Zac Efron raves about the Philippines on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’


It’s one thing for Zac Efron to say that he loves it in the Philippines while still being in the Philippines. That’s simply good public relations.

But when he still keeps saying the same thing on American national television on no less than the top-rated “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” that is more than public relations, it’s genuine affection.

In the video of the interview segment posted on YouTube by “The Ellen Show” on October 3 (October 4 Manila time), a very animated and visibly excited Zac talked about his recent trip here, particularly his memorable stop at Legaspi City in Albay that preceded his Penshoppe fan conference last Saturday.

“We had lunch on top of a volcano!” Zac exclaimed as he recalled his trip to Mayon Volcano, which his group explored via a helicopter and the all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) used to guide visiting tourists in the area.











The most surprising thing for the sensational young actor best known for his breakout role as campus heartthrob Troy Bolton in Disney’s “High School Musical” franchise, however, was not finding himself on “top” of an active volcano but being recognized by Bicolana natives in the area.

“It was two super cute little girls that just showed up. I couldn’t believe it. We hadn’t seen a face in like 30 miles and we’re on the ATVs and out of nowhere, they just come running out, jumping and screaming,” he recalled.

The “two super cute girls” did what thousands of young girls failed to do during Zac’s Penshoppe Fan Conference that took place last Saturday before he left the country – see their idol up close and have their photos taken with him.

Because of the video and subsequent fan reaction, Zac Efron is again a trending topic on Twitter.
