Zac Efron, the 20-year old High School Musical heart-throb, is featured on the cover and inside the October 2008 issue of Teen Vogue in a photo shoot by the legendary Bruce Weber.
Efron was very happy to work with the master of the famous Abercrombie & Fitch catalog.
“I’m very lucky to work with Bruce,” Efron says. “He’s such an icon in the world of photography.”
In the accompanying interview, Efron talks about High School Musical 3, his coping with being famous at a young age, and his two upcoming movies “17 Again” and the period piece, “Me and Orson Welles.”
“I’m growing up under a magnifying glass, and I just try to rise above it and live my life,” explained Zac Efron of his struggle with fame. “You don’t realize until it’s gone, but it is so important to feel normal. I’m not going to complain. But it’s something I’m learning to cope with.”
