I went off and read the books after the audition and I read all four books in one sitting - you know - didn't wash, didn't eat, drove around with them on the steering wheel like a lunatic.

I got into shape because I took kick-boxing lessons every day to prepare for a fight scene with Taylor Lautner. I really wanted to lie down and eat Chinese food, but I kick-boxed every morning and ran. If someone was filming you with your kit off, you'd do the same thing.

There's nothing more mortifying than getting an erection.

I saw the big guy in the blue sweatshirt just standing out front. They told him to drop the gun. They told us to stay down. It was scary. I thought there was going to be open fire. I just stayed there, just didn't move.

I damaged my Achilles tendon, so I can't run.

I get some of the nicest fan mail you could imagine. Also when I'm up for an award, my fans all vote online and then they'll boast to each other about how many thousands of times they've clicked my name. Their thumbs must be bleeding!
