Anneliese van der Pol, Ashley Tisdale Getty Images(2) UPDATE: 1/7/26 at 11:50 a.m. ET - Anneliese van der Pol's comments about serving as Ashley Tisdale's waitress have resurfaced online two years later. While Tisdale never addressed Van der Pol's remarks, the High School Musical star went viral in January 2026 for detailing her reasons for leaving a "toxic" mom friend group. "I was starting to feel frozen out of the group, noticing every way that they seemed to exclude me," Tisdale, who shares two daughters with husband Christopher French, wrote in her article.
