Vanessa Hudgens can dance, and now she’ll be telling others if they can too.

Fox just announced that the High School Musical alum has been added as the third judge on the upcoming 14th season of So You Think You Can Dance. The triple threat will join Mary Murphy and co-creator Nigel Lythgoe in critiquing contestants on the hit series.

Vanessa is no stranger to Fox, as she starred in last year’s Grease: Live. Her Rizzo had some serious dance moves, so we’re sure she’s more than qualified for her new gig.

Nigel said in a statement:

“I am so excited for Vanessa to join Mary and me on the judging panel for the 14th season of So You Think You Can Dance. There was instant chemistry in the audition rounds, and I know the SYTYCD fans will love her as much as we do. Vanessa is an accomplished artist and brings her own brand of enthusiasm and energy to our panel.”

Season 14 will feature dancers ages 18 to 30, and the chosen contestants will partner up with returning all-stars.

Catch Vanessa’s debut on the premiere of So You Think You Can Dance on Monday, June 12 on Fox at 8 p.m. ET.
