Zac's Back-Door BFF Spills All!

Move over Vanessa Hudgens—Zac Efron’s main partner in crime is his bestie, Bubba Lewis, another actor he met years ago on the set of a homey feel-good TV flick, Miracle Run. “He’s my boy,” Bubba told us about Z.E. Like they say, bros before moderately talented brunette teen actresses. That’s the saying, right?

Give us what we wanna hear, Bub—what don’t we know about the Zac? “He’s a dork,” B.L. said bitch-lovingly. “His image and all that...He’s such a pretty boy. But we stay up till four in the morning playing Halo all the time on weekends, so he’s a dork, for sure.”

Hmmm. How almost Matthew McConaughey bongo-esque, eh? Who wins at Halo? “Me, I’m a lot better. I throw grenades at him.”

So if he’s such a big nerd, does he ever need to ask you for girl advice? “No, he doesn’t need that. I’m the one who needs to ask him. It’s always been that way, even when we were 14 and 15. We’d go out and see movies on Friday nights, and I’d be like, ‘Man, that girl's pretty, what should I do?’ He’s the one who gives me advice.” Well, at least Zacky’s lady-killer status is accurate.

Whatcha think of Ms. Hudgens? “I remember when he was working on the first [High School Musical], he called me and he said, ‘I met this girl, she’s great.’ I said I wanna meet her, so I met her, and I looked at him, and I said, ‘I approve.’”

Didn’t you already see her in those lascivious leaked photos? Or was that just us? Oh, and how hard is it to have a BF that’s so friggin’ famous? “People stay outside of his place all the time,” fessed Bubba. “It’s crazy whenever we go to Starbucks and we have to work out a plan. Like, I’ll drive my car around back.”

The two dudes are even working together again, on Ef-hon’s new Big-like flick, 17 Again. “He called me one day, and he said, 'I’m doing this movie...there’s a character for a dork, and I want you to be it.' Great, so you’re casting me as a dork...I have to get back at him for that.”

Gosh, babe, think telling a gossip reporter that the biggest teen heartthrob on the planet is a dork is an awfully good start. Keep in touch, now, hear?
