But Zac Efron wtf!?

So AIBU in thinking Zac Efron would have made a better Ken in the Barbie movie (no offence to Gosling, I bloody love Gosling)

But wtf Zac! What have you done to your absolutely beautiful, didn't-need-changing face!?

Sat watching Family Affair on Netflix and he's barely recognisable! Only his mouth moves. Everything else is frozen/botoxed. Even his lips look like they've had fillers... he's 36!!!

I accept Nicole Kidman's work at almost 60 fair enough. But why has Zac felt the need to freeze his already beautiful face?! 😫
It's putting me off watching the film

I think he had surgery to repair a jaw injury. It's not just botox

He did actually break his jaw in an accident-but has undoubtedly had some plastic surgery as well.

He had an accident where he slid into a marble fountain and it completely smashed his jaw and he had surgery to rebuild it.

Ach don’t worry. You didn’t know.

i still wouldn’t kick him out the bed for farting

Luminousalumnus · 07/07/2024 22:34

No don't feel bad op. He's had a lot more done than just the jaw.

Holluschickie · 07/07/2024 22:34

I can't watch Nicole in anything any more.

Yes OP don’t feel bad. He’s clearly been ‘marbled’ in more ways than one.

SummaLuvin · 07/07/2024 22:48

Yeah OP, don’t feel bad, crack on making comments and judgments about a strangers physical appearance because you don’t like how they look now…

Oh lighten up, Zac Efron wouldn’t be famous if it weren’t for his looks. Get real

ScoobyG · 07/07/2024 22:51

The jaw injury story was going around while before he appeared looking so different. Apparently, he wanted to look more buff and masculine, get different roles, and superhero type stuff. He had the surgery, filler etc then covered it up with the 'marble fountain' injury story.

Oooh chill out @SummaLuvin! OP wasn’t being particularly nasty or personal.

I felt bad laughing at this

pandasorous · 07/07/2024 23:13

I didn't even recognise him.

he had a beautiful face... now just looks generic

RainintheDesert · 07/07/2024 23:18

His surgeries and Nicole's surgeries were very distracting in that film. I'm not normally so shallow, but the terrible script and ick-factor in that film didn't help. I lasted 39 minutes before switching off, which is a shame because Joey King was quite good. I hope I see her in more stuff.

autienotnaughty · 07/07/2024 23:19

Yeah Joey king is funny. But the film isn't great.

Exactly - it's like when celebrities get a nose job and put out the old 'deviated septum' story.

EKnaring · 07/07/2024 23:20

I’d say it’s a mixture of jaw surgery following the accident, some botox, ageing and after-effects of getting hench for The Iron Claw

Lellochip · 07/07/2024 23:20

His accident was in 2013 🤔

Show quote history

Yes she was being nasty…

what a dreadful, tasteless thread.

yuck.

Holluschickie · 07/07/2024 23:26

I think if an actor gets so much work that they can't act, its perfectly ok to notice it.
