Here's Ashley Tisdale doing the premiere thing once again for High School Musical 3, this time in Rome. Have you ever wondered how many times an actor or actress must be forced to sit through their movie with so many different premieres in different locations? I can only imagine the horror of watching HSM 3 once much less over and over again, so that must explain why half the time Ashley looks irritated at these things.

Us Weekly held an event to celebrate the annual release of their Hot Hollywood issue and two of the young starlets to show up were Ashley Tisdale and Becki Newton.

I had no idea who Becki Newton was before this other than seeing her on the red carpet at random events, and it turns out she's a regular on the show Ugly Betty. She may be hot, but there's still no way in hell I'm watching that.

As for Ashley Tisdale, whether or not I find her attractive changes on a daily basis depending on the latest photographs. She always has these awkward facial expressions that make her look worse, and then next thing you know she's at the beach showing off her tight little bod in a bikini. The moral of the story, as I believe the great Helen Keller once said: a great ass can make up for an awkward smile.

Here's Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens at the premiere for High School Musical 3: Senior Year. The only reason any of us have ever heard of these two is because of these High School Musical movies, yet it occurred to me that I've never even seen a clip from either of the first two movies because I don't have a child with poor taste (just kidding, I think we know pretty much all kids have bad taste).

So it wasn't until this past week when I saw a commercial for HSM 3 that I realized how truly horrible these flicks are and I appreciated on an entirely new level how lucky I am to not have a child who's old enough yet to subject me to them. Moral of the story: think long and hard before you have children because before you know it you'll be going to see movies like this.

To be fair, Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens are a nice visual distraction for Dad, so it could be a lot worse. Sorry girls, I didn't include any photos of Zac Efron because there was already enough estrogen to begin with.
