Zac Efron has gotten pretty adept at handling screaming, pre-pubescent girls, but the 20-year-old was understandably shook up when a star-struck, middle-aged man lunged at him earlier this week. (Shudder) Fans are a creepy lot by nature, but there’s absolutely nothing more deranged than a middle-aged man, frothing at the mouth, for a teeny-bopper boy. I’m getting pedophillic chills just thinking about it. This is how it happened:

He just reached over and grabbed the side of Zac’s head. There was no provocation. It all turned into a bit of a mess. He was shouting all kinds of things at Zac. Their security team eventually dealt with it. They had to bundle Zac into a car, but at one point it looked as though the man was going to be pushed into it with him.”

No worries, though. Zac reapplied his blush and mascara, chilled with his girlfriends at a Soho restaurant and “salsa danced” with all the hags in his crew. Alls well that ends well.
