Heading off to the Toronto Film Festival, Zac Efron was spotted at LAX taking a flight to Canada from Los Angeles on Thursday (September 4).

The Disney hunk sported a striped v-neck t-shirt with jeans, sneakers and a beanie as he smilingly entered the airport and made his way past security.

In related news, Efron recently spoke out about growing famous through his role in the three movie series “High School Musical”.

The 20-year-old actor calls the experience bittersweet, saying: "You don't realize until it's gone, but it is so important to feel normal. I'm growing up under a magnifying glass, and I just try to rise above it and live my life. I'm not going to complain. But it's something I'm learning to cope with."

Efron will star in the third and final part of the “High School Musical” series later this year. He plays a high school senior named Troy in the movie, alongside his co star and real life girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens.

Of his character, Efron says: "The stakes are higher because there are real decisions to be made. What college are you going to? What happens to the girl? It's fun watching Troy grow into a man!"

Along with HSM, Zac is also set to appear in two other box office releases, 17 Again, with Matthew Perry, and Me and Orson Welles, which is described as a period film.

Beyonce Knowles is well known for her smoking hot body and her “bootylicious” behind. But Miss Knowles recently got a break from the gym, as she had to pack on the pounds for her role in the upcoming movie "Cadillac Records".

Interestingly enough, the "Irreplaceable" singer told press that she had to gain twenty pounds to play the role of Etta James in her new flick.

Beyonce spoke of the weight gaining process saying it "was so much fun" but adds that she had difficulty losing the weight for her next role in the psychological thriller Obsessed, saying: "I was so angry with myself. I was like, 'D'oh! Why do you have to go through this?'”The diva says that she limits her diet "No chips, no candy, no desserts, no junk food, no fried food."

Knowles, whose 27th birthday is today (September 4), also mentioned her onstage alter ego, Sasha, adding that when she's onstage she does things she doesn’t normally do. “I have out-of-body experiences. If I cut my leg, if I fall, I don't even feel it. I'm so fearless, I'm not aware of my face or my body."

As for the rest of her music career, “I'm over being a pop star," she says. "I don't wanna be a hot girl. I wanna be iconic. And I feel like I've accomplished a lot. I feel like I'm highly respected, which is more important than any award or any amount of records. I feel like there comes a point when being a pop star is not enough. I am really proud that I am one of the artists that has the opportunity to be on magazine covers and to be in the movies. And I do think that I'm opening doors for more black women, just like Halle Berry and Diana Ross opened doors for me."

According to sources, Miley plunked down a cool $75,000 for the fully-loaded luxury sports car. And she got it customized to fit her needs. "Miley wanted special options like parking assist and a cream-colored leather interior, so she ordered the car early. She's telling everyone that she hopes to get a car when she turns 16, so when it comes, she can say it was a surprise from her parents."

Cyrus recently told press, "I definitely want to get something bad on the road, big enough for all my friends and to scare all the cars away from me. I'm a good driver but it's everyone else that I'm worried about!"

Jessica Simpson Opens Up

Jessica Simpson Opens Up

Maintaining her busy schedule, Jessica Simpson was spotted hitting up a local tanning salon before departing on a plane at the Burbank Airport yesterday (September 3).

And recently, the “Come On Over” songstress put her life on pause to talk to FOX Pop Tarts’ Hollie McKay about some of the content on her upcoming album “Do You Know.”

Regarding the track “Remember That,” Jess revealed, "It was one of those moments that just moved me to tears — it's empowering. It's about that woman really standing up for herself in an abusive situation whether it is mental, physical, emotional. Everybody has dealt with abuse in some sort of way."

Miss Simpson continued, "I thought it was important to tell women to take their heart and run as fast as they can if they're in that situation, because you're better than that."

Speaking of abuse, the “With You” singer also spoke about the beating she’s been taking from the media. "I am a very open person, but how the media is these days makes it hard. Unfortunately people want to believe bad stuff and I just don't understand that — sometimes it is like a personal attack. It's a challenge for me to act like it's just part of my career. If they knew your heart, they wouldn't be talking about you like this."


Kirsten Dunst: Out in Hollywood

Kirsten Dunst: Out in Hollywood

She’s been lying pretty low lately, but yesterday Kirsten Dunst was spotted out and about in Hollywood, California, enjoying some time with a gal pal.

It was a social afternoon for the “Spider-Man” babe, as she was later seen walking her dog on the way to lunch with a group of friends.

And Kirsten looked classy in a short black dress along with a pair of black flats, later changing into a more casual green t-shirt dress with brown sandals.

In related news, Miss Dunst recently got author Toby Young (the writer of the novel ‘How to Lose Friends and Alienate People) banned from the set of her new movie, based on his book.

Young told press, "She overheard me giving the producer a ‘note’ on her performance in a particular scene. At the time, I didn't think of it as a criticism, more as a helpful bit of advice, and the producer took it in that spirit.”

He continued, "But Kirsten overheard this exchange and interpreted it as a complaint about her acting ability. It was after this, apparently, that she took Bob (Weide, the director) to one side and asked if I could be kept at arm’s length in future.”

"Bob carried out this edict with a good deal of tact. I didn't realize it, but this was, in effect, Bob carrying out Kirsten’s instructions."

She blasted onto the world’s pop music scene with her scandalous hit “I Kissed a Girl,” and now Katy Perry is hoping to make lightening strike twice with her new single.

Sporting a white spaghetti strap tank top and belted high-waisted white shorts teamed with a pair of pink flats, Perry was spotted gallivanting around Los Angeles as she shot her new video for “Hot N Cold.”

As for the rumors that she threatened to pull her performance from this Sunday’s MTV Video Music awards because she wasn’t chosen as the opening act, Katy says that’s not the case.

The New York Post reported that Perry was heard “complaining that she wasn’t asked to open at the VMAs because her song is too provocative.” But her rep told press that she was “overheard incorrectly,” and that she will be performing at the show.
