Nikki Interview

J-14 continues their New Moon Countdown with Nikki Reed. She talks beauty.

J-14: Rosalie Cullen is all about beauty — is that a lot of pressure to play?
Nikki: I feel incredible insecure. I feel embarrassed. At times flattered and at times, I just want to apologize to everybody. You know, I’m really appreciative to have that role, but in order for me to not just like fall apart because of the pressure of playing that character with that description is just sort of unbearable at times.

J-14: Do you try to turn the focus away from her looks?
Nikki: I just tried to look at her as every other aspect aside from her being the most beautiful. When you have like 30 million people reading a book, everyone’s going to picture in their minds who the most beautiful person in the world is — it’s not me and I know that. But I’m really grateful to all those people that think that I fit that — thank you.

J-14 Talks with Taylor

J-14 continues their New Moon Countdown with Taylor Lautner talking about Kristen Stewart.

Here is what he had to tell J-14:

J-14: Who did you bond the most with during the filming of The Twilight Saga movies?
Taylor Lautner: The most is pretty hard. I really bonded with Nikki Reed. I spend a lot of time with Nikki and Kristen.
J-14: What’s it like working with Kristen so closely?
Taylor: Kristen’s a great girl. A lot of fun to be around. She’s such a talented actress. It’s awesome to be acting opposite of someone like that. She’s amazing. It’s a lot of fun!

Jackson Interview

J-14 Magazine continues their New Moon Countdown with an interview with Jackson Rathbone. He talks about Jasper attacking Bella.

J-14: Jackson, you in particular have a much more crucial role in this movie. What was it like for you to go lurching at Kristen Stewart and be fought off by Rob Pattinson? Was it as intense as it looks?

Jackson Rathbone: Yeah, it was as intense as it looked and a little bit more actually. I don’t want to give too much away but both Kellan [Lutz] and Peter [Facinelli] had to hold me back through that scene. It was one of those scenes that we talked before and I really wanted to go all out and it was great getting to work with the guy doing the stunt stuff with Rob, Peter, and Kellan, because they actually held me back. They actually stop me from getting hurt because if they hadn’t held me back I would have taken Kristen down.

J-14: Kristen would have been a goner, huh?

Jackson: Oh yeah!
