Zac Efron Throws Vanessa Hudgens a Surprise 21st Birthday Party

Zac invites Vanessa's celebrity friends, including Ashley Tisdale, Selena Gomez, Brittany Snow, and Corbin Bleu, to the party held at East Restaurant & Lounge in Hollywood.

Acting as a good boyfriend for his leading lady Vanessa Hudgens, Zac Efron threw a surprise party on Monday night, December 14 to help celebrating her 21st birthday. Held at East Restaurant & Lounge in Hollywood, the bash was attended by the birthday girl's celebrity friends, including the likes of Ashley Tisdale, Selena Gomez, Brittany Snow, and Corbin Bleu. Besides, "High School Musical" director Kenny Ortega and Vanessa's songwriting team Tim James and Antonina Armato were also present. There were about 100 of her closest friends in attendance, People reports.

Vanessa, who arrived at the venue in a chauffeured Audi Q7 with Zac, wasn't aware about the surprise until she walked inside. She "was completely surprised!" says a guest at the party. Inside the bash, Zac gave a heartfelt speech, wishing Vanessa a very happy birthday and encouraging guests to have fun. Partygoers were treated to East signature dishes including the crab cakes and scallops on the half shell. "Zac and Vanessa were adorable together," another guest tells People. "They were smiling at each other and laughing and are really sweet to each other. Great couple."

About an hour into the party, Vanessa was presented with red velvet birthday cake. "After she blew out the candles she made a sincere speech thanking everyone again and expressing her love for her family and friends," a source tells E! News. "Then the DJ spun Kid Cudi's remix of 'Poker Face' and Vanessa danced with her friends." Zac reportedly gave Vanessa a brand-new, high-tech digital camera as a birthday present.
