“I’ve always cared about fashion and what I look like.”

Most people thought I was a dork. But if you have a sense of humor about it, no one can bring you down.

I’m a guy, but I’m not afraid to cry. Not all of the time. But when I’m watching a movie, I’ll sometimes shed a tear, especially ‘Moulin Rouge’.

I notice fashion on other people, I always enjoy it when people try and look their best,

I can’t handle the paparazzi. They’re everywhere. One of them was in a dumpster trying to take my photo the other day. It was crazy!

I’ve been doing musical theater since I was a kid. And look for a CD from me in the future. I want to write all the songs!

I’m the last one to get any moves correct. In rehearsals it’s always, ‘OK, one more take for Zac.’

A fan sent me a letter and a $10 bill.

It’s a short letter – all she said was, ‘Hey, since it’s harder for you to go out these days without getting photographed, here $10 for a pizza.’ I was like, ‘Aww, she sent me money for a pizza so I could eat at home!’

I wouldn’t just have other people write songs and me go out and sing it.

I can tell that fame is probably the most unadorable thing about acting.

I’ll never try to put on a fake image. I’m just Zac.

Honesty is most important, and it’s difficult when you’re young and single and sort of figuring out your own life.

My advice to teens is to try and do something that scares you every day because it’s the only way you can test how far you can really go.

I can’t explain to you what it’s like to be a heartthrob. I don’t think I am a heartthrob.

I’m looking for a life partner and I’m not ready. I’m not emotionally mature enough.

You don’t have goggles, so you can’t see anything.
