Zac Efron Attacked By Middle Aged Fan

Last night, as he and his High School Musical castmates were leaving Josh Hartnett's performance, the West End stage adaptation of Rainman, Zac Efron was attacked by a crazed middle aged fan who lunged through the crowd of screaming tween fans outside London’s Apollo Theatre and tried to grab Zac-y Pooh’s hair.

Is someone trying to do some voodoo? Get a lock of his hair for some crazy Cupid spell or something?

The assailant, reportedly in his late 40’s, was left screaming all kinds of things as Efron and his girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens were hurried away by security.

Okay, we love Zac too, but that is just ridiculous. Kiss his poster at night before you go to bed clutching a High School Musical pillow while listening to Hairspray on repeat, but keep it in check. We don’t want another Rebecca Shaeffer-type incident. We thought the British were supposed to be civilized.
