Teen starlet Vanessa Hudgens has hit out at claims her naked picture scandal was deliberately leaked to attract publicity. The 19-year-old High School Musical star was last year shamed by a naughty full frontal nude snap, supposedly taken to titillate boyfriend Zac Efron, which found its way onto the internet.

The controversy angered Hudgens' bosses at Disney - and she is still smarting from the shame of the world seeing her undressed.

Hudgens says, "It wasn't a reach for attention. Nobody was meant to see it. It's unfortunate that everybody did.

"It shows that you can't trust everyone. I'm much better now. But I don't like talking about it."
