Vanessa Hudgens is on the cover/spread of CosmoGirl, doing a story on what her day is like, ala a day in the life of Vanessa Hudgens, and find out what her and Zac Efron are really like in private. CosmoGirl has a peek on what are Vanessa and Zac are in real life:

“When she sees Zac, she runs over and they kiss, oblivious to the dozen of us in the room. She rubs his stomach, he puts his arm around her — these gestures say more than any statement she could make.”

Well, there you go, i’m not surprised..she would do anything to keep her man anyway..btw, Vanessa Hudgens, star of High School Musical TV movies and 2 albums under her belt is half-Filipino. Her mother is from the Philippines thus the darker features.

She did not wanted to end her Cosmo Girl interview without a word of advice to fellow teenage girls out there:

“You have to think it through, not just do something spur of the moment,” she says. “So that after it happens you won’t regret it. I think girls can be infatuated with their boyfriends and they have to remember that they come first.”

Yeah right..just check out this Vanessa Hudgens racy pics…
