Probably still not ready to face the imminent public stoning over her nude picture scandal, Vanessa Hudgens has canceled her due appearance on Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Damn, I was really looking forward to seeing her on the show.

Producers confirmed that the High School Musical star, 18, had been booked and that they were rescheduling.

No reason was given for her cancellation, and a rep for the actress did not respond to a request for comment. But her no-show comes after naked pictures of Hudgens hit the Internet last week. She has since apologized to her fans and says she is “embarrassed over this situation.”

This week, Hudgens was given a boost when she received a vote of confidence from the head of a clothing line that uses her as a spokeswoman.

“More power to her,” Marc Ecko, founder and chief creative officer of Marc Ecko Enterprises, tells PEOPLE. “She made a mistake and has apologized for it. I’m just glad no one’s leaked the pictures of me in all of my naked glory.”

They say she’s got a tight schedule. But I think the poor girl has just chickened out. Well, it’s understandable. She certainly needs more time to get prepared for the impending barrage of embarrassing questions.
