Vanessa Hudgens Proud Pinay Loves Filipino Foods

Vanessa Hudgens loves Filipino foods: "I love Filipino food. I
love halo-halo, pancit and adobo. I am such a Filipino—I eat rice every
day."

Vanessa Hudgens' mother is a Filipina, Gina Guangco.

I just found this out in a Filipina blog site. So I posted it here, the thoughts and wishes (i hope) of Vanessa Hudgens.

"Can you share your thoughts about your Filipino heritage?

I am so proud of my heritage. I love being a Filipina. There aren't very
many Filipino girls in the industry. So being able to stand up and be
that girl makes me proud. My mother is so proud. She grew up in Manila.
I don't even think she knows it's doing that well over there. I'd love
to make it over there sometime. Unfortunately, I have not had a chance
to visit.

Do you speak Tagalog?

Oh, not really. My mom tried to teach me when I was younger. I am not
that great at languages. I really want to learn, though.

When do you think you will visit the Philippines?

I think whenever I have a good second to do nothing and just go where I
want. I have been talking about it forever and it never materializes.
Hopefully, soon. I can't wait to see the Philippines.

What did your mom tell you about the Philippines? And in what ways are
you Filipino?

She told me several stories about where she used to live. She has 11
brothers and sisters so she had a big family. I love Filipino food. I
love halo-halo, pancit and adobo. I am such a Filipino—I eat rice every
day (laughter)."

Vanessa Hudgens is a Filipina, and I am proud of Vanessa Hudgens proud Pinay who loves Filipino foods.
