High School Musical/Trivia


 * Fake American: Oleysa Rulin (Kelsi) is originally from Russia.
 * Though she was raised in Texas and Utah and does not have to fake an accent so this trope is debatable.
 * Incestuous Casting: One character remarks that if Sharpay could find a way to play both Romeo and Juliet, Ryan would be out of a job, suggesting that the two have played romantic partners in the past.
 * Romance on the Set: Between Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, who were together for over five years. They confessed to liking each other during the first film and got together during the second (although they hid it for as long as they could to avoid media attention). Kenny Ortega admitted that he'd noticed their chemistry since the beginning, and deliberately paired them during auditions.
 * Star-Making Role: For Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens.
