According to Celebuzz, Megan Fox went on a “date” with High School Musical’s Zac Efron Tuesday night. They went to Pace, “an upscale restaurant in Los Angeles’ woodsy Laurel Canyon neighborhood.” It can’t be that upscale if Megan Fox and Zac Efron were there, but nevermind that. There were a few rumors about Zac and Megan back in January, when someone somewhere saw the two of them in the same vicinity. After the rumors were spread, Megan was asked about her opinion on both Zac and Robert Pattinson. She told Elle UK, “Robert Pattinson and Zac – they’re just too pretty with the big hair and the suits. And Rob is, what, 22? Zac is 21? That’s a joke. Boys in their twenties are a waste of time. They have nothing to offer conversationally; they’re immature. I feel like I have a better shot with someone in his thirties.” Looks like Megan has changed her mind, if this “date” is any indication:

Did Megan Fox just go on her ultimate dream date?

The 23-year-old stunner shared an intimate dinner with Zac Efron on Tuesday night at Pace, an upscale restaurant in Los Angeles’ woodsy Laurel Canyon neighborhood, Celebuzz can exclusively report.

A fellow diner revealed, “They were very friendly and their faces were close when they talked.”

It’s no secret that the Transformers 2 actress has had a thing for the 21-year-old High School Musical heartthrob for quite some time. As we reported back in January, the two flirted at the Golden Globe Awards, raising eyebrows at an after-party.

Megan has even said, “What you don’t know is that Zac and I are the same person. It’s like Janet and Michael [Jackson], we are the same person.”

Was this just a dinner between two mega-hot friends? Or something more complicated?
It could be much trickier for him than for her.

Megan, for one, insists that she’s absolutely unattached, while rumors continue to swirl that the undeniably sexy actress is dating co-star Shia LaBeouf or possibly still together with ex-fiance Brain Austin Green. Zac, on the other hand, is pretty serious with long-time girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens.

Yeah, in the past few weeks Megan has been photographed in a series of faux-seductive poses or “candid” paparazzi shots with Shia and Brian. Many think that Megan was just doing the Shia stuff for Transformers promotion. Some thought that she was probably nailing both Brian and Shia. And now Zac? It’s too obvious. Even “Bob Hollywood” over at Vanity Fair is calling Megan’s play “the oldest trick in the Hollywood book”, and no, he’s not calling Megan a prostitute:

At the London premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Ms. Fox (who really sets off my wow-meter, let me tell you) denied being romantically involved with Robert Pattinson. A few nights later, she supped with co-star Shia ‘Don’t Call Me Sleepy’ LaBeouf at Nobu in Manhattan, fueling intense speculation about her love life.

Boy oh boy! This is the oldest trick in the Hollywood book. I feel like I’m back in the days of Hy Gardner, Hedda Hopper, and Louella Parsons! This is how the old studio bosses used to do it. You promote a picture by sending your leading lady out on a “date.” You have her deny something that wasn’t even a rumor to begin with—making sure that the thing she is denying involves another rising star. And you make double extra certain that the tabloids are there to drink it all in.

Frankly, I’m sick of it! Sick of being used! O.K., I’m not really sick of it. I don’t really care, in fact. This is how the game is played. And for all I know, Megan and Shia are enjoying a nice roll in the hay right now in some Malibu bungalow. Which is their right. Hell, I know I would do the other one, if I were either one of them, if that makes any sense.

So, basically Megan is still with that loser Brian Austin Green, who doesn’t mind that his girlfriend is pretending to “date” or “bang” multiple guys to promote her movie. Who is the joke on exactly? Oh, right. Us.
