Zac Efron's break-up threat over Xbox

Girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens annoyed by gaming obsession
High School Musical pretty boy, Zac Efron risks being dumped by co-star girlfriend, Vanessa Hudgens because videogames have "taken over his life", according to reports.

Fellow HSM star Hudgens has reportedly threatened to dump her actor boyfriend if he doesn't stop playing the stash of Xbox 360 games she gifted him for Christmas.

A source told Contact Music: "Vanessa has hardly seen him. He talks more to his friends online while blasting away at aliens or whatever, than to her.

"Vanessa has even tried joining in but her boredom threshold is a lot shorter than Zac's. She's on the verge of saying, 'It's either me or the Xbox.'"

Efron is the second celebrity lover to come under fire for his gaming habits, after Tennis ace Andy Murray was dumped by his girlfriend for playing Modern Warfare 2 for seven hours a day.

But as one reader so aptly put it on that case, "she may be fit, but Modern Warfare 2 is much better."

f**k off Hudgens, your "career" wouldn't survive without Effron anyway, lol.
burnsyboy2004 on 4 Jan '10
Who bought it in the first place? That's right, she's only got one person to blame.
altitude2k on 4 Jan '10
More to the point, who cares?
iainbyoung on 4 Jan '10
i gotta be honest id rather be playing with her than playing MW2.

Maybe, but you're gonna need something to do in between sessions as well. It's not like they have real jobs to go to or anything Smile
Dajmin on 4 Jan '10
But it's ok for her to watch endless soaps on telly.

He's only with her for one thing and that isn't his Xbox. It's her Xbox!
bazzatuk on 4 Jan '10
OMG!!! Liek this seemingly insignificant piece of news about Zac Efron, which has a tenuous link at best to gaming has changed the way I think about everything!

Have I stumbled onto heat's website? What's next? Robert Pattison seen looking at a copy of MW2 in Tesco? The fact that i even know these names shames me.

My thoughts exactly Laughing
dark_gamer on 4 Jan '10
Ahh..news so slow it HAS to the beginning of January.

Efron HAS to gay to ignore THAT piece of ass.

Someone with the name KratosFenix feels shame at something besides his username?

Man why would he date her? She may be fit for loser WoW players who dont leave their rooms but for everyone else I think shes a 6 at best, with lots of beer.

Anyways High School Musical is gay so hope 1 of them gets aids and passes it on.

I agree with you that she doesn't seem that hot; she's pretty enough but doesn't set any bells ringing on my end.

As for the "...hope 1 of them gets aids and passes it on," that's not cool.

Female logic makes it impossible to accept this... my other half bought my 360 for me and she refuses to take any blame for my gaming habit.

Shut up, woman!

Leave the man playing his videogame alone!

Is it me or does he look about 50 in that photo? Why am I back here AAAAAAH!
The Kool Kid on 4 Jan '10
Hmmmm, Pretty Girl or xbox 360, pretty girl or xbox 360... Oh wait I'm rich, famous and (without meaning to sound homosexual) handsome, Hot chicks form a line after I'm done with this round of S' 'n' D' it's your turn for TLC.

"she may be fit, but Modern Warfare 2 is much better."

the guy who said this clearly hasn't had a girlfriend, been laid or stepped outside his house since the game is out. i never play it any more. it isnt boring, i just have an education and other games that i have got since then. playing video games instead of spending time with your girlfriend is just low, no matter how fit they are. if they were like vanessa hudgens wouldnt u stop playing games? or megan fox. dear god i would stop for her

huh? I couldn't make sense of that.
Sleepaphobic on 5 Jan '10
Another woman trying to take away a guys' right to be a kid. She doesn't have many friends is possibly the most realistic reason, and she'll blame that on her being too pretty or some other conceited excuse.
Playing games is fun, she's obviously getting time, she just probably wants more than he can care to give. How old is Hudgens anyway? Young broads are notoriously clingy, ugh. Women get more confident with age, clingy, whiny and low self esteem slowly make way for confident and caring and self reliant. Zac, kick her to the curb if she gets too annoying, trust me if she's annoying you now, she'll only get worse. Once she gets away with it now, she'll ride it till the wheels fall off.
