Zac Efron Reveals His Foolproof Pick-Up Line

I wonder if Zac Efron started getting used to all the attention I’ve been giving him for the past couple of weeks, then figured out that my heart was leaning more towards Josh Hutcherson and decided to step up his game. He’s probably figured out the way to my heart (precious faces and dogs, obviously) and made it his mission to woo me back. That’s probably what happened here, right? Please just let me have this.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter if I’m right or wrong (but really, I’m right, aren’t I?), because the result is the same: Zac Efron did a little interview with Women’s Health, for whatever reason. Here’s how that went:

1. You play a marine in your new movie—badass! Got any girlie qualities?
Sometimes I take a while to get ready to go out. It’s not excessive, but it takes me some time to find clean clothes that match.

2. You see a beautiful woman. How do you approach her?
“So do you like High School Musical?” I’m kidding! If the situation’s right, buy someone a drink. Think on your toes, use what’s around you, and come up with something organic and fun.

3. Telltale signs a first date is going well?
I think when it ends up going on longer than planned… and you don’t even realize it. You don’t want it to end.

4. What makes someone marriage material?
A sense of ambition and a sense of freedom, which is a careful mix. You have to balance those two. I haven’t exactly found it yet.

5. What’s the best compliment you’ve received?
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’m still high on that one.

Fast Talk
Hidden talent?
I can draw really well. And I like to paint. I’m a bit of an artist.

Biggest regret?
Not going to college.

Favorite female body part?
Lips. Because they smile. And they’re fun to kiss.

Last thing you bought yourself?
A Butterfly table-tennis paddle.

Go-to drink order?
Green tea or Stella on tap.

Shower song?
Anything by the Beach Boys.

And as if all that wasn’t enough, he also took the time to post a picture from Christmas of his dog, Puppy, being adorable:

Take notes, Josh Hutcherson. This is how it’s done (really, please just let me pretend).
