Vanessa Hudgens gets rave Twitter reviews from stars
Anna Kendrick, Demi Lovato and High School Musical cast members sent compliments her way
When actress Vanessa Hudgens performed in Fox's TV musical Grease: Live Sunday night, it had been just a day since her father died of cancer.
I am so sad to say that last night my daddy, Greg passed away from stage 4 cancer. Thank you to everyone who kept him in your prayers.
—@VanessaHudgensIt would be understandable if she had given a distracted, lackluster performance while dealing with the intense emotions that come with losing a parent.
However, her take on Grease's Rizzo garnered rave reviews.
