The 21-year-old-star, Zac Efron insists he would never have sex with anyone he wasn’t in love with – but admits his attitude may change in future.

Zac Efron said:

“That’s what my parents told me, it’s what I believe and what I was brought up to believe. “I think everyone thinks that at some point – it’s just how soon you change your own opinions.” Zac recently admitted his mother Starla was upset when she saw a photograph of him and Vanessa apparently leaving a sex toy shop. He explained: “My mom is like, ‘Zac, what did you buy in a sex shop?’ I was like, ‘Mom, calm down, it’s not a sex shop.’ She wouldn’t have any of it. “She’s like, ‘I knew you were being sexual!’ But she understood. My stocking was full of condoms this Christmas. She buys me the economy box.”

According to E! News, the note read, “Perez, Happy Birthday, May this year bring you lots of love, luck, and celebrity meltdowns. Zac.”

Hilton said of the gift, “Zac Efron just sent a big bottle of champagne to my room and I started freaking out like a little girl! I almost cried; I think I did cry a little bit.”

Ashley Tisdale Talks About Zac Efron

Ashley Tisdale, plays Sharpay Evans in the tween phenomenon High School Musical films. Tisdale has been acting since she was three and has been a regular in Disney productions since leaving school. She’s also enjoying success in the US with a spin-off pop career. High School Musical 3: Senior Year is in cinemas this week.

What’s the secret of High School Musical’s success?
It’s because we have so much fun filming the movies. We have a great chemistry and that shows on screen. There aren’t many wholesome films parents can let their children watch without worrying, so I’m honoured to be part of it.

Do you consider yourself a role model to your young fans?
No, nobody’s perfect. I’m just a normal human being living out my dreams, loving what I do. If kids look up to me and like me for who I am, that’s amazing – what you see is what you get – I don’t try to be anyone else.

Who did you look up to as a child?
I looked up to my mom. She has a lot of confidence and taught me never to give up. This business is 90 per cent rejection and it feels like you’re never going to get to where you want to be. I thought about giving it up but my luckily Mom talked me out of it and I got my role on the Disney show The Suite Life Of Zack & Cody soon afterwards.

What were your back-up plans?
I wanted to do creative writing at college – I love to write. My parents taught me not to put all my eggs in one basket so I finished high school. When Zack & Cody got picked up, I’d just graduated and I’ve been busy from then on. I worked in clothing stores while I was at school just to have something to fall back on.

What are the highs and lows of working in a clothes shop?
Retail is horrible. I worked at four different stores. My parents wanted me to learn the value of a dollar, even though I’ve been in showbusiness since I was three. I chose the stores I liked to shop at so I could get the staff discounts. One of my managers hated me and would make me do the lamest jobs such as pick gum off the floor that had been there for five years. There’d be no way I could get it up. It taught me a lot of life lessons. I was shy and it taught me how to sell.

You’re 23 but play a high school student. Do people treat you as if you’re younger?
Yes. People who don’t know me often talk to me as if I’m 16. Even though I look young, I’m mature. I knew what I wanted at an early age.

Do you get asked for ID all the time when you go out?
I don’t drink or smoke, so there aren’t any occasions where I’d need to show anyone my driving licence.

Are you worried High School Musical will prevent you getting serious acting roles in the future?
No. I don’t want to run away from my fans and I realise I’ll play high school students for a couple more years yet, maybe just in edgier comedies. Who knows?

Did Vanessa Hudgens’ nude pictures appearing on the internet cause a High School Musical crisis?
I don’t talk about her personal life but I love her and she’s my best friend. She’s a great person and I’ll always be there for her no matter what.

Are you excited about the US election?
Yes I am. Totally. I know who I’m going to vote for but I’m keeping that to myself.

Does Zac Efron really have terrible BO?
That’s so not true. He’s the cleanest person I know.

Are you happy with how your nose job turned out?
I’ve explained myself enough about that. I did it for medical reasons to correct a deviated septum and I don’t look much different.

Have you ever had a supernatural experience?
Yes. I was shooting a film in New Zealand and thought my hotel room was haunted. Lights would go on and off and I’d hear things being thrown around the room. I could tell something was there. I like to believe maybe it was just electrical problems, though.

Zac Efron, Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens have made it onto Forbes magazine’s 2008 top paid teens’ list – proving that in the world of showbiz they’ve definitely made it.

An insider tells In Touch Weekly, “For the first two HSM movies that aired on Disney Channel, the cast all made about the same.

“Now that HSM 3 is headed for the big screen, all of their salaries went up, but no one made more than $3 million.”

Zac reportedly doesn’t want to appear in another sequel unless he is paid $8 million.

The teen heartthrob is said to have earned the most for this instalment, with girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens making considerably less thanks to that nude photo scandal.
