Budding bromance: Zac Efron and Tom Cruise

Zac and Tom? Best buds, apparently.

Zac not only got motorbike lessons from Tom, but often calls him for a chat too, reports the National Enquirer.

"Tom and Zac clicked the minute they met. Since then, the two stars have talked by phone several times a week," a source said.

"Zac is hungry to make the transition from teenage idol to movie superstar – and he's using Tom's career as a template for success. And Tom's using Zac because he's desperate to connect with a younger audience."

Nice to know it's a friendship based on cold ambition and not, say, a shared love of dentistry.

When you think about it, Zac is a bit like a young Tom Cruise.

He's pretty, he's kind of earnest in interviews and, while he's not as wee as Wee Tom, he's not what you might call tall.

So perhaps it's not surprising that he's turning to the older star for guidance as he navigates the perilous paths of celebdom.

And in 20 years' time, after a couple of failed marriages, perhaps Zac can hook up with Suri, thereby beautifully completing the circle of Efron/Cruise lurve.

Yes, we're incurable romantics here at Eleven.
