Vanessa Hudgens divides fans with unrecognisable look: 'I'm in shock'

Vanessa Hudgens has divided fans after appearing completely unrecognisable in her latest Instagram snap.

The High School Musical star swapped her trademark dark locks for a bleached blonde wig that framed her face in waves. She also jumped on the bleached eyebrow trend but kept her makeup classy with black winged eyeliner and a classic red lip.

The star also wore a chunky gold choker that covered the length of her neck and appeared to be standing outside a suburban house.

Vanessa finished her bold look off with a black, patent jacket. In the caption, she wrote: “Who even is she”.

It’s unclear what event the Spring Breakers star was attending, but her post did coincide with her 34th birthday.

Many fans also compared the starlet to Lady Gaga, who has been proudly displaying bleached brows for years.

“She’s giving Lady Gaga for sure!” one fan claimed.

“When your obsession as a teen was Vanessa Hudgens and Lady Gaga, and now Vanessa decided to dress up as Lady Gaga,” another gushed.

“The old Vanessa can’t come to the phone right now,” quipped a third.

“I’m in shock is this real? I love it. I love you my queen,” commented another.

“It’s a no on that hair. Is that a wig? Lol,” another commented.

“Honestly this look is very, very ugly. Hate it but somehow…somehow…you’re so pretty, you still look good. And I kinda like it at the same time. Damn,” a fan remarked.
