Context Trivia / AshleyTisdale

Go To

1* ContractualPurity: She caused a stir among MoralGuardians when she posed nude for ''Allure'' magazine, even though she was twenty-six at the time. However this didn't hurt her standing with Disney, and she continued to voice Candace on ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb''.
2* CutSong: The unreleased title track from ''Guilty Pleasure''.
3* DawsonCasting: 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.
4* DyeingForYourArt: She dyed her brown hair blonde for ''Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody'' and has alternated between that and brown for years.
5* FakeIrish: Minor example. Maddie's family is supposed to be entirely Irish, but Ashley is only half-Irish on her father's side.
6* IAmNotSpock:
7** She is still mainly associated with her roles as Maddie and Sharpay, and to a lesser extent, Candace.
8** This has gotten to the point of where if she tries something new or appears in a movie, haters of her specifically because of her ''Film/HighSchoolMusical'' days boycott said song or movie involving her. She can't break out of it.
9* PlayingAgainstType: ''Film/HighSchoolMusical'' was her first time playing the AlphaBitch. She had auditioned for Gabriella first.
10** In ''VideoGame/HouseOfAshes'' she plays a no-nonsense CIA agent leading a marine unit during the [[UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror Iraq War]], a significant contrast to most of her well-known film and TV roles.
11* PromotedFanboy: A huge fan of ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'', she got to release a cover of "Kiss The Girl".
12* ThrowItIn: She ad-libbed Sharpay's bathroom door kicking move in ''Film/HighSchoolMusical''.
13* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
14** She auditioned for London on ''The Suite Life'' when the character was envisioned as a Paris Hilton {{Expy}}. Brenda Song likewise auditioned for Maddie. Realising that Brenda had a natural affinity for playing TheDitz, they swapped them around. In an alternate reality episode, the actresses are in their roles as originally planned (where Maddie is the heiress and London works at the candy counter).
15** She auditioned for the role of Karen Smith in ''Film/MeanGirls'', but lost out to Amanda Seyfried.
