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.”

OOKK i know GQ! they lie about what people say, i know for suree!!!! ZAC EFRON doesnt cuss like that especially in front of a interviewer, u need to be polite i know 100% zac did not cuss like that!!! now that is a lie!!! and im MAD!!!
zac is a nice person so dont bealive all the crap in that interview!!!!!
I SUPPORT ZAC! i LOVE zac!!<3
damn hot!
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.
Hoooooootttttttttttttttt, you are the best efron.
I hate his hair like that! It looks like wannabe Robert Pattinson. And I didnt like Rob’s hair like that either.
Whatever, theyre both still hot!
he is HOTT!
i just have to say, that’s so hot baby .
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
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.
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.
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.
Zaaaaaaaac you are boy of my dreams and I love you so much and you are very very very HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT ! You are my life(L)
in the picture where he is in the car he looks like james dean
Zac, you are very hot, and oyu are my life !
ohhhhhhhhh yesss :]
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.
@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.
@ak:
Hadn’t seen this before I commented but yes agreed.
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.
WOW!!!! I THINK I JUST DIED!!!! that is sssooo SEXXYY AND HOTTT :D!!! wowowowow!!! SHIRTLESS!!!!
oh and the interviewers people over exaderate soo dont bealive all the cussing zac efron said, cause i know for sure he didnt, cause it is an interview why would h say that wen he know people are gonna read this!!!!!!!!

ak,
So cussing through the entire interview makes you edgy?
