For all of those High School Musical fans who wanted some equal time after being forced to see Vanessa Hudgens naked, they will have to keep waiting. Despite all the rumors and reports, Zac Efron told the French website TeeMix that he won't be doing the Broadway play Equus because he doesn't have the balls. Actually his term was that he wasn't ballsy enough.
I don't know if that is because he is afraid to show off what he has or just that he doesn't want to get naked every night in front of a live audience with cell phone cameras. Even if I had a great body, I think there is something truly terrifying about the prospect of getting up in front of 1,000 people a night and basically being there naked for 30 minutes. It is quite something else to do it on a film and be done with it and not have to do it every night.
So, I don't have any problems with Zac chickening out. I know the folks at Disney must be breathing a sigh of relief that their feel good franchise kid doesn't want to be strutting his stuff on stage for awhile.
"But I don't know if I would do something edgy for the sake of doing something edgy, I think as I mature, so will my roles. I think it will come with time. I'm not going to do anything drastic."
What that means of course is that when the whole High School Musical - The College Years gets done with and he has no career, then and only then will he be willing to strip for money and for the shock value. So, all of you 15 year old kids will just have to make do with a naked Harry Potter for now.

ReplyDeletenow Clive Owen..that's a diff story.
Thank god! Equus is one of the most difficult, heart-wrenching plays I have ever read/seen, and requires someone who can actually ACT.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the make of the audience if he did it--
ReplyDeleteIt's really not that hard to get naked in front of the general public (or even a stranger or two) after you've done it a couple of times. What's much harder is making those people forget they've seen you naked.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a (surprisingly) smart move on his part.
I LOL'd @ Kellylynn's comment about making people forget.
ReplyDeleteActually, the getting naked in front of people part isn't so bad once you get used to it. Seriously, 6 20-minute shows a day, 5-7 days a week, after a while, it's just like a stroll in the park. ;)
