Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman and Matthew McConaughey are one sexy bunch!

The three stars hit up the Cannes Film Festival to promote their upcoming flick The Paperboy.

The movie is based on Pete Dexter's 1995 novel about a reporter played by McConaughey who investigates the conviction of a sleazy inmate played by John Cusack.

In the Lee Daniels-directed flick, there's a "golden shower" scene, but it's reportedly non-sexual. Efron's character is stung by a jellyfish and needs relief. Yep, it's Nicole's character who is going with the flow ... if you know what we mean.

Should be interesting!

Is that you, Zefron?!

We caught Zac Efron making his way through LAX airport today, and we almost didn't recognize him with that mustache! The Lucky One star sported a beanie, shades, and some serious muscles, and although we think he looks a little creepy with his new facial hair, there's still no denying the 24-year-actor is a bonafide hottie!

Maybe his new, 70's porn star look is for an upcoming role? Or maybe not. The New Years Eve lothario just signed on to play an obnoxious loud frat boy who will butt heads with the neighborhood family man, played by Seth Rogen, in an upcoming comedy titled Townies.

We guess May must be Mustache Month!

Looks like someone certainly showed off their Laker pride this weekend!

Zac Efron was spotted sporting a Kobe Bryant t-shirt and Lakers hat on his way to the Staples Center on Saturday to see his favorite team take on the Denver Nuggets in their Game 7 match-up.

Fortunately for him and other Laker hopefuls, the team won in thrilling fashion 96-87 and will move on to the next round of the playoffs to face the Oklahoma City Thunder. Kobe should thank Zac for the star power!

Is it just us, or does Zac Efron even need a pickup line?

He might be one of the most gorgeous actors in Hollywood, but Efron still relies on a go-to pick-up line when he spots a beautiful woman.

The 24-year-old actor revealed in the May issue of Women's Health, "'So, do you like High School Musical?' I'm kidding! If the situation's right, buy someone a drink. Think on your toes, use what's around you, and come up with something organic and fun."

The Lucky One star is rumored to be dating Mirror Mirror's Lily Collins, 22, and he also says he notices a woman's lips first, "Because they smile, and they're fun to kiss."

And it doesn't take much to impress the teen heartthrob. "A woman called me interesting once, and it kind of blew my mind. She said, 'You're one of the most interesting people I've ever met,' and I was like, 'Wow.' I'm still high on that one."

But Efron admits he definitely takes him time when getting dressed up for a night on the town. "Sometimes I take a while to get ready to go out. It's not excessive, but it takes me some time to find clean clothes that match."



The hunky Zac Efron looked debonaire as he prepped for the red carpet at The Lucky One premiere Monday night in LA, with co-star Taylor Schilling by his side.

Zac's pal Ashley Tisdale turned out to support her friend, as did The Hills star Audrina Patridge, who shined in an all-white shorts ensemble.

Taylor wore a super hot Calvin Klein number, while Ashley looked cute in a bi-color, summery strapless dress.

In the film, Efron plays a marine, who travels to North Carolina after serving three tours in Iraq and searches for the unknown woman he believes was his good luck charm during the war. It's a romance that will have girls swooning over Zac in the lead role ... can't wait to see it!

Zac Efron covers the latest issue of Men's Health, and the 24-year-old heartthrob chats about getting in shape for his new movie, The Lucky One, where he plays U.S. Marine Logan Thibault.

Zac tells the mag, "Physically I started eating a lot. Eating through walls. Just eating and eating. That's all I'd do and I put on some weight that way. As far as the training goes, just trying different techniques and methods. It's one of the only concrete things that you can do to feel differently about a character. I didn't feel like a Marine. I didn't have the posture. I didn't feel like I had the presence and that was just one thing for me that I could do to really up that change."

Zac reveals that he gained 17 pounds for the role, but getting into character was about more than just his appearance. "When I went in to meet some of these guys, the sergeants, I was blown away. I was taller than most of the guys, but they were just thick, like there was something about them. They had a definite presence. Here I am, slouched over and I just smile a lot. I'm just always smiling. These guys were always serious. Honestly, it was one of the most awkward moments in my entire life."

The movie hits theaters on April 20 ... will you watch?

Zac Efron may have millions of female admirers, but the 24-year-old actor doesn't seem to think he lives up to the hype!

During an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Efron tells correspondent Tracy Smith, "I can't explain to you what it's like to be a heartthrob, [because] I don't think I am a heartthrob. I hate [that word]. I hate it. It follows you around, but you don't deserve it. It's like, 'Why?'"

Efron is currently promoting The Lucky One, which is a love story/drama about a Marine returning home from Iraq. And speaking of getting lucky, it seems like Efron has finally lived down the condom incident that occurred on the red carpet at the Lorax premiere last month ... but we still haven't!

Thankfully he didn't drop anything R-rated on the red carpet this time!

Looking sexy in a leather jacket and aviator sunglasses, Zac Efron stepped out to promote the animated flick The Lorax, in Madrid, Spain, on Saturday afternoon. Could he be any hotter?

The High School Musical star has just finished filming The Paperboy with Nicole Kidman and he says his character's love scenes with the Oscar winner were "the highlight of my life".

"Nicole is so gorgeous, everything you dream of," he said. "She was such a lovely person. I pinch myself every day especially after doing love scenes with Nicole Kidman. It was the highlight of my life. Nicole was something else."

Hear that, Keith Urban?
