Zac Efron will be honoured as the ShoWest breakthrough performer of the year in Las Vegas in April!

ShoWest managing director Mitch Neuhauser says that the High School Musical star was an easy choice this year, “When Zac Efron made his debut with the cast of Hairspray at ShoWest 2007, many in attendance took notice of this young actor’s incredible talent. His undeniable onscreen presence and charm have connected with fans around the world.”

Zac recently revealed to Family Circle that he considered himself just average in high school. “I had a lot of friends but I was not in that ultra cool circle. I was a bit of a class clown. I guess to get through the tedium of the quadratic formula, I thought everyone was fair game.”

He added, “Between self-discovery and the social hierarchy, high school can be the most confusing time of your life.”

Miley Cyrus looks fabulous as she walks the red carpet at the Grammy Arrivals in a single-shoulder black Herve Leger gown with a rose accent.

Taylor Swift told E!Online how it came to be that she and Miley would be singing on stage together tonight. “They always sort of suggest that you present them with a collaboration that you think makes sense. So Miley and I had always been talking about ‘When can we sing together? It would be so cool to sing together.’ So we came to the Grammys and said, ‘What about this song, “Fifteen”? It really applies to us.’”

Taylor Swift poses on the red carpet at the Grammy Arrivals looking stunning in a long, backless, black Kaufman Franco gown with her hair in a low updo.

Taylor admitted to MTV News that she was a bundle of nerves last night! The only thing that calmed her down was the fact that she’ll have her friend, Miley Cyrus, by her side.

“We’re friends, so anytime I’m performing with her, my nerves go away, ’cause she’s always trying to make me laugh or is doing something ridiculous,” Taylor said. “It’s so fun to get up there with one of your friends and get to perform on the Grammys.”

“I can’t believe I get to do this,” she continued. “You walk around and you see all the people here, and to be invited to the Grammys to perform is unreal. I can’t believe it.”

There are two people that Taylor hopes to meet tonight. “I would love to meet Adele, and I would love to meet M.I.A.,” she said. “I’ve also heard that Adele is really nice, so I would love to walk up to her and say hi.”
