Vanessa Hudgens On The Cover of Seventeen

In the latest issue of Seventeen magazine, Hudgens said she's not sorry for taking the risqué picture, which she repeatedly called "private," but sorry instead for getting caught.It's very unfortunate, because with the Internet these days, you don't have a personal life," she told the magazine for its February cover story. "Nothing is private: Everyone knows everything, and they can find out everything about you. You're not as safe as you think you are, and you have to be aware of the people you're around. It was something that was meant to be private, and even though it isn't anymore, I'd still like to keep it as private as I can."

Hudgens' remarks to the magazine somewhat contradict an earlier statement issued days after the leak by her management, in which she apologized to her fans and said she felt embarrassment and "regret about her nude photos." Although she recently admitted to Seventeen that the incident was "traumatic" and made her "extremely upset," she said she's "much better now" thanks in large part to her "family, friends, and fans, who supported me all along the way." Specifically, she singled out her mother to the magazine as particularly supportive.
