Slow Wi-Fi connection is to blame for the brief appearance of the Troy Bolton depicter that has left many fans disappointed following the Disney singalong.

AceShowbiz - Zac Efron didn't sing during the much anticipated "High School Musical" segment on Thursday night's April 16, 2020 Disney Family Singalong, with host Ryan Seacrest blaming "patchy Wi-Fi" for the actor's brief involvement.

Fans of the Disney movie around the world had been hoping to see the 32-year-old reprise his role as Troy Bolton for a singalong of "We're All In This Together" with his former castmates, including ex-girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens. But instead of joining the rendition, Zac was on hand to introduce it instead, with Ryan explaining the screen star was in coronavirus lockdown in the "middle of nowhere" and didn't have a good enough Internet connection for a prolonged appearance.

"Now just when you thought we couldn't give you any more feels, I have a surprise for you," Ryan explained. "This star is hunkered down in the middle of nowhere with patchy Wi-Fi, but he does not want to miss out on tonight."

After being introduced by Ryan, Zac told viewers, "Hi everyone, I hope that you're safe, and that you're healthy and you're doing as well as possible during these unprecedented times."

'It's my greatest pleasure to introduce a musical performance by some of my oldest friends, and some new ones. I hope you enjoy - and remember: we are all in this together."

Vanessa was then joined by Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman, and Lucas Grabeel to belt out the "High School Musical" classic, with guest appearances from stars of other Disney shows such as "Descendants", "Zombies", and "Raven's Home".

But Zac's absence from the performance didn't go down well with viewers, many of whom took to social media to complain.

"They really added all these actors to make up for zac efron not wanting to sing with the hsm (High School Musical) cast," one person wrote, while another added, "Really offended by the fact that Zac Efron didn't sing with the HSM cast, I'm like EXTREMELY offended."
