Zac Efron is burning up movie screens in Charlie St. Cloud, and now he's burning up our computer screens with this sexy new cover shoot for Details magazine and the accompanying interview in which he talks about his un-Hollywood relationship with Vanessa Hudgens and his date with Tom Cruise!

Despite getting pressure from friends to play the Hollywood field, Zac seems content to hang at home with his girlfriend of four years, Vanessa Hudgens. "It’s exactly how it should be. It’s real," Efron says.

But even though he's not wanting to date around, he did accept a date from one of the most famous celebs on the planet: Tom Cruise.

The two met in very Hollywood fashion -- in the lobby of their agents' office. Tom approached Zac, asking, "You ride motorcycles?” When Efron said no, Tom asked, “You wanna learn how?” That's when Cruise invited Zac over to teach him how an engine works and show off his extensive collection of bikes, including the Triumphs he rode in the Mission:Impossible movies. When asked why he thought Cruise did that, Efron said: “I don’t even want to know. It’s just so cool that he gave a sh*t, the fact that he cared at all. No one else did that.”
