Proof that you can always manage to be more gay, Zac Efron has declared his admiration of Daniel Radcliffe’s balls. Now Magazine has the scoop:

Zac Efron is impressed that Daniel Radcliffe has been baring all in stage play Equus.

The High School Musical 3 hero, 20, was rumoured to be replacing Dan, 19, in the Broadway version of the show next year.

But he’s not sure about getting naked - and admires the bravery of the Harry Potter star, who’s been appearing starkers and wowing audiences in the Big Apple since September.

‘Daniel was very ballsy,’ Zac tells a French website.

‘Oh wow, that is the wrong choice of word for that! He is very smart. But I don’t know if I would do something edgy for the sake of doing something edgy. I think as I mature, so will my roles. I think it will come with time. I’m not going to do anything drastic.’

Oh come on, Zac. You’re not foolin’ us none. Admit it–being a part of the visual and audio abomination that is High School Musical has caused your penis to shrink back in on itself and your groin to swallow your balls. Maybe if he isn’t willing to take off his pants, well, maybe he can just play the mount.

Although her play won’t officially open until October 16th, Katie Holmes began previews for her Broadway debut in All My Sons last night. On hand for Katie’s big night? A shitload of anti-Scientology protestors with masks and picket signs and presumably, a death wish. According to Us Weekly

Around 20 demonstrators (many in masks) staged a protest, shouting “Free Katie” and holding signs that screamed “How many more must die?” A demonstrator insisted, “We are not boycotting Katie, we are not boycotting the play - we are protesting Scientology. It is evil. Scientology kills people. It follows you home at night. It is perverted.”

But Holmes… seemed undeterred.

By “undeterred” they must have meant “stuck on autopilot.” I’m pretty sure it’s the only setting Katie’s allowed other than “ovulate” and “smile like you mean it.”
