Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Zac Efron thanking Kenny Ortega as they reunited goes viral.
Some of Efron’s “HSM” family was also there, with director Kenny Ortega and producer Bill Borden in the audience.
“You guys were both instrumental in giving me my start in ‘High School Musical.’ And for that, I’m just eternally, eternally grateful. You have no idea. I still think about it every day,” Efron said in a speech ahead of his star’s unveiling.
He joked, “I sing the songs in the shower. Go Wildcats.”
After “High School Musical,” Efron went on to star in other popular films, including “17 Again,” alongside Matthew Perry, and “The Greatest Showman” with Hugh Jackman and Zendaya.
Efron’s upcoming film, “The Iron Claw,” is set to be released on December 22. The sports drama is based on the true story of the Von Erich brothers, a famous professional wrestling family in the ’80s.
Efron’s star on Hollywood Boulevard was “overdue in my opinion,” Teller told the crowd.
The two first met in 2012 while filming “That Awkward Moment,” which Teller quipped wasn’t a box-office hit.
All jokes aside, “You are my friend and running mate. You are the man, the myth, the legend that is Zac Efron, baby,” Teller said. “For my generation, our generation, Zac was and is the first true superstar to really come out of our class.”
