Debunked: Vanessa Hudgens Naughty Tape Doesn’t Exist

February 21, 2008

You have to feel bad for High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens.

Hudgens had to endure the embarrassment of having the world obsess upon a few playful photos of her in the buff that were never meant for public eyes.  She handled the situation with dignity.

“I want to apologize to my fans, whose support and trust means the world to me. I am embarrassed over this situation and regret having ever taken these photos,” she said back in September.

Now many months have passed and everybody has pretty much gotten over it.

But now there are multiple reports that she made a naughty tape the day she took those photo as well.  The reports quote her saying “I want Santa to come up my chimney because I’ve been a good little girl this year,” before doing the deed.  Ick.

There’s only one little problem. 

It’s completely untrue. 

The story actually originated last year Postcards from the Pug Bus, which is a satire website.   The Vanessa Hudgens “quote” comes from their 100% made-up story.  You can see the original here

The bottom of the each page of the website reads: “The fine print: the editorial content on this page is fictional. It is presented for entertainment purposes only. We cannot be held responsible for the actions of anyone who takes this sort of thing seriously.”

It’s simply irresponsible that people keep reporting this story as fact when it comes from a website that admits that all of its content is fictional.

    Thank You. This fake satire came out the same time as the pictures and I feel so bad for Vanessa as various websites are reporting it like it is fact when it is fake. Do these people have researchers she is trying to move on and it does not help people when the media makes up fake stuff and reports it as ‘truth’. I also bet that these people who have spread these fake stories around will not even bother to retract the lies they have wrote about a girl who is trying to get on with her life. Your website is the only one who has bothered to research this topic.

Got something to say?
