Be good to her
One of the
Disney Channel's original
teen idols.
She is best known for playing the roles of
Maddie Fitzpatrick,
Sharpay Evans,
Savannah Monroe, and
Candace Flynn.
Thanks to
High School Musical, she signed a
solo record deal with
Warner Bros. Records in 2006. Her debut album
Headstrong, was released in February 2007, and debuted at number five in the U.S. chart and sold 64,000 copies in the first week. It was later certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. A second studio album,
Guilty Pleasure, was released in 2009.
Discography:
- Headstrong (2007)
- Guilty Pleasure (2009)
Ashley Tisdale exhibits these tropes:
- All Girls Want Bad Boys: "Hot Mess"
- Break Up Song: "Over It", "Delete You", "Overrated", "It's Alright, It's Okay"
- Cut Song: The "Guilty Pleasure" song, which was recorded for the Guilty Pleasure album.
- Dawson Casting. In pretty much every role since she turned 20.
- Averted in Scary Movie 5 as she plays a young mother (a first for her) in her late 20's.
- Dye Hard / Dyeing For Your Art: a rare combination.
- Heterosexual Life Partners: With HSM co-star Vanessa Hudgens.
- I Am Not Spock: She is still mainly associated with her roles as Maddie and Sharpay, and to a lesser extent, Candace.
- Intercourse with You: "He Said She Said", "Headstrong".
- Large Ham: She was the local Ham in HSM and is Candace Flynn. One wonders how she holds up her voice from the constant screaming.
- Averted as Savannah in Hellcats, where she managed to be a lot more restrained.
- Ms. Fanservice: In most of her music videos, and as Bethany in Aliens in the Attic.
- New Sound Album: Guilty Pleasure was a pop rock record.
- Platonic Life Partners: With HSM co-star Zac Efron.
- Romantic Two-Girl Friendship: Most prominently with Vanessa Hudgens. They even have their own Portmanteau Couple Name, "Ashnessa".
- Rock Star Song: "Suddenly".
- She Is All Grown Up: Why she took part in Allure's annual nude celeb photo shoot ("I want people to notice I'm a grown woman"; she is 26). Although the fact she had her own offshoot Disney Channel movie reprising her High School Musical role just a few months later doesn't exactly help her cause.
- Though her more recent roles such as Sons Of Anarchy seem to be pointing towards more adult.
- Silly Love Songs: "We'll Be Together", "Me Without You", "So Much For You"
- Stalker with a Crush: "Don't Touch".
- Spiritual Successor: To Britney Spears, music-wise. on her first album. Hilary Duff music wise on her second album and is technically a follow up behind Hilary after Hilary started the trend of singing/songwriting/acting/producing coming from Disney.
- Title Track: Both albums thus far.
