Disney darling Vanessa Hudgens attended the world premiere of IRIS — A Journey Into The World of Cinema by Cirque du Soleil in Hollywood where the Beastly star took some time to answer questions about dating and her career.
Many assumed Vanessa might bring recent flame Austin Butler to the red carpet after the pair were spotted being overtly affectionate, but instead the actress arrived with her sister in tow.
