Vanessa Hudgens caused a record number of cases of carpel tunnel syndrome today when photos (once again) surfaced of the “High School Musical” star topless.

There has been speculation as to whether they are actually Hudgens or if they’ve been photo shopped. And, if they are real, are the sexy snaps new or not?

Gossip Cop confirmed with a source close to Hudgens that the photos are indeed real — but not new. “They are old photos from years ago,” said the source.
