A lot of people ask: 'Will you play a psycho to really change your image and prove you can act?' But that's not what I'm about.
There are a lot of people who can slide on talent their whole lives; they're just naturally gifted. I've never considered myself one of those people. I enjoy outworking the opposition.
You always have something to learn from people who have been through more than you. Be open and receptive to what they know.
I notice fashion on other people, I always enjoy it when people try and look their best, I've always been taught to try and look my best and that's probably my main influence, I'm not looking to influence fashion anymore than the next guy, but I do try and look my best when I'm out and representing my movies.
I notice people that look good.
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 connect with people on a daily basis.
Jesse McCartney is one of the nicest people around. I hate when I hear bad things about him, because anyone who knows him would agree that he's a good guy and really humble.
I'll never try to put on a fake image. I'm just Zac.
Great advice comes from people that have been around a lot longer than you.
I think if you're fame-hungry, go out to a nightclub and get drunk... why do that? I don't understand how some people would want fame so bad that they'd go out and get negative attention to earn it.
Honestly, if the worst these people can say about me is that I'm gay, then I think I'll be fine. I can handle it.
I wore goofy hats to school and did musical theater. Most people thought I was a dork. But if you have a sense of humor about it, no one can bring you down.
If there's a party and they won't let my friends in, I'd leave. No question.
