Zac Efron Covers GQ Magazine

Zac Efron Covers GQ Magazine

Zac Efron does a little dance in this new pic from the upcoming May 2009 issue of GQ magazine .

The 21-year-old actor dished to the mag about his new flick, 17 Again, his future film career and keeping HSM loot in his trunk. Check it:

On keeping a few HSM posters with him at all times: “I’ve kinda got it figured out. I just pull in to the lot at [a movie studio] and they can’t follow me. The first time I did it, they weren’t going to let me in. The guy at the gate was like, ‘What are you gonna do for me?’ I said, ‘What do you want me to do?’He’s like, ‘I got kids.’ And I was like, ‘Well, I got a poster in the trunk!’ It’s smart to keep some swag in the trunk, just in case.”

On what’s in stores for his future: “I’m truly ready right now. I can’t wait, dude. I’m going to do something—something cool. Something people aren’t necessarily expecting.”

On working with 17 Again director Burr Steers: “He messed with my head a little bit. There were scenes where I had to be pissed, so he’d be a total a–hole all morning, to make me a little bit on edge. I had no idea what he was doing until after the movie was over. I just thought he was a huge a–hole. But it turns out he’s incredibly smart. He doesn’t just give you what you want to hear and tell you that you’re doing a great job. It’s a different kind of love and support.”

I read the whole interview. Intresting stuff lol
Lots of cusses too. I know it’s obvious he is a human he can cuss, i just didn’t think he would do it in an interview.
Sounds like him and the interviewer made a day of it, going around L.A getting coffee seeing Britney Spears house, talking about the sex shop incident and what not, lots of stuff i never knew before
He looks insanely hot in the pictures

Katty @ 5:43 pm on 04/13/2009

He swears a lot more than I figured he would, but then again, I swear like that too, and I’m still a teen. The article shows he’s grounded, and he was like what’s the point of getting drunk and hooking up with a famous chick? Ha ha, if only every other guy in Hollywood figured that out. I think it’s smart that they don’t talk about each other, because he wants to be recognized for himself, not his relationship. That’s good.

hannahhhh @ 6:22 pm on 04/13/2009

okaay i read the interview and is it just me or did the interviewer make it sound like he is a bit of an ass ?
or is it really him and he is a bit of an ass ?

cuz he swears loads, and seems to be really sorta harsh on everything hesays, not like how yu have ever seen himact before. it just doesnt seem too be like himm . i dnooo. like he seems a lot more open minded in other interviews and thaa thing bout vanessa n thaa. they deliberatley seem to try n make it sound like he is being horrible bout her or something.
i think they might have put a differnt light on what he is sayin and acting to make it more grown up but it didnt work.

Germangirl @ 6:23 pm on 04/13/2009

@Lyca:

You know I actually get what you mean… Don’t get me wrong I absolutly love Zac, adore him… But I get the feeling that he is trying too hard to leave his old image behind… wich could be a mistake…

I loved the Interview it was very refreshing to read, even witch his cussing and all, it showed us a little bit of a different Zac we do not often see… And I absolutly love how they all point out, that he isn’t talking about Vanessa at all… I think it is the right thing to do…

#47
Lauren @ 6:47 pm on 04/13/2009

so how come he doesn’t talk about vanessa in interviews and such, but yet she talks about him in interviews or whenever shes asked about him - its all abit confusing, and yes, i agree with some of the comments on here about how he didn’t come off as a nice guy and that hes trying to hard to shed off his old school image of being a preppy, teenager who does musicals, i get where hes coming from but i also, think who cares what films hes going to do, whether he does musicals, or crime dramas either way hes 21 and hes actually going to have a long career even if if his films sucked the fans would stick by him just because hes him
i may have wrote that so it sounds like im blaming people who have commented but im not im trying to write as if i was talking to him if you understand that

#55
ak @ 7:15 pm on 04/13/2009

For those of you who are offended by the cursing in the article, grow up! GQ is an adult publication, not a magazine that caters to a young audience like Bop. He’s 21. A lot of adults curse. Even the interviewer uses curse words in the non-quoted parts of the article. Zac was probably told by the interviewer to feel comfortable in talking the way he wants, instead of in the sanitized manner that is required for other media outlets such as television. That doesn’t make him any less of a gentleman or good person. Consider the context of where this article is appearing (an adult men’s magazine) before you make any judgments.

Dina @ 8:13 pm on 04/13/2009

Hey guys,
Zac most definitely looks amazingly hot in these photos love them all!!, he’s definitely a grown man. I read the article as well and I couldn’t believe what I read but its true this is an adult men’s magazine and a lot of the interviews are this way, so you really can’t get offended or mad at zac he’s a guy.

Also at times the interviewer may exaggerate a little when it comes to writing there articles, at times they tend to twist things just a bit to make it sound more interesting to readers, and they make the person who is being interviewed sound like a real ass lol, luv ya zac I just hope ur really not an ******* of a guy

#61
Zanesa4ever @ 8:14 pm on 04/13/2009

I have to admit I am a little dissapointed in this interview and for you ppl that say “grow up” because of the cussing need to get the big picture don’t get me wrong i’m 12 and have cussed many times in my life but even though this is an “adult” magazine he still needs to keep his younger fans in the back of his head because alot of adults that will read this have young kids that are fans of him and i’m sure that they woun’t appriciate it! Now I love Zac and I love Vanessa but I am disappointed in him.

#62
aw @ 8:24 pm on 04/13/2009

LOL big deal, he can swear is he wants. Grow up. Also I can’t believe some people are complaining about him not mentioning her. They like to be as private as they can and with his recent interviews its obvious that when he’s comfortable he’ll reveal little things. This was not the time or place. Good on him.

And he was gracious enough in the interview. What he said about hsm pretty much shows he knows how it important it was and that’s that.

#63
Karen @ 8:30 pm on 04/13/2009

hannahhh, Justine, and ak:

You all have a point. ak, it is an adult male magazine but I have read their articles before and they are always trying to make everything sound smart-assed. They always try to put an “edge” on things—another one of those things you see in publications to get something started. I don’t for a minute believe that a swear word never crosses this boy’s lips—not living in Hollywood and working with the people he does all the time. Nor do I believe the boy never got drunk before the age of 21 so don’t tell me I am naive. He even inferred the same thing in his Rolling Stone interview about doing things anybody else his age would be doing but he did it behind closed doors with friends. However, there are just things I read in this interview that sounds very much like what I have read in other interviews with other celebrities in this magazine over the years. It definitely has a certain “slant” to it.

Just like making it sound like he is hunting for some girl on the street. Most men and WOMEN check out other men. What do you think women do when they watch movies with the current hunk and swoon all over the guy? That is checking them out. But it doesn’t mean you are going to leave the one you love for something like that. If there is a good looking guy that starts in your office tomorrow, do you think the women there aren’t going to notice? Well, believe me, men have been doing that kind of thing a lot longer than women have. It doesn’t mean they are on the hunt.

Not getting married until 40 if ever but then says, well, maybe 30. Isn’t that a little ambiguous? Why make it seem like you are not the least bit interested in marriage if you then drop the age 10 years or why even give an age? It is so obviously more like “IF I was going to get married TOMORROW YOU GUYS certainly would be the LAST people I would tell”. Why wouldn’t he make it sound like “I’m not ready for anything like that for a VERY LONG TIME”. It’s to get you people from making predictions and getting into his private business. Maybe he thinks if he makes it sound far off those people will quit making statements that they are getting married every other week and quit asking them if or when they are getting married.

Just like when Vanessa said she didn’t even like kids last year. Well, heck, they had the girl pregnant every other week. I believe she said that in hopes that people would stop that madness thinking “well, she doesn’t like kids and she said it so it isn’t very likely she is going to get pregnant”. However, these people who print this stuff most of the time are not interested in printing the true facts. They want to sell their magazine so they make it more scandalous and sensational.
THAT is why we see a whole different Zac Efron on talk shows. There are some things you can’t hide. AND in this article they didn’t even venture forth to claim he is embarrassed about doing HSM.

Basically it is an adult male magazine and some believe you have to cuss to be an adult…too bad. Sometimes it only makes you see mindless like you do not have enough brain power to come up with an intelligent word. It is the magazine that is trying too hard to come across as something “edgy” and adult.

Karen @ 9:16 pm on 04/13/2009

In my last comment—and I’m sure you all know this already—I meant that women check out other guys just the same way mean have ALWAYS checked out other women. Also, if Zac really meant that he may never want to get married then why put an age to it? It made it sound like he was getting a little put out with these people trying to horn in on his private life and get him to talk about Vanessa. As ak said, WHEN he FEELS comfortable talking about her he does. Maybe he knows this was not one of those moments. Maybe he knew they would print it and twist what he says. They even made a comment that sounded like they thought he was trying to cover himself and not have stuff written about him that wasn’t true. Well, with some type people out there that is what a person has to do who take their reputation seriously.

#69
pop86 @ 9:35 pm on 04/13/2009

@Karen:

In reference to GQ(or any magazine) having a slant, this interview reminds me of the Justin Timberlake interview GQ did awhile ago Justin came off like an a-hole too in an attempt to appear “edgy”.
I think it just the way theGQ magazine tries to remain relevant to young man.

#70
aw @ 9:47 pm on 04/13/2009

@ak:

Hadn’t seen this before I commented but yes agreed.

#71
ak @ 10:06 pm on 04/13/2009

As Zac said in the Today Show interview this morning, he’s 21 and growing up. It’s a fact of life. He can’t always think of the tween/young audience in doing interviews for adult-oriented publications or in the projects he chooses to work on if he wants to last long in the entertainment industry. That doesn’t mean he’s ungrateful for the success that HSM gave him. If you truly want him to be successful in this cut-throat business, you have to be willing to see him as someone who is growing up.

Plus, he has to seem edgy for a magazine like GQ. Otherwise, the magazine wouldn’t even think of putting him on the cover. GQ doesn’t do squeeky clean.

Naomi @ 11:08 pm on 04/13/2009

Reposting from JJ:

Reading this interview I wanted to hug him and slap him at the same time. He’s trying way too hard to appeal to men and sound the way he thinks they want him to sound. I felt the same way with the USA weekend interview when the interviewer had to point out that Zac blurted out ‘what do you want me to say, I’m trying to figure out what you want me to say.’

I thought the interviewer was spot on when he suggested that Zac was leaving the Disney bubble only to create a self-made bubble where he refuses to be himself but keeps trying to figure out what people want him to say and be. He then proceeds to work hard at incarnating those but people always see through those as his image is never consistent from interview to interview depending on the target audience.

He is such a hard worker but as the interviewer rightly pointed out, some things are not achieved by sheer hardwork, sometimes you’ve got to relax and let your personality through.

My exasperation with him gets tempered though when I remember that he’s always had to work hard for everything and this is the only way he knows to approach the things that are important to him. I think this GQ interview is very important to him as he wants to snag the male demographic and that’s why he’s trying so hard.

I find it a bit sad because he hinted that he’s not getting the kind of roles he wants but I doubt swearing like a teenager will make a producer cast him say, in a western movie or make adult men take him seriously. I don’t mind swearing at all but this is not believable.

Hopefully, he’ll read this interview and note the observations made by the interviewer. I bet he can sound so much more grown up without appearing as if he’s trying too hard if he just relaxes and lets his real personality through rather than all these images he’s channeling which are frankly not appealing.

When people meet him and work with him, they speak so well of him, I just don’t get why he thinks these fake personalities will do more to further his career than his real self.

I think this is a critical period for him and he’s clearly confused about how to present himself and desperate to make it work. I’m not really sure his pr is guiding him in the right way. Maybe he needs some quality time with his parents.

#78
Naomi @ 11:10 pm on 04/13/2009

Another repost:

I’ve also got to say that the interview was a bit too detailed and didn’t cut Zac any slack.

For instance, the interviewer made sure to tell us that Zac knew they were watching him check out the yoga lady, making it obvious that he feels Zac was doing that just to prove a point, (that he wasn’t gay maybe, that he notices women ) and he wanted us to know that.

The whole interview was sprinkled with that sense of ‘this guy is trying to present a certain image and we want the readers to know that.’

I don’t think Zac knew it was going to be presented that way and it’s a bit unfair to him. It just heightens the feeling that he’s trying too hard.

#79
ak @ 11:29 pm on 04/13/2009

I don’t get why Zac is being attacked over this article. Many celebrities reinvent themselves for interviews depending on the publication. Jennifer Aniston is usually seen as the girl-next-door, yet she posed nude for GQ a few months ago. Does that make her a bad person?

Just because Zac is trying to be edgier for select publications like GQ and Interview magazines does not make him a lost soul who is having trouble figuring out where he fits in. These interviews show he is savvy enough to cater to the audiences that these particular publications appeal to. That’s called marketing oneself, which is needed in the cut-throat entertainment business.

Zac is an adult and doesn’t need to go back to mom and dad to regroup. He’s doing just fine and seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Besides, actions speak louder than words: He’s been in a committed relationship for nearly four years with the same person and has not been in any trouble with the law. Can’t say the same for some of Zac’s peers in the industry.

……………………….
Sorry, I doubt anyone who read the WHOLE interview including the way the interviewer described Zac , will call Zac edgy or savvy (please check the dictionary meaning of the words).

He was presented as a young man trying hard to be and say what he thinks he needs to be and say. It wasn’t hinted at in the interview, it was spelt out categorically. You might want to go back and read the whole interview.

On what’s in stores for his future: “I’m truly ready right now. I can’t wait, dude. I’m going to do something—something cool. Something people aren’t necessarily expecting.”

I wounder what that means.

Awwww just saw zac on the david letterman show, he looked so gorgeous on the show and was actually really nervous to be there too, you can so tell when he was talking to david it was so cute and funny lol I think he’s very overwelmed with all of his success and is happy about it at all at the same time. everyone needs to give him a break about the whole GQ interview he’s still young and new to the business and I think he has a great career ahead of him, as long as he stays on the right track like he says he will, he will be an even greater actor ;-)

@Naomi:

I don’t really see the harm in that. He’s finding himself, I don’t know why he should be belittled for that. The interviewer analyzed him extensively but not really negatively. He’s at a pivotal point right now, being calculated the way he is and was pointed out by the interviewer seems essential. Each to their own I guess. And I suppose for some people he will forever be trying “too hard” regardless of what he does.

@Dina:

Yeah he was good in the interview even though I think Letterman is one of the worst talk show hosts. Having looked beyond just this site, with Zac’s recent interviews and the SNL appearance a lot of people seem to be catching on to him. I agree he has good things ahead of him.

Zac is grown up I am so gold he is moving away from playing Teenage roles. I can’t wait for 17 again I am going to go see this Friday.

That’s fair enough. We’re all different and will see things differently. Some of his target audience will see with you, others with me.

I don’t think my comment belittled him for ‘finding himself’. I pretty much thought he was lost in the interview and that he was presented in a very unappealing, defensive and immature manner.

I compare this to the Interview mag interview where he came across as articulate, intelligent and interesting. He was also attempting to reach a mature male audience with that and he was also finding himself.

Let’s agree to disagree. For his sake, I hope most adults agree with you.

@Naomi:

I never said you were the one belittling him. I agree with you on a lot of your points regarding the whole thing. I do disagree about how you think he was presented overall and I don’t think this was too different than any other GQ spread. You’re right though, we’ll all have to agree to disagree. JJ seems to have been filled with negativity but beyond this place, there were a lot of positive reactions. This was geared towards adult males and I can’t say I know how it came across to them but if this didn’t do it, he did win over a lot of people in that demographic through SNL at least.

#91,
…………………….
I’ll agree with you there. I thought SNL was really great and hopefully has done more to show his talent and potential as a bonafide actor.

@Karen:

I’m going to have to disagree here. She didn’t say she didn’t like kids. If it’s the article I’m thinking of they got most everything wrong. I have read where she said she wasn’t ready for them.

If she didn’t like kids she wouldn’t be involved in children charities and I don’t know anyone in the public arena who would say something like that even if it was true.

i agree with katty. if you look at the article in JJ, he says fuuck a lot in this. and they aren’t really necessary.
oh, and before someone started attacking me and saying “OMFG, HE’S AN ADULT!! LET HIM SWEAR, U BIITCH!!!1″
that’s just my opinian. even i swear myself, but he said it almost 15 times… and that’s not even a full article.

but anywhoooo,
OMFG THESE SHOTS WERE FHSBSFUWQPSADNH HOTTTT!!
not really liking the cover pic, but the shot of him in the blue shirt is… *drools*

@Naomi:

i totally agree with everything you said. you couldn’t have said it better. zac’s awesome though, he’s going through the things that any young adult goes through. he’s got a great future.

In my opinion this article shows Zac is growing up. As people like Karen & Naoimi have already mentioned. GQ is an ADULT magazine,therefore will be written in a way that appeals to the intended target market which is ADULTS. I understand why some of his younger fans may be a little upset over his cussing but what you have to understand is,zac is now trying to break in to older more serious roles. He is not trying to alienate younger fans, he is growing up. I would hazard a guess that all the interviews that are coming out recently for the promotion of 17 Again are more “Zac” then any of the HSM interviews ever were.

I think its admirable he is growing up, I don’t think it will be the easiest transition to go from being seen as a disney actor after appearing in 3 HSM Movies, to becoming known as a serious actor, he has his work cut out. But I think he is already going the right way with 17 Again,Me & Orson Welles,and now The Death & Life of Charlie St Cloud .

I have the feeling Zac will be around for many years to come, if he continues the way he is going.

@Naomi: Great comments, Naomi. I agree with you. The only thing is that we’ve all read interviews with big stars and they didn’t feel the need to say f…all the time. So I would say to Zac that he should lay off it when talking to anyone in the print media. Secondly, I think he is trying to find a strategy to have a long career when, in fact, his personality and talent will determine if he has a long career. Don’t over think it, Zac. Have confidence in the fact that people like you, that you have the talent and that maybe being edgy isn’t the way to go (is Tom Hanks edgy?). I’m thinking of Brad Pitt who decided to go edgy and made several horrendous films filled with violence and it diminished him (Fight Club, Seven etc).

Anyway, the whole GQ thing didn’t ring true so I’m assuming that the writer put his own spin on things. Love you Zac.

I personally got married at age 27 and don’t regret it I was with my boyfriend for 3 years before we got married and this year we have been married for 20 years and actually been together for 24 years in total and we started going out on the same date as my mom and dad’s wedding anniversary the 4th April.

And as I have said before I think the late 20’s is a good time to consider taking that big step if it’s both partys want I always wanted kids but I’m glad that I had mine at the ages that I did and not any younger it’s a big step even my daughter who is 19 this year and has friends who have had kids from the age of 16 has said herself that yea she wants kids but not for ages yet as she can just about look after herself let alone a baby so she wants to wait until she has a secure job and a place of her own then kids might be a option but not until then so I say great thinking why rush into something as important and life changing as marriage and having kids are at a young age if you know yourself that your not ready and your gonna do it just to please other people that’s not how it should be. So I think that both Zac and Vaness have the right idea about it they had a teenage romance and now there into a adult one personally they will change it’s part of growing up and their outlooks will change but I’ve a feeling one thing that won’t change is their bond, love and commitment to each other I may be wrong as I don’t know them personally but it’s just the feeling I get but only time will tell but they have each other and have a understanding of each other that only they know and that’s what will help with the changes they are bth facing and will contiune to face as they grow up.

Since a lot of people seem to be hung up on the curssing I half expected Zac to be dropping so many F-bombs that a sailor would blush. I didn’t think it was that excessive. But at the same time it wasn’t really necessary either. If it was an attempt to make him sound “more grown-up and edgy” then it failed. Excessive cussing doesn’t make anybody sound “grown-up and edgy” it just makes them sound course and uneducated. Zac is 21-years-old and he’s more then old enough to know that, I figured that out when I was six years old. Now maybe that’s just the way Zac actually talks and if that’s the case, then I will have to give him points for at least keeping it real.

laura @ 7:45 pm on 04/14/2009

OMFG!!!! I think I just came. How can one human being be so freakin’ hot? I love the whiskers. I want him to rub them all over me.

I-like-red @ 7:50 am on 04/15/2009

when it comes to marrige for zac (with vanessa), I think hes just scared. com’on 40? or never? Hes going to change his mind when he gets older (perhaps 30, 35?). and I’m sure vanessa feels the same. its too early for marrige, but theyr still together. Im sure with souch strong love as zanessa has it will last til the day zac proposes to vanessa.
