22-year-old Zac said on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday that he made sure he had Vanessa’s permission before he went to the club where he reportedly spent $2,000.

‘The hardest thing was calling your girlfriend before. How do you even start that conversation without feeling like a total asshole?’ he asked.

‘I’m not really a type of guy who does this kind of thing often,’ he insisted.

‘I had this image of what it’d be like. I’ve heard a lot about these places, mostly from rap music – they’re supposed to be pretty reputable! So I envisioned myself in a nice couch with ‘stunna shades’ with T-Pain and Usher making it rain money. And it just wasn’t like that.’
