Austin Butler Explains Why He Called Ex-Girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens a ‘Friend’ in a Rare Comment


Austin Butler is setting the record straight on why he decided to call ex-girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens a ‘friend’ during a 2023 ‘Elvis’ group discussion.

Austin discussed his Elvis role during a 2023 Hollywood Reporter Actors Roundtable conversation and revealed that Vanessa planted the seed in his head to portray the King of rock ‘n’ roll on screen. An Instagram account joked about Austin’s Memphis accent in a caption that read, “He went to the Lady Gaga school of Oscar campaign acting.” The Cali Water founder commented on the post, “Crying.” After keeping their romance out of the spotlight for a few months, Austin and Kaia, 22, went red carpet official at the Met Gala and looked blissfully in young love.
