Nude or Not, Hudgens Back for 'HSM 3'

Published | Updated

Despite her nude pictures being passed around the Internet, teen queen Vanessa Hudgens will back for the third installment of the Disney powerhouse, "High School Musical."

Vanessa is "locked in" for the film, a source tells Us Weekly, and Hudgens will receive a "substantial raise." That's good news when you consider that earlier this month, Vanessa had to shoot down rumors that she was canned.

That raise could come handy -- Vanessa is in the middle of a court battle with her former attorney, who says she owes $150,000. Vanessa countered this week that their deal shouldn't hold up in court, since she was only 16. She's hoping to get the class case dismissed.
