Hollywood hottie Zac Efron hopes to be known for his career and not for his personal life, reports contactmusic.com. He observes how his fellow young stars are judged and changes his behaviour based on this.

He said: "Every time something does happen – and I notice when those things happen – people go through those things and experience that kind of stuff. I take note of it, a mental note, 'Wow, that didn't work', so, from that point on I sort of look out for that. I kind of adapt."

Zac also revealed that is acting icon is Leonardo DiCaprio. "He's super talented and grounded and focused and that's everything I want to be in the future", Zac explained. “He's experienced the good times, the bad times, the scary times and the amazing times and [he's] still escalating. It gives me some hope. It inspires me to keep going."

We think you can go that far!
