What’s the verdict on Zac Efron? I still don’t know. I’ve included him on one of our Hot Guy Friday posts, and many of you seem to like him, in a cougar-to-jailbait kind of way. I’m not calling you people old, I’m just saying that Zac Efron’s youthful prettiness and studied insouciance seem to bring out the cougar in all of us, even the young(er) girls. From what I’ve read about him, he seems like a really sweet kid too, very generous to fans, very professional and very ambitious. There are totally worse adjectives to use when describing a member of Young Hollywood (like brat, moron, entitled, a–hole, etc), so all in all I have high hopes for Zac.
Zac’s big star vehicle this year is the lead in Charlie St. Cloud. I have to admit, I always watch the trailer when it comes on TV. It seems like the film could veer towards cheesy and melodramatic, but it also seems like the film will succeed or fail on Zac’s performance, which by all accounts is solid. Anyway, Universal sent us this making-of video for Charlie St. Cloud, and it’s pretty interesting. Zac… shirtless. He’s got a really nice chest. Mm… cougar time:
And here’s the full trailer for Charlie St. Cloud:
Not only does he have a nice chest, he has absolutely gorgeous eyes too! Paul Newman blue. Lovely. He needs to fix that damn hair though.

I think this kid will only get better and better looking.
I think he will be a great actor too..and I like his clothing style. Yikes, I’m a cougar.
His girlfriend on the other hand, yuk!

Dear God YES! I am 36 and I love this boy!

I think that this guy is going to have a great career. This vehicle past HSM seems smart, he fans are a little older and can handle the material and parents won’t be scared or nauseous when watching it. As long as he picks projects that will grow with his fan base he will be alright and pick up a few more along the way. When you read about him it shows he is a good guy, so that will go along way as well. I am actually looking forward to seeing this movie, and I am 30.

leave the sloppy hair alone! haha, some of us like the sloppy, crazy hair!
to each his own…
tho, it reminds me of when my grandmother complains about things she deems terrible, like men’s sloppy hair cuts… my abuelita: “why do they want to look like hippies?? ay dios mio!”
haha

Hmmmm I don’t know what it is about this boy but I’d totally hit it too!! I’m 6 years older, married and a mom. Does that make me a Kitten Cougar?
I normally hate a pretty boy but I think I have Leo hopes for him. I was never a fan of Leo’s looks but as he’s gotten older his acting and personality have me smitten. I think the same thing is going to happen with Zac. I have a strong desire to check out whatever he comes out with and like Kaiser I watch the preview every time it’s on. Instead of changing the channel like I used to when one for HSM came on.
I’m actually still curious about his girlfriend too. I think I just don’t get all the hate for her, she’s pretty darn hot! But it’s also could be because I haven’t even watched a preview for HSM, let alone one of the movies.

He is gay though and looks like 12. Who finds that attractive/

I see another (potential) Brad Pitt/ George Clooney on our hands. Only better with age.

He really reminds me of Joaquin Phoenix back in the day.
I think if he were 20 years older I’d find him gorgeous in that suit.

Anybody see that picture of him coming out of the ocean in Hawaii? Unbelievable body, cute face, beautiful eyes. Way too old for him, but I can see why girls fall for him while I’ll never figure out the surly Robert Pattinson attraction at all.

RobN: for me, I think Pattinson’s more attractive because he’s far less groomed and effeminate looking. He’s pretty, but not such a pretty, plucked princess as Efron.

i love Zac Efron and I love Vanessa Hudgens. I think they are a cute couple and I root for both of them. Plus, even though I am an adult I think HSM is an adorable movie franchise. Harmless fun aimed at 10 year-old girls.

Too pretty and too young. Cougars don’t want to feel like they are too much of a cougar.

I don’t mind the hair. The “freshly f*cked” look has a certain appeal.

Why do I look at him and my gay radar switch on?
Anyway I can’t seem to like him, to me he’ll forever be “the high school musical guy” .. urgh.

I LOVE Zac Efron. He is just gorgeous and I love his hair!

I don’t find him attractive, but then, my sense of “attractive” is very different from most people’s

Has he got a case of Paris Hilton wonky eye going on there? His face is getting pudgy, is it coke bloat?
Report this comment as spam or abuse
I don’t get the appeal, but then I’m not the best judge of guys anyway. I am warming to him, though-I disliked him when HSM was the big tween thing. And then Twilight came along and I miss the more innocent, saner HSM frenzy.

No it’s not coke bloat LMFAO. He’s not been well, poor thing. He’s so gorgeous though, bless him, and a pretty good actor. Kid will go far.
And yes, I would.
jajaja

can’t get over him using one of those eyelash curler things…

Don’t know what cougars (hate the term) or jailbait have to do with Zac Efron. His physique has matured but his face is still so young, it looks a little strange. Maybe I should look for longer
. Hope he gets to carve a career like DiCaprio’s. Unsure if he has that sort of talent but if the inside matches the outside he’ll be successful.

He has a nice torso, but that pretty childlike face puts me right off. I’ll check back on him in about fifteen years.

Hmm he’s very attractive esp those eyes but I’m not attracted to him. I’ll wait until he grows into his manliness like Leo did. And yet Joseph Gordon Levitt, who some have described as twee or elfin, absolutely does it for me. Guy can wear the fuck out of a suit for one thing and there’s something about his voice and eyes and the dimples and the fact that he looks a little like Heath. So um, yeah can we get JGL in the next hot guy Friday post. Who’s with me?

Love him! So dreamy. He has a James Dean swagness to him. Great actor and I know he will have a wonderful career!
