Ashley Tisdale has been really busy lately with all kinds of different projects! Most recently her second album released on Tuesday (July 28) to great reviews.

Her movie “Aliens in the Attic” hits theaters this weekend and is expected to fair well at the box office.

At 24-years-old it is expected that Ashley will branch away from her Disney roots, but according to Ashley herself she is in no rush to do so. In a recent interview she said, “I’m easing into it. If you go too far, that can kind of hurt you. So I just take baby steps. Once you’re playing the older roles, you’re there forever after that. You can never go backward. So I’m taking my time getting there.”

Her first baby step was her album “Guilty Pleasure” in which the music is a bit more mature than we’re used to hearing from her. She says, “The subjects (of the songs) are a little bit more mature. There’s a lot of breakup songs, and then there are songs that are role-playing in a relationship, and innuendos like ‘I like what you do to my hair,’ so I think you know where that is going. As a young kid, you don’t listen to what they’re saying or what they’re singing about. You like the beat. You like the music.”
