Zac Efron not getting much love in recent news
Posted on October 9th, 2008 by Hot Momma
He’s a teen idol, but Zac Efron just doesn’t do it for his High School Musical co-star Ashley Tisdale.
“I’ve never been attracted to Zac, and he’s never been attracted to me - which is even more amazing! Ha!” she says in November’s Seventeen.
“He always says I look hot, and I’m like, ‘Aw, thanks Zac,’” Tisdale, 23, adds. “But really, it’s more like siblings than a flirty relationship - he’s seriously like my brother.”
She says often turns to Efron - who is dating co-star Vanessa Hudgens - for advice.
“It’s cool to have someone who’s completely honest with you, who can give you a guy’s opinion,” she says. “And if I have a problem, I know I can call him whenever.”
Zac wasn’t getting any love from a crazed fan yesterday. While with girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens, Zac was leaving the Apollo in Shaftesbury Avenue (in London) when a middle-aged man - thought to be a deranged fan - began shouting and pointing at him. The bespectacled attacker, who was carrying a laptop computer under one arm, was then said to have lunged forward and tried to grab his hair.
An onlooker said: “He just reached over and grabbed the side of Zac’s head. There was no provocation. It all turned into a bit of a mess. He was shouting all kinds of things at Zac. Their security team eventually dealt with it. They had to bundle Zac into a car, but at one point it looked as though the man was going to be pushed into it with him.”
Zac was not hurt, the man was spoken to by security staff at the scene, and the attack was not reported to police. Why not we wonder? Zac and his co-stars were later spotted eating together at the Floridita restaurant in Soho.
Zac also had a rough day on set as he fell and hurt himself while rehearsing for High School Musical 3: Senior Year - after he had to run around a rotating hallway.
The 20-year-old actor who plays a basketball player in the Disney films - had to jump and slide down a revolving school corridor while performing a song and dance number and as he tells it didn’t go smoothly.
He says, “We had always talked about doing a scene in a revolving setting and then one day I walked in and there was a revolving hallway. It was like a square inside a big hamster wheel. I got there and the crew said, ‘OK, let’s go!’ I was like, ‘I haven’t rehearsed yet guys!’
“So Kenny Ortega, the director, told me to rehearse it but also filmed it at the same time. It was crazy! I fell over a few times. At one point it reversed direction and I wasn’t ready - I ate it then!”

Wow– I wonder why they didn’t tell the police about the crazy guy. Sounds like he has no business walking around on the street!
