While Vanessa Hudgens made it through 2010 without a nude photo scandal, it looks like the same won't be true of 2011.
A number of X-rated photos purported to be the former "High School Musical" star circulated online Monday, following similar incidents in 2007 and 2009.
The latest batch, posted on sites like MediaTakeOut.com and Egotastic.com, allegedly show the 22-year-old kissing another woman and posing naked.
In one particularly raunchy pic, the brunette featured is laying down with her legs spread and her hand reaching toward her crotch.
The photos were leaked along with naked pictures allegedly of 18-year-old actress Alexa Nikolas, best known for her role on the now-defunct Nickelodeon series "Zoey 101," which starred Jamie Lynn Spears.
Nikolas, who appears alongside Miley Cyrus is the upcoming movie "LOL," is reportedly the girl kissing Hudgens in one of the photos.
Aside from both being former child stars, Hudgens featured Nikolas in the 2006 video for her song, "Come Back to Me."
Hudgens, who appears in a pink bikini on the cover of the April issue of Shape, issued an apology to her fans after her first set of naked pictures leaked online in 2007, saying she was "embarrassed over the situation" and regrets "having ever taken these photos."
At the time, Disney – calling the pics "a lapse in judgment" – backed the starlet and dismissed rumors she would be fired from the "High School Musical" series.
Though the kiddie network said it hoped Hudgens "learned a valuable lesson," that didn't seem apparent when more pictures hit the Web in 2009.
According to TMZ.com, these latest pics are few years old.
After the first two scandals, the actress opened up about the fallout in the October 2009 issue of Allure, admitting the controversies affected her film career.
"Whenever anybody asks me, would I do nudity in a film, if I say that it's something I'm not comfortable with, they're like, 'Bulls--t, you've already done it,'" she told the magazine.
"If anything, it makes it more embarrassing, because that was a private thing. It's screwed up that someone screwed me over like that," she said. "At least some people are learning from my mistakes."
Just don't count Nikolas as one of them.
