Hey M Girls-

Beastly hits theaters this weekend and M had the opp to sit down with the flick's star Vanessa to chat about movie, feeling like an outsider and her fan-love for Mary-Kate Olsen!

M: Your character, Lindy, is an outsider at school. Have you ever had any outcast moments where you felt like you didn't fit in?

Vanessa: "Oh my gosh, yeah. I mean my entire time in elementary school I had one friend who she was actually a part of the popular crew. One day she decided to introduce me to the crew and they're like 'No, she can't hang with us.' I was like, 'Oh okay, awesome nice to meet you, too!'"

M: How do you recover from something like that?

Vanessa: You know, I just told myself it's not worth it and not worth my time. If they're gonna be like that, then they're not people I want to be friends with!

M: Your co-star in this movie is Mary-Kate Olsen. Did you ever watch her when she was on Full House?

Vanessa: I've never watched Full House, but I loved the home videos she and her sister put out. I adored them! I've been in her fan club ever since I was seven. But when I met her, I wanted to make sure I came off as a friend rather than a fan!

So let's dish: Are you excited to see Beastly in the theaters? Comment back!

Breaking news M Girls!

It's been just a few short months since Vanessa and Zac called it quits. Since then, the two exes have spent sooo much time together, many believed they were on the road to getting back together. But now it seems Vanessa could be falling for someone new. At Victoria Justice's 18th birthday party this past weekend, our spy at the bash couldn't help but notice the insane chemistry Vanessa had with her Journey 2: The Mysterious Island co-star Josh Hutcherson! The duo spent the entire night on the dance floor together and acted like they were DEF into each other as more than just friends. Does this mean things are officially o-v-e-r for Zac and Vanessa? We'll keep you updated as more info comes in!

So let's dish:
-Do you think Vanessa and Josh make a cute couple? Comment back!

Hey M Girls-

Yesterday in NYC, Vanessa took a break from attending fashion shows to get a new tattoo! V has been wanting to get the tat for what seems like forevs. In an interview with Elle magazine, Vanessa revealed:

"My name actually means butterfly and I'm getting a butterfly tattooed on my neck like next week . . . It's literally been like six years that I wanted one and I finally figured out what I want, where I want it and when I get home I'm pretty sure I know the artist that I want to do it so I'm going to go get it."

So without further ado, here it is!

So let's dish: What do you think of Vanessa's tattoo? Would you ever get a tattoo? Of what, and where? Comment back!

Hey M Girls!

We were super-psyched to be weeks away from seeing Beastly starring Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer on July 30 -- but turns out we're all going to have to wait a bit longer. The flick's now pushed back to March 18, 2011! Since it's so far away, we're thinking they're spending some extra time making the movie even better!

Let's dish:
-Are you disappointed the movie's pushed back? Will you see Beastly when it finally does come out? Do you think it'll be a good flick?

Hey M Girls!

So yesterday, M got to chat with Vanessa Hudgens, who is set to star in her flick, Beastly, on June 30 and since her and Zac stay so committed, we wanted to ask her about other hot new Hollywood couples! Well, guess what? When we asked her about Nick and Selena, she sounded totally happy for them...and didn't know anything about reports of them spitting! Here's what she said:

"Nick and Selena? It's just another relationship. I'm glad people are finding people here! And are happy together!" Vanessa dished to M.

So what do you think M girls? Do you think Selena and Nick have definitely called it off? Are you rooting for Zac and Vanessa?

Hey M Girls!

We have a BRAND NEW celeb advice column on mmm-mag.com. Each day at 8:00 PM/EST we'll post a reader question and have a different star answer it!! Today, we have Vanessa Hudgens giving the 411 on how to avoid bullying!

M Reader jane913 asked:
There's this one mean guy in one of my classes. My friend said he's gossiping about me in her math class. I even used to like him and I don't know why -- but now he's bullying me too! What do I do?

And Vanessa's answer is:
"Don't let bullies get to you, that's the best advice I can give you. Because once you start letting it bother you, they start feeling accomplished. So I think that if you really don't let it make you upset, the bullies will be defeated by you basically killing them with kindness. And that's been my motto for the longest time -- get to them through kindness!"
