Anyway, the teen star performed a song alongside American Idol alumni Katharine McPhee and R&B singer Ne-Yo during the filming of TNT's Christmas in Washington 2007 at The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. last Sunday. Vanessa Hudgens joined the ranks of other famous singers like Andrea Bocelli. Alan Jackson, Colbie Caillat and Heather Headley also performed. The said special will be hosted by Dr. Phil and his wife Robin McGraw and will benefit the Children's National Medical Center. It will air on Wednesday, Dec. 12 @ 10PM ET/PT on TNT. Watch out for it! Vanessa Anne Hudgens will shine as usual!
