Zac Efron was cute in High School Musical, but he’s now turned into a fine young 25-year-old man, who look hotter every time we see him. He’s had a great photoshoot for Flaunt magazine, and you can see the evidence here (courtesy of SocialiteLife).
He’s also got a few interesting things to say in the accompanying interview, including defending High School Musical against those who want him to say it’s crap. He says, “But here’s the one thing about High School Musical, that a lot of people forget or don’t realize. It affected a lot of people, its resonance, culturally, was massive … and at the same time, it was in every sense of it, the luckiest break in the world. The wrong thing to do—and that’s what all these interviews now are trying to get me to say— is to turn on it, to like sh– on it, call it crap. But that’s insane. There are hundreds of people who began doing one thing when they were younger, who go on to develop and refine and shape their vision, as they get older, and other concerns—like fame, or money, take a back seat to other ones.”
He also talks about the difficulty of making good movie, “It’s really tough. I feel like I’m in the trenches with them. It’s really hard because I respect these people so much. And they are some of the smartest people I’ve ever met. And they struggle more than I can even comprehend with the problem at hand—the dichotomy—the challenge of making good movies and making movies that people want to watch. And right now, being me, I personally know which ones I want to be in. I feel like the other way. S–t, I feel like I can be effective in one.”
