For that reason, the two actors had a close bond on-screen, shared many scenes, and had to perform multiple songs together. Despite their chemistry when the cameras were rolling, they didn’t initially see eye to eye behind the scenes.

During an episode of “Music Sessions” on Tisdale’s official YouTube channel in 2017, the pair reunited and performed an updated rendition of “What I’ve Been Looking For.” During the Q&A portion, the duo revealed they didn’t develop a friendship with one another when they were first introduced. “We were not close.

It’s been 10 years, so we can talk about it,” Tisdale said with a laugh, adding, “We hated each other. Like, I’m not kidding.” Grabeel insisted they “didn’t get off on the best foot.” On the plus side, Tisdale mentioned she developed a “love” for her co-star after they finished filming the first movie, referring to him now as her “twin brother.”
