Bye-bye, High School Musical! Hello...nudity?!

Fresh off the heels of boyfriend Zac Efron's risqué photo shoot in Interview magazine, Vanessa Hudgens says she'd consider getting all un-High School Musical on us, too.

How so? Read on to find out.

"I will show nudity in a film when the time is right," Hudgens, 20, told us at this weekend's Diesel Only the Brave cologne launch party in West Hollywood. "Right now, I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it, but like I said, when the time's right, if it's an amazing movie that I'm really passionate about and that's what it calls for, then we'll see."

Efron, 21, raised eyebrows in a recent issue of Interview when he ditched his family-friendly Troy Bolton alter ego for a sexed-up stud rolling around in the mud with nude model Edita Vilkeviciute.

Meanwhile, Hudgens was Zac-less at the Diesel soiree, but that didn't stop the starlet from having fun.

The former Disney darling, dressed cute and cazh in a white, ribbed Hanes tank, was all smiles at the event. She spent most of the night giggling and chatting with a female friend.

Hudgens will be busy with work soon enough when she shoots not one but two flicks starting this summer: Beastly is a modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast, while Sucker Punch! is the story of girl who is sent to a mental institution by her wicked stepfather.

Common, the face of Diesel's new scent and a star in the upcoming Terminator: Salvation, entertained at the bash, performing tracks from his current album, Universal Mind Control, as well as classics such as "Go."
