This is just a quick clip from the set of High School Musical 2 where Zac does what he calls his “booty dance!”

I’m not usually too crazy about fan videos but I think this one was really well done! It’s got a lot of great video clips of Zac during the filming of a bunch of movies, both on the set and off. It’s set to Mandy Moore’s “Cry.”

He looked so much younger just a few years ago, didn’t he?

So someone had a lot of time on their hands and put together this montage of Zac kissing a whole lot of co-stars!

He really lays one on Nikki Blonsky off the big screen, doesn’t he? Maybe he and Vanessa will get as much lip action in High School Musical 3!

Ok, this clip of Zac on The View is from last year just before High School Musical 2 aired, but I hadn’t seen it yet.

In it Zac talks about High School Musical 2, Hairspray, what it’s like to “suddenly” have fans, his early musical experiences (which included flying and toupees), and dodged the dreaded dating question for probably one of the last times!

And heads-up - there’s some Footloose remake talk!

Radio Disney counted down the most requested songs of 2007 and Zac, Vanessa and the High School Musical 2 soundtrack had a pretty solid showing!

6. Say OK - Vanessa Hudgens
9. What Time Is It - High School Musical
14. Gotta Go My Own Way - Vanessa Hudgens & Zac Efron
20. Everyday - High School Musical
24. You Are The Music Me - Vanessa Hudgens & Zac Efron
47. Work This Out - High School Musical

Zac is also getting a lot of praise lately!

From the Contra Costa Times:

Biggest Tween Sensation (Male): Zac Efron turned on the sparkly eyed, dimple-faced charm and helped the Disney Channel’s “High School Musical 2” achieve the largest audience (17.2 million) in basic-cable history.

From the Boston Globe:

Television’s most striking successes tended to be wholesome family fare: “American Idol.” “Dancing With the Stars.” “High School Musical 2.” We swooned over fresh-faced, clean-cut boys: Zac Efron, Sanjaya Malakar.

From the Fort-Worth Star Telegram:

What’s Hot: Zac Efron and Miley Cyrus — him with the smash hit “High School Musical 2” telemovie and soundtrack, her with a successful “Hannah Montana” TV show and sold-out concert tour — rocketed to stardom, leaving anyone over 18 suddenly feeling very, very old and as useless as a first-generation iPod.

Zac and Vanessa chat with Extra while on the red carpet at the High School Musical 2 Extended DVD release party.

They look so cute together!

Rachel sent me a link to this very funny video her friend made. It’s Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive“ dubbed over Zac’s “Bet On It” scene in High School Musical 2. It’s eerie how well the choreography and song match at times!

Thanks, Rachel!

More shots of Zac Efron at the Nickelodeon Australian Kid’s Choice Awards last night in Sydney. He co-hosted the show with The Veronicas and also took home the “Fave Movie Star” award, and High School Musical 2 took home the award for “So Hot Right Now.” Congrats, Zac!

Anyone else wish he’d ditch the white sneakers?
