The amazing KayCee Stroh plans to walk down the aisle in Utah in January, and the High School Musical star shared her engagement photo with People magazine!

Stroh, who plays Martha Cox in the series of movie-musicals, got engaged to her fiancé Ben Higginson in May when filming High School Musical 3: Senior Year.

"We shot from 6 p.m. until 6 a.m., and Ben was waiting for me in my trailer," Stroh said. "He was waiting for me with a single red rose. Then he took me up to H Rock, a place at the top of a little mountain that overlooks Salt Lake City, and we watched the sunrise. Then he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him."

*Sniff!* ... Here's the engagement photo of the lovebirds:

This Friday, folks.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year opens in theaters this Friday.

While we assume most fans have taken the week off to line up for tickets, we hope a few out there are still privy to an Internet connection.

If so, they can watch the video below. It's an edition of Moviefone's "Unscripted" that showcases Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Corbin Bleu and Ashley Tisdale sitting around and asking one another questions about the movie. Yes, it's as cool as it sounds...

Darn the French.

High School Musical fans in Paris not only got to meet and greet the members of this franchise's cast earlier in the week, but High School Musical 3: Senior Year will premiere two days earlier in Europe than in the United States.

Life isn't fair sometimes, but at least we can still enjoy images of Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale overseas:

Report: Zac Efron Open to High School Musical 4

matt@iscribelimited.com (Hilton Hater) — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 07:44:26 EST

We know, we know. High School Musical 3 doesn't come out for another two months.

Still, the following rumor about High School Musical 4 is too exciting not to pass along:

According to Life and Style Weekly, Zac Efron might actually reprise his role as Troy Bolton in a fourth installment of the franchise that made him famous. The great-haired actor had originally said this fall's big screen version of the film would be his last, but that celebrity gossip magazine reports that it might come down to salary.

"Zac is thinking in the $8 million to $10 million range, but it depends on how the movie opens and how desperately they want him back,” a source told the publication.

Stop staring at a shirtless, wet Zac Efron and focus on the fact that he might return for High School Musical 4.

High School Musical 3 may be focused on the group's graduation, but Disney is still optimistic it can get recruit a few major cast members to return. Money does talk, after all.

"Are we going to have all the cast back? Probably not," Disney Channel Worldwide president Rich Ross said in April when the third movie was first announced. "Will we have some of them? I hope so.

Earlier today, we posited that Matt Prokop would become the next big High School Musical star.

And he very well might.

Before we speculate about High School Musical 4, however, let's not forget that the third installment comes out on October 24. Want a special look at Vanessa Hudgens and company?

Here's a cool scrapbook video of the filming of the movie:

Warning: the following pictures reveal a couple High School Musical 3 spoilers.

Specifically, a few make the outcome of the Wildcats' championship basketball game rather obvious.

Enlarge them at your own risk, but also keep in mind that they all feature Zac Efron in the role of Troy Bolton. In other words: they may spoil a story line, but they're freakin' gorgeous! For example:

Zac Efron: The ultmate (cute!!!!) close-up.

We'll give you a few minutes to stare at the photo above and then get your heart rate back to normal...

Once you've recovered from the image of Efron sweaty and intense, check out the following High School Muscial 3 pics. They feature Efron and real-life girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens in the roles that made them famous:

KayCee Stroh and Ben Highinson Plan Dream Wedding

matt@iscribelimited.com (Hilton Hater) — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 14:02:14 EST

KayCee Stroh can't wait to marry Ben Highinson. But that doesn't mean she's acting too insane about the impending nuptials.

"I have an absolutely wonderful wedding planner who's [stopping] me from being a Bridezilla," the High School Musical Star told People. "I'm so excited. It's great. It's going to be a January wedding. A lot of red, white and silver – and cranberries."

Higginson proposed to Stroh in May. Since then, he's actually been a significant help to his soon-to-be bride.

"He helped me pick the flowers – most guys don't do that," said Stroh, who wrapped High School Musical 3: Senior Year earlier this summer. "He's great. Surprisingly, he's been there every step of the way when I've needed him ... He is perfect!"

Stroh also made it clear that Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens and the entire gang would be invited to the event

"Of course!" she said. "Everyone is invited. It's going to be a big wedding."
