Does Zac Efron Still Have "It" in a Post-Rob Pattinson World?
E! Online, Feb 5, 2009 3:47 pm PSTWith all the Twilight/Edward Cullen/Rob Pattinson craziness, we kinda forgot about that other teen idol who's not a sparkling vampire.
It must be rough for Zac Efron going from Troy Bolton—tween charmer and No. 1 Basketball Player in the World—to placing second after the magical-haired, English-accented dreaminess that is Rob Pattz.
But somehow Zac is finding the strength to carry on despite his slightly fallen teen-dream status, as evident here in his brand new 17 Again poster.
Sure, Rob already did the cool dude with the sunglasses and jacket thing a little better, but we owe Zac a chance to prove he was there spreading adolescent joy and happiness long before Twilight and its Hot Topic emo-ness.
