Zac Efron Tours Europe for “The Lucky One” Premiere
When Zac Efron showed up at the European premiere of his latest film "The Lucky One" on April 23, he was wearing a flesh colored bandage on his left hand. When reporters asked him about the injury, he smiled and replied, "A fan bit me."

Efron reportedly gained 18 pounds of muscle for his new movie role. He actor admitted that he did not recognize himself.
He told Men's Health magazine, "By the end of the movie I didn't recognise myself. You hear about guys like Christian Bale who dive into it and are really able to transform. I've always wondered if I had the willpower to actually do it. And I'll always have pride around the sense that I can."
