate Olsen and Neil Patrick Harris. Makeup artist Linda Cantello was astonished by Hudgens's long lashes\u2014in fact, she almost forgot to apply mascara. \\\"That's the only time I've forgotten that in my entire career,\\\" said Cantello. \\\"Your lashes are so full, I didn't even notice.\\\"\\nIn 2007, several risqu\u00E9 photographs of Hudgens, including one full-frontal nude shot, surfaced on the Internet. Hudgens issued a public apology and moved on, reputation intact. But the photos have followed her, with a second set appearing online in August. \\\"Whenever anybody asks me, would I do nudity in a film, if I say that it's something I'm not comfortable with, they're like, 'Bullshit, you've already done it.' If anything, it makes it more embarrassing, because that was a private thing. It's screwed up that someone screwed me over like that,\\\" she adds, sighing. \\\"At least some people are learning from my mistakes.\\\"\\n\\\"I look the same; I don't think I've changed. But the style has changed a lot.\\\"\\n\\\"Me and Miles. I met Miley so long ago. I think her show was just starting out. She's a lot of fun, that one. She's just very outgoing and does her own thing.\\\"\\n\\\"It's so funny, because we showed up and we were like, 'Oh my God! We're both wearing minidresses! Let's take pictures together!' We called this pose our Mary-Kate and Ashley, because in our brains, we're twins; people just don't know it. Posing is a good thing to think about, and I usually slack in that department.\\\"\\n\\\"My mommy! I love her to death. She's the sweetest, happiest woman I've ever met, the most free-spirited, delightful person, and I aspire to be just like her. The older I get, the more I find myself like my mom. She just has the best outlook.\\\"\\n\\\"We won Choice Female Hottie and Choice Male Hottie. Such hard work. It's awesome because the fans voted for me, which means a lot, but I was debating forever: 'What the hell am I going to say in my acceptance speech? Thank God for making me look the way I look?' The Jo Bros were really sweet. They came to one of my concerts a long time ago. It's just been incredible watching them go.\\\"\\n\\\"I look kind of frightening there, don't I? Sweaty, just...ugh. I would go to these places in the South, it would be 100 degrees, and I'd have an hour-long set where I was dancing nonstop and singing live. Going on tour, it's so hard to look glamorous all the time.\\\"\\n\\\"We actually have the same stylist. That was our first time hanging out together. We were sitting at the same table; we went to the afterparties together and just had a great time. It was my first Golden Globes.\\\"\\n*Allure*: \\\"You look like a young Catherine Zeta-Jones in this picture.\\\"\\n\\n\\n\\nVH: \\\"Thank you. I get that we kind of resemble each other. I want to find a mother-daughter movie to do. We can do a musical!\\\"\\n\\\"I look mad. I play Sam, spelled S-a-5-m\u2014the 5 is silent. She's just a really offbeat, weird, deadpan character, and it was so much fun. I feel like this was my first step away from *High School Musical*.\\\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
