ZAC Efron says girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens “helps” him keep his house clean.

The Charlie St. Cloud star — who has been dating the actress since their days shooting Disney’s High School Musical movies — told America’s Parade magazine that Hudgens is a godsend when it comes to taking care of his Hollywood Hills home.

“I’m not neat by nature, but I’m kind of figuring it out — and Vanessa helps out a lot,” he said.

“Right now, we’re doing great and just having a lot of fun together.”

Zac also revealed that he took time off work to spend some much-needed time with his younger brother.

“[I] kicked off the summer by taking my little brother, Dylan, on a graduation trip to Hawaii,” he said.

“He’s going off to college next year, and I’ve been working very hard, so we haven’t been able to see each other as much as we would have liked to in the past few years. We hiked through the inner jungle in Maui, and you come across these really beautiful spots. We found this hidden place where there was an enormous waterfall and cliff jump. It was about a thirty-five foot drop.

“Once you’ve done it, the funny part is trying to convince someone else to jump off, too.

“I’m the one who’s always saying, ‘Go for it, go for it — jump!’ And then when you come up out of the water, you feel fantastic.”
