Great advice comes from people that have been around a lot longer than you.

You always have something to learn from people who have been through more than you. Be open and receptive to what they know.

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

A lot of people ask: 'Will you play a psycho to really change your image and prove you can act?' But that's not what I'm about.

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

There are a lot of people who can slide on talent their whole lives; they're just naturally gifted. I've never considered myself one of those people. I enjoy outworking the opposition.
