Vanessa Hudgens has become the latest celebrity to be targeted by trolls commenting on her body.

Back in March, the 35-year-old High School Musical alum made headlines when she surprised fans by turning up to the Academy Awards showcasing her baby bump.

Fast forward to July, and the singer and actress welcomed her first baby with MLB star husband Cole Tucker.

As the new star embraces motherhood, she recently shared a photo of herself at a Halloween-themed restaurant, captioning the post: "lil spooky date night".

Sharing two photos of herself enjoying her time at the restaurant while wearing a low-cut black top, the star's comments section sadly became rife with people commenting on her breasts.

In particular, many people were making crude jokes and quips about how Hudgens' chest appears to have gotten bigger since becoming a mom.

"That baby ain’t starving, that’s for sure," one person responded, with another adding: "The melons are meloning."

Celebrity hairstylist Danielle Priano quickly called out the sheer number of comments talking about the actress' chest, writing: "Not everyone talking about your t****s when you just had a baby?!!"

And responding to an Instagram user who asked "when did those happen", another person bluntly replied: "Milk!??? Simple and easy, as you did as newborn, don't be shock."

A third wrote: "Y’all need help in these comments."

Other fans also praised Hudgens for keeping her newborn child off social media and respecting their privacy.


The post has since been updated with the message: "Comments on this post have been limited."

Sadly, this is not the first time Hudgens has received unwanted comments from trolls on social media.

Back in October 2023, Hudgens had sparked pregnancy rumors following her bachelorette party in Aspen, Colorado.

However, speaking on the She Pivots podcast several months later in March, she candidly shared how the "rude" pregnancy speculation made her feel "fat" during what should have been "the happiest" time of her life.

"It was disrespectful," she expressed. "I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me."

Back in May, Hudgens opened up to E! News about sharing her film and television work with her child (or any future children).

"I'll show my kids all my work," she admitted. "That's why I chose things along the way in my career. I wanted to make sure that when I did have kids, there would be something for them to watch at every age."
