“Just Secured Herself a Contract Extension”: Vanessa Hudgens’ Angel Stadium Appearance Sparks Fan Delight

Vanessa Hudgens, the multi-faceted actress and better half of Los Angeles Angels shortstop Cole Tucker, recently made waves at Angel Stadium. Her radiant motherly look, complete with a noticeable baby bump, has sent the internet into overdrive, with both baseball and Hollywood followers buzzing with anticipation.

Wearing an elegant white gown that accentuates the bump, the star of High School Musical posed with Tucker on the field after a game. She shared a picture of this moment on Instagram along with a witty caption quoting “Angels in the Outfield,” which came out in 1994. Soon enough, it went viral across various social media platforms, bringing attention not only to their pending parenthood but also to Tucker’s improved performance on the field.

Cole Tucker signed with the Halos minor league contract this spring after struggling through camp with Seattle, and has been steadily climbing up since then. His .267 average and .776 OPS in the majors have not failed to catch the spectators’ eyes.

But fans are excited about more than just Vanessa Hudgens’ relationship with Tucker; they’re also anxious for her return as a weapons expert named Kelly, who teams up with Will Smith’s character Mike Lowrey once again for “Bad Boys: Ride or Die,” which hits theaters June 7th and is expected to be another box office tour de force that further cements her status as one of Hollywood’s reigning icons.

What was being seen as an appreciative act of support from Tucker’s prideful wife has now garnered wide-spread approval following this recent game; people love seeing these two together. They can’t get enough of them showing affection publicly like this so early into their relationship either—talk about adorable! Many fans have even said things such as “Vanessa Hudgens just secured herself a contract extension” when talking about how much they seem to genuinely care for each other.

It is not just one picture that has people talking about Hudgens and Tucker. Social media is buzzing with fans’ comments of envy, admiration, and fun teasing. One fan even said, “I have a heart, ya know?” While another wrote, “I’m so jealous.” Love can sometimes be blinding, but it seems as though many wish they could find the same kind of love that Hudgens and Tucker share.

Their appearance at the game also sparked some humorous speculation for the future. “From where I’m sittin’? 🚬 🤏 I’d say when the Angels win the pennant”, one person commented, hinting that it might have something to do with this year’s team success. A second user joked, “They will have to explain the MLB uniform debacle of 2024 to their child one day when they show this pic” (The league is currently changing uniforms for all teams next season, in a team-up with Nike.)

But underneath all the funny words, you can feel hopefulness too. People understand how much celebrities can impact things and think maybe Vanessa Hudgens being around could help bring some good luck charms for the Angels’. Some fans expressed this sentiment with comments like “Only in LA LA land. #NeedToWin” or “Angles in the Outfield Quote that’s smooth💯”. Another person seemed excited about what it could mean for their favorite baseball team’s chances this year, saying, “finally mlb gets it’s swift and kelce relationship 😅”. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are known sports lovers whose show of support needs no different introduction—so why not Hudgens and Tucker too?
