Zac Efron Shops Big — Costco Big
Zac Efron poses with a cute young fan as he shops at the Costco wholesale store in Los Angeles on Saturday (January 3).
The 21-year-old actor, who continued to rock out his Diesel “Thanaz 8LP” jeans and CPO Jacket, is said to return for the Hairspray sequel. His costar Nikki Blonsky said earlier this week, “Zac has said he’d love to do it again, and I know Brittany Snow is down for sure. I don’t know about Amanda [Bynes]. I hope she will. I want to put on my Tracy Turnblad wig again and dance my little heart out.”

cutest thing in the world <3
#87 Once Again how the hell do you Know Zac and Nikki still Talk.
you don’t know Zac or Nikki. you did not live with them. so How do you Know Zac and Nikki talk
# 92 I agree with you.
COSTCO!!!!!! I love going to costco even on Sample days! How sweet of Zac to take a pic with a fan of his. I hope he didn’t get mobbed at costco though.
God the people on this site have such a Nikki phobia it’s incredible! I loved him in HS and hope to see him reprieve his role as Link in HS2 which he DID say he’s up for.
I’m sure Zac and the rest of cast are really thinking of John Travolta and his family theses days with support and deep condolences.
Zac and Nikki had a great time doing HS and hope to see them together again. He’s a big boy and she is just a friend so chill and let them make another super movie for us to watch and enjoy.
I met her at one of her shows in NY and she is a sweet and talented girl who deserves better then to be blasted by insecure little tweens on this post.
WOWW..he looks soo damnnn…HOTTTTT!!!
Mhmm..i LOVE his hair like that, it looks like he’s had it trimmed a bit, but it is hott!!
Aww that girl is a lil cutie..hehe.
Zac shouldn’t do H2..like 1 person said Nikki is speaking for everyone, John Travolta probs wont do it (R.I.P JET) and the story line is really really really bad!
Zanessa 4 eva :):D
he looks a little distant…
umm, following #3’s comment… earth to zac? ;D
aaah i hate hate HATE nikki, bleurghhhhhhh.
#108 I agree with
Any real fan of Zac would not want him to do HS 2 regardless of who he is starring with.
Even if they change the entire cast and bring in Oscar winners, it’s still a bad career choice for him and would take him back a step when his mates are surging on.
I can already imagine the media labelling him a one trick pony. He has competition from Rob from Twilight, Emile Hirsch, Shia, Lucas Grabeel, etc . they are his contemporaries and are swiftly making their mark in an intensely competitive industry.
Any real fan of Zac who believes in his potential would hate to see him loose out just by making a poor career choice. Box-office success does not equal respect or career success in hollywood. I, personally, would hate to see how the critics would banish his career if he ever does HS2.
I would still feel the same way, and protest really loudly, if I heard he was considering doing HSM 4 with Vanessa and the rest of the wildcats, so it has nothing to do with who his castmates are. The critics would still slay them and I would hate that.
I am a fan of both Zac and Van but I don’t want them to star in a movie together in the near future because it would not be good for either of their careers. They need to branch out and prove themselves individually.
It’s about really caring for Zac and his career rather than pushing my own silly agenda. That’s what real fans do.
Contrary to what people think, as far as I’m concerned, their relationship is more than strong enough to handle anything. I don’t even need the evidence Karen #100 has clearly pointed out to know that NONE of his co-stars pose any credible threat to his personal life. They are not part of it.
Any sensible person who follows Zac news can easily tell who his close friends are. Even the tabloids can tell. Right from when he was taken ill, to pics at events, to his birthday and candid pics. We all know what’s what and it would be stupid to engage in debates about non-issues.
Like Karen, I choose to give the Zac the benefit of the doubt. He’s a smart and intelligent guy who is able to make good logical decisions so I believe he’ll insist on reading the script first. Even with that, he must know that another musical is not a good move since he’s committed to Footloose.
I know he has his family, management and real friends who care about his career and will advise him sensibly to stay clear of musicals for a while.
Until I hear him officially confirm it, I’ll take what every other person says like the nonsense it is.
no to hs2.
i love zanessa
i love you zac.
I wasn’t going to say anything about this “zikki” thing but I can’t help it any longer.
I think the adults know what this is all about and why there’s such an obsession over this issue.
This has nothing to do with Zac or Vanessa or Nikki. It’s the concept of seeing a good looking guy with someone who has obvious imperfections. To know an attractive person can look past a persons physical apperance and love them for who they are on the inside. It’s almost like “Zikki” fans depend on Zac to hook up with Nikki to fulfil their own personal insecurities. You want to be able to look at them and say, if he can look past all that and he’s so good-looking, then other guys will began to realize physical beauty isn’t everything; if Zac and Nikki found happiness, then anythings possible for me too. Which it absolutely is but you can’t relay on these stars to make it seem possible for yourself. You need to have more faith and confidence then that.
This isn’t only about seeing an obese person with a fit person, it’s again, about an attractive person excepting somebody for who they are and not being with a picture perfect women/man that society thinks they should be with. I think that is also one of the reasons why a lot of people dislike Vanessa because they don’t want to believe their idol, Zac, would follow stereotypical hollywood standards and be with somebody who is physically beautiful. And “zashley” fans simply don’t like her because they want to see Zac with Ashley together(hence the name “zashley”).
Of course Zac has said nice things about Nikki and has complimented her for being beautiful inside and out which I am pretty sure he meant every word of. But, Zac and any other person male or female who is genuinely nice would say the exact same things and mean them. Not everybody out there enjoys hurting peoples feelings. You can compliment somebody without it having some sort of romantic meaning. If every compliment was meant to be romantic, then a lot of people would be in big trouble right now.
Fact is, Zac does pay attention to physical apperances when it comes to himself and the person he’s attracted to. Just because he’s nice it doesn’t mean he isn’t a typical guy with needs and prefrences. This is a guy who felt insecure about a gap that he had in between his teeth and got it fixed right away. He colors and highlights his hair and enjoys going shopping. He works out like crazy and is very involved with sports such as surfing. He tells Ashley and Vanessa to watch their carbs when they eat. That doesn’t make him arrogent or shallow, it’s just makes him who he is. He doesn’t have to change to make people happy, that wouldn’t be real or fair to him. You can be nice to other people and yet have your own desires.
Anyways, it really is too bad some people are so busy criticizing little things and missing out on something more beautiful. Like two young people sincerely inlove. Just be happy for him and hope you can find what he has with somebody who’ll love you the same way.
Awesome!

to 113,
just to add my story to it… ( hehe )
I was just a big fan of Ashley and not Vanessa.
Seeing all those immature V’s fan ( even in Ashley’s fansite ) bashing Ashley made me angry (lol) and even more hate her. They often bringing up how she is ugly etc ( i believe that was because nothing else negative can be said about her at that time ), and when the nose job thing happened, the haters like rejoice and found their strength. (lol)
But then, I have one holiday and decided to go online ( message boards and spend time defending people ) and found that the HATE comes from both ends… ( APPARENTLY… i was naive I guess )
i am a big fan of ZASHLEY and never cared about Vanessa simply because I don’t know they are even dating and I just know that Zashley is cute.
Well, long story short, when I found out Zanessa is real, I can’t be more happy for them. But those immature fans showed up again and brush the truth in our face like it’s the end of the world for us, zashley fans. ( meaning that we can’t even make videos and saying they’re cute anymore, etc )….
Luckily, at that time, I already know the simple fact that nobody’s going to win in INTERNET FEUD anyway so I just shut up and do my thing to defend my girl as I can.
Now, I love both my girls, Ashnessa, even more than zashley or zanessa crap… hehehehe….
I just hope people stop this feud.
Now that Ashley has blatantly said that she’s not attracted to Zac in that way, and people still bash her trying to steal Zac. ( what the heck ?) I know that NIKKI must get the worst of hate from those “zanessa” fans who “fear” every single time Zac linked to someone…
Well, I just wish both happiness, and Zac too…
Wow, I am rambling..
oh baby thats super sexxyyy!!!
Farrah #113
————————
Well said. I couldn’t have said it better. Of course, any observant person realizes exactly what this is all about like you’ve excellently analyzed.
That’s why there’s no rhyme or logic to their reasoning, it’s very personal to them as it embodies the hope of finding someone like Zac.
That’s why you don’t see this kind of obsession from, say, Brittany Snow’s fans (who had more kissing scenes with Zac in the movie, and still hangs out with him even on V’s birthday).
And that’s why I’m not going to feed that obsession by reacting or responding to them and I hope other ZV fans would ignore them and focus simply on ZV and the joy we derive from observing them.
Life is too short to waste on unpleasant things.
Karen and Naomi you guys are so right. Couldn’t have said it better!!
Farrah- I think you’re 100% right about this. I’ve always thought that was the reason “Zikki” fans just could never let go of the idea that Zac/Nikki were/are secretly in love with each other. It’s just such a nice idea that someone that looks/acts like Zac could be in love/have feelings for a person that is so not the norm. And, again like you said, they are so bothered that Zac dates somene that fits into the stereotypes of what is pretty and what is acceptable. I just wish that they could be happy that Zac is so obviously happy.
aww he shops at costco AND he’s so nice to little kids.
You know what Ashfan, it is good to hear you have come around to love Vanessa though. I am not a shipper. As much as I love Zac and Vanessa together, I follow them both as individuals even more. I love to hear stories of people who have come around especially after not liking one of them.
Let me encourage you to not base your opinion of Van on her fans. She is a great girl, and from everything we hear and see (especially from Ashley) she is the real deal. Don’t allow your opinion of her to ever be swayed by what immature fans may think. They all have immature fans.
yups I agree..
I also hate those ” zashley” fans who hate Vanessa just because she’s with Zac..
anyway…it’s so sad that us, fans, can’t get along. But then again, if things are perfect, there will be no war in the world right now….
Can’t wait to see the Japan premieres..
I agree with you, Farrah, but as Naomi said I think all of us adult fans have known those things all along and many of us have said those things in various ways over the past year of more. But as Farrah has said there are many of us who are basically nice and do not wish to hurt people’s feeling—and it doesn’t matter that we are on the web where nobody will know if we are crude or not.
However, another thing that people seem to forget or just not consider is the fact that Zac was already smitten with Vanessa BEFORE he ever met up with Nikki. He even admits he noticed her at the premiere of Thunderbirds and even tried to introduce himself to her at that time. It was apparent how he felt about her from the backstage videos while they made HSM1. Then they went off to do other projects—him to Toronto to do HS and she went off to do the HSM concert. But it has been reported numerous times how they burnt up the phonelines and saw each other whenever they could. Now, they supposedly agreed they should date other people if they wanted since they would be away from each other for a while but that never seemed to happen. And as soon as Zac was done filming HS he quickly went back home to Vanessa and even moved to LA and got an apartment only a couple blocks from her. He took her to the HS premiere in LA where it was reported they sat holding hands and she went to Australia with him for the premiere there. It is more than clear where his heart was ALL ALONG when he was in Toronto filming HS.
Those rumors of him and Nikki were started by gossip magazines and/or PR people from the movie anyway as they didn’t care if he had a girlfriend already. It is like on the set of Ocean’s 13 the PR people there tried to start a rumor that George Clooney was having a thing going on with Ellen Barkin. It was to drum up interest in the movie. Maybe it was just clear to people who are old as me but after the movie came out someone asked Barkin about this and in her usual way she was blunt and honest and said the same as I knew alll along—it was done for publicity purposes, although she said she was quite flattered! LOL
He’s so hot I love you Zac so much!
can’t wait for 17again….
