It takes strict dieting and countless sit-ups to achieve the perfect washboard stomach.

But playful Zac Efron appeared to have some assistance as he showcased his six-pack while accepting the Best Shirtless Performance award at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday.

His natural musculature seemed to be enhanced with make-up as he moved around the stage at the Nokia Theatre after Rita Ora tore his shirt off.

To top it off, his appearance was made even more awkward by a fake tan mishap, with his orange-toned torso sharply contrasting his fair face.

Thankfully the 26-year-old seemed blissfully ignorant as he hammed it up for the crowd, confidently gesticulating as the ladies in the audience screeched with approval.

Of course he had every reason to look smug, given he had just been given the award for Best Shirtless Performance for his turn in That Awkward Moment, and he seems to putting the embarrassment of being caught up in a brawl in L.A’s sketchy, drug riddled Skid Row area behind him.

He had already promised via Twitter to accept his award shirtless should he win, but seemed to be going back on his word as he hummed and hawed on stage.

Zac, who was clearly delighted to have landed the prestigious honour, told the crowd: ‘I don’t really know what to say, but thank you so much to my fans.’

However his speech seemed to rile Calvin Harris’ current squeeze Rita, who ordered him to, ‘please take your shirt off,’ when he sauntered up to pick up his popcorn statuette.

So she sped up the process herself by sneaking up behind him and ripping off his top denim shirt as he delivered his boring speech.
