Not too long ago, news broke that Zac Efron had finished a stint in rehab that shocked the world since the “High School Musical” heartthrob seemed like the perfect guy you would introduce to your parents. Hard to believe, but he reportedly was battling a cocaine addiction. Now, the world has learned that his troubles with drugs are far more serious than people thought, and his friends fear for his life and are concerned that he will end up dead like Cory Monteith.
Efron’s friends say he has been in a bad place for quite some time, and they fear he could relapse and overdose, causing a death similar to the Glee actor. “Zac had been on a downward spiral since 2011, he was just good at hiding it and not getting caught,” a source said. However, what caused the actor to take a step back and submit himself to a rehab facility was a party at NYC’s Thompson Hotel. According to Perez Hilton, Zac collapsed in January from a supposed heroin overdose while partying in his hotel suite.
A source who allegedly was at the party said that the “Hairspray” actor had to be resuscitated by friends after passing out due to popping the painkiller oxycodone, also known as “hillbilly heroin,” along with Adderall and weed. The eyewitness reportedly said: "I was scared for him. If he doesn’t clean himself up, he’ll be Hollywood’s next big drug tragedy.” The actor reportedly asked his party guests to buy 40 pills from the streets at a whopping $1,200, and he wouldn’t let them in until they had them.
“If he didn’t have such a need for the oxy, I don’t think he would have let us come into the room,” the source continued. “He was like a junkie. He wanted the drugs so bad, and this was the only way he could get them.” The insider later added, “He went through a lot of pills even though it was clear he was entering a danger zone.” The eyewitness noted that the actor later disappeared into the bedroom with a brunette who later told the source “they had sex.” The National Enquirer claims they have the photo of the actor almost dead after overdosing.
That was truly a scary situation. Thankfully, Zac has been looking great at his recent public appearances and we hope he continues being healthy and doesn’t relapse!
