This seems to be an important phase in the life of Vanessa Hudgens. Not only does she have to move on after her break up with long-time boyfriend Zac Efron, but this is also the time when she has to shed the skin of the sweet little Disney princess and prove to the world that she is more than that.

In the March issue of Details magazine, Vanessa poses in various provocative, ‘mature’ shots in a wet bathing suit. This shoot might prove to be the ritualistic one that every teen sweetheart goes through to catapult herself into womanhood.

In the magazine, Vanessa talks about all that’s on her mind, ranging from her breakup up with Zac, chatting with Quentin Tarantino, her upcoming movie ‘Sucker Punch’ and how she trained with Navy Seals for it and her other movie ‘Journey to the Center of the Earth’.

“Throughout this whole movie we’re trudging through the jungle. So, of course, we’re sweating. I can’t tell you how much time is spent putting oil on my chest. And Evian. Spraying Evian bottles on my chest and my arms and my forehead, but mostly my chest. Just to look like I’m sweating,” the actress explained.

Umm, is she trying too hard to play a slutty bimbo by talking about her chest!?
