Taylor was 16 and Rob was 22 when they began filming Twilight and they didn't have any scenes together. They only began working together during New Moon, and even that was brief because Edward leaves after the first 15 minutes and never has any interaction with Jacob after that.

They have nothing in common, I don't know why he's even talking about this now.

Hes still milking it huh

[pepsi_twist9]

Speaking of milking it, I didn't know Meyer wrote a gender bent version of Twilight too. So there's the original, the Edward POV and the genderbent. I only read the first novel of the original so I have no intention of reading any of the others but it just about blew my mind when I found that out.

The gender bent one wasn't that bad tbh, but given the concept she should have done a lot more with it.

Normally I'd agree but Twilight is having a bit of a renaissance on social media (don't ask me why, idk) so it makes sense lol

Misleading post as always by the OP lol.

I can't imagine dealing with the impact and craze of the Twilight fandom.

I wonder all the time how hard it must have been for him to be threatened with unemployment if he wasn't shredded enough to be his teenage character while ACTUALLY being a teenager. As well as the very gross way adult women sexualized him.

God I'll never forget the interview of him when he was 16 or 17 and the interviewer asked him to show off his sixpack. He also talked about his diet regime and that he had to gain another 15 pounds for the second movie. Like - that dude was still going through puberty at the time!

I remember this! He was constantly showing his abs off and all these women in the audience would scream bloody murder. So creepy and gross

[pepsi_twist9]

I remember seeing him on a talkshow, I want to say Kimmel, and the host had to shut down the creepy audience. I remember Lautner looking really uncomfortable too

Taylor Lautner's wife hangs out with Candace Cameron Bure's daughter, so I do think they're really different beyond just the personality piece.

Taylor has mad youth pastor vibes.
