Zac Efron Vanessa Hudgens: Hudgens Reveals Why ‘High School Musical’ Romance Didn’t Work! [PHOTOS]

For a few years, the relationship between Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens gave the world a lot of talk, as it meant the two stars from the huge Disney Channel hit "High School Musical" were together in real life - but now, the actress has spoken about their time together, and it seems things weren't as nice on the inside.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens were together for about five years, as both of them became superstars after the success of the television movie and its sequels, but it seems fame and fortune wasn't nearly enough to keep these two together.

Five years after Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens broke up, The Huffington Post reports that the actress has told the world the reasons why she couldn't take being Efron's girlfriend anymore, and the logic behind the whole thing seems completely shocking: she was fed up with how much fan attention the "Hairspray" actor was getting.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens abruptly ended their relationship in 2010 after they started dating while shooting the first "High School Musical" film, and a lot has been said since about why they'd parted different ways, but it's only now that matters begin to clear up.

In a recent interview with The New York Times, for the first time the "Spring Breakers" actress spoke about the Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens breakup, as she opened up to the magazine about what it was like to date someone for whom fans all over the world were so crazy about.

"I went through a phase when I was really mean because I was so fed up," Hudgens said, according to People Magazine. "Girls were running after him, and I was giving them death stares. Then I realized that's not what that's about. 'Spread the love, be a good person, they support you, be nice.'"

During the Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens relationship, the actress was involved in one of the first celebrity nude leaked pictures scandals.
