Biography |
It’s hardly surprising that Ashley Tisdale loves to shop.
After all, the West Deal, New Jersey native was first
discovered in a mall when she was only three years old. “I
was [there] with my mom” she recalls, “and this manager came
up to us and asked if I wanted to be in commercials.” The
answer, of course, was an emphatic "yes," and Ashley was
soon appearing in spots for big-name brands like J.C. Penney
and T-Mobile. By the time she was 12, “Blondie” -- as she’s
affectionately known -- had already toured the world as a
leading cast member of Les Miserables and Annie.
Ashley’s stellar stage work paved the way for a plethora of
film and television projects, and she got the ball rolling
in 1997 with a guest-starring role in the Omar Gooding
series, Smart Guy. Additional parts followed in top-rated TV
shows like 7th Heaven, Beverly Hills 90210, Boston Public,
Charmed starring Alyssa Milano, and The Hughleys. She also
received parts in films, such as A Bug’s Life (1998) and
Donnie Darko (2001).
Ashley finally had a chance to combine her singing and
acting talents again in 2006, in the Disney made-for-TV
movie, High School Musical. The glitzy production about two
teens who are worlds apart proved to be a smash hit, and the
film’s soundtrack went platinum just seven weeks after its
release. Also in 2006, Ashley played Maddie Fitzpatrick on
another Disney production, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. |
