Ashley Michelle Tisdale (born July 2, 1985) is an American actress and singer. After appearing in several television roles during the late 1990s and early 2000s, she became known to young audiences for playing Maddie Fitzpatrick on the Disney Channel Original Series "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody" and Sharpay Evans in the Disney Channel Original Movie "High School Musical". Tisdale has also pursued a music career and released her debut album Headstrong on February 6, 2007. She also participated in High School Musical: The Concert and reprised her role as Sharpay Evans in "High School Musical 2". Tisdale had originally auditioned for the role of Gabriella Montez, but was eventually cast as Sharpay Evans, because it was felt that her alto voice suited a darker character. She reprised her role as Sharpay Evans in High School Musical 2 which premiered on August 17, 2007. She appeared in the Disney Channel Games 2006 as captain of the Green Team. Tisdale underwent a rhinoplasty procedure on November 30, 2007. According to Tisdale, this was done for health-related reasons and not out of a belief in plastic surgery; her "septum was 80 percent deviated" and she had "two small fractures on [her] nose", and this was interfering with her breathing. She spoke to People magazine about the surgery, saying that it was important to her to be honest with her fans.

Ashley Tisdale seen on Sep 25 2009 in Los Angeles, CA. Teen queen Ashley Tisdale hit up the red carpet of the 2009 Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party in LA last night, September 25, opting for an all-black option for her night on the town. Ash rocked a black frock with front draping, embellished shoulders and nude panels, and for a dress similar to hers, check out one of the numerous similar options featured on CoutureCandy, such as Suzabelle's Deco Cocktail Dress in Black, Generra's Long Tank Dress in Black, Nanette Lepore's Is This Love Knit Dress in Black, Rachel Pally's Luella Dress in Black, or Gold Hawk's Drawstring Mini Dress in Black. Accessory wise, the Tis kept it pretty minimal, choosing only a pair of killer snakeskin heels and a double finger ring (try Erica Anenberg's Double Finger Ring in Sterling Silver). Overall, though, what do you think of Ashley's look, and her newly re-blonded hair? I personally think that being blonde fits her oh so much better than being brunette. While Ashley is now happily dating music video director Scott Speer, Ash recently had a run-in with her ex boyfriend, Jared Murillo, at the Los Angeles premiere of the new film Fame. The two were spotted hugging on the red carpet (and in front of tons of photographers and paparazzi), so I don't think that her current boo has anything to worry about. Hey, they were probably just glad to see one another!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Aug 09 2009 in Universal City, CA. Ashley Tisdale was greeted by a ton of photographers, reporters and fans at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards earlier this evening, August 9, at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City. Ashley was rockin' it on the red carpet wearing a Used/Unused bustier and skirt and studded Christian Louboutin stilettos. For a similar, try one of Lotta Stensson's Shirred Mini Tube Dresses in black or peacock or Graham & Spencer's Strapless Tube Dress in Black) with a black bracelet (check out CC Skye's Hinge Bracelet in Black). What do you think of AT's TCA outfit? Do you like? I think she (or her stylist) definitely did her right. Ashley has made quite the impression for those younger fans of hers, as her latest film, Aliens in the Attic, has done pretty well at the box office. Of her idols, Ashley says, "Vanessa Hudgens and I were at the American Music Awards, freaking out because we were sitting next to Celine Dion. Then she turned round and thanked me for bei ng a role model for her son. There we were; new best friends with Celine. And Ihad always looked up to her. She continued, "I don't see myself as that because no one is perfect. But when kids say it I feel it's cool because I never try to be anything other than myself. My mom was my role model as a kid, never celebrities. Kids need people that are reachable and for me it was my mom because she is confident and strong. I've been in the business since I was three and she's been with me every step of the way. Even now I want to make my parents proud and never let them down." What do you think - is Ashley a good role model for young teens?
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jul 13 2009 in Los Angeles, CA. Ashley Tisdale was caught by the paparazzi while she was showing her newly purchased home in LA to her manager and her dad on July 13, construction workers finishing up the final details of Tisdale's alleged new digs. For her casual, summery look, Ash started with a breezy white cami (try Da-Nang's Silk Cami in White or Joe's Jeans' Mattie Cami in Sea) and paired it with super-short, bleached out Siwy denim cutoffs (like Rich & Skinny's Lover Footloose Shorts in Vintage) a tough-looking chocolate brown boots. For the rest of her outfit, A.Tis snagged a classic pair of aviators, a luscious nude leather bag, and a long silver necklace (similar to Rachel Leigh Jewelry's Heart Statement Necklace in Pink), in addition to a mega bottle of Fiji Water. Ashley definitely seems to be growing up and coming into her own lately, as she recently got her first tattoo (partial photos insinuate that the tat might be the Italian word "bella") and her new album, "Guilty Pleasure," is a more mature sound for Ash. An early review of the disc on Associated Content says that the lead single, "'It's Alright, It's Ok' comes off as a Kelly Clarkson rip off, a sweet-voiced verse and an explosive pop hook. While this formula has been done time and time again, it's still an uplifting fun song without the big sounds Clarkson would deliver." On a more positive note, the review continues, "'Masquerade' stands out as one of those pop rock tracks that have potential on the sophomore effort. Loud guitars and shouting vocals make this a fun fist pumping tune about contorting with a love interest to make him happy. 'Erase and Rewind' takes on the same style but amps up the bass drum in her dance pop tune that Katy Perry could have handed to her." Will any of you be checking out her new album when it drops?
Ashley Tisdale seen on May 26 2009 in Studio City, CA. Teen queen Ashley Tisdale was spotted getting her daily fix of Coffee Bean in Studio City on May 26, opting not to smile for the paparazzi as she headed back to her car. For Ashley's preppy-meets-edgy springtime look, start with a fun striped top (Autumn Cashmere's Rugby Striped Halter in Green is perfect for warm climates) with cutoff denim shorts (grab Tag Jeans' Lima Cut Off Short in Royal Vintage) and then toughen up your look with a worn-down pair of flat motorcycle boots. Ash's look like Fiorentini & Baker to me. To finish off your look, snag a killer wallet (I love the flirty shade of Carla Mancini's Saddle Stitch Wallet in Rose Crocodile) and a classic pair of gold-rimmed Ray-Ban aviators. What do you think of AT's look here - love it or leave it? I personally think Ashley looks great, and love the studded detailing on the pockets of her shorts. Since the media is always obsessed with celebrity weight loss and gain, OK! Magazine is dishing on Ashley's current state. After her breakup from Jared Murillo, Ash allegedly went to town on French fries, bread and McDonalds, as she says, "I've been very skinny my whole life. I don't really like this look. I have started working out, so I do try to limit carbs and add protein. I want to build a little muscle." I think Ashley's body is looking great these days - especially her super toned gams. However, she might have to spend a couple extra minutes pumping iron now that best bud Vanessa Hudgens has started cooking dinners. Ashley says "Vanessa's cooking a lot of dinner- she's pretty good at pasta and chicken." That would be a fun dinner party to sit in on!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Apr 13 2009 in Los Angeles, CA. Ashley Tisdale was spotted heading through LAX on April 13, joined by her mom and her puppy (which she toted along in an LV dog carrier) after a trip to Mexico. While her long brown hair looks a tad greasy in the photo on the left, I think that it is probably the most flattering shade I've seen on the Tis in recent memory (much better than the dark brown she was rocking for a while and much MUCH better than when she's unnaturally blonde). For her casual airport style, Ash donned a pair of flowy white pants (try Kushcush's ultra-comfy Promenade Pant in Black and White) paired with a cotton 3/4 sleeve hoodie (like Kerrigan's 3/4 Sleeve Hoodie in Grey), a blue burnout tee (similar to Love Couture's Blue Baroque Burnout Tunic), and a coral fringed scarf (check out A Graves' Colt 45 Scarf in Pink). Tisdale finished off her outfit with a pair of classic black Wayfarers, an oversized red stone ring (just like Femme Metale Jewelry's Carneilian Caged Gem Ring in Red), and a large black tote bag (like Linea Pelle's Lola Large Tote in Midnight). What are your thoughts on Ashley's comfy/cashe look - love it or leave it? In other Tisdale news, Ashley has opened up to "Access Hollywood" to dish on her previously painful love life. She says, "I actually have experienced being cheated on before." Her new single, "It's Alright, It's OK," has been described as a "fist-pumping breakup anthem," and Ashley says that the track "helps you to get over [a breakup] for sure." She continues, "Usually, you know, when I’m in that situation and there’s a break up or cheating, I would be the one to put on Kelly Clarkson — ‘Since U Been Gone,’ and kind of rock out to it... It made me feel so much better. So hopefully girls, you know, will think about my song like that." On whether or not she still speaks to the cheater who broke her heart, Ash advises to "forgive and forget. I’m friends with the guy who cheated on me… Not great friends because then he started dating my best friend… It was bad." He sounds like a loser!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Dec 04 2008 in Los Angeles, CA. "High School Musical" star Ashley Tisdale was spotted leaving a meeting at Warner Brothers Records in LA yesterday, December 4, looking like she's been definitely keeping up with the trends in her casual ensemble. To get Ashley's look, start with her jeans. For her day out, she chose Desert Blue's The Phoenix Skinny Jean in Soft Wash, paired with fringed boots and a striped tee (for those of you not living in sunny Los Angeles, check out Autumn Cashmere's Striped Crew Neck Sweater in Cherry Cola). Next up is what looks like some sort of leather vest, red shades, and a brown wrap bracelet similar to Linea Pelle Collection's Skinny Pyramid Stud Bracelet in Bark. She finished her look off with a pretty gold necklace (check out Jessica Elliot's Vermeil Initial Necklace) and a sly smile for the paps. While most celebrities truly look to other celebrities to inspire their style, Ashley is definitely no exception. When asked who her style icon was, she replied, "Gwen Stefani inspires my style. I love how she sets new trends, because I’m the type of person who tries different things." She went on to divulge on her fashion weakness, saying, "Purses, especially designer ones. I’m a purse freak." What do you think, dear readers- who is your celebrity style icon?
Ashley Tisdale seen on Aug 27 2008 in Santa Monica, CA. Ashley Tisdale hit up the In Style Magazine offices in Santa Monica yesterday, August 27, sporting a much darker and shorter 'do. Personally, I liked the longer, blonder waves Ash has been sporting lately, and think they are much more flattering for her face shape/coloring. What are your thoughts? The one good thing about hair, though, is it always grows back! For her outfit, Ashley chose a bright red embroidered top (like Cake Couture's Dogwood Embroidered Short Sleeve Shirt in Poppy) with light wash denim (like Pierce Jeans' Santa Barbara Pierson Slim Jean in Pacific) and an oversized brown leather Prada bag (check out a similar option from Rough Roses, the Kimberly Bag in Brown). For the rest of her look, Tisdale chose long beaded earrings (Gemma Redux's Kadie Earrings in Assorted have a similar feel to Ash's) with studded sandals and black Wayfarers. Cute and summery! While everyone knows that the "High School Musical" franchise has pretty much swept the nation, Ashley is now speaking out about how it is all because of the fans and that she loves meeting her fans in person. She says, "Our movie was really for the Disney Channel. We never expected it to be so huge- it's because of the fans that it is such a phenomenon, so it's always great to see them face to face." That is a great attitude to have, because these young celebrities need to remember that without the fans, they're nobody!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jul 29 2008 in Studio City, CA. Ashley Tisdale was spotted grabbing an iced beverage at Coffee Bean (shocking) in Studio City earlier today, July 29, looking very Fergalicious if I do say so myself. Can't you totally see Fergie rocking this outfit, complete with the hat? To get Ashley's breezy summertime look, start with a sheer blouse, like Walter's Ivory Lame Top and pair with casual white shorts, similar to Rails' Mila Short in White. Next up, grab a gold charm necklace with an always-in-fashion peace sign (just like Maya Brenner Designs' World Peace Necklace in Gold) and a pair of Wayfarers and you'll be all set. I know that Ashlee tends to look to other stars for fashion inspiration (Fergie, Mary-Kate Olsen (with those knee-high gladiator sandals) and Nicole Richie, just to name a few), but I like this look on her. It's fun without being too fussy. Works for me. While Ashley is definitely a bonafide Disney star, it seems that the Tis is longing for roles that are more "racy" and "edgy." Wonder if she'll sign on for HSM4, that is, if they decide to make it!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jul 11 2008 in Los Angeles, CA. From one Ashlee to another! Ashley Tisdale was spotted picking up Coffee Bean in LA on Friday, July 11, smiling politely for the lingering paparazzi who are starting to snap more and more pictures daily of the "HSM" star. Wearing a psychedelically patterned mini dress (Tricia Fix's Aubrey Mini Dress, in Yellow Brown Daisy and Orange Medallion, have similarly trippy patterns) with knee high brown boots and a gold charm necklace (check out Erica Anenberg's Charm Necklace in Gold), this outfit is totally one that Mischa Barton would wear. It seems that the Tizz has been turning to a lot of Hollywood's other fashionistas for inspiration lately (Mary-Kate Olsen in my most recent post, Mischa Barton in this post)... do you think that Ash has any stylistic originality of her own? While we all know that "High School Musical 3" is coming to the big screen soon, I wasn't aware that the last day of filming was so emotional for the cast- Ash in particular! Tisdale says, "We went into the last day thinking, 'It'll all be fine 'cause we're all really good friends and we're so close'. It wasn't even the last scene- we couldn't get through it. We were crying and just so emotional over the whole thing... It's definitely something that's tough to leave and say goodbye to." So I'm guessing there's no HSM4?
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jun 30 2008 in Beverly Hills, CA. Ashley Tisdale was spotted leaving the Byron Williams Salon in Beverly Hills on June 30 (although she just went to the Neil George Salon the day before... ugh so much pampering, so little time) looking like she totally snuck into Mary-Kate's closet and stole her gladiator sandals from her! MK started rocking these bad boys what seems like forever ago, but I will admit, they do look cute on Ash! Tisdale started her summertime look with a scoop neck black mini dress (LaROK's Rock Star Mini Dress in Black has the same silhouette as Ashley's, but is adorned with metal studs that give the dress a rocker edge, while Qi's Scoop Neck Dress in Blue Nights is also similar to Ashle's, but in a deep blue hue) and the same shades that Madonna's been wearing lately, in addition to her Prada “Cervo Antic” bag (which is similar to Rough Roses' Kimberly Bag in Brown) and the mega-tall sandals. Ashley was definitely hitting up all of these Los Angeles salons in order to get perfect for her 23rd birthday, which she celebrated in Hawaii with her boyfriend Jared Murillo. It seems that the two haven't been able to get a lot of privacy on the beaches of Hawaii, as paparazzi photos have been popping up online constantly. My question is... these paps that go to Hawaii to photograph these young stars... do they get like an all expense paid trip to Hawaii or what? For a job that definitely has many downfalls, you have to admit that this is definitely a perk!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jun 29 2008 in Beverly Hills, CA. Landing in LA from Salt Lake City the day before, Ashley Tisdale decided she needed some pampering and thus headed to the Neil George Salon in Beverly Hills yesterday, June 29, for some hair-apy. Judging from the picture on the left, where Ash has the typical messy wet bun a la Britney Spears, Mr. George spent the three hours that she was at the salon blowing out and straightening Ms. Tisdale's golden locks. For Ashley's casual-cool summer look, start with a pair of teeny tiny light wash shorts (like Joe's Jeans' Braided 5 Pocket Short in Berkley) and pair with a girly embroidered cami (Yoana Baraschi's Heirloom Mesh Bow Cami in Ivory is a bit dressier, while Johnny Was' Ping Posies Tank in Black is similar to Ashley's, but in black) and big shades (like JeeVice Optics' Red Hot Sunglasses in Black/Smoke). Ashley then slipped into a pair of brown knee-high boots and brought along a matching brown Prada bag (Rough Roses' Kimberly Bag in Brown is similar and undoubtedly a lot less than Ashley's Prada), and finished off her look with a dainty necklace and a bunch of beaded bracelets (I love the unique look of Castaway Jewelry's Grenada Bracelet in Dark Topaz, which is made out of sea glass). While Tisdale is a natural brunette, she says that her blonde locks are much more her. Ash said that blonde hair "suits my personality. I guess I was a brunette with a blonde personality." No arguments here!
Ashley Tisdale seen on May 22 2008 in Los Angeles, CA. Ashley Tisdale showed up to the filming of the finale of "American Idol" in LA on May 22, and I just have to say this, as I know many of you are thinking it- enough is enough already with the hair extensions, Ash! We get it... you want to have long, flowing locks- but this is a little overboard, wouldn't you say? However, I will give Ash props for her casual yet chic outfit, which started with a dainty black camisole (very similar to Gold Hawk's Tribal Eyelet Camisole in Moonless Night) and turquoise necklace (Castaway Jewelry's Mauritius Necklace is an interesting choice, as it is constructed out of African sea glass for an atypical look). Tisdale finished her look with a pair of wide-leg trousers, like Lotta Stensson's Palazzo Pant in White, black peeptoe Loubs and an army green studded Balenciaga bag. I swear this girl and Vanessa Hudgens have the same stylist. Either that or they share a lot of each others' clothes, as the two girls are BFF. While I'm sure you're aware that the filming of High School Musical 3 is underway, I'm not sure if you knew that Ashley required a police escort to the set on the first day of filming. Seriously? Sheesh. An on-set source said, "The police officer only left her side when she was actually involved in shooting a scene. Apparently, during the shoot, Ashley was seen looking unsociable and was reportedly not speaking to other cast members (except Vanessa Hudgens) who was not shooting that day." Okay, I realize that HSM is like this big huge deal, but is a police escort REALLY necessary??
Ashley Tisdale seen on Jan 28 2008 in Los Angeles, CA. Disney queen Ashley Tisdale was spotted at Millenium Dance Studios in Los Angeles with boyfriend Jared Murillo on January 28, 2008. Going for the good old "jeans and tee" look, Ash seemed cheery as she left the studio and gabbed on her cell phone. Wearing skinny black jeans (check out Deener's High Waist Cigarette Jean in Tar) with a long sleeve graphic tee (I'm loving Hank Vintage Threads' noble Midieval Lion Crown Crest Tee), Ashley accessorized with tall leather boots and tons of fun bangles (similar to Accessories & Beyond's Mixed Stones and Gold Metal Leather Bangles). While Ash has caught a lot of negative press for her plastic surgery lately, it's good to hear that some positive press is out there for A.Tis as well! This week's US Weekly features Ashley and BFF Vanessa Hudgens, who speak out about sharing almost everything... except Zac Efron that is! Tisdale says, "I call her my twin sister. She’s always there for me. Some people are really competitive, (but) we’re not. We’re really supportive of each other. You don’t find that a lot in this business." Ain't that the truth!
Ashley Tisdale seen on Dec 27 2007 in Los Angeles, CA. Ashley Tisdale was spotted running errands around Los Angeles on Thursday, December 27, looking rather pleased to see the paparazzi. Ashley began her day after a morning workout with BFF and fellow "High School Musical" star Vanessa Hudgens, followed by a pampering at the nail spa (check out the red tips!). After leaving Oasis Nail Spa and getting a manicure and pedicure, Tisdale tried (tried being the key word) to pull off a stylish look by combining both casual and chic looks. Clearly a fan of Louis Vuitton, Tisdale made sure to sport the signature print on both her scarf and handbag. Ashley then went on to combine more casual pieces with a pair of light colored skinny denim (similar to Hudson Jeans' Stella Skinny Jean in Misty) and a classic v-neck tee in heather gray (look at Laura Dahl's Fievel Tee in Noir). Tisdale completed her look with gold bangles (just like Danielle Stevens Jewelry's Alligator Bangle in Gold) around her wrist and a pair of gold sandals, making sure not to mess up her fresh pedicure. Tisdale has been receiving a lot of press recently regarding her recent highly publicized nose job, about which Tisdale says was strictly to help her breathing due to a deviated septum, but others believe otherwise. After being known for her slightly unflattering nose, Tisdale headed to surgeon of the stars, Dr. Raj Kanodia. Most believe that the nose job was done for aesthetic reasons and to help boost her career. While it's unsure whether or not a medical reason was really to blame, I'm not sure this new nose is an improvement. Thoughts?
