SHOCK! Vanessa Hudgens in naked picture mystery

New photos of High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens in the nude have allegedly emerged online.

Gossip columnist Perez Hilton posted the snaps on his blog yesterday.

But he took them down after he was allegedly contacted by 20-year-old Vanessa's lawyers.   

‘We were uncertain whether the latest bunch of photos were real or not,’ he writes. ‘Well, they're definitely legit!

‘Lawyers for Vanessa Hudgens contacted PerezHilton.com and demanded that we remove the pics.

‘They also claim that she was underage when these latest pics were taken. Naturally, we obliged and removed the images in question.’

In 2007, Vanessa, who is dating Zac Efron, apologised to her fans after a nude snap of her was leaked online.

Her reps are yet to confirm the legitimacy of the latest photos.
