Zac Efron won “Best Male Performance” at the 2009 MTV Movie Awards for his role as Troy Bolton in “High School Musical 3″. Congrats Zac!

Zac’s movie award moment was kind of weird! Bruno was flying through the air and landed in Eminem’s lap. Strange! The HSM3 star also presented the Generation award to Zac Efron.

On the red carpet, Zac talked about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s kiss in “Twilight”. He and co-star Vanessa Hudgens were nominated in the same category. You can see what he thought of the kiss scene in the video clip here.

The High School Musical 3 cutie on shopping, singing and Sharpay…

You dance, sing and act in High School Musical 3 – but which of the three do you prefer?

A: I’m definitely not a dancer. I can move well, but it’s more about the acting and the singing for me. Acting and singing are completely different, so I can’t say which one I love better because I love them both. I love acting because I get to play different characters. But I also love my music because I get to portray me. My fans can get to know me better through my music, which is something I really like.

Want the inside scoop on the hunky High School Musical hottie? You got it! Zac Efron waxes lyrical about college, shaving his head and the secret scenes filmed exclusively for the HSM3 DVD… Phwoar!

You’ve got the world at your feet, Zac! Have you got any advice for people who want to follow in your footsteps?

Z: The one thing I would say to anyone who is considering acting is do it because you love doing it. Don’t do anything just to be famous. It would really suck if you had the fame without the love for what you do.

Do you still enjoy acting?

Z: Are you kidding me? Of course I do! I wouldn’t change anything for the world, although the fame part of this industry is tough to handle at times. I can tell you that fame is probably the most unadorable thing about acting. High School Musical is what got me here today and I’m very grateful – but the fame part isn’t so fun.

Is it difficult to relax when you’re photographed wherever you go?

Z: To be honest, I can’t handle the paparazzi. They’re everywhere. One of them was in a dumpster trying to take my photo the other day. It was crazy! Another time, one was hanging off the back of a pick-up truck driving down a road. They think they’re being clever, but they’re not.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens left for Japan today, January 24th! They were seen at LAX catching a departing flight.

They are headed to Tokyo to promote “High School Musical 3: Senior Year”.

It’s been reported that Zac was flirting with “Transformers” star Megan Fox at the Golden Globes and that Vanessa was sulking in the corner. I saw pictures of them hugging at the GGs, but from the looks of it, things are just fine with Zanessa. Vanessa seems like too confident of a woman to be “sulking in a corner” somewhere, while her man flirts. I don’t believe it for a minute!

Don’t forget that “High School Musical 3: Senior Year” comes to DVD on February 17th! I’ll have my copy soon and I’ll let you know how it is and all about the bonus features.

It’s official, High School Musical 3:Senior Year is a hit! I just arrived back from seeing an early morning showing of the movie, and I can honestly say that I loved it. I will not say much about the scenes, because I don’t want to ruin it for those of you who haven’t seen it yet.

It all started with High School Musical 1. It was this “little” Disney Channel Original Movie with some new young actors who could sing and dance pretty good. The movie ended up being a success for the network and so that opened up the door for High School Musical 2, also a DCOM. Who knew that the franchise would be so popular, that it would warrant a third movie to premiere in theaters all over the world? Troy, Gabriella, Chad, Sharpay, Ryan and Taylor had become household names with millions and millions of fans. A theatrical release was inevitable.

High School Musical 3 sweeties Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale were on Good Morning America to promote HSM3, which hits theaters in the U.S. this Friday, October 24th.

They were asked what has changed since their fame and Ashley said that she now gets to fly first class for free. lol They also talked about how all of them live close to each other and are really good friends off screen too.

Ashley talks about Sharpay’s big music number "I Want it All". She said it’s one of the biggest numbers in the movie, with 5 wardrobe and wig changes. It’s Sharpay’s dream come true.

We also get to see a very sweet scene with Troy and Gabriella where it looks like she is telling him goodbye. Sniff, sniff. How sad. Zac and Vanessa on screen together is amazing, isn’t it? They should do a romantic comedy together or something.

Check out the full interview below. Oh, and Zac Efron will be on GMA tomorrow!
