Singing lessons soon led to an appearance in the production of "Gypsy" and he was hooked.

Efron first garnered attention as as the star of the original High School Musical (2006) (TV), for which he won the Teen Choice Award for Breakout Star. He returned to the role of Troy Bolton in High School Musical 2 (2007) (TV), which broke cable TV records with 17.5 million viewers. His additional television credits include a role on the WB series "Summerland" (2004) and guest-starring roles on such shows as "Urgencias" (1994), "El guardián" (2001), "CSI: Miami" (2002) and "Navy: investigación criminal" (2003).

He starred in the title roles of the fantasy romance Siempre a mi lado (2010) and the comedy 17 otra vez (2009), both from director Burr Steers, and as the lovable Link Larkin in 2007's smash hit musical Hairspray (2007), directed by Adam Shankman. As part of the all-star cast he shared a Critics Choice Award for Best Acting Ensemble, the 2007 Hollywood Film Festival Award for Ensemble of the Year, and was honored with a Screen Actors Guild Award® nomination for Outstanding Motion Picture Cast. In addition, he won an MTV Movie Award for Breakthrough Performance.

Efron also starred in Richard Linklater's Me and Orson Welles (2008), an adaptation of the novel by Robert Kaplow, which premiered to rave reviews at the 2008 Toronto Film Festival.

In 2012, Efron took the lead in Cuando te encuentre (2012), a film adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel, playing a marine who returns to North Carolina after serving in Iraq in search for the unknown woman he believes was his good luck charm during the war. He also lent his voice to the animated feature Dr. Seuss' Lorax: En busca de la trúfula perdida (2012).

Vegan and Veg Celebrities (86 person items)

"The former teenage heartthrob has made major life changes in recent years, including transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle. He even credits veganism for his svelte physique: "That's completely changed the way that my body works, and the way that I metabolize food, the way it turns into energy, the way that I sleep. It's been brilliant. It’s been great for my exercise, and great for my routine," he told Teen Vogue."
