Headstrong is the debut album by High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale. The album was released on February 6, 2007 via Warner Bros Records, debuting at number five on the U.S. Billboard 200 with about 64,000 copies sold.[1]

On December 22, 2006, Tisdale debuted her next single, "Be Good to Me" on AOL Music: First Listen. On December 25, 2006, it debuted on Radio Disney. The track was supposed to be released with "He Said, She Said" on iTunes (on December 26, 2006). However, due to the recent release of the "preview" EP, Warner Bros. Records released "He Said, She Said" as a single on February 5th.

"He Said, She Said" video was set to premiere sometime in February. Warner Bros. Records immediately pulled the first official single "He Said, She Said" and switched it to "Be Good To Me." A new music video will be shot for "Be Good To Me" and "He Said, She Said" will be pushed back as the second official single off of "Headstrong".

As of March 27, "Be Good To Be" has been added to (New York's #1 hit music station) Z100's playlist at # 30. The song has also been picked up by several other pop music stations this week. [2]
