Vanessa Hudgens: Sherman Oaks Party Girl

With her new movie "Sucker Punch" having just hit theaters, Vanessa Hudgens celebrated with a night on the town in Sherman Oaks, CA on Friday (March 25).

The "High School Musical" hottie hit up local hotspot Trousdale with a gal pal as she tried to thwart paparazzi efforts by covering her face with a grey hoodie.

At one point, Miss Hudgens suffered a handbag malfunction - as the contents of her purse dumped all over the ground as she was getting in and out of her ride.

As for "Sucker Punch," the Zack Snyder directed flick enjoyed a late night surge at the box office to ease into the top spot by pulling in $8.1 million from 3,033 theaters.
