Ashley Tisdale is opening up about High School Musical.
The 39-year-old actress, who played Sharpay Evans in the hit Disney franchise, recently spoke about her iconic role.
“When I played the character of Sharpay — I think it was probably what made her so funny — was that I truly thought [Sharpay] was the popular girl in school. I thought Sharpay was popular, and I played it like she was popular,” she admitted to People.

“And [director] Kenny Ortega enhanced that. He really made me feel like I was popular. But what’s so funny is that she’s not the popular girl. She’s the drama queen. And my husband’s like, ‘That’s what’s so funny about how you played it. You really thought you were popular,’” she went on to explain.
“Sharpay is — I swear she’s mother to everybody — because it’s like she just keeps coming back on these memes and people keep talking and doing the songs,” she went on to reflect.
“And I’m just like, I mean, out of everyone in High School Musical, my character is the most iconic. It’s so cool.”
