He may be one of the hottest blokes in Hollywood right now, but ‘New ooon’ star Taylor Lautner has revealed he wasn’t one of the cool kids at high school – in fact, he was bullied.
The 17-year-old confesses, “I was never extremely confident. Because I was an actor, when I was in school, there was a little bullying going on. Not physical bullying but people making fun of what I do… I just had to tell myself I couldn’t let this get to me. This is what love to do and I’m going to continue to do it.”
Taylor gained 14kg of muscle to play werewolf Jacob Black in the latest installment of the ‘Twilight’ saga but insists the female attention is for his character and not him.
He claims, “This could have happened to anybody who played Jacob. I was just lucky enough to be the one that has the opportunity. I’m so grateful. It’s ‘Twilight’. It’s not me personally.”
