The Traitors fans ‘screaming’ after Zac Efron somehow gets pulled into blazing row
A star on The Traitors US has brutally declared Zac Efron is ‘not a good actor’ during a roundtable discussion.
The third season of the American series is currently airing, with some of the celebrity cast including Selling Sunset’s Chrishell Stause, Lord Ivar Mountbatten and Britney Spears’ ex-husband Sam Asghari.
The famous faces haven’t been holding back when trying to determine who the Traitors are during banishments, however High School Musical star Zac unintentionally found himself dragged into one argument on the most recent episode.
The actor’s brother Dylan, best known for appearing on the documentary Down to Earth with Zac Efron, was suspicious on the very first episode that RuPaul’s Drag Race star Bob the Drag Queen was deceiving them about his role in the game.
Despite Dylan being on the money, Bob the Drag Queen, 38, called Dylan, 32, ‘misguided’, however on the fourth episode others also started to question whether he was a Faithful.
After Survivor star Rob Mariano, himself also a Traitor, encouraged Dylan to go for the Drag Race star, he didn’t hold back.
‘I genuinely think you’re a Traitor. Like what’s the easier game for a Traitor to play? Yes, I would play a very quiet one because I can’t be boisterous. What would Bob do? Bob is an amazing actor. I grew up with an actor,’ he said during the roundtable.

But snapping back, Bob the Drag Queen declared: ‘Not a good one.’
As Dylan looked taken aback, The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Dolores Catania jumped in and said the comment ‘wasn’t nice’.
Viewers were also left gobsmacked by the personal attack.
‘Screamed at everyone getting offended at Bob’s drag of Zac Efron because that would’ve been me too,’ user M8keitm8kes3sne posted on Reddit.
‘I literally stood up from my sofa when he said that,’ tallywashere shared.
‘That was so unkind from BTDQ. I know he was feeling emotional but definitely unnecessary,’ Cisco added.
Later in the episode, after they banished the Drag Queen star, she added: ‘Good job, Dylan. And listen, your brother is a good actor.’
During the roundtable Bob the Drag Queen said he ‘swore to God’ he was a Faithful. But as he left the castle, he added: ‘I don’t believe in God: I’m a Traitor.’
Zac, 37, rose to fame starring in the Disney Channel movie series High School Musical, going on to appear in Hairspray, 17 Again, Baywatch and The Greatest Showman.
Meanwhile his younger brother has worked behind-the-scenes as a producer and stuntman.
Last year Zac told E! News he believed his brother could win The Traitors.
‘I hope he does, because he’s so good at games. He always has been, since we were kids. He’s like the game master. … If anyone can do this, it’s him. I’m rooting for him,’ he said.
