Zac Efron Covers Interview Magazine
Zac Efron strikes an artistic pose on the April 2009 cover of Interview Magazine.
The cover claims “Zac Efron is the future.”
DO YOU THINK Zac is the future?
FYI: Zac, 21, attended Taylor Swift’s concert last night (Thursday, March 12) at The Factory Theatre in Sydney, Australia. Taylor had also supported Zac at his 17 Again premiere on Wednesday.
Don’t forget to enter to win Zac’s SIGG water bottle!

Why are boys pouting nowadays, him and that pattinson on the cover of magazines, pouting. c’moonn be a man.
1sssstt.
1sssstt.
The future? I hope not.
the future? please he’s in line with paul walker and orlando bloom, pretty to look at but not much there. his movie 17 again will tank and he’ll run back to High School Musical. No need to know the future when we still have Leo Dicaprio and Johnny Depp. Those guys know how to act and dont look like a lil prissy girl whos in the closet. Efron is a lil twinky girl. Id rather see the talentless robert pattinson than efron
not liking the pout, c’mon zac, butch it up a bit!
ugly
HOTT… but I heard he smokes pot or sumtin… lame… i hate vanessa
Really? Effeminate, floppy haired boys the future? Time to man up.
I love him. He is so hot. I hope he is the future.
Pretty boys are okay if they have something more behind the face. The only way he’ll be the future is if his acting kicks ass. Don’t rely on the pouty pictures and gelled hair, Zac, cause it will only take you so far. Don’t allow yourself to be pimped out.

I think he is the future because he’ds an amazing actor and if he gets the right roles he can reach whatever he wants!
He’s just so talneted!
So I think YES!
he’s the future? now i’m seriously considering about this choice, suicide or kill him, before the futures arrives.
he is soo 2007. sorry. (:
Future? No, not in the same league as Depp, Dicaprio,Penn and Pitt.
where is the interview? it’s not about his face. it’s about what’s inside him. and this post should be about his interview with this mag. why mention again that zac went to taylor’s concert and she went to his red carpet? that’s already been covered. this is about something else. sounds like jj is trying to compete with the sleazy tabloids.
love him and his magazine covers are always hot. I’m a fan of interview magazine cause it’s different then the others and I have been waiting for them to put him on the cover I have to have this issue!
Love the cover!
Why do people like being ridiculous?!!!
Are you comparing him with actors twice, thrice his age and experience? Does that make them look good? Please, let’s be real here.
Zac has never claimed to be in the same league as Depp and Dicaprio, he looks up to them and hopes to emulate their careers. What’s wrong with that?
By the time, Zac is Depp’s age, Depp would be in his seventies, so yes, Zac is part of the crop of future talent.
I bet when they were Zac’s age, DiCaprio and Depp posed for these mags (are still posing for them) and had such drivel written about them, it didn’t affect where they are now because they know it’s all media shenanigan.
Give Zac credit, he knows that too and I’m sure he’s aware that it’s his talent that will give him longevity in hollywood, this is just necessary promo which EVERY actor in hollywood does including veterans like Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt.
Let’s not come with the false sense of outrage like he’s doing what others haven’t done before. If you’re going to criticise him, have the honesty and integrity to do it justly.
I like the artisitic look of the cover. I really hope this time they gave him a sensible interview that will appeal to a broader base than tweens.
He’s an intelligent 21 year old that has more depth than his looks and his PR needs to start showing that if he’s going to transition this heartthrob phase well.
i don´t like him

reading comments like yours naomi are like a breath of fresh air. I agree with you 100% well said. And #10 I think you’re talking about pattinson.
DANNNNNNNNNNNG EFRON GOT IT GOING ON!
you hit the nail on the head naomi. saying we shouldn’t be looking forward to zac’s career in acting just because johnny depp and dicaprio are still around is the same thing as saying that depp and dicaprio shouldn’t be given a fair shake because deniro and pacino are still alive and kicking.
Robert Pattinson is the future.
Ugly
Robert Pattison is HOOOOT
The future?
Of course!
He’s like the most perfect human being on earth, who better to be the future?
yes!!i love him so much.He’s intelligent actor
Not in the same league as Dicaprio. Can you honesly see him doing the role Dicaprio did in What is eating Gilbert Grape. I am not talking about the present I am comparing him to what this older actors did when they were younger.
of course zac is the future!!!
I mean I get the zac efron has a bright future and I think he will do really well but I don’t get why he is on the cover of interview…well I guess Andy Warhol would have totally approved.
zac is ******* ugly and so is ******* ugly ass robert pattison
to
The photo is so artistic!
http://www.IGotConverse.com
um for your info a total fan zac played an autistic teen early in his career and was very good. and for you rob fans this is a ZAC post and there is one for rob’s GQ cover so I suggest you go there. Get a life.
I don’t see why people feel the constant need to compare zac to robert pattinson when zac was around when rob was nobody.
If this guy/girl is the future we are in big trouble.
future…god help him!!!
he is nothing…he got famous with hsm and thats all..
so fast that he came on scene so fast he will sink!!!
by by little zac….
The future? I don’t think so. He’s gonna be old news unless he goes back to High School with the teenie - boppers. A mature audience will never pay to see him in anything.
Seriously who in their right mind thinks this guy will even be remembered in a few months.
I find it interesting that when Zac talked about the night he was at the Lakers game the same night Leonardo DiCaprio was there and they sat together courtside, Zac’s account of that night was that they “talked the whole game” and made it seem like they were such good friends after that game. However, if you watched an interview E! News had, and they asked Leo about that same encounter, Leo’s response was that they talked very “briefly” and had only met each other because Leo was there with a friend (Kevin Connelly) who sat next to Zac, according to Leo. Funny how they have 2 very different accounts of the same night. It seems that meeting meant more to Zac than it did to Leo, obviously.
Gee, ‘talentless’ Zac is seriously getting people’s panties in a twist. LMAO!
I agree that Zac Efron is the future … I think he a great actor and very talented, Zac surprise me every film he produces … Congratulations on your success Zac … I not speak this because I am fan of Zac Efron … more because I love him … because every day he is my first and my last thought, because he is the person to complete my heart and my life, because he really teaches the meaning of the word ‘love’, because he is my other half … even I know he does not know me and that I live far more of him .. I love him very much and I will always love!
Kisses it’s fan: Ana Luiza
cccwww-Here’s a video of the game that Zac went to with Vanessa. Leo comes up to them to say goodbye. So whether or not you like Zac or Leo’s accounting of how they met–they’re friends.

Even with your face all painted, you look like a god.
The future of what? He’s nothing more then a Disney lapdog with a girl friend who is not much better.
They are too pretty faces but that doesn’t last much these days……you need talent.
Wow some people are idiots. Zac is the future get over it, He is talented, humble and a very funny guy.
Detractors are only futher reason to suceed. And let’s face it, most of you morons who ‘hate’ him, a) took time to look at this and post, and b) are fat losers sat at home just envious over the fact he has brains, looks, money and is just amazing.
Zac and Vanessa both rule. So suck it.
I think he is talented. And to whoever said he couldn’t do a Leo in Gilbert, newsflash but Zac actually played an Autistic teen in ‘Miracle run’ and I for one think he did a much better job than Leo. To my knowledge, Zac also won an award for his portrayal of Steven.
Leo is actually a mediocre actor. He has no comic in him, he is straight laced and boring. His movies are all serious and have no ounce of fun or lightheartedness in them, they are all the same. He is like a one trick pony. Lame as.
Wow Zachary. Looking good dude. He is the future, I agree with them.
I agree with Naomi. It’s so funny how poor ‘talentless’ Zac Efron gets more comments and more reaction than most of these so called ‘better’ actors. Show’s he’s doing something right. Both he and Van together and geez you have more comments than anyone else put together. They are that amazing. Whichever way you look at it, but commenting, you just add to their popularity, so really it’s a win win situation.
Zac…and V are the future. They ain’t going anywhere.
I think both Zac and V are the future especially after seeing the Bandslam and 17 Again trailers. I thought they were the future during HSM days
Get use to them folks they are here to stay
I think: Yes he is the FUTURE <3
I do not say that only cause I’m a amazing crazy fan of Zac, i say the truth.. i think really he is the future, he is the boy, where the world search about him.. I mean he is really BEAUTIFUL, CUTE, NICE, INTELLIGENT, SEXY x]] & loooootttss moooreee =]]
Zac is fresh blood. As is Rob, Kristin, V, Emilie, Shia..etc etc (I can’t be bothered to name anymore.) This is new young hip Hollywood. The future. Fresh talent intead of the old staid bunch who need to retire or think of something fun to do as it’s old and boring. These are the kids of the future. Hollywood execs know it, the casting directors know it. These kids are being offered parts left right and centre. And this is only the beginning. A fair warning I think you will agree, but Zac and his contempories are going nowehere.
Zac especially has a good head on his shoulders. He is sensible and about as down to earth as you can get. He has no endorsements, a normal attitude, he is hardworking and dedicated to his craft, he is intelligent and the guy is level headed. Can’t get better than that. Translation…Efron rules!!!
Love him, love him, love him.
The future ?? He’s old news ! lol Rob Pattinson is the future <3
He really is the future. People just need to wake up and realise.
17 Again is amazing people, go see it!!
#27 is right: Rob Pattinson is the future :p
Rob has nothing on Zac. I like him, but he’s too much of a drunk bum to actually make anything of himself.
I think what a lot of people don’t understand nor realise, is that all you have seen of Zac so far, has been his Disney PR self. That’s not Zac. And in time you will see him for the natural charming, self effacing, funny guy that he is. He is so normal and so unaffected, people don’t like that and so they pick him apart, because really he is just that normal. His own self is starting to show though, as 17 promo is going along. It’s a new Zac. An un-Disney Zac. (Same goes for his gorgous gf too, who will wow everyone in SP).
In the words of Linklatter..you underestimate Zac at your own peril. Because you ain’t seen nothing yet. This boy is here to stay.
Nikki:
V is part of that too with being pursued for 2 movies Sucker Punch & Dead @17 and being on the cover of so many mags and best dressed list and Bandslam trailers already being seen in movie theater.
She has a high profile as well. HSM3 made quadruple the money Twilight did. She and Zac are both recognizable around the world.
I’m not so sure about Shia anymore.
HSM3 made more money? I’m surprised since people act like it’s the next best thing. I’m glad though since I love hsm and the cast! no one I know likes twilight including my teenage nieces.
cccwww-Here’s a video of the game that Zac went to with Vanessa. Leo comes up to them to say goodbye. So whether or not you like Zac or Leo’s accounting of how they met–they’re friends.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5xGjLvUQ9A
This video means nothing. Obviously Leo is a very polite and classy guy who acknowledges his fellow actors. He even acknowledged Vanessa. What has more weight to me is how they acknowlege one another with their words, and I’m merely pointing out that Zac made the encounter with Leo out to be more than what Leo thought of it. I mean think about it, how can one person think of their meeting as a “brief” encounter while the other party chooses to describe the same event as “the whole game”. Very amusing - and actually, kind of embarrassing for Zac, if you ask me.
POPPY:
Glad to see you - things were getting pretty awful on the Zac at Taylors concert post. I finally just left.
Why are people so anxious to believe ZAc doesn’t love V or that he is not an honorable guy.
cccwww..blah blah blah
I think you will find that Zac did sit next to Leo for the whole game. Hence Zac’s comment. Zac is a natural friendly guy, Leo isn’t. That’s all there is to it.
Zac is amazing. Most actors twice his age could take lessons from him and how humble he is.
Oh my Gracemarie, don’t even get me started on that thread. Someone called free hour on the mental ward. It’s crazy. But we all know how in love ZV are, and so do they. Thats all that matters.
HE IS TOTALLY THE FUTURE *–* LOVE U ZAC, SO MUCH ♥
Well the men in the white coats need to deploy their forces and clean up the place.
P. Hilton is upset V would not take a picture with him. After all the stuff he has said about her and Zac I’m surprised she didn’t punch him in the nose
I love him!!! He is the future.
lucy…Yeah, blame Leo for your denial about what happened at an event that you weren’t even there to see.
http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b73591_Leo_s_Advice_to_Zac__Don_t_Make_Sucky_Flicks_.html
From E! News:
Sorry, folks, despite being spotted together at a Lakers game last month, there’s no real bromance blooming between Zac Efron and Leonardo DiCaprio. The two averted eyes at a recent GQ bash, and now Leo’s downplaying his friendship with the 20-year-old hottie.
He says of the basketball outing, “I went with my friend Kevin [Connolly] and [Zac] happened to sit next to me—we briefly chatted.”
Leo’s advice to Z.E.? “The flashbulbs, the interviews, all that stuff won’t amount to anything unless you create a body of work that people want to see.”
And according to Zac:
Zac also shared about meeting fellow actor, Leonardo DiCaprio, saying, “A few nights later (after the GQ party), I was at a Lakers game and I texted him, and he said he was coming. And this guy in a ball cap and coat with the collar up sits next to me. We talked the whole game, and he was just everything I thought he would be: smart, level-headed, charming, hilarious. You know, the older-brother vibe.”
How sad. Now he thinks of Leo as an older brother, while Leo said they just chatted briefly. Looks like lucy and Zac are both delusional.
#22–Naomi:
So well said, so perfect, so true.
Ah, another day, another batch of loonies!
BTW, just until the past 4-5 years Leo looked like some little round-faced boy. Finally he is now getting some age on him which is making him look loads more manly. Believe me, he didn’t look any different when he was Zac’s age although I will say I find Zac a heck of a lot better looking than Leo was then and now.
WHY NOT ?
#45–Kelly:
Actually Zac was at a game and sat right beside Leo BEFORE he and Vanessa were at another game where Leo came up to THEM to say Hi and shake Zac’s hand. I would say Zac did impress Leo with his attitude and actions.
#60–leigh:
When did your ship land from outer space?
Really? Vanessa refused to have her picture taken with Perez? Good going, Vanessa! Take that you Perez, you slimeball. Vanessa has way too much integrity for him!
yes perez is a slime ball. right now he has a post about this asking his readers to choose between zac and rob. and you know who they’re choosing. zac wouldn’t want the lowlifes on his site as fans anyway.
Some of you people are funny. Johnny Depp was on freaking 21 Jump Street and was a tween star just like Zac. Freaking 21 Jump Street!!! Then he was with Kate Moss and was bashing hotel rooms! Does anyone remember THAT Johnny Depp. I don’t see Zac doing the stupid things that Johnny did at that age.
Karen:
It’s in this post I think but I went over there (I guess I’ll have to shower again) and saw it mentioned.
Good for her!!!!! After all the insinuations about her man being gay and all the garbage he said about her. She should have slapped him in to next week.
But she’s got to much class for that Hilton loser.
ZAC IS DEF THE FUTURE :)
HES AN AMAZING ACTOR !!!!! <33
& Good Looking! Gotta Love him!
this is a really good picture of him
It’s not about looks. It’s about talent. Doesn’t matter if people/adults think a young adult is better looking than a adult. Depp and DiCaprio are the best actors of their generation, Zac may sing nice but his acting skills don’t interest me and I’ve actually seen some of his work besides HSM.
WTF? Umm ewww Zac is lame and so are his fangirls and no he’s not the future he’s the past.Wish Vanessa would break up with him…ughhh.
thats hot. :)
exuse me? you’re lame *******.
I saw that E! thing with Leo, and you know, it kind of reminded me of the Fay Dunaway comment when she found out Hillary Duff was playing Bonnie in Bonnie and Clyde.
Sounds as if Leo is trying to “downplay” that he actually spent time talking with Zac–”we chatted briefly.” And then he seems to be pointing a finger at the paparazzi attention Zac is getting. Even dissing the types of movies Zac makes.
Now, why would an established actor make comments like that? Or even have an attitude like that? Why would he feel the need to say such things?
Any 5th grader should know the answer to that question.
the future - jamie bell, emile hirsch, paul dano, channing tatum, robert pattinson, michael cera, daniel radcliffe, shia Labeouf, and the list goes on and on and on.
.
those are names of guys who have actually had to act in films. they actually have real material under their belts.
.
look @ who zacette has to go up against for film roles.. lol
Zac has always been focused as an actor. He was only 15 when he filmed “Miracle Run” and for that role he was nominated for a Best Young Actor award.
it’s ridicouls people try to down play zac’s talent cause he starred in disney movies. the most popular movie in the history of the disney channel by the way.
zac doesn’t have to compete with anyone. he’s at the top of the list. no competition. and no comparison. :)
he is the best!!!!
Why’s he getting blamed for the way the shoot looks? They direct him and dress him for their concept, he doesn’t have a say in it. His reviews for Me & Orson Welles were good so it’s not like he can’t act. He’s still young and making his way, Leonardo had Growing Pains and Johnny Depp had 21 Jump Street. Know your history if you want to say Zac won’t get anywhere in the business.
Leo’s young life was filled with turmoil because of his parents’ divorce. By around 16, he was a lost soul—part of the “P-u-s-s-y Posse,” who hung out together chasing girls and drinking. I remember reading numerous articles about him being drunk and getting into fist fights and brawls and going from one female to another in rapid succession.
So, maybe Mr. DiCaprio is envious of the stable, grounded and totally focused life Zac has at the young age of 21. Something Leo never had.
Because somewhere inside him—the place where envy smolders—the need to belittle Zac Efron came to life. Such words do not paint a positive or mature picture of Mr. DiCaprio.
love that picture

leo was what.. 19? when he did what’s eating gilbert grape, and this boy’s life (1993)?? lol hardly high school musical.. 1,2,3,4 and however many more.
god can the efron teenies stop dissing leo and no he wasn’t apart of the p ussy group”!
nina 94 sorry to tell you but it is true, leo was like that.
yessir i doooo !
zac efron is the best<33
I think Zac could be the future. I think he could be the future in a big boxoffice draw way like a Brad Pitt or Will Smith. I haven’t really seen him in other movies besides musicals latelely besides 17 again, but I think if he is to become the future in a amazing actor way like what his fans says then I think he should try now to open his range as an actor because truthfully I believe Emile Hirsch and Shia Labeouf were much more broader actors than Zac when they were his age. But I won’t count him out as not achieving that goal because I think if he really loves acting which I see he does then he can become the future in an amazing actor kind of way.
Also to be honest like Naomi said, we shouldn’t compare Leonardo Dicaprio and Johnny Depp to Zac Efron because they are in a different league than him, and to all Leo haters, I bet you Leo is no where near jealous of Zac with all the work he has done and the accomplishments he has made when he was the at the age Zac was.
i dont know about that future thing..
i mean hes great at what he does..
and im not saying that hes not..im just saying i dont know he might be.
and wtf jared…
whats up with the caps in FYI i mean i think people already know that.
its like your hoping for something to happen between them two?
I predict that he will drop his “girlfriend” as soon as the HSM franchise is over. He has to stay with Vanessa because they are selling the musicals. It wouldn’t set right with the fans if he was dating someone else instead of her. How can you sell a love story when the main actor is seen dating others. Its like when actors have to tour together and attend premiers. Reminds me of the Spencer couple. I don’t think they are a couple either.
a total fan-
whats up with you..umm they finished with HSM stuff a while ago.
and they ARE dating they have been for like 4 or 3yrs.
so stop with the hate..
and learn your facts.
:)
the boy has talents and skills aside from good looks, grounded upbringing and a healthy attitude towards his career. given good breaks and movie projects, he will go far. in his latest Today interview in Austrailia, he talked about how is seriously contemplating on his next project and deciding which way to go. he is a smart boy under those good looks and yes, he will one of the leading stars in a few years.
He is very, very, VERY overrated. He wouldn’t have half the attention he has nowadays if it wasn’t for his pretty boy looks and him being manufactured by Disney. I think the real ” future” should be actors like Derek Luke, Shia Labeouf, Micheal Copon, Coloumbus Short, and Nolan Gerard Funk. Not overrated talent challenged stars from Disney who are put in every movie to get more money from the HSM fanbase.
I can’t believe they are remaking Footloose.
And Twilight made more money than HSM3, not the other way around:
Twilight worldwide box office gross: $350 million
HSM3 worldwide box office gross: $244 million
Twilight actually crossed the $100 million mark in the U.S., while HSM3 did not.
I think the art work is amazing, JUST the art work.
He certainly is hot, but guys like Rob Pattinson or Zac are just pretty, but that doesnt exactly makes them good actors, honestly they could use more time on focusing on their acting skills than being celebrities.
I do like the avant-garde look to the Interview picture.
Some of the totally “uninformed” comments on here come right out of left field. And the same people post them over and over and over.
If those of you who hate Zac and Vanessa so much would just check a few facts before you post idiotic comments, you wouldn’t come across sounding as if the only emotion you ever feel is hate.
Zac does not focus on being a celebrity OR being pretty. He’s a “wash and wear” kind of guy who stays out of the spotlight except when he’s promoting one of his projects.
Zac was NOT created by Disney. He did two non-Disney movies before the HSM ones AND Summerland.
HSM is over, done, finished. His and Vanessa’s contract with Disney ended in November.
Neither Zac nor Vanessa work for Disney anymore.
thank you malia! and newsflash #102 shia and even stevens? DISNEY!
heck yes….zac is an amazing actor and he’s pretty darn hot :D
heck yes….zac is an amazing actor and he’s pretty darn hot :D
A TOTAL FAN:
The HSM franchise IS OVER. They are done promoting it and the music is out. What are you talking about!
He’s promoting 17 Again, She’s being pursued for Dead @17 AND Sucker Punch and will begin promoting Bandslam. They’re Disney days are over and done and Disney has no stake in their romance because they actually never did. Disney tried to make them downplay it.
We have been reading “fans” like you (and I use the term lightly) predict the end for years now, that’s right YEARS. They were going to break up: After the pictures of vanessa, after each one of the HSMs, after Hairspray, after HSM 3 came out then it got moved back to after the video came out then it got moved to after the music came out.
And here we are and here they are-actually showing their affection for one another more than ever before. Zac tells the press what and his premiere? He wishes V was with him.
Time to get over it
i love zac!!!
alright, you girls wouldn’t be supporting Robert Pattinson if it wasn’t for twilight\Edward Cullen.
zac efron is beautiful, i wouldnt be surpirse if he and chace crawford were voted as the most beautiful guys in the world, since they both look the same.
xoxo, zac efron & vanessa hudgens for the win :)
good point rock on.
#94–nina:
Oh, yes, Leo was a part of that disgusting “posse” alongside the likes of Tobey the Spiderman himself. It may not be either of these two would like to be know for at this time in their lives but it was true nonetheless.
And hearing Leo’s comments my first response was he was acting like a prick and downplaying Zac because he knows the way of the business and he knows perfectly well he will one day be the older guy who just may be losing out on scripts to the like of Zac Efron. Leo can see Zac has a lot of potential and that he is bound to only get better with practice and experience as he ages—and that age is going to be a decade younger than Leo.
But then I also tried to give Leo the benefit of the doubt and allow for the fact that Leo doesn’t speak to the press about private kind of stuff so he may have downplayed his conversation with Zac in thinking it was nobody’s business what he and Zac were talking about. And maybe he also understood that Zac is overrun with media and paps as it is and if he said something news worthy it would only put the spotlight on Zac or even him that much more.
No not the future, the past
#114 yes he is the future.
Go Zac.
he’s love :) <3
To those who have a roiling, coiling, boiling hatred for Zac:
You got mud on yo face
You big disgrace
Kickin your can all over the place
HE will HE will rock you
HE will HE will rock you
Kudos to Zac Efron. He will be the Paul Newman of his generation!!!!
Karen —-Leo didn’t even say anything rude. That e article is full of bs anyway. The GQ bash happened before they went to the basketball game. And the article that it links to is very negative to Zac. This is Ted Casablanca he is an ******* who likes to twist things and regularly attacks everyone including Zac, Vanessa and their relationship. When the hsm Latin America tour happened he went on and about how V was some evil diva bi*tch for not being at the first day of rehearsals when he was too much a moron to know that she & Zac were that elementary school for hsm. And the interviews etc from that were even online.
Ted Casablanca from E online is an low-budget Perez with better hair. He was always talk trash about the people he crushes on but have no chance hell of ever meeting.
There are other actors that I would say are the future: Emile Hirsch, Shia LaBouf, Robert Pattinson. I believe that Zac is way overrated. He just knows how to play the “Hollywood” game, but as far as real acting talent, way too overrated!
Amazing how the media can slant any interview/article to suit their prejudices.
Boy, it seems a lot of Zac’s fans are delusional! They paint whoever the other party might be as someone negative just to make sure dear Zac doesn’t look bad. It’s sad to hear them attack Leo (a very classy, talented and established actor with so much integrity) just because he didn’t have the same sentiment that Zac did of their time at a basketball game. I think you Zac fans may want to simply just grow up a bit!
why are people so riled up about the cover? zac’s great and he’s hot. and after seeing him in miracle run people can’t convince me he can’t act, sorry. everyone who works with him consistently say the same great things about him and know he has a great career ahead of him. I’d take their word over any of yours anyday.
he sucks
easy zacs futre bzac efron will have a carrer lyk brad pitt + he wll have his very own angeliena jolie = Vanessa hudgens plus a few kids xoxoxo
hope hes not the future, he needs to improve his acting skills
unfortunately his pretty face is helping him to have a place in hollywood and becoming more arrogant everyday..
i miss the old zac!!!!!!!!
hes soooooooo the future…..mine at least ;)
Admittedly, Zac is looking hotter these days since he appears to have grown some bone structure, and the hair slicked back also adds masculine appeal.
That said, he’s still the poor gay man’s Chase Crawford.
I don’t see that Robert Pattinson has demonstrated better acting skills than Zac. He was critically slammed all round for his acting in twilight.
Like Zac, he is popular because he is a teen/cougar hearthrob, nothing more.
At least Zac has been critically acclaimed for his acting pre-HSM and for his movie, Me and Orson Welles which was featured at the Toronto film festival and is not a ‘heartthrob’ movie.
Whatever people think of him, he has talent and potential and as long as he makes good role choices, he ain’t going anywhere which means, he is the future.
Leo and Travolta at one point in their career when they were young had to drop out of the movie scene to shed the hearthrob thing and came back and re-invented themselves. I’m sure there were people that wrote them off then much as some of you are doing to Zac.
Zac has is young and talented, he will make his mistakes and learn from them like others have done, he is hard working and determined and will get to where he wants to be.
It’s just a matter of time and people better get used to it.
of course zac’s the future.: :)
dude, leo is not classy. he may have a decent acting career, but he’s nowhere near classy. unless you consider skirt chasing classy.
ZAC IS THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE IS A VERY GOOD ACTOR AND A BEAUTIFUL PERSON. THEN ZAC IS THE MOST SEXY BOY OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Zac is only starting out away from HSM just give him time, 17 again dose look really good both robert and zac have a great career ahead of them.
Information
To the haranguers and sensationalists who are perusing this site looking for or attempting to create sleazy gossip–
Zac Efron is in Australia promoting his new movie “17 Again.”
That is his sole reason for being in the country.
Mr. Efron is doing countless interviews throughout the day–TV, radio and print.
Everywhere he goes, he is accompanied by a staff, including his publicist and a security detail.
Any entertainment venues or events he might attend are for the purpose of promoting his movie “17 Again.”
He has received back-stage passes to numerous concerts in the country, some of which he may or may not attend.
The final decision on which events to attend is made by Mr. Efron’s publicist, not Mr. Efron, himself.
The guiding force behind any public relations’ decision is “more bang for your buck.” So, whichever events will bring Mr. Efron the most attention and get his face before the public will be the ones chosen.
None of this promotional business affects Mr. Efron and his personal relationship with Ms. Hudgens. She is well aware of how marketing oneself and an upcoming movie works.
yes zac totally is the fututr :]
gotta love him.
#121—trina:
You are exactly right and many people ought to start seeing that.
Everyone’s take on Ted Casablanca is also my own.
Thank you For Real. I think most of the sensible Zac fans already knew this.
Good points as always, Naomi.
For Real, you stated that Zac’s appearances are arranged to give “more bang for the buck.” Yet he clearly was not in publicity mode at the Taylor Swift concert, as Elle reported that he hid in the wings of the stage and shook his head when recognized. He’d have been “front and center” if he had wanted to be seen.
But Zac’s being backstage at Taylor’s concert—-which has NEVER been officially confirmed even after all this time and commotion about it—-may have been one of those moments where Zac was just trying to have some down time while on this tour. Vanessa did the same kind of thing last year while she was filming in Austin by going to a Miley concert and even though it was reported she was there by some fans it was never really confirmed. She also was trying to stay out of the limelight at that time since it was not her moment and she was just trying to relax. Also, perhaps Zac was interviewed by someone there that will come out a little later. Many interviews and such do not come out right away.
i don’t understand why people are so quick to look for zac doing something bad. well, yes, i do. the haters are so waiting for him to “f-u-c-k up.” wasn’t that what zac said?
i do get what for real is saying. zac does what his promotional team wants him to do. that is what he’s paying them for. they are trained to market him.
and do you really believe zac’s pr thought he could go to a taylor swift concert and “not be seen” by fans? get real. zac wasn’t “hiding” to be sneaky as so many of you nut cases think. he didn’t want to have it become a “zac” event.
At events like these where one star is invited to another star’s performance, it seems logical that it is arranged by both their people. So, it’s likely that Zac’s PR knew of Taylor being in Sydney and extended the red carpet invitation to her PR person. And, then Taylor’s PR person extended the same courtesy to Zac’s PR person.
I have no clue how all that stuff works, but the fact that Zac has:
an agency
an agent
a manager
a pr person
an assistant
an attorney (and probably other staff) that he’s paying for their services, he certainly must be using them to his advantage. He is not doing this promotion on his own.
And being “back stage” or in the wings at a concert is not hiding. There are press and photographers back there. IF Zac did go to the concert, there will be pics surfacing. Not just fan pics but ones from news agencies. There will be pics of hims posing with Taylor.
wtf? this girl is future no way
# 125 u seriously think dat vanessa hudgen is the next angelina jolie well least angelina jolie could act unlike vanessa
vanessa is just zac arm candy
zac career 2 be goin somewhere and her career is goin nowhere
FOR REAL:
Thanks for coming by. We supporters of Z&V spend many exhausting hours trying to talk sense to the nonsensical
And though we know we are wasting our time with some of these people we refuse to forfeit the boards to them.
Zac and Vanessa deserve to have kind, supportive words printed about them by mature fans so we will continue.
I made a special trip to Barnes and Noble and they didn’t have Interview magazine in yet. Supposed to be on the shelves around March 23rd. I was hoping that someone who subscribes could post the interview.
yes zac efron is the future!!!! i love he!!!! =)
of course. zac efron is the future!! i love he! =)
of course. zac efron is the future!! i love he! =)
of course. zac efron is the future!! i love he! =)
Karen @ #138…There was a fan photo showing Vanessa @ Miley’s concert in Austin, Texas last year. The photo was posted in couple of Vanessa’s fan sites and VABN fan site.
People, People. Please this is the opinion of this magazine. I am sure if you open the magazine and read the article, there are probably more than one actors/actresses names written as part of the future actors/actresses. As part of the movie buffs and viewers, these young actors/actresses such as Zac, Vanessa, Robert P, etc. should all be given chances to show their acting performance and skills to the world first to determined to be judged or not. Right now, it appears directors and producers are offering entertainment roles offers to these young performers, which mark these actors/actresses somewhat going towards that direction of the future entertainers.
Why are some of you going on and on about Robert Pattinson? Frankly, I don’t see anything in the guy - he’s OK looking, he can’t act very well, and he smokes and stumbles out of bars wasted more than not. yeah, a real hero - not. He is nothing special IMHO…
At least Zac has qualities that people can admire….he’s a beautiful person inside and out. He is aware of his image and keeps everything on a positive level - here’s wishing him the best!
peace,
The point is there was no official word that Vanessa was at that concert except for the fan pic. She went for relaxation and to see a friend. She had been working and there was stress from that and she needed a chane of pace—some fun. The very same thing can be said of Zac at Taylor’s concert but most likely it was due to the fact she had come to his premiere and so she extended the invitation for him to come to her concert. It’s not a biggie to figure out or believe.
kgg I agree. this post has nothing to do with him but early posters brought him up trying to make it about him. and you know perez posted this and his readers went nuts cause he said he’d pick zac over rob. I don’t know why they hate zac so much on there but I’m a fan of his and v’s to the end.
oops I meant him and v.
Hey, Zac is the future. His acting will never tank. His fans like me have his back fully. I think hes an amazing actor who will be the next brad pitt but wayyyyy more normal and not marry a weirdo like angie. haha. but zacs career is like a shooting star, we ARE LUCKY TO SEE IT, and it wont ever fade. so enjoy zac! stop hating. hes amazing.
Rob is a stranger to me. I don’t even know him until my emo friend told me bout him. I called him Vampire Boy. Or Smelly Boy.
Of Course he is…who else???? Love him…he´s cute, hot talented..the future!!!
robert is the future not ZAC EFRON i HATE HIME
then why are you reading his post and commenting on his thread sara? get a life. love him.
ROVE Australia Interview - liking the new funny and mature Zac
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KphJ0koVL98
Zac Rove interview
http://zanessamagic.wordpress.com/2009/03/15/zac-on-rove-video/
Great interview! He’s such a funny, regular guy!!
He did great on Rove. Very relaxed and funny.
FOR REAL MAYBE
you are always defending Zac and Vanessa relationship but you’re never clear about what that actually is, you just say she understands well my friends understand stuff but it don’t make us a couple.
you’re very careful to stay clear of about what kind of relationship it is, that’s why the marriage talk was so funny to them, it’s all a fake and they know it. so much for it doesn’t effect their realtionship since they aren’t a couple, who cares.
desiree please get a life
dude, i see desiree’s got her panties in a knot again. over nothing. the girl keeps digging and digging trying to prove zac and vanessa are not a couple. zac has said in several magazine interviews, and one red carpet one, “yes we are a couple.” they are, so find something else to worry about. go find a relationship of your own to worry about. and who cares? you care a lot or you wouldn’t be on her trying to get people to reassure you their relationship is a-ok. go find your own dude, and get him to make you feel secure.
Seriously, somebody is STILL worrying about whether or not Zac and Vanessa are a “real” couple? Hmmmm . . . OK, where is the logic here?
I think that desiree person is over the top insecure about her own life. She desperately wants a man (Zac) in her life and she is not able to make that happen. She keeps hoping that Zac will publicly declare his love for Vanessa (desiree). But would that satisfy the insecure desiree? Absolutely not. Insecure people are never satisfied. She would want more and more and more public declarations (invasions into Zac and Vanessa’s private relationship).
Insecure people need to work on liking/loving themselves before they delve into worrying and agonizing about what’s going on in other people’s relationships.
I was on JJJ for a few minutes trying to deal with Desiree’s post. Waste of my time.
# 169 Just ignore her posts as well as those of the other haters.
Zac handled his interview with ease and confidence of a self assured young man. He is witty and rolls with the punches. And I like he way he shares his shop story by saying “we”…
Tiptoes:
I like the “we” reference and I like how he says it with such ease as if he says it all the time.
he says “we” like everyone knows who hes referring to….too cute hehe
i love it!!! and love them!!!!!!
well when he was in the Ellen D show, Ellen was quicker to pounce on his ‘”we” with “whose is we?” lol…yeah, no need to say anything else as everyone knows who he is referring to.
It was a good interview and he handled it very well like a pro. he was quite witty as well. I like seeing him relaxed and at ease like this.
Yeah, I too like the ‘we’ reference. I really liked that Vanessa wasn’t mentioned specifically as the interview was about him and his movie and the subtle ‘we’ was a great way of acknowledging that he’s not really single but it has nothing to with the interview.
I actually think that if the press (and fans!) kept off his relationship, he would be more inclined to bring it naturally when relevant.
Naomi:
Your right. Your posts are always very thoughtful. My posts need to be and I need to stop letting certain people and their craziness bother me so much.
gracemarie, do you go to other sites like VABN, etc. as you seem new here. anyway, the haters don’t even read our posts, thoughtful and relevant it may be. let us do our thing and see the positive side of our favorite stars.
Naomi, i agree. look at the Japan promo trip - the paps let them be, and they shared their sighseeing pics with us.
Yes, trying to argue with extremely insecure and immature people is like beating a dead horse. You accomplish nothing, and you’re wasting your energy.
Better to just post positive comments about Zac and Vanessa.
From Jesse McCartney about Zac: “He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body.” :)
I lurk on VABN it’s very positive and nice
# 178 we would love to read your comments in VABN so do post.
Malia, i totally agree with you. Looking forward to pics from his Melbourne premiere. I can’t wait too for some stories and pics from our fan girls who are going to this premiere.
hawt!
robert pattinson is fugly!
zac is hott!
zac and vanessa are both good, down to earth, decent people. i don’t get why people always try to dig and dig and analyze and scrutinize, hoping to find something wrong with them and their relationship. i just don’t get it.
i love him…. HE IS SO HOTTT..
.THEY ARE RIGHT HE IS THE FUTURE
I LOVE ZAC EFRON IS SOO SEXYYYYYY
