- As Portrayed by ASHLEY TISDALE
Ashley Tisdale is a recognised face on Disney Channel, but the character of Sharpay gave her whole new persona, and fantastic career opportunity.
Following from HSM, Ashley's debut album "Headstrong" (which is absolutely fantastic) sold 70,000 copies in the first week.
Born: 2nd July 1985, in West Deal, New Jersey
Favourite Clothes: Diesel, Bebe, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21

Favourite Movies: Just Married, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Did You Know: Ashley Tisdale sang at the White House at the age of 12?
Before we met Ashley as sharp-tongued Sharpay in High School Musical, most Disney Channel fans will have known her as Maddie Fitzpatrick, the loveable Candy Counter girl from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
Ashley had waist-length curly brown hair, which she dyed blonde for the part of Maddie.
