We never thought we'd see Vanessa Hudgens looking anything less than perfect, so these photos have shocked us!
She has been snapped sporting a cropped bowl cut, lip and eyebrow piercings, neck tattoos and it looks like she's packed on a few kilos too.
The transformation is for her new movie “Gimme Shelter” in which she plays a homeless person. Vanessa admits she’s loved becoming a “serious actor”.
She’s playing a girl who gets kicked out of home after falling pregnant and decides to keep the baby...slightly different to the story behind High School Musical.
What do you think of her new look? Do you think she can pull off the role?

If there's a hell, I'm already in it.
From The Hangover director Todd Phillips, "Due Date" stars Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis as two unlikely companions thrown together on a road trip that turns out to be as life-changing as it is outrageous. Downey plays Peter Highman, an expectant first-time father whose wife's due date is only days away. As he hurries to catch a flight home to Los Angeles from Atlanta to be at her side for the birth, his best intentions go completely awry when a chance encounter with aspiring actor and disaster-magnet Ethan Tremblay (Galifianakis) leads to the two of them being tossed off the plane and placed on a no-fly list...while Peter's luggage, wallet and ID take off without him. With no alternatives in sight, Peter is forced to hitch a ride with Ethan and his canine travelling companion on what turns out to be a cross-country road trip that will destroy several cars, numerous friendships and Peter's last nerve.

Paul Conroy is not ready to die. But when he wakes up 6 feet underground with no idea of who put him there or why, life for the truck driver and family man instantly becomes a hellish struggle for survival.
Buried with only a cell phone and a lighter, his contact with the outside world and ability to piece together clues that could help him discover his location are maddeningly limited. Poor reception, a rapidly draining battery, and a dwindling oxygen supply become his worst enemies in a tightly confined race against time. Fighting panic, despair and delirium, Paul has only 90 minutes to be rescued before his worst nightmare comes true.
Release Date: 23rd February 2011
