Behind the Scenes of Zac Efron’s FunnyorDie Clip

Who’s hungry for a big ol’plate of awesome?

At yesterday’s press junket for 17 Again, Adam Shankman, who produced the film, announced the FunnyorDie clip he directed last week, yes, the one that features oodles of shirtless Zac-y Pooh, is set to premiere on the website Wednesday and will be shown before 17 Again when it hits theaters on April 17th.

The sketch is about Zac throwing a pool party that is, essentially, “an issue of Us Weekly,” with guests including Vanessa Hudgens, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Nicole's ex, Brody Jenner (discussing the AIG bailout), Carmen Electra (who’s an extra), Brittany Snow, Lance Bass (random, but bitchin’), Justin Long (who dies in the pool) and Queen Latifah doing DJ duty.

As if the prospect of Brody pontificating on AIG and Zac topless weren’t entertaining enough, then Zac’s NASCAR lovin’ Uncle Hank (played by Thomas Lennon) and his girlfriend (Nicole Sullivan) show up and hilarity ensues. 

The photo from their brainstorm session last week is brillz.

Lance Bass’ hair is on fire!

And look at how Vanessa curls into Zac as they hold hands with such absent minded nonchalance. Sigh.

We can't wait for Wednesday.
