Alright, alot of you are probably going to laugh but I SWEAR ON MY LIFE, MAY LIGHTNING STRIKE ME, ETC..I am NOT lying to you about this.


It has changed how I see Zac Efron forever..
a couple of days ago Zac Efron was at the gas station, as so was I with my dad, uncle, cousin, and little neice.
This was in L.A.
(I didn't post this earlier 'cuz I did not want people saying "LIAR!!!" but I HAVE to share this message.)
I saw some young adult driving a beat up car and getting out of it pumping gas and I thought "Whoah! That looks so much like.." and out of the blue cameras came out screaming "Zac! Zac Efron! HEY KID OVER HERE!!" my neice got really scared and started to cry, my cousin got so excited because she was going to meet her "future husband", and I was just shocked to see him. Now my uncle isn't really hip with celebs so he was all clueless saying "Who is ZAC EFRON? Why are they snooping into that boy's bussiness like that?" my cousin said "Dad! That's Troy from HSM!!"
NOTE: We were in the little liquor store at the station..the owner yelled "Quick! Kid! Get in here!!" and I saw Zac shaking (my stupid obnoxious cousin kept squeeling which I think the poor guy was annoyed with and THE LAST thing he needed..) a bunch of people kept saying "Zac? Is Zanessa over? Where is Vanessa? Is there going to be a Hairspray 2??" he started shaking and just saying "What the heck were you thinking Zac?" he looked so pale..and I even think I saw him cry..then the owner of the gas station just said "Son I dunno who you are..but I'm guessing you are famous? You must get out there and just say "Yeah! It's me! So what?" and live with it...just be proud of who you are." (He was Indian so he had an accent and stuff) then Zac said "Thank you so much!" and right there I changed how I saw Zac..
To see him get so emotional like that made me realize "Wow..he's human too of course..he cries, he laughs, he yells, he feels.." it made me cry to see him so just..not the Zac everyone thinks he is...I'm not gonna say "ZOMG HE'S HOT I LOVE ZAC!!!!" but I learned a very valueable lesson..that what you see is not always what you get and no matter about who says anything about anyone..we are all still human.

I think it's that constant craziness that got him so upset.

I'd go mad too..and not only just paparrazzi but my weirdo cousin (lol I still love her) kept saying "OMG!! I'm getting pics of Zac crying!!" and kept snapping pics on her sidekick 3 and now has them on her personal website.
While others did the same and outside paparrazzi are banging on the doors flashing their stupid cameras at the poor guy.:(
Now I know it's their job but sheesh take a break!!
But, he just needs to keep strong:)
I'm gonna pray for him.:)

I believe you...I wouldn't make something like that up. I mean come on, everyone goes to the Gas Station, and its in LA. It's not uncommon. I bet he was driving the beat up car to stay undercover. Gosh I would go nuts! I feel sorry for him.

I totally believe her! If you live out in LA, you see celebrities all of the time.

I saw one of the Backstreet Boys getting gas once, but that was in Orlando. LOL

We were eating in a restaurant once, and they had to take Jessica Simpson and her friend out of the back door, there were so many Photographers in the front of there, that it was blocking traffic.

It is not uncommon to see stars in the Grocery Store or Target. They shop and eat like everybody else.

Poor Zac! I can picture him doing that. It does make you think about him as a person, not just a high school singer like in HSM1 and 2.

I remember seeing Stella Hudgens at the Virgin Music store on Hollywood Blvd. and she told one girl who worked there "Um excuse me miss? Where is the hip hop section? I wanna buy something cool for sister's birthday." (So cute!)
I didn't know who she was at the time until she came skipping to her mom saying "Mom! I found the perfect gift for Nessy!"
Then I thought "Oh she's Stella Hudgens!"
I don't know why people think she is so snobby she's only a baby compared to everyone out there in showbiz..oh and Celebs are supposed to have some ego;) Their manager tells them to.

I don't think she took pics. Her sister did, but who knows if her sister will give her them.

Actually it was my cousin and why would I post pics of him crying?? That's just cruel.:( I know I've said cruel stuff about him in the past but I was wrong and you know Basketball sometimes you gotta see stuff to believe it now if anyone is going to be sarcastic or say "I don't believe you" I don't care. As long as I learned something and helped others learn I'm happy. After that guy told Zac to be strong Zac just smiled when they took pics and no I'm not in love with him he's way too old for me but I still had some love for him because no paparrazzi don't follow me but I do know how it is to be bashed, laughed at, and just be looked down on and having everyone expect you to be perfect..and for just Zac to get out there and say "Yeah take a look at me people! I'M ZAC! THE HOTIE! The HSM dude, whatever take pics!" Just made me wanna cry knowing that it is true in this world whether you believe in evelution or God (I'm Christian so God created the world to me.)
We are still all in this together brothers and sisters. :)
I'm just so happy to learn that share that with others. :)

Uhm ok......a little dramatic but ok. @_@.....



Anyways..yeah I know some people don't realize that. But that's what I'm saying..it's not shocking that he feels something. He was some regular kid before he became all this. People still won't believe you, because they have to figure it out on THEIR own like you found it on YOUR own.

So everyone is gonna think im nuts, but i was at Universal Studios/ Island Of Adventure at Orlando Florida, and we had just gotten off the Hulk, and my mom said to me and my sister, ' Hey is that Zac Efron? ' and he turned around and smiled. He has a very white smile and crystal blue eyes. I think i almost fainted. :)

I 100% Believe you. I dont know why people would lie about this, unless they are new to this site. That's a great story. I was just watching HSM yesterday. Now my feelings have changed..

Thanks for sharing that experience with us. I agree that you shouldn't worry if a few people don't believe you, and I'm glad you learned something (and maybe some of us did too).

No one is perfect.

hmm i dont feel bad for zac at all.
he seems so stuck up and not himself.
rumors from disney had that he was to much "drama" on the set.
i wouldn't doubt it.. he knows people like him and he knows hes famous.
its kind of annoying actually.
