Vanessa Hudgens: Chez Nous Sweetheart

Stepping out for a midday outing, Vanessa Hudgens was spotted leaving Chez Nous restaurant in Toluca Lake, California on Friday (November 21). Sporting a black top and jeans to go with her bangy hairdo, the “High School Musical” hottie enjoyed a bite to eat and conversation with a friend before passing the paparazzi on the way back out to her car. Speaking of paparazzi, Miss Hudgens recently revealed her disdain for the intrusive shutterbugs, telling, “I mean, put yourself in my situation: people who you do not know taking pictures of you in your own room!” “It’s obnoxious and invasive, and I don’t know why they would do it,” the 19-year-old brunette beauty adds.

With “High School Musical 3” behind him, Zac Efron was spotted toting a few scripts in hand as he left Walt Disney Studios in Burbank on Thursday afternoon (November 20). Wearing a collared buttondown shirt with jeans and sneakers, the 21-year-old Disney hunk seems to be mulling over his options as far as his next theatrical move is concerned - with rumors of a possible role in a “Pirates of the Caribbean” sequel, as well as another “High School Musical” - if the money’s right. Meanwhile, it seems as if Zac is a bit relieved to have someone to share the title of male teen heartthrob with him - “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson. “I’m stoked for him,” Zac told press at the GQ Men of the Year Awards. “I’m gonna be there. I’ll be watching ‘Twilight’ in theaters – probably opening night.”

Zac Efron: GQ Cutie

He’s made quite a name for himself, rising from his Disney beginnings to become one of the most sought-after young actors in the industry. And last night Zac Efron was mingling with Hollywood’s studliest at the GQ Men of the Year party. The “High School Musical 3: Senior Year” hunk arrived at the Chateau Marmont Hotel in Los Angeles looking slick in an all-black ensemble as he posed for the paparazzi before heading inside. And Zac was in good company - this year’s winners included Leonardo DiCaprio with the Leading Man Award, Michael Phelps with the Golden Boy Award, and Barack Obama with the Game Changer Award.
