Vanessa Hudgens hosts charity run

Actress Vanessa Hudgens donned a bright pink wig and an outlandish outfit to host and take part in a charity run in California on Friday (24May13).

The High School Musical star served as host for the inaugural Electric Run, a 3.1 mile (five kilometre) challenge to raise funds for the Smile Train children's charity.

Hudgens turned heads by arriving at the event in Carson, California wearing a bright pink wig with matching leggings, as well as a polar-bear style hat and furry boots.

After the race, Hudgens posted a picture of herself on Twitter.com with the caption, "Yea (sic). That was fun. Electric Run."
