Quote of the Day: Vanessa Hudgens

via Parade

"When I was young, I would not talk to anybody if I didn't know them. I'd hide behind my mom if she tried to introduce me to anyone. . . . I would call her at work nonstop, to the point where she got fired. It was horrible. . . . When I was on the stage, I felt like I was hiding behind a person, and I adored it."

Vanessa Hudgens is on the cover of PARADE magazine this month and admits that she was a shy kid! Who would have guessed that this "High School Musical" star once had stage fright?
