Why is Zac Efron such a MESS?

Publish date: 2024-05-07

He's talented, successful, and handsome. Yet he seems beyond troubled and may be dead some day from an overdose or a drug deal gone wrong.

Could all of Zac's personal demons stem from the fact that he is a closeted gay man who can't deal with his sexuality?

We haven't heard from him in awhile

Like many former child actors, they have tissues of issues.

And, a conflicted sexuality doesn't help.

And, judging by the attention he gives his body, I'd say he has some body issues as well.

He was probably raped/groomed as a child like most other celebrities.

Just being a drug addict would explain his supposed "demons". Drug addiction is not easy to live with.

Even with drug addiction he's still as bland as rocks. It must be depressing to be so handsome and so dull.

What is this weird thing DL has where they think every time a person has an issue it has to do with their sexuality? As if it can’t be ANY OTHER THING IN THE WORLD. Not everyone’s life revolves around sexuality and sex. Not every issue is about who we are attracted to.

He was a child star, so he was probably sexually abused.

Zac Efron was in a really bad place some years ago, but recently there has been nothing embarrassing that I am aware of. He seems to be much more together.

Zac Efron was absolutely a child actor, Highschool musical is his 13th(!) credit on IMDB, he had been steadily working before that.

Including the "Summerland" TV show r14 refers to, which I definitely watched at the time.

He is nice to look at but as a poster said above = Zac is very bland. He is a bad actor. How Zac is even insurable any more, I have no idea. All of that said, I guess he is giving up ass to someone powerful in Hollywood, because the cheesecake films starring Efron keep rolling out...

His good looks and the level of adulation he’s garnered for them messed him up. I’ve never really watched any of his movies and he doesn’t seem to have received much attention for his acting ability. That probably leads to a very shallow identity.

by Anonymousreply 21January 13, 2020 12:11 AM

He seems to want to be taken seriously as an actor. He might be an actual case of his attractive appearance hampering his growth.

On the other hand, Brad Pitt had the world bowing at his feet for decades and he turned in great performances (unlike any I’ve seen from Efron). He wasn’t really ever acknowledged for his performances until recently since he is older and less heartthrobby but I think he’ll be better appreciated in retrospect for his talents than he was when he was the Sexiest Man Alive.

by Anonymousreply 22January 13, 2020 12:21 AM

He's the classic case of style over substance. He's an attractive guy and, to his credit, he has a decent knack for musicals, but he's not a great actor at all. Sometimes, he's even downright embarrassed himself like that one ridiculous scene in High School Musical 2 that's supposed to be his big dramatic moment and it's one of the funniest (and gayest) things I've ever seen.

He does seem to want to try and get better, but try as he might, I'm not so sure he'll ever become a great actor. He might coast by on his looks for a few more years.

All he's ever had going for him was his looks and a decent singing voice. If he was in the MGM musical era, he'd probably find steady work for a while, but we're living in a different time. He's done a few comedies, but he's not really funny and his dramatic acting chops aren't completely embarrassing, but he doesn't really register much in those roles.

Such extreme fame and adulation and attention at such a young age is more likely than not a guarantee of mental health issues. He and Bieber are representative.

by Anonymousreply 42January 14, 2020 8:50 PM

Child abuse is horrific. But the assumption that most child actors are abused (other than not having a normal life or having to go to regular school), is false. Even the ones who turn into drug addicts. Being a working actor at that age is equivalent to popularity, and parties = drugs and alcohol. Some of us get addicted faster than others, but when you spend year after year going to multiple parties per week, it doesn’t even take a genetic predisposition in order to start having a substance abuse problem.

It's hard to maintain a body like that if you're a drug whore. He may like the cocaine but I don't think he's into the hard stuff. Plus, I've never seen him looking haggard or gaunt or anything.

There have been repeated rumors all over the internet and DL that Efron was into some type of kinky sex and is now being blackmailed by very powerful men in Hollywood with embarrassing video footage.

It sounds farfetched but the series he just filmed where he got ill is about him putting himself in abnormally risky and extreme conditions so someone of that mindset might actually act that out in a sexual way as well.

I wish I could remember the details of the rumors but I'm sure someone else here can elaborate.

Fame and money are drugs. Removes gravity. Having all your dreams fulfilled also toxic. Trump had money and fame early enough to be inoculated?

Isn’t it crazy - a major star known by everyone. Yet we can’t get one story about his debauched behavior - on the record. I 100% believe he is drugged out and the DTLA beating, deadly infection in New Guinea or wherever and methed out blond look are obvious components fo his drugged out state.

The Hollywood PR world is so scary. It can hide the deepest darkest behavior of people who make money - like Singer and the pedophiles, Weinstein, Cosby. So many truly sick bastards who are enabled by the Hollywood power/PR machine. Worse than Washington in its complete absence of ethics.

Zac's been in Australia for the whole all year.

Given it is pretty much covid free, he didn't want to return to the U.S. and who could blame him.

He can swan around OZ with no restrictions, or go back to the U.S. and catch corona the minute he stepped off the plane.

He seems content downunder.

[quote] He was a small time child actor, not a child star. I doubt a two minute part in NCIS, Firefly or ER fucked him up much.

You can't be serious. You do realize that in order to get even a spoken line in a TV show as a child you need to go through hundreds of auditions, right? This kid has been passed around like most child working actors in town, I'm unfamiliar with his family history so if he didn't have present parents or worse, if he had stage parents that would sell him short like many others, he most likely suffered some kind of abuse or sexual harassment. The number of child stars dying of suicide or drug addiction is not a coincidence, there's a very established pattern that leads to it.

[quote] Child abuse is horrific. But the assumption that most child actors are abused (other than not having a normal life or having to go to regular school), is false. Even the ones who turn into drug addicts. Being a working actor at that age is equivalent to popularity, and parties = drugs and alcohol. Some of us get addicted faster than others, but when you spend year after year going to multiple parties per week, it doesn’t even take a genetic predisposition in order to start having a substance abuse problem.

I've been working in this business for 15 years and you couldn't be further from reality. Hollywood is far from being the pedo mecca right wingers say, but sexual harassment and abuse is very common with everyone, including children. The defining factor here as stated has to do with the parents or adults willing to take care of their offspring. Ive never met an actor who doesn't have at least a couple of stories of abuse, if they say they don't, you can bet they're lying for PR purposes. The very nature of how relationships are established in the entertainment industry facilitates the abuse, and #metoo is far from ending that. BTW abuse is any sort of imposition of power with sexual connotation, you don't have to rape a child or a young actor to screw them up, a lot of the abuse with young actors is done by verbal abuse with sexual innuendos and touching. The list is very long of things you can do before you physically rape someone. The endless parties and easy access to drugs as you claim do happen, but they're usually followed by actual abuse.

It's interesting that when Chris Columbus was casting the Harry Potter kids, he didn't cast any children with obvious stage parents. Once the kids were cast, they were protected--for instance, Michael Jackson tried repeatedly to get invited to the HP sets and was always, always turned down. CC and his cohort seemed to understand that if they wanted happy, stable people who could last the whole series, they had to take extra measures to keep these kids' heads screwed on straight. And even then, Daniel Radcliffe developed into a teenage alcoholic and has only been sober in recent years. Fame is a motherfucker for the very young.

The set of the Wonder Years was notoriously safe for kids and it had to do with the parents of Danica Mckellar and Fred Savage. There's a special featurette on their Wonder Years DVD where they talk about it. The moms are still friends to this day. They were everything you should be in this business, overprotected, focused on school and always on set with their kids. As far as I know, Blossom's set was also very clean at the request of Mayim Bialik's parents.

It's pretty sad that the parents have to hover like helicopters or the kids wind up abused. Hollywood may not be the nest of pedos QAnon and the like claim, but it's clear there are a lot of abusive people in the industry nonetheless.
