Ashley Tisdale Reveals Her Least Favorite Disney Movie & Talks Super Awkward Zac Efron Kiss

Ashley Tisdale is spilling all the tea!

In a new video, the Merry Happy Whatever actress dished on kissing Zac Efron, the Sprouse twins and more.

Ashley was asked which Disney movie or franchise was her least favorite and she answered Star Wars.

“I’m just not a Star Wars fan. When I was younger, I tried watching it and I fell asleep. I haven’t tried watching it since,” she said.

She was also asked which Sprouse twin – Cole or Dylan – she would take if she was stuck on a deserted, remote island for three weeks.

“You know, they’re both like my little brothers… You know who texts me back all the time? Dylan Sprouse. He’s the one who texts me back. Cole, sometimes silence, so I’m taking Dylan. That’s for just ghosting on me Cole,” Ashley said.

And finally, Ashley had to spill the deets on her worst on screen kiss, and it was with Zac!

“I had to kiss Zac Efron on The Suite Life of Zach and Cody, and it’s the worst because I’m so close to him and he’s like my brother. At the time, he was used to acting on Warner Bros, which is The CW, and we were on Disney Channel, and he tried kissing me with his tongue, and I was like, ‘Get away from me!’ I closed my mouth so fast. I was like, ‘This is Disney Channel! We don’t kiss like that on Disney Channel!’” Ashley shared. “It’s just weird when you’re so close to somebody. We had already done [High School Musical], I had known him for years before. That is why it was the worst. We are just too close.”

Zac Efron to Star in 'King of the Jungle' Inspired By A 'Wired' Magazine Article

Zac Efron is headed back to the big screen!

The 32-year-old actor is set to star in King Of The Jungle, according to Deadline.

The project is based on an article published in Condé Nast’s Wired magazine about the wild true story of rogue tech magnate John McAfee, creator of the McAfee Antivirus software, who cashed-in his fortune, left civilization and moved to the jungle in Belize. There, he set up a Colonel Kurtz-like compound of guns, sex and madness.

Zac will play journalist Ari Furman in the film, who accepts what he thinks is a run-of-the-mill assignment to interview McAfee, but once he arrives in Belize, he finds himself pulled into McAfee’s escalating paranoia, slippery reality and murder.

Glenn Ficarra and John Requa will direct.
