Zac Efron Gets Some Advice

March 31, 2009 | by Disney Dreaming

Zac Efron has received some very helpful advice on his career from actor Leonardo DiCaprio. Leo told Zac to stay away from drugs if he didn’t want to ruin his career, stating,“It was kind of his way-out-the-door, last-minute advice. He said, ‘Oh, by the way, if you really want to mess this all up, try heroin,’” Zac recalled his meeting with Leo. “I said, ‘Thanks’, and he said, ‘No, seriously, that’s pretty much the only way you’re going to screw this up, and you shouldn’t go down that road – it will mess you up without fail. Do not do drugs. That was enough for me, that’s all I needed to hear.”

Zac blames his responsible nature on his parents good teachings, “I could never get into trouble like the rest of my friends. My parents were very strict and taught me good values, whenever I did anything wrong my mom would somehow know it. I started skateboarding as a kid – it’s like surfing on the sidewalk. I love it. It’s a Zen thing, so much better than walking. It’s almost spiritual.”

We would have never pictured Zac as a skater boy! Hot!!!
