The 'Back to December' hitmaker and the 'High School Musical' alum are joined by Danny DeVito, Ed Helms and Betty White among other stars at the special screening.

Taylor Swift has attended the premiere of Dr. Seuss' "The Lorax" on Sunday, February 19. The Grammy-winning singer, who voices Audrey in the upcoming animated film, was joined by co-star Zac Efron in front of Universal Studios Hollywood. They were caught on camera sharing a hug before posing together for awaiting photographers.

Taylor looked demure gracing the orange carpet in a cream-colored knee-length dress and a pair of open-toe heels. The 22-year-old beauty wore her hair in an up-do. Meanwhile, Efron, who voices Ted in the movie, opted for a casual attire that consisted of a black Simon Spurr leather jacket, a white t-shirt and a pair of denims.

The other stars coming to the special screening included Danny DeVito and Ed Helms. The "When in Rome" actor and the Dr. Stu Price of "The Hangover" were snapped taking time to pose with the Lorax-costumed character. Another voice cast, Betty White, was also spotted coming to the event.

"The Lorax" itself revolves around 12-year-old Ted, who lives in "Thneed-Ville". He looks for one thing that will help him win Audrey's affection. In order to find it, he must discover the story of a grumpy yet charming creature named the Lorax, who fights to protect his world. Directed by Chris Renaud and Kyle Balda, the movie is set to open in the U. S. theaters on March 2.
