Hudgens' initial remarks were swiftly eviscerated online moments after the video was posted. The actor later suggested that the whole thing was "taken out of context."

Don’t let Vanessa Hudgens getting in on this Disney singalong distract you from the fact that she said she didn’t care if people died of coronavirus

"So yesterday I did an Instagram Live and I realized today that some of my comments are being taken out of context," she said the following day. "It's a crazy time. It's a crazy, crazy time and I am at home and in lockdown and that's what I hope you guys are doing too - in full quarantine and staying safe and sane. I don't take this situation lightly by any means. I am home. So stay inside y'all."

@Disney Why is Vanessa Hudgens participating in the Disney Family Singalong given the awful, insensitive things she said about Coronavirus?
— Jasmine Cruthird (@slicedalmonds) April 16, 2020
Not long after Tisdale's video started making the rounds, Hudgens herself joined in on the fun by editing herself into her co-star's clip.

Despite Hudgens' best efforts to backtrack her comments, the backlash was so severe that comedian Randy Rainbow speculated that she might be the first celebrity to get "quarantine canceled."

Vanessa Hudgens’ PR was like “Disney pls help her”
— Julie (@DailyJulianne) April 17, 2020
This Disney sing along was great until Vanessa Hudgens showed up. Do we not forget the ignorance of her IG a few weeks ago.
Also where is zac effron?
