Way to go Zac, congratulations!

Thanks for the thread JJ!

Have to say though, our couple looked sooo cute together. :)

Megan fox rocks @ 06/01/2008 at 11:43 pm

he’s so gorgeous and cute , love him

Congratulations Zac

He looks gorgeous and his interaction with Vanessa was so cute.

Nikki was quite disrespectful imo, considering his girlfriend was with him. She could have just smiled or mouthed thank-you instead of waving her arms around everywjere shouting “I LOVE YOU ZACCYYY” :|

I get your point LM, but she was just showing her love for zac, and appreciates him thanking her, she was just happy for him, that all.

congrats zac, you are the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! looking good!

Congratualations Zac!! It couldn’t happen to a more deserving and nicer guy!

looooooooooooooooooooooooove him!
yay!!
zac rulez u.u!

Yay for Zachary!!! Even if he was my second choice to win the award I am still happy for him because he did deserve it! His speech was adorable and very humble, just like the Zac I fell in love with when I saw him in interviews for Hairspray that I was almost scared had dissapeared as of late. Thankfully he restored my totall and complete faith in him.

And yes I am a huge Nikki fan so this could be biased but I have to say I loved his ”thank you” to her and her little shout out to him. It was a cute little moment they got to share, and you could just tell how much they still care for each other. Happy to see that their friendship and connection goes beyond the set and promotion!

and JJ would it be too much to ask for a post on Nikki? I realize you might not have pictures yet but I would (and so would many) great apperciate a post on her since she was nominated also and attended looking gorgeous! Thank you in advance!

haha congrats zac

dylan

so f’n hot.
god id do him
right here
right now.

he gets hotter
&& hotter as
he gets older.

hes unbelievably
gorgeous <3333

Lindsay and zac must make a movie together, they look cute together xD..that would be nice…

There’s a new post after this with better pictures.

i prefer u with lindsay or ashley,, or anyone else except vanessa.
close with nessa will make the really bad effect for u zac..
trust me….
thanks jared for a chance to add my comments…
thats make my emotions better…

Nikki was in the movie that he won for and also nominated for it alongside him. It would make sense for him to mention her by name, just like he was being respectful by mentioning that all the other nominees were great at the start of his speech. Nikki’s shouting was her just being her normal obnoxious self. A serious lol at the “fans” who think the zac from his dissapeared just beacuse as of late he compliments and is actually with his girlfriend. It’s amazing how much say people think they can have in others lives. He is happy, let him be.

Also would add that I prefer the zac, that was just shown now, rather than the one who would gladly do a pathetic promotional stunt on tv just like all other stars or be so consumed with publicity and promotion.

Adorable ZANESSA !!!!! LOVE them sooooooo much!!!

aw i loved how vanessssa kissed him on the cheek when he won! so adorable!

PINKaNGEL @ 06/02/2008 at 2:27 am

Well done Zac!!!!

Pinkangel @ 06/02/2008 at 2:30 am

and you are looking beautiful tonight…..

Congratulations Zac! He really deserved it, and I look forward to
his future projects, and I’m glad I voted it made me feel I had a tiny
part.

eww, wtf? why is he posing w/ lindsay lohan, a scary goth type lady in a black dress, ewww. he should have just brought vanessa onstage w/ him.:[

midnightwonder @ 06/02/2008 at 6:00 am

Congrats to Zac! He really deserved this award!

Looking handsome as always, acknowledging his co-workers, making a very humble and sweet speech, thanking his fans as well, bringing his brother to the show, having his supportive GF by his side - what more can I say? It was a very good night and I’m happy for him.

Congratulations to Zac for winning the award! He handled it professionally as usual. Great to see his hardwork being recognised.

he’s gorgeous and hot but did not deserve the award. He only won because he’s so popular with the tweens who voted a million times.

congratulations to zac for once again winning an award based on popularity and cuteness alone. he was gracious and gorgeous as usual but really his co-star in HS was the real talent.

OMG, he looks like http://www.fotolog.com/samtt
I love them

Zac looked very tired . He did manage to give a very humble acceptance speech and thanked Nikki blonsky ( she really should have won this hands down but let’s not forget this is Hollywood and popularity trumps talent) which was gracious of him. Congratulations Zac.

Good to see Zac again. Congratulations to him. Great to see him standing alongside of other females. I know the little troll of a girlfriend was there but at least we get some shots of him without her. Can you all tell I am not a fan of Vanessa….you know the fake one.

So glad Zac won the award. He really deserved it. Nice to see Vanessa was given time off to support him. THey really look great in these pics. Surprised to see Dylan there but glad he was able to support his bro. too. Maybe school is out for him already and he will spend a little time with Zac if Zac gets a day or two off. I have a feeling Zac and Vanessa may have driven to the awards but who knows?

YAYAYYYAAAYYAYYYAYYYAYYYAYY!!!

Love you Zac!

Miss you!

congrats zac and i love zanessa

la lohan looks smitten with zac…

He’s really handsome!

Congrats ZAc!!!!

love to see them together

rosielee9 @ 06/02/2008 at 9:52 am

Zac has always said he is very comfortable around women and it shows in a good way, but his main lady is not a troll but a very beautiful young lady who he has chosen to have in his life and seems very happy with.

Have to agree about Dylan it was nice to see that he still makes time to hang out with his brother as I can’t imagine that they get to do it very often except for maybe family things and seing how close Zac is to his family and how much they mean to him I bet he and Dylan had a great time.

Wonder if Zac and Vanessa will be going to theLaker’s game this weekend that would be a nice couple of days off for them just relaxing and having some fun before heading back to Utah and filming, although by all the interviews that have been coming out sounds like they are having fun while working hard.

lovethekid @ 06/02/2008 at 10:12 am

<3 zac definitely deserved it. all the other nominees haven’t really exploded in the movie scene since their movie debut. but i wouldn’t know since i’m not checking out their fan sites i don’t know what their working on. although nikki blonski did a great job in the movie, she did not do tracy turnblad justice. i don’t like vanessa…i don’t hate her but i don’t like her…but she did look good, her hair and make up don’t change.

Congratulations Zac!

why did nikki not do justice to tracy? she was amazing in all aspects and if you don’t like her at least be fair…who would have done tracy justice….even zac was raving about nikki and what a great talent she is…

zac won this award due to his popularity and come to think of it his role in hairspray required very minimal acting as compared to what the other nominees did…but i’m a fan of zac but i am just being fair…seth rogen was great and so were the others but we know that zac may have had the most number of fans…

even zac himself was surprised that he won but he was very humble about it…he knew others deserved it more than him…

Congratulations Zac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zac was nominated cause his good job, not only for this popularity. If he wouldnt won, he always aprecciated the nomination. But he won, cause his role in the movie and his actitude like a growing actor. Congra to Zac.

lohan looks like she was thinking it would be awesome to taste some of that meat…zac is beautiful so who can blame her…she knows a stud when she sees one…

[~I n F a m o u s~] @ 06/02/2008 at 12:38 pm

’she’ got on stage and looked like a complete tool. lmaoo someone people just cant be cool, its not in them.

[~I n F a m o u s~] @ 06/02/2008 at 12:40 pm

oh, and why did whorenessa cheer more for johnny depp than she did girlfriend right here? lmfbaooooo

lmfbaooooooo

lmfbaoooooooooo

still lmfbao

i love you zac your so hott good job on winning you rock

i love you zac your so hott good job on winning you rock

Congratulations, Zac! You DID deserve the award. He was nominated just the same as everyone else. He did his job the best he could like everyone else. IF he has more fans and they are more enthusiastic than the other nominees, then is that Zac’s fault? This award was for “break-out” star and he has proven he WAS just that. Due to the number of fans and their enthusiasm tells the tale. To “break out” and get the attention means you have to have more than just talent. He has talent, charisma, humility, likabilty, and people want to SEE him. What else should a “break out” award winner possess? Apparently none of the other nominees have all those things—and that’s not taking away from their talent—it’s just that Zac does have it all—-and he shouldn’t be blamed for it. Just because some of you wanted someone else to get it, don’t show what sore losers you are.

Thank you Karen, I couldn’t have said it better.
The people who movies are made for and whose money make movies successful have voted. The winners have rightly taken their awards. End of old story. We’ve moved on to the next movie season and those breaking out with new movies, if any.

i loveee u zac, with all my heart
without you, i’ll die

Zac deserved this more than Nikki IMO.

Just becuase Nikki had a bigger role, doesn’t mean she did a better job. She made the character unlikeable and annoying for me and her facial expressions were ridiculously over-acted.

I think there were other people nominated in the category who deserved it more than Zac though.

Carolina:-) @ 06/02/2008 at 2:49 pm

Zaaaaaac Yeah I loveeee you

Congratulations, Zac!!! Loved his humble reaction and speech. And those two…just radiant…

And, Zac does deserve the award. I agree there was a lot of talent he was up against and I enjoyed their roles too. I think of the breakthrough award though as not necessarily an award for the newest talent…so, not to Nikki because it was her first role and she did do well in it…no dispute there…but as really breaking through by definition…through a barrier (kid fans to adult fans, for instance)…honestly, this was a big role for Zac. How many more adult fans did he gain from playing Link? What were his prospects before that role and after? And, I’m not being insulting…it’s not that he didn’t have any…it’s just that they really increased after Hairspray and then the success of HSM2 that followed. Now, in the last 5 mths alone, he has worked on filming three movies for the big screen. He’d been working in the business for several years and this really was his breakthrough performance. And, to me, he kind of stole the show…I had no idea who he was when I walked into the theater to see Hairspray that day and when I left, I wanted to know more about who he was.

Way to go, Zac!

Congrats at winning the award Zac!!!! :D
can’t wait for HSM3, Me and Orson Welles and Seventeen Again!! =]]
lovee zanessa!! <3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

midnightwonder @ 06/02/2008 at 3:54 pm

Zac was nominated because of his talents and not because he has many fans. MTV can control the nominations but not the actual voting. ALL actors and actresses had EQUAL chance but voters seemed to like Zac more. It was Zac who won and not the others. He deserved this award because he IS talented and got this award because he has a huge fanbasis. And I don’t understand what’s wrong with that. Every performer has fans and supporters. So if you are not satisfied with the result then I suggest you that you should encourage your star’s fans more.

But do you really think that people would like him only because he has a pretty face and/or a cute girlfriend? No! Do you think directors would give him roles just because he has become famous? No! Do you think directors would actually write a script just for him if he wasn’t talented? Hell no! So let’s face it: this guy is only 20 and a half years old and I bet we will hear a lot about his work and success. So you’d better start to accept this fact. End of story.

Congratulations to Zac!! He made us fans proud; he looked great, and gave a wonderful speech. Very humble and appreciative!

And I totally agree with Zac Fan. If you really define what a “breakthrough” role is, this WAS it for Zac; it brought him out of HSM, and into mainstream movies. Other movies have followed, and I’m sure many more will be ahead for this great ,young, hard-working actor with a great attitude and work ethic! Hairspray jump-started him and gave him exposure. I do think he truly deserved it. I know lots of people loved “Superbad” and the guys in that, but honestly, they seemed like they were just being themselves. Linc Larkin was a 60’s role, and I thought harder to play.

So, congrats to Zac!!

Just Interested @ 06/02/2008 at 4:07 pm

Congratulations Zac - your hard work is paying off and you are being recognised for it. Well done. Shame Nikki could not share the award with you!

Aaaaaaw!
Loo amoooo !

aaaaaah i love him
he’s a cutie

congrats zac ! i <3 you

we all know zac only won because he have a lot of fans that voted in him. I wanted Cera to win.

i dont think zac should’ve won

I Love You Zac Efron !!!!!!!!!!!!

i liked the boys from superbad better

CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!

Hm… you need more comments, so I’ll just…

bump this little thread up to…

::pushing a little more::

…almost there

102. Whew, much better.

::wipes my hands::

Have a great day everyone!

You are so right, sara. Zac does deserve a whole lot more attention here.

Well, you know what. Neither teens nor tweenies nominated Zac for this award. Someone on the MTV nominating committee felt he deserved to be nominated.

And what a lot of people don’t realize is that a lot of us older fans had a BIG hand in Zac winning this award. Probably a lot more than the teenie boppers did.

People can moan and complain all they want. He won. And his fans voted for him. Doesn’t matter how young or old they are.

Yeah, Karen, he does!!! Besides congratulations, didn’t you all think he looked great too? I loved that suit, without the tie look. Very cool, very sophisticated for his age. Only one thing, his eyes looked WAY TOO BLUE!!!! LOL

christine x3 @ 06/02/2008 at 9:47 pm

what a hottie :]

Jennifer W @ 06/02/2008 at 10:31 pm

zac is so hot as always and congrats zac you so deserved it and im so excited to be seeing 17 again here very soon.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT KIND OF SUIT HE IS WEARING?????

V-loyalist @ 06/03/2008 at 12:52 am

Congratulations Zac! I am proud that i voted for you because i know you deserved it!

Job well done! I keep wishing that more great things will come your way, just keep your feet on the ground and believed what you can offer, we always here to support you.

omg..zac efron won..lol..that’s funny..

OK, all you moaners and groaners who want to say all kinds of bad things abou t Zac winning—how would ANYONE win if they didn’t get votes? Do you know how stupid you sound when you say he only won because all his fans voted for him? Of course that’s how he won! That’s how EVERY winner won in their catagory. And in Zac’s catagory he happened to get the MOST VOTES—meaning more VOTERS wanted him to get it rather than the other people in that catagory. SO, get over it. People are so resentful. He was humble and surprised he won. He did nothing wrong to anyone, not did he do anything that should make anyone angry. Some of you may have wished someone else would have gotten it but just because they didn’t doesn’t give anyone the right to say insulting things about him because he did win.

rosielee9 @ 06/03/2008 at 5:00 am

Hi Karen hope your well.

Totally agree Zac just like the other’s that were nominated had done his job and deserved to be in it as much as the other’s and that’s how it has always gone vote’s decide who get’s the award, all these people who say other’s deserved it more is wrong and I wonder just how many of these people even bothred to vote for other people, I’m guessing not many this is just another excuse for them to have a go at Zac, I’d love to see them do 3 movies back to back like Zac has, he’s putting in the work so why should’nt he be rrewarded for it. I don’t agree with some saying that it’s a pity he did’nt share the award with Nikki why should he she was also nominated and obvioulsy did’nt get enough vote’s whereas he did so why should he share it with anyone.

90#

Hi

My daughter said the same as you,HSM for one was’nt a big theatre release in the begining but that’s was got put in the spotlight but HS was his first big theatre release that was not connected to HSM so in that sense HS is his breakthrough from being a teen idol to a more adult role, like the MAOW and 17 Again there more for a adult audience but Zac’s true fans will still go and see them, I know my daughter and I are and of course HSM3.

midnightwonder @ 06/03/2008 at 6:19 am

go sox:

I agree. And his eyes were way too blue! I love his suit: basically, I love when he wears blue and I think I was a bit bored of his black outfits lately. And the lack of a tie made him look more bohemian and cool.

By the way, it seems that the “shiny” suits are reserved for MTV appearances. Have a look at his grey suit from last year (06/03/2007):
http://www.zefron.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=261&pos=134

I love these shiny suits because they seem to match his bright personality. (And his eyes and face glow during these events, especially when there is a certain someone by his side who is really proud of him…)

i believe he said he buys all his suits from the salvation army in downtown los angeles…he has a social conscience so i beleive him…

His suit is Moschino, definetly not salvation army! (although nothings wrong with that!) The girls on zaangels had this up yesterday:

http://zaangels.com/2008/06/02/mtv-movie-awards-style-file/

Go Sox - ROFL! Yes, those eyes…too blue…hurts my own eyes just looking at them. LOL!

midnightwonder - I totally thought about the shiny suit thing too! :lol: But, Zac has that quality that some people just really do…he wears his clothes well. :-D

Thanks to Karen and everyone else who pointed out the ridiculousness of lamenting that he just got more fan votes…and for also pointing out that fans didn’t initially nominate him for the award. But, you know what…that’s just a sour grapes thing to say…here’s the thing…if Zac has gained this huge worldwide fanbase and if said fanbase got him this win, well, that’s still a Yay, Zac! He has to be pretty darn awesome to have so many fans…and before anyone goes there, yes, he’s gorgeous, but many are…there’s something more there…his talent, his charisma…my mother does not want to jump his bones, but she enjoys his movies…my husband certainly doesn’t and he clearly admits the guy’s talented and appreciates how down to earth he seems. The five-year olds certainly don’t have the hots for him, so it’s an all around appeal. Can fans of all ages, from all different backgrounds, from all over the globe, who have never met really all be wrong? He has clear talent and charisma and a bright future, which is why we can all see it. Kudos, Zac! Am so looking forward to seeing where your career leads in the years to come!

So with you, Zac Fan! I mean for people like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise to be around so long they had to have many things going for them like looks, talent, charisma, likability, etc. THAT’s how actors get to be “stand outs” after they became “break outs”. Nobody really talked about Brad’s acting talents when he first was seen on the primetime soap Dallas but he quickly made his mark. Just because Zac is attractive doesn’t mean he doesn’t have talent or other things that will make him a big star throughout the years. I just hope he keeps the same level head he possesses now.

mindy:

Zac has said he has gone and bought jeans and tees at places like that before but he has never said e bought his suits there.

ZacFan and midnightwonder, :o) I may be old, but I am DEFINITELY not blind. I’m glad someone else appreciates the “finer things” about Zac!!

I also think it’s sour grapes on the part of people who are whining about Zac getting too many votes!! Wasn’t that the whole purpose of an online ballot…voting??? That is such a laughable complaint!!

Well said, btw, Karen and Zac Fan up above….

Yes, go sox, I did notice how good Zac looked. That handsome face, those gorgeous eyes, and that fine build he has. I thought he looked so fit as he walked up on that stage. He was so perfect. You could tell how unbelievable it all was for him. I loved his thank you to the fans who he added “…without you I couldn’t break out of anything.” So cute and appropriate for that speech at that time.

Hi everyone, I am soooo proud of Zac. He really is a classy guy!

Hi Narf, Go Sox, Karen (my fellow angels) and all supporters of the
breakthrough performer of the year, none other than Mr. Zachary David Alexander Efron. Wow, he certainly lit up the TV screen and totally rocked the blue suit. I don’t think he could look much better, but it certainly didn’t hurt to have his favorite accessory on his arm, Miss Vanessa Hudgens. Gotta love this couple! Congrats Zac!!!

well.. yeah zac efrOn wiin..¡ he is the best

Thanks, go sox! We’re not blind, but he can be blinding…LOL!

Karen - exactly…I’ve replayed that whole walk onto stage and speech *ahem* a few times. ;-)

narf - yes he is!!!

kgg - indeed…best accessory of all though is the love they carry with them everywhere they go. :-)

Zac Fan:

I can’t stop looking at the video where it shows in in the audience when his name is announced and the look in his eyes is priceless. Truthfully he looks like he went into shock. At first he barely responds when Vanessa puts her arms around him and gives him the kiss on the cheek. It’s like a movie moment but this is really happening and he isn’t faking it because his eyes are telling it all. Plus, if you click on picture #4 and enlarge it, that look is still there in his eyes as Lindsey hands him the award. I laugh everytime I watch the video or see that picture but at the same time my heart goes out to him because he was sooo caught off guard and unprepared. When he said in an interview later that it was frightening, I think that’s exactly how he was feeling—it shows. He was also heard telling Vanessa “I was freaking out up there”. Well, Zac, my boy I think you better get used to it.

I know, Karen. I love that. And, I agree…I think a lot still freaks him out…and I think that’s a great thing…it’s what continues to show how humble he is and unassuming. Yes, he’d better get used to the accolades that are sure to follow him in life, but at the same time, if he retains a lot of that wide-eyed wonder, that’d be great. It really is such an endearing quality. :-)

I can’t believe people are actually complaining about Zac winning because he got more votes. That’s how it was set up, for the person with the most votes to win. Instead of trying to bring Zac down next time try voting for the one you want to win. I’m happy my votes counted. Congrats, Zac you deserve the win. He was the biggest “breakout star” to me

sara, thanks for the link to the commentary.

It’s really sad that people had to find anything negative about Zac’s deserving and winning this award! As far as his acceptance speech, I thought it was perfectly said. Let’s keep in mind what the award is…an MTV Movie award, not an Oscar, Emmy, Golden Globe, etc. I think what he said, thanking the people DIRECTLY associated with Hairspray including Nikki, those who took a chance on him for the role,and the fans who voted for him was PERFECT. This was NOT an award to thank every creature on the face of the earth, God, his parents, his girlfriend, etc. THAT would have been really tacky!!!!!

I’m sure he feels grateful to his family and Vanessa for all their support and tells them often. I just think for a short acceptance speech, he thanked who he needed to and was perfectly gracious and certainly appreciative!!

Did anyone notice how many times Zac and Vanessa were shown during the MTV awards? I don’t believe anybody else was shown on camera as many times as they were. Of course, when you look as good as either of these two young people it is hard for others not to notice.

Exactly, Tee!

Completely agree, go sox! Seriously, given the “that’s what she saids” and all the other antics (which I loved and am not knocking) at the MTV awards, Zac waxing poetic about his love for his girl, his family, his very breath, etc. would not have been appropriate. He thanked Vanessa before he went up on that stage and I’m sure he thanks his loved ones on a regular basis for all their support. He just seems like that kind of guy.

Karen - yes! I could not get over how many times they were shown. It just made the awards that much better for me…it was great seeing those flashes to them…you could tell they were really enjoying themselves and that just warmed my heart…probably the camera man’s too. LOL.

Ok, Karen and Zac Fan, I only saw them flashed once!! I guess I should watch again!! Must have been when I was switching between the awards and the Sox game…..bad girl.

My country is very small and the people around here know almost nothing about Zac and/or Vanessa. So imagine my excitement when in the evening news Zac and Vanessa were shown as the ‘most powerful A-lister young couple of Hollywood’. And no matter that the news was about MTV Movie Awards in general, they didn’t show Will Smith, Johnny Depp or P. Diddy (they are bigger stars here), the clip was only about them. I was sooooo proud!!! And they looked sooooo good in big screen. (It’s funny but besides HSM1&2 and Hairspray, I’ve only watched YT videos about them that were mostly blurry.)

midnightwonder, that must have been exciting for you!! I guess we don’t always appreciate how quickly we get news here. But I love the fact that they were called a “powerful A-lister young couple”. And they’ve become comfortable with that….not pretentious, keeping to themselves as much as possible, and not at all like Heidi and Spencer.

They most certainly seem to be being taken seriously these days. I was getting so tired of some of the entertainment news shows—although covering them—making it sound more like “it’s such a sweet little thing” like they weren’t worthy of serious consideration simply because of their age. I think they may be getting ready to put their stamp on a lot of people’s minds. Unfortunately that will probably only bring more resentment and/or jealousy from certain types.

I agree, Karen. They are also going about their relationship their own way, and keeping the public’s noses “out of it”, as Zac once said. As long as they continue to keep the world OUT, they’ll be fine. We can see they love and support each other in a way that’s beyond their years in maturity. The way Zac was at the awards tells me he is happy, supported, loved, and confident. I’d say things are working well for him!!

Well, go sox, because it was the Sox, we’ll forgive you. ;-) Check out 1) when the two guys win best fight, 2) during the Wayne’s World skit, 3) during the Duane Johnson, Steve Carrell, Anne Hathaway humorous bit, 4) when Johnny Depp wins (I think the first time), and of course you’ve seen the fabulous part where Zac won. LOL!

Oh, midnightwonder, that’s so exciting! I’m glad they were recognized like that. They deserve it. Thanks so much for sharing that!

I agree with Karen and go sox, and I think Zac and Vanessa are growing as a couple and seem most happy when they are not constantly hounded by the paps. I’m sure their time together after being apart, and the low key lifestyle in Salt Lake City have helped a great deal too. If and I say If, they were to settle down , I would not in the least be surprised if they moved out of the LA area. THey both really hate the paps and Vanessa stated in one of my daughter’s teen mags( though they are not always reliable) , that things are different in LA. She will really miss her time in Salt Lake City.

I do remember reading recently that there was speculation that Vanessa may have bought a house in the LA area though. Does anyone have any further info on this? Thanks.

#146—#153:

You know most people your age just go play in the sandbox. But one thing I would definitely advise is to work on your vocabulary because you are desperately in need of a few more words.

wooh
in your face karen
biotch

you got that right

OK, kids, I’m probably old enough to be your grandmother. “YOUR” business as you call it should be taken elsewhere. Sorry, but your language shows how immature and illiterate you are. With your “I bet you’re scared tactic” makes you sound like little bully kids out on the playground trying to incite a fight with the “I dare ya!” “Chicken”… I am not in the least afraid of you little brats who have nothing betting to do than show your ignorance. There is a “report abuse” link on each post and I would suggest people start using it. I know I will.

By the way, I’m 54 years old.

well i am srry i have noe idea wat u jst said bt me n my friends were jst having fun and then you said sumthing so thought you were at least our age

Hey Karen, it looks like summer has finally arrived where I am and also here on Just Jared!

Something to look forward to….http://zaangels.com/2008/06/06/17-again-release-date/

zefron hater, maybe you and your peeps oughta go back to the ‘hood, and adjust your ‘tude. You don’t hafta like Efron. But you gotta realize others do, so chill. You’ll get no respect talkin’ like that here.

But if you wanna talk nice, then we’re here.

Right you are KellyT, schools out and the parents aren’t home. I guess we are the next best thing.

Like Go Sox said, if you kids wan’t to talk nice, we are here to listen.

#161 & #162:

I accept your apology but please understand there is nothing achieved in the language you used earlier. It doesn’t make you sound like you have as much brain power as I am sure you do. Plus, there are really young kids that come on this Just Jared and should especially to read things about Zac and/or Vanessa and they should not be exposed to that type language. This is not the type place for that talk. But we regular posters love to talk and hear opinions from all ages—just try to keep it rated PG.

I posted this in the other Zanessa thread, but in case people may not have seen it:

Disney’s official HSM 3 website is open (just a few photos for now):
