Zac Efron honored with star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

On Monday, Zac Efron received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. At the public occasion, the actor gave a moving speech in which he acknowledged the distinction and showed his gratitude. When he brought up his late 17 Again co-star, the late Matthew Perry, who passed away in October at the age of 54, it was one of the highlights of the unforgettable occasion.

During the speech, he said that working with Matthew was so fun and really did motivate me in so many ways. He continued by saying thank you so much, Matthew, for pushing me into the next chapter of my profession. I'm missing him and thinking about him currently.

The crowd cheered and applauded, and the pleasant shoutout turned out to be bittersweet. In his address, Zac, who first gained recognition in the business as the lead in the 2006 movie High School Musical, also thanked his supporters and gave a reflection on his fruitful career. In addition, he spoke of his family, calling them his "first fans."


Only a few weeks have passed since it was revealed that Matthew intended for Zac to play him in his own biography. He declared his desire to film his life story.
