Busting bad dish!

CLAIM: Zac Efron Is “Hollywood’s Worst Influence”

Truth rating: 2

(GettyImages.com)

“Despite his take-him-home-to-Mom image, Zac Efron is developing a rep in Hollywood for being a bad influence,” claims a “source” for Star.

He is?

The tabloid reports, “The Disney alum and his close buddy Kellan Lutz throw wild late-night bashes that sometimes go on for 24 hours — and Rumer Willis, Lindsay Lohan and other young and fabulous L.A. ladies line up to attend.”

Oh, and Efron is very “picky” about who gets into these soirees.

“Zac gets a background check on anyone who makes the party list,” one “source” tells Star. “He personally approves everyone before they get through.”

Once inside, however, Efron is said to sometimes disappear with multiple women at once.

The “insider” explains, “It’s like he’s trying to become the next Hugh Hefner.”

Um, OK.

Let’s back up a moment here.

Efron is a young and successful Hollywood star — he’s going to throw the occasional party.

He may even determine who gets to come into his party.

But the notion that he’s “Hollywood’s Worst Influence,” hosting Hefner-esque bacchanals that are earning him a notorious reputation is a huge exaggeration.

Just two months ago, Star claimed Efron was “sick” of his “good-guy image” and looking to “cut loose” — so the tab invented a story about him chasing Rihanna.

Apparently, when that bogus rumor never panned out, the tab decided to play up his “partying.”

A source close to Efron calls the new story “ridiculous.”

    YAWN at Star Mags unoriginal stories.

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    lol,
    they been trying to make him this ”bad guy” for the past year.

  • Susan Madison

    Well, he does hang with an upper-crust crowd that has access to booze, blow and high-class party girl hook-as who call themselves models. Where there’s smoke there’s fire. He’s young, so I hope he doesn’t crash and burn. And how would his PR know whether or not he’s getting BJs while on some yacht in France? They ask him? Ha!!!!

  • Emberlite14

    THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ibelieveit

    I’m trying to figure out why anyone wouldn’t believe this He’s hanging out with known thugs. That is half of his friends. WE know he’s been at house parties with Paris Hilton and other losers (charlie sheen no less). He never was a ‘wholesome’ as people made him out to be. He’s just sneaky and has dumb fans that would lick his butt to make him look perfect! He’s finally getting to bathe in that pussy like he’s wanted to for years. Its about ime.

    This story is all fantasy. Zac and kellan haven’t seen each other in a long Time. Even in Cannes they avoided each other.Between promotions, traveling Photoshoots, vacations, Zac hasn’t even been in L.A. that long to do this bull. Star Mag should check facts before they listen to “insiders” with an agenda

  • Bored

    Because it’s the PR’s job to know,so when rubbish stories come out they can deal with them.

    So poor Efron is tainted by association. Well if that’s the world we live in I guess everyone should take a look at the people they hang out with.

  • Bored

    So if your friend(s) does a dumb thing does that mean you will? No!.
    Yes the guy is not as clean as his fans think, but this ludicrous and comes from idiots who want to believe the worst in him.
    Just coz he hangs out with these people does not mean he is like them. They could just have mutual friends. Have you never been to house party and thought crap who are all these idiots?

  • ibelieveit

    your so funny. do you honestly believe that the friends he has, he has becasue he doesn’t believe in anything that they do and he just continues to hang out with them, but never take part in any of their behavior. If you believe that, then you have issues.
    We become who we are by the company we keep. Its a known fact. he’s chosen those friends because its who he wants to be. Just another example that he’s been a liar and a fake for years and vulnerable little girls are still hanging around to fall for it.
    Yeah I believe it, and I also believe that he’ll have to live with himself and one day will have to confess that crap to the person he loves. It’ll all come back around.

  • ibelieveit

    who says its just happened. he’s been rumored to being partying nightly for some time now. This isn’t fresh or happened in the last month or two. Its been in the last year or so. Nothing new, they’re just adding stuff to it.

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    so basically you believe everything you read and here?
    based on twitter sightings,haters and all that?

  • Bored

    So 80% of my circle of friends smoke, Just because I go out with them does that mean I smoke? No it does not. You are the one with the issues if you believe that he does. As said before I don’t believe he is as clean as the tweens want him to be, but I certainly don’t believe this extreme.

  • Bored

    EXAMPLE: @Dodo I partying with Zac Efron at the beach house last night.

    Anyone can make this crap up.

    Efron being a bad boy or whatever sells more than him going to meet sick kids or whatever or with him going to a boat rally back home to support a homeless shelter.

    So people can believe all the bad stuff, but unless you are with the guy 24/7 you have no clue what he is like.

  • In the Biz

    He’s become an annoying celeb known only for his personal life although he tries like hell to keep things on the downlow. He does hang out with losers. At this point it doesn’t matter. His most recent movies suck and a couple more flops he will fade away.

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    are you replying to me or believesit?

    belivesit sounds like every our person who hates zac and just think zac is some horrible person, they continue to hate zac and just believe everything they read and hear

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    so he’s annoying because he doesn’t show off his personal life and gets papped 24/7 like other celebs?
    there’s a reason why he’s a private person…

  • In the Biz

    Honey he doesn’t have to show off…people already know what he is all about. Hate to bust your bubble. He is also rumored to be packing small. Poor dude.

  • ibelieveit

    bahahaha…I heard that too. I’ve heard he uses socks to help himself out too! LOL….
    doesn’t surprise me. I always felt like when he dated that other chick he was trying to prove something.

  • ibelieveit

    ahaha….no….i see and I know…enough said.

  • WendyEfron

    look i just wanted to say that hes not the worst influence or whatever. hes amazing. you dont know him. those shits are rumors cause you want to find stuff on him. you see him negative because you want to see him that way. but look. there are way more other shits you should care about. i hate magazines for this. you want a story just to ruin celebs’ life! then you wonder why they stop appearing out. then you think “why hes mean to us paps?” maybe because you fucking ruin his life! LEAVE CELEBS IN PEACE. they are normal people with more moneys than us. just this. they need their privacy too.

  • Anonymous

    The Star says Rumer Willis and Lindsay Lohan go, Then says Zac is “picky” right there is a contradictory in terms.

    To in the Biz … You heard wrong wait til you see The Paperboy

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    and what are you trying to prove?
    we get it.. you dont like zac so why continue to comment and etc?

  • http://twitter.com/lipkin21 lauren

    so basically you people believe blind items and the ”sources” that star mag has? really?
    yea he’s not perfect.. he has issues..so why continue to prove somthing?

    also dont call me honey either.

  • ibelieveit

    i don’t think any of this really matters, the thing that bothers me is that people wonder why everyone is so wrapped up in this ‘change’ he’s made, or that his fans have started to doubt him….well when you say things for years to your fans, and make a claim that that’s who you are, then your actions contradict its hard to not see him as a fake. BE WHO YOU ARE!! OWN IT!! I’d have a hell of a lot more respect for him, if he did that. And Markmor…..remember that this article for sure had ‘junk’ in it, but you need to get the fact that it stems from some kind of truth. That is just fact….so get it ……don’t make him out to be perfect. Find another star. Even one with flaws, but if they can admit their that person in the first place, instead of ‘hiding and pretending’ then we’d have a whole lot more respect for him than this.

  • In the Biz

    You sound like an obsessed freak HONEY. Efron needs to get a restraining order on you.

  • Anonymous

    ibelieveit The fact is he is young and he parties. Big deal . I’m saying most of this is just made up. People come on here and claim “I’m in the know” sure they are. I’m not saying he is perfect no one is. He is not as bad as all this either.

  • In the Biz

    He’s your typical player who uses his looks and actor/celeb status to manipulate people. If he’d man up and just be himself instead of spinning his interviews every which way, people would have more respect for him. At this rate, he’s going to party his looks away. That combined with his poor choice in projects will get him a one-way ticket back to San Luis Opispo.

  • True

    This is true. Zac is always having parties at his house. Always.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/4CPDSLQJ4YYHHI6AQDB3N7IZZU April J

    This is a load of bull shit!! Zac is a genuine down-to-earth guy and you NEVER see him partying, drinking, or anything. Zac keeps low key profile instead of fame whoring like other celebs. Gossip sites like this just make stuff up for publicity and they go after the realest celebrity guy out there.

  • just me

    Star mag is an insult on human intelligence

  • eradicate stupidity

    what is that enrages you so much about Efron? Jalousy? You even know he helps himself with the sock, lol, that’s something and yet, Vanessa liked him for almost 5 years (not that I am much of a fan of hers).
