Ｚａｃ Ｅｆｒｏｎ’ｓ Ｒｉｓｉｎｇ ｕｐ

Most teenage heartthrobs insist that it’s actually a drag to be craved， day in and day out， by millions of underage girls. If we were to listen in on a cross-generational pinup， the litany of grievances would likely include the obliteration of privacy， the lack of fellowship with other dudes， and， worst of all， the assumption that they’re all a bunch of talentless knuckleheads. But Zac Efron takes a different approach to the experience. For him it’s not just a job， it’s an adventure. “I’m always bobbing and weaving through alleyways trying to get to meetings， scouting out and looking outside doors and running around like Jason Bourne，” says Efron， who has emerged as a prime target of both the paparazzi and love-struck teens ever since High School Musical became an inter- national obsession almost three years ago.
