Page 4 of 4The piano in the "Fabulous" scene was pink. It was later painted white for "Everyday".
This movie was the first Disney Channel Original Movie to have commercials on ABC. It was also the first made-for-TV movie to have a Hollywood-style premiere event.
Through a Disney Channel online survey fans voted on what they wanted to see in the movie. The answers were:
Corbin's T-shirt read "I majored in vacation."
Troy Bolton is the only character to have a solo. In the first movie, however, Gabriella is the only one.
Unlike the first movie where Troy's singing voice was a composite of Zac Efron and Drew Seeley, Zac does all the vocal intonations for Troy.
Unlike the first movie, Chad and Taylor have singing parts but a song involving just Kelsi Nielsen, Jason Cross, Zeke Taylor, and Martha Cox was cut from the movie.
Zac appears more muscular in HSM2 while he was thinner in HSM1. That was because he gained 15 pounds of muscles in a workout regimen for Hairspray.
Zac Efron commuted from Toronto where he was filming Hairspray to record the soundtrack. That is why his hair seems darker than normal in the promo commercials.
