Life in the spotlight has not been easy for Zac Efron and in the May 9th issue of The Hollywood Reporter, the 26-year-old hunk opens up about his struggles with addiction, owning up to his shortcomings and striving for greatness.
Efron explains, "No matter who you are, you face challenges growing up. You go with your things, you learn, you have to. It's impossible to lead an honest and fulfilling life as a man and not make mistakes and fess up to them when you need to. But it's especially humiliating when they happen to be so public and so scrutinized."
"When you have success young, and you accept the good things, you have to accept all of it. You have to accept the moments of glory but also a great responsibility. And that responsibility, to some degree, involves being a role model. At the same time, I'm a human being, and I've made a lot of mistakes. I've learned from each one."
The 'Neighbors' star laments "the struggles of dating, of falling in love, of searching for love and being there for your friends when they need you. There's no question that to receive anything great, like love or respect, or to better yourself, you have to give a piece of yourself away." Take a look behind-the-scenes of his photo shoot beneath:
