Vanessa Hudgens was involved in another controversy after nude photos of her leaked anew with sources saying that the Hollywood star is worried about her career.
Several topless and fully-naked photos of Hudgens went viral online on Saturday, which is reportedly a part of a series of massive online leak that first started earlier this month.
One source close to Hudgens told Hollywood Life that the actress is upset about the photos. She was also involved in a similar incident when she was still known as the star of hit movie High School Musical, but she is more upset with the recent incident.
"She has learned to accept that it happened before and there really isn't anything she can do about it," the source was quoted as saying. "She is still upset, and now that it has happened again, she is even more rocked by it because she really wants to be known as a serious actress."
According to the source, Hudgens fears that it could affect her acting career, thinking that producers and decision-makers might think twice in picking her for a certain role after the photos spread out on different social networking websites.
"With these new photos out, in her eyes she thinks it taints what people might think of her when it comes to producers and decision-makers for her career," the source said. "She is very upset and is looking to have her people do something about it more strongly this time."
Hudgens has yet to release an official statement about the incident. In 2007, the then-18-year-old actress apologized to her fans, and also expressed regret about her decision to take those photos.
"I want to apologize to my fans, whose support and trust means the world to me," Hudgens said seven years ago. "I am embarrassed over this situation and regret having ever taken these photos."
Aside from Hudgens, nude photos of Mary-Kate Olsen, Avril Lavigne, Hayden Panettiere, Lake Bell, Leelee Sobieski, Aly and AJ Michalka, soccer star Hope Solo and Kim Kardashian also went viral online.
Earlier this month, photos of stars like Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Ariana Grande also made headlines. After the incident Lawrence also feared about how the controversy will affect her Hollywood career.
