Zac Efron & Danielle Panabaker: Hugo’s Hotties
Zac Efron and Friday the 13th actress Danielle Panabaker grab lunch together at Hugo’s Restaurant in West Hollywood on Tuesday (February 24).
Zac and Danielle (both 21) starred in WB’s Summerland in 2004. Danielle’s younger sister Kay played Zac’s love interest on the show.
I ran into Danielle again at the Hollywood Life Oscar Viewing Party held at Mondrian Hotel’s Asia De Cuba restaurant on Sunday (February 22) in West Hollywood.
FYI: Danielle was not cast as Ariel in the remake of Footloose, which Zac will be headlining as Ren McCormack.

dinner*
Jared posted yesterday in JJJr. that it was lunch not dinner.
Seriously, what is the big deal? He is not jerk enough to treat Vanessa like he did Sunday night, and then rendezvous with someone else 2 days later. Probably wants to end those engagement rumors.
Zac needs to get his hair cut.
then he’ll be okay(:
cut your hair ZAC!
that shirt looks like it belongs 2 him with how big it is
u better not be cheating on vanessa u douchebag
number 13 dnt be an ass he is not a douche bag….so **** yourself there you go making more of something than needs to be…he went to lunch/dinner with a former coworker…..whom he has known since he was 8!!! get over it!!!!! :)
mike you are gay?
this was posted on jjj yesterday? why the heck post it again? maybe people didn’t react the right way on jjj, huh????? couldn’t get a good juicy rumor started over there? hehehehehe
EMO CUT
yes lol how did you guess??? lol :)
JARED, SHE WAS NOT ON SUMMERLAND! THAT WAS HER SISTER KAY. DONT CONTRADICT YOURSELF.
ashlee, good point. Even the title is annoying….Hugo’s “hotties”. Lame. Just itching to get something started. No reason friends can’t grab lunch.
hahaha i agree number 20 i agree with what you said…he was a total sweetheart at the oscars….hes not going to go and do something with a girl 2 days later lol
Aww how cute of them! Hope their romantic date went well and RACING eachother after that to? Well how do you like that!? Next thing you know they’re the next sweethearts…awww. I would not be surprised if I saw them holding hands like he did with Nikki.
I see the RODENT wasted no time jumping on this one.
LOL ..this kid’s finally embracing his homosexuality.

this girl is so pretty.
I like her.
she’s so cutyy ..
upgrade from nudie girl….yay!
I bored
Atleast she can act, can’t say the same about Zac, I mean seriously a washed up Disney star that’s done nothing. Thanks JJ.
wow his hair looks longer.
does anyone know/can tell where those jeans are from?
Wow, he looks even more fug with this ridic haircut, good job kiddo
She looks like Danneel Harris who is dating Jensen.
Nothing wrong with old friends hanging out. Last I heard she was dating Jesse McCartney, so it’s all good. This shows what kind of guy Zac is in that he cares about all his friends and keeps in touch with them. Vanessa went to a pilates class with Ashley and Brittany (Snow) and was seen on her cell phone, probably talking to Zac.
You guys need to chill out…
ok idc, zanessa is still good, it is just weird that there hangout and it has been like 5 years
She’s so useless.

ashley tisdale fans are such rodents.
This is my first comment on this page , but that’s so true the next time you see them together they will no doubt be holding hands like he did with Nikki god he was all over her like a rash while poor Vanessa had things to deal with back home some support efron gave her then I don’t think.
I’ve never seen her with him before ever so it looks really bad.
For Real is always saying he’s a man of honor wonder what he would say now. Zac knew how this would look he doesn’t care if Vanessa is embarrassed or has to listen to nasty rumors.
Some honorable man NOT.
#19, she actually was on Summerland, for an episode. Oddly enough she played Jesse’s “interest” and now I think they’re dating in real life. Clearly you’ve never seen all the episodes…
#27 great comment! I agree.
Go Zac, dump that Slutgens once and for all.
okay zack really needs a hair cut # 28 what the hell does being bored have to do with anything if you want to act chidish go to pbs.kids I am sure they will like your dumb comments
Zac, it’s so nice to see you out and about with someone besides that whiny , self-absorbed, girlfriend. You can have anyone you want so don’t settle for that trashy Vanessa.
I would love for Zac and Vanessa to get engaged. I think maybe when she turns 21. As for him going to lunch with Danielle, I am sure he left from Vanessa;s house, so she probably knew he was seeing Danielle for lunch. Plus there is no way he would be all lovey dovey and very attentive to Vanessa, and then 2 days later be out with some other girl. He is 100 percent involved with Vanessa and in love with her.
Awwwww, wonder if he is discussing the sad news that BOTH he and Vanessa made this years worst dressed list at the Oscars. Poor Zac needs a friendly shoulder to cry on.
I thought she (Danielle Panabaker) was seeing Jesse McCartney, or is that old news?
How sad that Zac can’t get a break. He has other friends that he cares about, not just HSM friends.
If people don’t back off regarding this “just lunch with an old friend,” then he’ll start feeling stifled because of Vanessa’s fans.
Please let him breath, Everyone. Don’t smother him.
Maybe just maybe he has friends?!? And maybe just maybe Vanessa is not a controlling, jealous person who demands that he spend all his time with her. From everything that they show- they have a healthy, serious, nurtured relationship.
And honestly, they probably don’t give two _ _ _ _ _ about what any of us on here say.
i agree with #27 and #29!
does anyone else feel that these photos of danielle and Zac are fake? seriously, their shadows are obviously way off and I can see a lot of poorly cut zac and danielle. And the photo of Danielle and Zac running away from the paparazzi is so fake, the background is sharp, while Zac and danielle is blur. even considering the motion blur, danielle should not look so blur because she is not running. Hence, I judged that these photos are fake. (the ones with Zac and danielle).
H, I agree with you. I think they have a solid relationship, and have their own friends. Nothing wrong with that.
Zac has a lot of friends. Whatamacalette has people she uses. I am discusted with Britney Snow. I thought she had better taste.
Time for a haricut, Zac
thanks for the photo ,sox, you can see how tight zac’s hand on vanessa’s shoulder,
#39–desiree:
If you are this type of jealous and suspicious person in your own private life, I can guarantee you that you will find nothing but heartache in intimate relationships. Zac nor Vanessa can control 100% of the time what people will say or think. There are always those who want to start something bad about them no matter what they do. Some people—like you—are way too unrealistic about human nature. Zac was not displaying ANYTHING that was questionable. It wasn’t like he was hiding in a corner in some little out of the way place in the dead of night. He was at LUNCH in a very public place with a girl he has known for a long time and most likely he was not doing it without Vanessa’s knowledge. It is when things are done on the sly and kept hidden from the significant other that leads to problems. Plus, witnesses clearly stated there was NOTHING in any way that showed any type romance or affection between Zac and Danielle. It was simply two friends catching up.
However, I do wonder why Jared felt the need to post this with these words today on the main site when yesterday he posted this on the JR site and clearly started out the story with the words PALS taking in lunch together. Please don’t make it seem, Jared, that now you are fishing for hits. Maybe now you think it is OK to make it a little more controversial since all over the internet this story has been circulating and it is CLEARLY saying how Zac and Danielle are just friends and were only having a friendly lunch.
wow he better not get with her. shes soo annoying. vanessa is too. i just want zac to get rid of that user vanessa because she has no future in fame.
#55–someone:
I think you need to be a whole lot more specific and explain yourself a whole lot better. What on earth has she done or is she doing that could be construed as being a user? She makes her own money doing her own work. For example, she made movies before HSM came along. She has gotten endorsements without “using” anyone but her own beauty, talent, and popularity. Her and Zac’s latest trip to Brazil was due to Vanessa WORKING and doing a photo
shoot there. She didn’t “use” anyone again. Those are only a few examples of how she makes her own way in this life and in none of those things could there be any reason to think she used someone.
God only knows what you mean by your last statement of “she has no future in fame”. The last time I checked this young woman was already famous whether you like it or not or whether you acknowledge it or not.
She should count her blessings he is still hanging around her or I should say he’s letting her hang onto him. She would have been long gone and forgotten if he would have dumped her right after those nudie pics. I am sure he had a say at convincing the bigwigs of letting her stay on for HSM2. And I’ll tell you why my theory is so. Check out Adrienne from Cheetah girls. When her semi nudie pics came out on the net, Disney cancelled their spot at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade in NY because they said the parade is a family event. Mind you, Adrienne is what 25 and engaged and her laptop, where her pics were, was stolen which led to the leak of her pics. VaneXXa was what 16 or 17 when she took her full nudie pics and they were posted all over the net Disney did nothing but hand her another chance at fame. That I’m sure had alot to do with Zac! At the time if he was really in love with her, he probably said, if she gets kicked off, I’m outta here too. Think about it! So yea, she should be thankful to Zac for keeping her in the limelight. You cannot be that gullible to think she made it all on her own. Pfhsst!
Mellie Mel——-It is absolutely hilarious how ignorant and pathetic you sound. Please bitter old hag worry about your own life. Because sweetheart people like you only get burned in the end.
Zac and Danielle are friends end of, most of you losers have obviously never been in a stable/adult realtionship where you can have a life outside of the other, as well as with them, funny that, but somehow it doesn’t shock me. Zac and V…aka power couple at the Oscar’s as named by People, and yes they were on the best dressed list, are fine. You idiots really need to get a life. Go worry about how pathetic your own lives are and stop hating on others, it’s sad and childish. Zac and V are happy together, they are strong and they certainly don’t listen to your mindless ranting, so go find something better to do. Go plant a tree or something.
On a side note, Zac and Danielle both look great. Thanks for posting JJ. Still hoping that she may play Ariel.
Oh II or whatever you go by….more like eww. I think you sound more pathetic and ridiculous than anybody else on here including the 10 and 11 year olds that post on here. Being ignorant is not in my vocabulary or my being. I am mature enough to separate facts from fiction. Didn’t you learn that in school or something. I also call them as I see them. It’s my opinion, take it or leave it. I see everything open-mindedly and I go from there. And you are absolutely right! I am a sweetheart to those that know me unfortunately for you, you will never have that privilege. So you must now move on with your unintelligent, immature, pathetic fantasy life. Go on and live life as if you are in this wonderful la-la hollywood land. My dear fool, you are the one that will get burned in the end when all the crap hits the fan with your precious illusions. Now THAT will be hilarious! I hope you kept the receipt to your HSM lunch box so that you can return it to WalMart when you get sick of the hype and when all is dead and gone. You poor THING.
Another thing, it’s great to finally see Zac out and about with other people. Be it friends, family or whatever. That is much more of a healthier “relationship” than always having someone cling to you 24/7. After a while, it gets sickening seeing them out and about together all the time. If you look beyond these catered Zanessa fansites, believe it or not, people are getting tired of it.
#57&60–Mellie Mel:
Please keep posting. You are making the fans who are here defending Zac and Vanessa with logic and common sense job much easier by every inane comment you make. If one can’t see how little sense you make and how resentful and full of yourself you are then they are as bad as you and I’m sure if they comment they will sound just as bitter and show just as much lack of understanding of things as you.
oooomg i hate zac’s new hair. i loved it when it was short. :)
super hot
hij is zo sexy
super hot
hij is zo sexy
Why are they lunching together? Ane why is his hair looking like that??
HEAT THAT WHITEY ZACK SO MUCG..HE DONT DESERV VANESSA AT ALL…HEAT HEM..
VANESSA PLEASE LEAVE HEM
AND CUT YOUR HAIR STUPIT
ZANESSA4EVERRR grrrr
they are just friends
kiss
Ohh Karen #61, fans like you help them make their millions. You probably even bought some Neutragena thinking you’d miracously look like her. Keep up the good work at defending them because you have no other life other than to sit there and browse for any kind of news about them to satisfy your need of feeling completely in the know. Bravo for you if it makes you feel better and makes you feel like you’re on top of the world by your dumb babble about how great they are. Remember they have no clue who you are and wouldn’t notice if you dropped off the face of the earth. Ha ha, you sound so pitiful and pathetic idolizing, fantasizing and having an obsession with a couple that frankly wouldn’t know you from a squashed bug on their windshield. Gotta love ya for all your efforts, you fool. It’s ok, maybe you’ll grow out of it, come out of your bubble and join the real world someday. We’ll welcome you with open arms. Go out and meet people you can actually talk to and have fun with. Best wishes to ya!
Mellie Mell:
If you believed all those things that you say and you truly wanted to be part of the liberated world, you wouldn’t be here insulting those who get enjoyment from it. You wouldn’t even know people like me existed but you must try to find something else to do as you must not have so many friends or anything else to do either.
Like I said, keep on as it is apparent who has the problem.
Oh Karen, you’re so cute when you’re trying to share your 2 cents. I applaud your efforts. Someday you will find, that people have different opinions other than yours and you’ll have to live with it. You should know that pouncing on people that do not agree with you just isn’t the way to go. In fact, it may lead to overexerting yourself with comebacks. It actually makes you sound obsessive. Perhaps your point of you isn’t necessarily the right one, but if you choose to believe it, do so, it’s ok. I see it gives you great gratification to jump in and call certain people out when they don’t agree with you since you are always on here. Maybe there is something wrong with you! It makes me wonder if you suffer from OCD or something. There are medications for that. Talk to your physician about it. For now, you take care of yourself little buddy. As always, best wishes to you and your conquest to rule this fansite and continue to ridicule people that don’t agree with you or I should say are not as obsessed and possessed as you are.
Being a nurse, I know all about medications for OCD and many more things. You might as well quit insulting me for not agreeing with you and being condescending like I am a child it only makes you look more pathetic. If you know I have been on these boards for some time—just like many others—then it would seem you also have been on theses boards for just as long whether you have posted or not. It looks like you are no different than me—only that you disagree in how you feel about these people.
BTW, Mellie Mel, neither of us are going to agree here. I get your goat and you want to take me on more than any other defender on this board and I don’t see why. There are more than me who say and do the same thing but you just dislike me more. So, I guess I’ll just be flattered. But I do not wish to give JJ any more hits in this way or he will just continue to post things that will cause controversy. I wish to give attention to Zac and/or Vanessa for their accomplishments. They deserve it…and you know what? I don’t care if they know who I am or not. I would say most fans feel the same way about whoever they like and whoever movies they follow. I don’t belive any fan is thinking a celebrity is ever going to know who they are personally. When you throw that insult at someone trying make them look stupid just makes you look desperate instead.

You got it Karen. Whatever psycho babble you said (plays the violin). Thanks for coming back twice to clear it all up. I hope you feel better now.
Oh Mellie Mell…werido, you sound so utterly pathetic it’s untrue. Quite comical in a way, how you are trying to belittle others with your apparent ‘big girl’ talk. Just look at what you have said, so child like and unbelievably stupid.
Karen, you are amazing. Zac and V would be very proud of everything you say. They appreciate fans like you, and all the other defenders. People who actually speak sense and with real conviction.
Zac and V are a happy couple, he loves her, it so blatent and obvious. Go see the Watchman premiere pics, the Oscars etc. He is the one who holds on to her, who takes her hands, who looks at her as if she is his whole world. If you can’t see that, fine, but I sugest you make a better effort to see love in your own lives, or you may end up very lonely indeed. As for Zac and V, they will exsit outside of all this as usual, living their lives with each other.
