Zac Efron Voices Adult Swim’s “Robot Chicken”
Zac Efron sheds his goody-two-shoes image to voice the character of lounge singer “Billy Joel” in this new clip from Adult Swim’s animated series Robot Chicken.
In the show, the 21-year-old former High School Musical star beats a sailor over the head with a beer bottle, dumps his body in the ocean and manically laughs about it.
Zac even gets to belt out his own rendition of Billy Joel’s “The Piano Man”! But in the end… his character gets brutally (but amusingly) stabbed to death.
Check out the NSFW clip below!

if zac doesn’t get his hair cut i hope he combs it back for the golden globes so we can see his face and eyes.
That’s exactly what I meant, tina! I meant the last HSM red carpet, unless they have a DVD premiere event again. But last time, they went casual-cool. That’s good too.
I certainly hope for many more non-HSM red carpet events!! Those pics are the only ones I feel happy looking at, since they’re ok with public appearances. I always feel a twinge of sadness for them with pap pics.
#144, I totally agree with you. People can like Zac and Vanessa, as I do, but they(Zac and Vanessa) do have their lives to live and people need to accept that. But some people I think because they like them so much and care about them so much, worry when something doesn’t seem right in their relationship. But we all need to let them be.
Soni, how do you know when something “doesn’t seem right”? You don’t know them, at all. A picture does not tell you anything, and people here analyze them WAY too much. It’s so ridiculous.

I’m not the least bit concerned about who goes to the GG I just remembered that people who are involved in precelebration activities are usually invited but they don’t have to attend. I don’t think (after 10 years of marriage myself) that any couple have to be together all the time.
Do you like your future son-in-law??
Desiree:

Nice Zac Pixs (first 6) Don’t know what they are from though.
Everyone is happy when For Real posts I guess. I hope the person is for real and they sound like they are.
I find the privacy answer isn’t a everything answer. I don’t expect to be privy to the private relationship I don’t want people in mine but I admit if they don’t attend the awards tomorrow I’ll wonder.
Brad Pitt protects the privacy of his relationship but he’s not tripping over being seen with Angelina whether he’s at a place to present or stand around that is his woman and he doesn’t care who knows it. It doesn’t effect their privacy, he’s not into flirting with other women and he’s proud of her.
Peggy:
The pictures are from a party for the Globes Zac attended last night
who are you for real and how do you know zac and van?
desiree, no need to wonder if he doesn’t take Vanessa. Both Zac and V do a good job of keeping professional obligations separate from their personal relationship. They have both attended awards events alone. As a matter of fact, the Palm Springs Festival last year surprised us all when he took Vanessa, because he had been doing all the Hairspray events alone.
I think, until they are a committed couple, like engaged or married, we will not see him bringing her to his professional appearances. But, hey, there are always surprises…….
peggy, I have no idea why my comment is awaiting moderation above, but yes, LOL, I do like my future son-in-law. He’s great, and the best part for me is, he’s a perfect fit for her, personality-wise, and he adores her. They met the first day of college, and now they’re 24, so they’re excited to move on to the next part of life for them!!
You are very nice to answer me go sox but I think this is a hard sell when there will be presenters there and every at award show with their other halfs and 90% won’t be engaged or married. And to regard making a 30 second to 1 minute present as so much Work you can’t bring you’re girlfriend of 3 years is stupid. Don’t you think 3 years is a committment of some sort.
I can be persuaded usually not this time. He should be proud to have such a beautiful woman on his arm and if he’s not then he’s not too bright or he’s checking out the other flavors in hollywood and you can’t do that when you’re with someone.
desiree does this look like he doesn’t want to be seen with her? Sorr but uou make NO sense. http://zaangels.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/3.jpg
Des, their showing up therefore will appease your insecurities and conclude that they are proud of each other to be seen in a public event as GG?
Don’t you recall the other public events when they did just that? Van said she is proud of her man (Palm Springs 2007); and Van clapping for Zac when her won the Breakthrough Role in HS. There are pics of Zac showing off his popcorn award to Van and she was very proud.
In this event, Zac is just presenting; he is not even nominated. I will very bad if he was nominated and she was not there. There is a difference. But I understand where you are coming from - you just want them to publicly show off their relationship because you are a Zan fan.
desiree, I’m not really disagreeing with you. Yes, after 3 years, a guy should have no problem showing the world he’s proud of his woman. But Zac, as much as he wants to be, is not living in a “normal”world. He is trying to be very protective of his relationship, and that means not parading it around, and opening it up for public scrutiny.
This IS a professional obligation, even though it’s 30 seconds long. They are both trying to establish their individual careers, and do not want to be known for JUST being a couple. So think about it…..what happens when he brings Vanessa? The photographers focus on THEM, the reporters focus on THEM, and THAT’S what they don’t want. Since this IS a Zac committment, he will probably do this one alone.
Like I said though, they do love to throw us surprises!! So I know you’re hoping….secretly, I’m hoping too!!
Morning Go Sox:
Great Response!!
Thanks for your sober comments I’m losing patience so I thought it best I don’t respond? Is it cold there today???
I think a lot of people forget that Zac is only 21, and V 20. All the 21 year olds I know go out get drunk, have fun, date different people every week and are just generally care free. So in that sense, Zac is very mature for his age, he cares about his privacy, especially where Vanessa is concerned. He is just a guy though, he is not perfect, so don’t expect him to be. He is not Brad pitt either, a lot of people put the presures of an older guy onto his shoulders. Yes, 3 years is a very long time for a couple so young these days, especially in Hollywood, I can’t even think of another couple like ZV, he is obviously comitted to her and she him. If he doesn’t take her tonight, it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love her, thats such a utterly stupid thing to say. For Real is right, the reason they keep their relationship so private is because of all the fan’s/haters pouring over every pic, every video, every facial expression, and thats got to be tough, so speculation is only going to serve to make that worse. It’s not our place to judge them.
And please, if he doesn’t show up with V tonight, don’t make a big deal of it. It is a work event for Zac. It’s a chance for him to mingle with the big stars, perhaps not be HSM boy for the night (so hoping he gets introduced as something pertaining to 17 or MAOW). He loves V, and yes he has turned up to events with her before. But Go Sox is right, this is work and if he shows up with V, it will be all about them as a couple. I’m not saying he minds that, but his agency/management might. I do have a feeling however that he will take her, there was even an article that said he would. We will have to wait and see though.
I seriously love this video, just can’t stop laughing at it. I love how he was able to do this and no one knew. He got to show that funny side that Disney have managed to keep hidden for so long.
I agree with #169 and would like to add. Just because you don’t see picture of Vanessa doesn’t mean she wasn’t there at any of the afterparties.
I don’t understand why everyone is so ready to make a big deal out of something and try to find a problem. To me, like For Real. that makes me wonder if there is something missing in your life. Nobody knows what will take place for these two by the end of this year. I don’t know what my life will be like at the end of this year and none of you do about your own life. So saying that, I’m asking you worriers and doubters: What are you going to do if they would move on to someone else? I don’t see any indication of that happening but if you are going to read all this stuff into their relationship just if they don’t go to this together I think it would be good for you guys to start focusing on something else. It seems like these two are having way too much influence on your emotions. Also, you guys are placing way too much pressure on this young couple. Just like this video where it the piano man sings how he can’t give this up because people will blow their brains out onto the floor. That is how some of you act when you make it sound like you can’t stand if if they do something that does not meet your criteria of being in love. NOT ONCE has Zac acted like he is ashamed of Vanessa being his girlfriend. Everyone knows she is and if she is not there tonight people are still going to know it! Please, try to get your head around this. It is only your criteria that isn’t being met as to what a boyfriend should be doing, not everyone else’s. This is what you want to see and if you don’t then there must be something wrong. Maybe it is your thinking that is wrong and maybe your relationships—if you have had any—will be better served if you change a few of your rigid opinions.
#157, No I don’t know them personally. But I have been married to my husband for 23 in a half years and I DO know some things about relationships. But I also think you need to read the last eight words of what I wrote in #156
Well, either way–if Zac brings Vanessa to the Golden Globes or if he doesn’t–people are going to complain.
If she’s not there, then all the insecure fans will be saying they’re not together anymore.
If Vanessa is there, the insecure fans (like desiree #161) will be putting the pictures under a microscope and looking for any little thing that will point to something “wrong” with the relationship–he’s not looking at her; he’s not smiling; she’s not smiling; he’s holding her the wrong way; he’s not standing close to her; she’s not standing close to him; he looks unhappy; she looks unhappy . . . . . .
So, you see, it doesn’t really matter whether Vanessa is there or not. The insecure fans who are so focused on the relationship will find problems. Because they are LOOKING for problems.
It seems as though the fans who don’t have a relationship of their own (or have been in a bad one where the guy/girl cheated on them or didn’t really care for them) are going to make Zac and Vanessa’s relationship theirs and make it work the way THEY want it to.
I say we let Zac and Vanessa do things the way they want. After all, it is THEIR RELATIONSHIP.
When I read an article about the Golden Globe today, it did say this:
“Among the interesting couples attending as presenters, nominees or simply as dates are Zac Efron and Filipino-American actress Vanessa Hudgens,…”
so I would say that there is a big chance that Vanessa is going to be there, which I hope, I always love what she wears and it’s always very well chosen for the event in question, and I’m curies about what she would wear to a big award gala like that. It was a bit funny that they were writen as the first couple in a list with several known once, such as “Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Sasha Baron Cohen (will he come as flamboyant fashion journalist Bruno, his character in an upcoming movie?) and Isla Fisher, Robert and Susan Downey, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Kate and husband, Best Director nominee Sam Mendes, Pierce and Keely Brosnan, James Franco and Ahna O’Reilly, Dustin and Lisa Hoffman, Emma Thompson and Greg Wise, Seth Rogen and Lauren Miller, Sean and Robin Wright Penn, Laura Dern and musician Ben Harper, Steve Carell and Nancy Walls.” But we’ll see, I just thought that I should mention it when I saw it.
I think she may be there since she was part of the pre event festivities. But if she’s not she’s not. I can’t worry about something until there is something to worry about and even then I won’t worry LMAO!!!
Love all the great sensible posts from people in real relationships with real lives.
Here is a link to the article e #174 mentioned.
http://showbizandstyle.inquirer.net/entertainment/entertainment/view/20090111-182701/Golden-night-for-Heath-Meryl-Kate
e:
It seems implied that the fact she is Filipino American makes them interesting - it seems a bit racist. Anyone agree? They didn’t say Jewish American actor Zac Efron.
The press can be so dumb sometimes.
They are interesting because they are both beautiful, young, rich and handle their lives and relationship with maturity for ones so young.
I find the remark about ethnicity kind of offensive. What do you guys think????
#177, Peggy, it still amazes me that people do that–mention someone’s ethnic background when they write about them.
