Discography:

 * Headstrong (2007)
 * Guilty Pleasure (2009)

Ashley Tisdale exhibits these tropes:

 * All Girls Want Bad Boys: "Hot Mess"
 * Break Up Song: "Over It", "Delete You", "Overrated", "It's Alright, It's Okay"
 * Cut Song: The "Guilty Pleasure" song, which was recorded for the Guilty Pleasure album.
 * Dye Hard / Dyeing for Your Art
 * Hair of Gold: As Maddie Fitzpatrick and Sharpay Evans.
 * Although it may have changed when she reverted to brunette and back again.
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With HSM co-star Vanessa Hudgens.
 * I Am Not Spock: She is still mainly associated with her role as Sharpay.
 * Intercourse With You: "He Said She Said", "Headstrong", "Don't Touch"
 * Large Ham: She was the local Ham in HSM and is Candace Flynn. One wonders how she holds up her voice from the constant screaming.
 * Averted as Savannah in Hellcats, where she managed to be a lot more restrained.
 * Ms. Fanservice: In most of her music videos, and as Bethany in Aliens in The Attic.
 * Not to mention playing a freaking cheerleader.
 * And posing nude for a national magazine.
 * New Sound Album: Guilty Pleasure was a pop rock record.
 * Older Than They Look: She's in her mid-twenties and yet in every role she's played, she's in high school or college.
 * Platonic Life Partners: With HSM co-star Zac Efron.
 * Romantic Two-Girl Friendship: Most prominently with Vanessa Hudgens. They even have their own Portmanteau Couple Name, "Ashnessa".
 * She Is All Grown Up: Why she took part in Allure's annual nude celeb photo shoot ("I want people to notice I'm a grown woman"; she is 26). Although the fact she had her own offshoot Disney Channel movie reprising her High School Musical role just a few months later doesn't exactly help her cause.
 * She's Got Legs
 * Silly Love Songs: "We'll Be Together", "Me Without You"
 * Spiritual Successor: To Britney Spears, music-wise. on her first album.
