Vanessa Hudgens Performing In Grease In Honour Of Her Late Father Is Truly Remarkable
Vanessa Hudgens suffered a huge loss this weekend; her father passed away from stage 4 cancer. While so many of us would have been too devastated to leave the house, Hudgens gathered all of her strength and took to the stage in the production of Grease Live. Vanessa was playing Rizzo, and it was a truly remarkable thing to see someone be so strong in the face of such a heavy loss.
Her friends and co-stars praised her brave performance on twitter.
WOW @VanessaHudgens singing 'Worst Things' had me in tears. Just brilliant #GreaseLive

Vanessa performed a chilling rendition of "There are worse things I could do" and the show was dedicated to her late father.
