WASHINGTON - Rumours are abuzz that teen sensation Vanessa Hudgens’ latest naked photo scandal could be a publicity stunt.

Hudgens is currently prepping to play a potty-mouthed hooker in her first ‘breakaway’ Disney film entitled ‘Sucker Punch’ and is busy doing the media rounds for her new family-friendly flick ‘Bandslam.’

And although such controversy isn’t exactly ideal for the girlfriend of Zac Efron, it may successfully propel her career in the ‘adult’ stratosphere, as per Hollywood’s leading image consultant Michael Sands.

“Vanessa wants to raise her visibility and become an ‘A’ lister, so by posing Vanessa is shedding her Disney image and becoming a serious actress,” Fox News quoted Sands as saying.

“Vanessa feels her career is being held back and she wants to be ‘en vogue’,” he added.

However, a source close to Hudgens has said that she refuses to discuss the ordeal and is humiliated by the expose. (ANI)
