Vanessa Hudgens And Austin Butler Are Reportedly Over After Nine Years Together
For some Millennials, Vanessa Hudgens was and will always be Gabriella Montez, and her true love is either Zac Efron or Troy Bolton (depending on your level of delusion). So for those people, this news will no doubt have them dreaming up a fantasy in which Vanessa returns to East High for her 10-year reunion and hooks up with Zac/Troy in the back of a 2009 Chevy Malibu after too many vodka-spiked imported English iced teas. But for the rest of us, we’re sitting here with the knowledge that Vanessa has called it quits with her boyfriend of nearly a decade, the soon-to-be-Elvis Austin Butler.
Robert Pattinson Is Officially Going To Be Batman
Looks like the people who are working on the next Batman movie, called The Batman, really thought to themselves: “Hmmm, how can we piss off literally every single fan boy who we haven’t already alienated after Ben Affleck?” Well the brainstorming session has been completed and it was a rousing success! After it was rumored that Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult were the last two left for the role, it looks like Warner Bros. has approved RBattz!
There’s A Rumor That Vanessa Hudgens Will Play Catwoman In “The Batman”
It’s a mid-to-late 2000s miracle! Well, at the very least, it’s a miracle for anyone who was a teen girl in 2008 who also happens to have any interest in the characters of the DC universe. Matt Reeves‘ standalone Batman movie, The Batman, is still in pre-production. The rumor is that Batman will be played by Robert Pattinson. And now there’s a rumor from a YouTube channel that Catwoman will be played by 2000s TV musical queen Vanessa Hudgens. I look forward to the scene where Batman and Catwoman battle in the high school cafeteria over the last plate of chicken fingers.
No Day But Yesterday: “Rent Live” Wasn’t So Live
When I heard that Brennin Hunt, the dude who played Roger Davis in Fox’s live TV production of Jonathan Larson’s Rent, broke his ankle during a rehearsal the night before the live show was supposed to go down, I figured that his understudy pulled a Nomi Malone by pushing him down the stairs so that they could take the role and become an overnight STAH! But that didn’t happen, because Brennin Hunt didn’t have an understudy. None of the leads did. Fox decided to test fate by not getting the lead roles covered, and fate spit back by saying, “Wrong move, trick.”
So because a little thing called “a broken foot” kept Brennin from jumping on tables and running around, Fox decided to mostly scrap the live show. The bad news is that they aired a dress rehearsal from Saturday night. The good news for the actors who didn’t really give it their all during the dress rehearsal is that nobody really watched it. Rent: Not So Live flopped in the ratings with 3.42 million viewers. I mean, it got beat by America’s Funniest Home Videos.
So You Think You Can Judge A TV Dance Show
Deadline reports that Fox announced that Vanessa Hudgens, former star of Disney and noted rock vandal, got herself a gig as a judge on the fourteenth season of So You Think You Can Dance. The judging panel will be comprised of the owner of the most British name, Nigel Lythgoe, and the cheer-bot built out of scrap parts collected from Marie Osmond and Paula Abdul, Mary Murphy. Vanessa was in a promo for SYTYCD a few weeks ago, and they called her a “guest judge,” but it turns out she’s a permanent judge. The new season premieres on June 12th. Nigel released a statement about Vanessa joining the panel.
“I am so excited for Vanessa to join Mary and me on the judging panel for the 14th season of So You Think You Can Dance. There was instant chemistry in the audition rounds, and I know the SYTYCD fans will love her as much as we do. Vanessa is an accomplished artist and brings her own brand of enthusiasm and energy to our panel.”
Vanessa has never formally judged a TV show before (she appeared once on Project Runway), and she may not be that well known for her dance skills. But she did do some decent “hoofing” (as it’s known in the biz) in High School Musical and Grease: Live, and really, what greater qualifications do you need for reality TV? Vanessa tweeted that she’s “so excited!!!” for her new job. I’m sure she is. Vanessa’s last job was starring on NBCs Powerless, which was cancelled three episodes before the season finale. Thankfully there’s a lot more job security in reality competition shows. Especially dancing ones. You just can’t recreate the drama of dance in your bedroom in a video uploaded to YouTube.

At last night’s Billboard Music Awards, Drake was the Prom King, Prom Queen, Most Devastating Smile, Maple-Dipped Hottie, and the drunk chick who grabs a bunch of awards while everyone is on the dance floor screaming to Party Rock Anthem. He won everything.
