I'm very competitive by nature. And I like to be the underdog - It's the best way to win. To come from behind and win is a great feeling!

Think on your toes, use what’s around you, and come up with something organic and fun.

We shot 'High School Musical' in eight weeks. I spent longer rehearsing for 'Hairspray' than filming 'High School Musical'.

I've been doing musical theater since I was a kid. And look for a CD from me in the future. I want to write all the songs!

Honestly, if the worst these people can say about me is that I'm gay, then I think I'll be fine. I can handle it.

I wouldn't just have other people write songs and me go out and sing it. I would sit down with a guitar and write 11 or 12 good songs for an album and that is gonna take a long time.

One time I went into a restroom and a girl followed me in. I signed an autograph for her in the sink. It was pretty funny because she was in a guy's restroom and she wasn't embarrassed at all.
