Vanessa Hudgens reacts to Austin Butler’s awkward clash with Oscars
Vanessa Hudgens wants her fans to emulate Malala Yousafzai’s book after her awkward confrontation with Austin Butler.
After the ex-partners made headlines Sunday at the 2023 Oscars at Vanity Fair for seemingly ignoring each other, Hudgens took to Instagram to post Jimmy Kimmel at the ceremony with Yousafzai video of the conversation.
In the clip, the 55-year-old Oscars host asks the 25-year-old activist what she thinks of Harry Styles and Chris Pine’s Spitgate – only to have Yousafzai say he “just said[s] About peace. “
Hudgens, 34, is asking her followers to do the same.
“Let’s all get on the peace train I’m talking about,” the High School Musical star wrote. “About?”
She and Butler, 31, have yet to comment on their lack of interaction, during which Hudgens stared at her phone to avoid eye contact as she ran past the actor.
Before waiting for a bus next to Sharon Stone in Beverly Hills, California, the Oscar nominee appeared to glance in his ex-girlfriend’s direction.
The former couple dated from 2011 to 2020 after meeting mutual friend Ashley Tisdale at a party.
Butler has been dating model Kaia Gerber since their split. For her part, Hudgens recently announced her engagement to MLB player Kortak.
Butler spoke cryptically about their previous relationship in May 2022, telling GQ that he was looking for a partner who had a “similar base” to him and wanted “the same things.”
