Nikki Blonsky: I Love Zac Efron With Every Inch Of My Body

Nikki Blonsky: I Love Zac Efron With Every Inch Of My Body

Nikki Blonsky gave Entertainment Tonight her first interview since her arrest last month. (Nikki’s family had an all-out brawl with former America’s Next Top Model contestant Bianca Golden’s family at a Turks and Caicos airport.)

The 19-year-old actress says her friends and family have been there for her through it all, including her Hairspray castmates: “They have all been extremely supportive. We are a tight-knit family. We’re just happy to be back together. My family is my life. The best gift that I’ve even been given is my parents.”

Nikki says co-star Zac Efron has been a special source of strength for her, “I love him with every inch of my body and soul. He has been an amazing support system.”

Nikki is currently preparing her nightclub debut at Feinstein’s in New York City that will run from September 23rd to October 4th. Her special performance will feature songs from Broadway, the Great American Songbook and pop classics.

I’m a Zanessa fan. Just wanted to put that out there in case I sound like a hater.
First off, it’s wrong, what she said. She could have just said something a little different. Meaning, she could have sounded like she is not head-over-heels in love with Zac but maybe, just maybe she’s thankful for the support he has offered as a friend. And all the Zanessa fans out here trash talking her (Nikky), I’m sorry but you are just making us sound immature. It sounds like you just can’t accept the fact of Zac having a female friend (that is not Ashley) and have to make her sound bad just so Zac and Vanessa stay intact but, trust me on this, it’s just making Z&V look vulnerable. We all know how strong of a relationship they share but please, you don’t have to stoop down to the haters level to show so. You are probably insulted by her comment but just suck it up and move on. I know that’s what I always hope the haters will do but unfortunately we cannot always have our way! Just one little piece of advise: Be the bigger person and ignore them!! If you have faith in Z and V’s relationship then I don’t think you have to go and defend them because you should already know that they are not going to break up over this. What ever comeback you have; keep it to yourself.

**I’m not trying to be rude or anything I’m just advising you. It’s your choice whether to follow it or not.

Hey Naomi and Betty, it’s great to see some rational people here.

There is nothing wrong with Nikki’s friends being supportive of her, but why the need to single out Zac specifically? Doesn’t it insult the other friends that he was the only one mentioned by name?

Oh, and unless I am mistaken, I failed to see where she thanked those friends for being supportive.

Some people just don’t have a sense of propriety when it comes to expressing themselves.

Propriety: good manners, respectability, decency, etiquette, restraint.

seriously who says that about someone’s else boyfirend she should have at least said it in a friendly was

I’m sorry for Nikki. Because Zac kissed her in public and she thinks in your wildest dream that Zac will live his precious love (Baby V) for her. Zac and Baby V have something so special that is hard to find in a relationship. They keep getting better according to their duet “Can I have this dance” Zac is a nice guy and people like Nikki mistakes that for love. Zac has only one true love and that is Baby V + Zac = Zanessa! Enjoy the cutest couple in the world and please keep your tissue by your side because it’s going to be emotional.

Nikki is no threat to their relationship. She is really just a friend, and that’s fine!! Glad Nikki had some friends to support her through the ordeal. And it’s not over yet. Everyone just needs to chill over this whole thing!!!

Thank you JJ for posting this. It is really wonderful she has so much support behind her not just her fans but her friends as well.

why are you guys all calling out vanessa on this one? jesus christ already. she had nothing to do with this.

Wow some you guys are immature as hell. Their friends and she appreciates that he helped through diffcult times. Whats the big deal. Its not like she said anything offense. And how does this all disregrad Zac and Vannessa relationship. No one know whats going behind closed doos, hell Vanessa might be supporting their friendship too.Guys and girls can be friends. Seriously huys grow up.

ZANESSA GIRL @ 09/15/2008 at 8:43 pm

Zac is really reallly really really 100000000x happy wid Vanessa she need to get that in her mind If nikki broke Zanessa up she wnt hve any fans at all left n heaps of people such as me n heaps of other peps I luv Zanessa

OH PLEASE @ 09/15/2008 at 8:52 pm

Give me a break… FRIENDS often say they love each other. Zac has many times said that he is Nikki’s FRIEND. In fact, he has said before that he loves her. So he has a girlfriend? Big deal! He can still have friends… or does Vanessa keep him on that short of a leash?

i think it’s very low class of nikki to drag zac into her problem. he had nothing to do with her getting arrested. i’m sure other members of the hair spray cast called her and offered support. but she respected them and didn’t mention their names.

so why does she drags zac into it by saying what she did? thinking as an adult, i can only assume she’s too young to understand the significance of what she said or that it would put the media spotlight on zac. something he does not want.

Nessy4ever @ 09/15/2008 at 8:58 pm

if vanessa was that jealous of zac she would have broken up with zac when he kissed nikki on that much on demand show.
and they are still strong so stop hating people and get a life!
vanessa is awesome!!!!!
love her forever!

he seems like such a great, genuine guy. people like him are hard to come by.
& im glad everything is better with nikki & her family!
<333

OH MY ******* GOSH!

Will you fuckers LAY OFF?!!?!

Zac and Nikki are BEST FRIENDS!

My goodness…this has NOTHING to do about her body type, either!

It doesn’t matter if he has a ******* girlfriend…he’s out there to support her! And the title? It’s just an EXPRESSION! Don’t YOU people love YOUR best friends? I know I ******* do! They’re my FAMILY! So, why don’t you fuckers GO AWAY and LEAVE NIKKI ALONE!

OH PLEASE @ 09/15/2008 at 9:08 pm

Um, kammie, did you ever think that maybe HE called HER to see how she was doing? I hear friends do that…

ZANessa_LUVER @ 09/15/2008 at 9:09 pm

“i truly feel sorry for this girl. she obviously has no life. to make a comment like that about a guy who is involved romantically with another woman is really really really sick. she must have a serious delusional problem. that fight was a true indication, but this woman needs mental help!”

i totaly agree lol! :) zanessa 4-ever! i bet shes sooo jealous of Vanessa! ahahahahaha!

I think it’s great what Nikki said here. Both she and Zac have talked about what good friends they were, and Zac has said that he became closest to Nikki and Brittany, beyond the movie. I’m glad to hear that Zac has been a great support to her, as friends should be. Nikki and Zac have never been shy about saying how close they became and how much they care about each other. I’ve seen time and time again what good friends they are, whether we see them out together or not. And this is another example of it. I think that Zac is someone that holds his friends very close to him, and when he has become friends with someone, they seem to be friends for life.

I think the Zanessa fans are pathetic for being jealous like this. Sure I’d love the idea of Zac and Nikki being something more, and who knows what might have happened or might happen in the future, but it doesn’t really matter. What I like about them is how close their friendship became, how affectionate and attentive they were together, and how much they genuinely care for each other. And it DEFINITELY is not one sided. It was usually Zac who reached out to take Nikki’s hand or put his arm around her during Hairspray promotion, so if her words are more vocal, his actions were more evident. And what really matters is that they’re friends and still close, and I think it’s great!

Also, to thos people criticizing Nikki for her weight, she has actually lost quite a bit of weight in the last year, as more recent pictures (e.g. the MTV Movie Awards) show, and she’s looking great, and very healthy. But that has nothing to do with her friendships. Her weight doesn’t matter to her friends, why should it matter to anyone else?

Also, anyone that has read or heard anything more than the most cursory initial reports of her Turks and Caicos incident will see that Nikki was attacked for basically no reason, and she defended herself, and her father defended her as well. Eyewitnesses have been clear about it, and one eye witness even said as much on camera.

Betty, I really think you’re being ridiculous in thinking that Nikki saying she loves Zac with every inch of her body is suggestive or inappropriate. She has said on numerous occasions that she loves him. I think it’’s cute that she is so open with how she feels. And I don’t think she says anything like that to try to interfere with your precious Zanessa. I’m sure that she and Vanessa get along fine, although I’d think Nikki would have questionable respect for Vanessa (as I certainly do) but she probably tolerates her as anyone would tolerate the person their friend was dating, like her or not. And who knows, maybe she even does like her, and they get along great.

Frankly, I don’t care that much for Zanessa, but it is the Zanessa fans that make them make me sick quite a bit of the time. I adore Zac, I tolerate Vanessa, but the Zanessa shippers drive me up the wall.

mannn this girl needs to back off zac..he already gotta girl.

ZANESSA<3

why can’t we just leave Vanessa and Zanessa out of this!?

seriously why bring them into now here in the post by JJ does Nikki mention Vanessa. we have no idea how these two girls get along! in fact if anything i would say that Vanessa is just proud of Zac for being such a great friend to Nikki!

I’m a Vanessa fan and i think Zanessa is cute but seriously there no need for some of the stuff that was said about Nikki especially in regaurds to her and Zac’s relation ship. zac and Nikki are FRIENDS and i think that is sweet!

and all you reall vanessa friends should know what a lovely girl she is and i would like to bet that she had tried to support Nikki too since she knows what its like to be dragged through the press like Nikki was.

I think Nikki looked stunning personally she looks very healthy.

I think it’s time to be mature-I tell my dear friend I love him all the time BUT I DO NOT nor WOULD I EVER tell anyone I love him with every inch of my body and soul. WHY? because that would be an open disrespect to his present lady and also inimates a different kind of love then one of friendship. Those are the words of someone in love which is not the same of friendship.

Also my bud would happily straighten me out about disrespecting his lady and relationship and well he should

#129,

Of course he called her to see how she was doing, he’s a good friend. It would have been nice if she reciprocated by either saying ‘I love him, he’s a great friend’ or whatever, people would take her seriously and appreciate the support she got from Zac.

Zac didn’t go around telling anyone he called Nikki, it was Brittany that mentioned that.
He IS a private person and was also protecting Nikki by not blabbing to the press how he supported her so he would not draw extra attention or blogging to her predicament.

She’s paid him back by sensationalising a genuine support. Did she need to add ‘with every inch of my body’?
All that accomplished was to draw the kind of attention he hates and which he did not subject her to.
Already JJ and Us weekly have blogged on it attracting unnecessary attention and vapid comments.

Friends respect each others privacy and he respected hers when she needed it.
