Have you gained insight into the psyches of teenage girls after working with Zac Efron?
No, but I have started wearing earplugs. I was nervous about the notion of working with a kid who’s on pillow cases — but he’s just phenomenally dreamy. And not just on the surface. He’s dreamy on the inside, too. Since every teenage girl will just be staring at Zac, did it free you up? That’s the nice thing about being the supporting character. Other than that you have to do less sit-ups. I just get to waddle into the scene in elf ears and make faces. You don’t seem to tone your weirdness down at all. Oftentimes you have to. But here I didn’t. Ben and I try to maintain our culty weirdness wherever we go. You’re known for ill-fitting outfits, like your Reno short shorts. Basically, my strategy is: Put on the most embarrassing, undignified, pathetic, weird-looking outfit that you can find and then try to act like you have a lot of integrity. You’ve been in those short shorts for six seasons now. Are you okay? You know Anthony Daniels, who played 3CP0? He had been wearing the 3CPO outfit
