Dylan Efron<\/strong><\/a> revealed that Zac Efron<\/strong><\/a> got \u201cdefensive\u201d when he heard that his reaction to his brother\u2019s Dancing With the Stars<\/em> scores went viral.<\/p>\n

\u201cI actually did speak to Zac about this because I was just saying it as I thought it was funny,\u201d Dylan, 33, said during a Tuesday, November 9, appearance on SiriusXM\u2019s Smith Sisters Live<\/em><\/a>. \u201cBut then Zac was like, \u2018Oh no.\u2019 He\u2019s like, \u2018They\u2019re misinterpreting it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

While Dylan didn\u2019t remember Zac\u2019s exact phrasing, he recalled his brother telling him it was an excellent performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I can\u2019t remember what he was saying, but I think he said that he thought it was a really good dance,\u201d he recalled. \u201cSo he is like, \u2018Is that the highest score they would give?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tZac Efron wasn\u2019t in the audience of Dancing With the Stars to cheer on his brother Dylan Efron on Dedication Night \u2014 but he still got a special shout-out. During the Tuesday, October 14, episode of the ABC reality competition series, Dylan, 33, and his partner, Daniella Karagach, performed a contemporary routine to \u201cRewrite the [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Zac, 38, made his debut in the DWTS<\/em> ballroom<\/a> alongside his family to support Dylan during the season 34 semi-finals last month. After Dylan and partner Daniella Karagach<\/strong>\u00a0earned a 27 for their tango to Prince<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cI Would Die 4 U,\u201d the camera panned to Zac who turned to his mom to seemingly ask a question.<\/p>\n

The moment went viral online as fans tried to figure out what Zac was saying<\/a>. Social media lip-readers theorized that the High School Musical<\/em> star had asked, \u201cAre those good scores?\u201d<\/p>\n

Following the moment, Dylan asked Zac the question the Internet had been wondering.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he was more like, \u2018That should have been higher or something like that,\u2019\u201d Dylan explained on Tuesday. \u201cBut that Zac was, yeah, I don\u2019t know. It was funny regardless. But Zac got defensive. He is like, \u2018No, they misinterpreted what I meant.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

During the show, Zac shared his support for Dylan by encouraging his fans to vote for him to make it to the finale.<\/p>\n

\u201cVote for @dylanefron tonight on DWTS<\/em>!\u201d Zac wrote via his Instagram Story before the live taping came to an end. \u201cText \u2018Dylan\u2019 to 21523 ten times.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dylan previously shared how grateful<\/a> he was to Zac to take the time to come support him amid his busy schedule.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt means everything. I grew up watching him do stuff like this,\u201d Dylan told Entertainment Tonight<\/em> last month following the semi-final episode. \u201cLooking over, my family\u2019s there, my girlfriend. Just seeing all of them together, that\u2019s my support.\u201d<\/p>\n
