Zac Efron made the cut for People’s 100 Most Beautiful People. High School Musical co-star and and rumored girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens is one lucky gal!

Here’s the blurb from the People issue…

As the jock-with-an- artsy-side in High School Musical (and the sequel, out in August), Efron aces the swoon test.

HIS AWKWARD PAST “I was always the shortest kid in school. A really short, really skinny kid. Finally, I got bigger in my junior year [he’s 5′6″]. Plus, I had a juge gap in my teeth. I got teased more about my gap than anything else.”

BEST FEATURE NOW “Older women appreciate my eyes.”

I’m sure younger women appreciate them too…

A solo Victoria Beckham travels through London’s Heathrow Airport en route to Los Angeles on Saturday sans soccer star hubby David Beckham (There are no direct flights to Los Angeles from Madrid).

Vix will sign the contract on the family’s multi-million-dollar mansion in Beverly Hills this weekend.

Says a source close to the Beckhams: “The house is modern, airy, very light and spacious with lots of windows but it still needs a bit of work inside. The house they’ve chosen is big but not huge. That said, it is big enough for them as a family of five, along with additional space for family members that will visit from Britain. They needed a fair amount of extra room for visitors as [guests] will stay a while longer than [they did during] visits to them in Spain.”

The Beckhams are expected to move in mid-July, around the same time that Vix’s six-part reality TV series airs on NBC.
