She might replace the late night talk show host when he leaves.

I think she might have more success in daytime, but if she can find the right hook, she can kill it late night too.

This former Disney actress has been killing it hosting this year and is being discussed to replace the late night talk show host when he leaves.

Vanessa Hudgens May Actually Be the Most Powerful Person in Hollywood

How many actresses can you think of that have been in both a Zack Synder film and co-starred with Mary-Kate Olsen in the same year? How many musicians can you name that have made bona fide-hit debut albums and followed them up with iconically cringey songs about dancing all night in your favorite ugly sneakers? She’s even running the gamut of Netflix’s vast spectrum of quality, starring in both three installments of a chintzy Christmas rom-com franchise and garnering awards conversation in tick…tick…BOOM!

Vanessa Hudgens is creating her own myth and doing it all on her terms, with one very important guiding principle: she will show up to the opening of an envelope.

Along with all of those other ventures, you can also find Vanessa Hudgens covering the Met Gala red carpet for Vogue and the Oscars red carpet for ABC. Where other actresses might consider those kinds of gigs beneath them after two decades in the business, Hudgens will happily grab a mic at any industry event and just start chatting a fellow star’s ear off. Sometimes I wonder whether she’s actually been booked to do these events or if she has just shown up in a gown and gotten to work, knowing that if she proceeds with enough conviction that no one will stop her. Someone had to fill Maria Menounos’ shoes while she remains trapped in the Noovie Arcade.

You can find Vanessa Hudgens just about anywhere you look—at one point, she’s proving herself as a rare reason for live television network musicals to exist with her roles in FOX’s Grease: Live and Rent: Live, and then she’s hocking birth control that implants into your arm during the commercial break. Unlike her High School Musical costar Ashley Tisdale—who, beyond a modest career in music and a steady gig in voice acting, has kept a pretty low profile—Hudgens has preferred to keep her star shining as bright as possible by working herself down to the bones of her perfectly-manicured fingers. – Source
