The 24-year-old, who has previously dated Vanessa Hudgens and Lily Collins, is happy to embrace his gay fanbase and does not worry if people question his own sexuality in the process.

“It’s very flattering. After ‘High School Musical‘ and ‘Hairspray‘, I’ve always felt embraced by the gay community, and I feel incredibly grateful,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted Efron as saying.

“I don’t like to live in fear about things like rumours and backlash to begin with – that’s the way I was raised – but I just can’t see what’s so wrong about being gay,” he added.
