The hot, hot, Hot! star of High School Musical 2 (we heart Troy!) and Hairspray (he's doo-wop cool Link] has our heads spinning! Dreamy Zac Efron, 19, spills about his first kiss and putting the "man" in manicure.
GL: What's it like to be the "it" guy?
Zac: It's interesting being in that position, but it's a blast. Just the idea that even one girl has my poster on her wall is kinda crazy. I'm still getting used to it.
Were you a geek in high school?
I wouldn't say I was a geek, but I never tried to be one of the cool kids. I was too focused on school. I didn't belong to a clique. I was just a pretty standard kid, kind of a floater between all the groups. I've known my friends since day care. We went all the way through high school together, and we still hang out.
What most sets your characters apart in Hairspray and HSM2?
My characters are kinda parallel because they're both the coolest kids in school. But Link is self-absorbed, and he's not as smart as Troy.
