Zac Efron comes out in rash after gardening

Zac Efron came down with a nasty rash after trying to do his own gardening! The High School Musical hunk decided to clear some brush on a hillside next to his Hollywood Hills home and ended up having an allergic reaction to some poisonous oak.

“Zac doesn’t mind physical labor and he likes to save money where he can,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer. “But this time it ended up backfiring on him — big-time!

“He was sweating like crazy and pulled his shirt off at one point. After he was done, Zac began to itch like mad.

“He came down with a bad case of poison oak and had red welts all over his body. The itching was driving him up the wall!

“Zac says he’s hiring professionals to take care of his yard from now on!”
