Ashley Tisdale’s Daughter Obsessed with High School Musical: Must-Hear Requests!

by

Ashley Tisdale’s daughter Jupiter has some fabulous requests.

It turns out that the 4-year-old has been taught by an excellent teacher: she’s learned from her mom’s beloved character, Sharpay Evans, on High School Musical. The singer of “Be Good To Me” revealed that Jupiter, whom she shares with husband Christopher French, can’t get enough of the Disney movie after watching her cousin perform her mom’s old role in a play.

In a TikTok video posted on May 13th, Ashley, aged 39, stated that in the past, when she watched the original movie, she didn’t hold much interest in it. However, after witnessing her niece perform in the play, Ashley has undergone a transformation. Now, she finds herself compelled to watch all three films and can’t get enough of the music. During their walks together, she even requests that Ashley plays it.

As an ardent enthusiast, I can’t help but confess my undying affection for “High School Musical 2.” My admiration runs so deep that it transcends mere fandom – it’s more like a personal connection. My heart skips a beat every time I hear Jupiter’s favorite song, the enchanting duet between Sharpay and her brother Ryan Evans (performed by Lucas Gabriel), titled “HUMUHUMUNUKUNUKUAPUA’A.” While Ashley may not share my enthusiasm for this Tiki-inspired anthem, it has a unique place in my musical heart.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I find myself in an amusing predicament: that catchy tune is driving me up the wall, playing on repeat. I jest, of course, but it’s a struggle. And then there’s this unexpected public outburst, “I’m Sharpay’s baby!” – a phrase I never thought I’d hear outside a musical. Honestly, I can barely contain myself!

Jupiter’s affection for musical films doesn’t just extend to herself; her daughter, who is 11 months old and named Emerson, shares this love. Ashley, Emerson’s mom, shared that they often sing “We’re All in This Together” while shopping together. While these moments can sometimes make Jupiter feel a bit embarrassed, she also finds them heartwarming.

She went on to say, ‘This is so delightful,’ but after a solid week of replaying the music, she felt, ‘Alright…we’ve had enough. No need to listen to it again.’

As a devoted fan, my latest reaction to High School Musical is still as amusing as when I first watched it over a year ago – back then, I couldn’t help but think Troy Bolton (the character brilliantly played by Zac Efron) might just be my long-lost father. The hilarity never fades!

Ashley reminisced during the January 15th episode of the Breaking Beauty podcast that her little girl exclaimed, “Daddy!” but she responded with a firm “No, no, no,”. She then disclosed what led her daughter to think she was related to Zac Efron, simply because they both had dark hair.

In the realm of entertainment, the High School Musical films catapulted Zac Efron into the limelight as a bona fide Hollywood star. He then secured roles in films like 17 Again, Charlie St. Cloud, That Awkward Moment, Neighbors and its sequel, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, and the screen adaptation of Baywatch, where he displayed his now-famous physique alongside Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

In the year 2017, he revisited his musical foundation (having sung in the 2007 movie “Hairspray”), by appearing in “The Greatest Showman”. Following his portrayal of the notorious Ted Bundy in the 2019 Netflix film “Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile”, he accepted a role in an adventure documentary series titled “Killing Zac Efron”, ironically, which came very close to ending his life. Subsequently, he starred in “The Iron Claw” (2023) and “A Family Affair” (2024). To add to this, he finally received the coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in December 2023.

Personal Life: Efron was romantically involved with Vanessa Hudgens, who portrayed his onscreen love interest Gabriella Montez, for approximately four years before they separated in 2010. He then dated model Sam Miro from 2014 to 2016. In 2020, he started dating Australian model Vanessa Valladares but the relationship ended after less than a year.

In the realm of cinema, Hudgens gained prominence following her roles in the entire trilogy of High School Musical. Subsequently, she graced the screen in movies like Bandslam, Beastly, Sucker Punch, Spring Breakers, Machete Kills, Second Act and Bad Boys for Life.

She shared with The Guardian during an August 2018 interview that her experience in High School Musical was an amazing ride, but it significantly altered the direction she had envisioned for her career. Instead, she’s always dreamt of being an indie actress, starring in films where she plays characters like a drug addict, stripper, or prostitute. This ambition took root in her since she was around 11 years old.

2015 saw Vanessa Hudgens make her first appearance on Broadway as part of a revival of the musical “Gigi”. The following year, she went back to her roots in music by playing Rizzo in Fox’s live production of “Grease”. Fast forward to 2019, Hudgens participated in another live Fox performance, this time in “Rent”. She also starred in the film adaptation of “tick, tick…BOOM!”, a musical created by Jonathan Larson, who is the author of “Rent”. In 2024, she triumphed on “The Masked Singer” competition. Besides her acting and singing careers, Hudgens co-founded brands like Caliwater and Know Beauty.

2011 marked a year following Hudgens’ breakup with Zac Efron, which was when she started dating actor Austin Butler. However, they parted ways in early 2020. In December 2023, Hudgens tied the knot with MLB player Cole Tucker after three years of dating. Just three months later, Hudgens unveiled her pregnancy on the 2024 Oscars red carpet by showcasing her baby bump. She and her husband welcomed their child that summer.
