Rumor has it: Hudgens on pregnancy rumors

Before the wedding bells, Hudgens' spooky chic bachelorette bash in Aspen was the talk of the town. But when pregnancy rumors started swirling from a few snaps, she wasn't having it. "That is so rude," she clapped back, with an eyeroll emoji to boot. Hudgens stood her ground, defending her real woman, real body stance against the disrespectful chatter.
