Who could forget Zanessa, AKA one of the most-beloved Disney channel couples of all time? While making a guest appearance on The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter podcast, Vanessa Hudgens confirmed they started dating in 2005 after auditioning for High School Musical. She even went so far as to credit Zac Efron for helping her get through those five years of intense fame, which catapulted both of their careers.
"It's just a really weird foreign thing to go through, and by being in a relationship, I feel like it kind of kept me stabilized and grounded, and I had someone to lean on who was going through it as well," she said.
During their five year stint, Hudgens released two albums V and Identified while Efron starred in Hairspray and Charlie St. Cloud. They ended their long-term relationship in 2010, a source telling E! Online that "it just ran its course."
