Vanessa Hudgens had Zoom pole dance classes

Vanessa Hudgens had Zoom pole dancing lessons during lockdown.

The 32-year-old actress admitted she turned to “multiple hobbies” to pass the time amid the coronavirus pandemic, but the “toughest” was her online dance classes, which left her battered and bruised.

She said: “I’ve had multiple hobbies, I’ve definitely leaned into multiple things. At one point I got a pole and I was taking Zoom lessons, pole dancing, which was tough. I had a lot of bruises, but it was no joke.

“Eating, I did a lot of eating, I made a lot of anklets and necklaces and bracelets. Definitely leaned into some art, did a bit of painting and coloring, a lot of mu and a lot of movies and TV.”

The ‘High School Mual’ actress met her boyfriend, Cole Tucker, during a Zoom meditation class during the pandemic and she credits the fact they’re both “weirdos” as to why they get on so well.

She told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “We’re just like the same, we’re very similar, we’re very similar. We’re such weirdos, it’s wonderful.”

Vanessa has also kept busy working on her first animated movie role, as Sunny in ‘My Little Pony: A New Generation’ and she had a great experience recording her lines.

She said: “It was so nice. I’m a cozy broad, so I love showing up to work and being able to stay cozy all day and really just digging into this character and this story. And you know, it’s such a great story, it’s such a great character, I just loved every minute of it.

“I was so excited. I think they were kind of taken aback by how excited I was.”

Vanessa recently described her new beau as “perfect” for her and insisted she was making it her priority to remain “grateful for everything”.

She said: “He’s just kind of perfect for me. I am [happy]. I really am.

“I think that it’s also so important to stay grateful for everything that you have in life.

“I’ve been making that a priority, and I feel like it’s just been making magic happen all the more.”
