The day I finished 'Twilight', I came home and started bulking up. For 'New Moon', I'm 30 pounds heavier than I was in Twilight.

At one point I had to shove as much food in my body as possible to pack on calories. My trainer wanted me to do six meals a day and not go two hours without eating. If I would cheat on eating one day, I could tell - I'd drop a few pounds.

The actual getting into the gym and working out process was easier, but the eating was harder. I had to eat every two hours. At one point, my trainer said, 'Put anything in your mouth. Go to McDonald's, get the biggest shake possible. I just need to get calories in you.' Because my body fat at the time was only, like, 7.5%.

If I start thinking, 'Is this movie going to open? Is this movie going to do well?' I'm not focusing on the job. The job is to make a good movie.

You show up in Paris, and on the drive from the airport to the hotel you're like, 'This is so cool! I want to see something! I want to go to the Eiffel Tower!' And then you leave the next morning. You think, Oh, I didn't get to do anything. I tell people: I've been just about everywhere, but I've seen nothing.

The coolest thing about the series is that we stay very true to the books; it would be silly for us not to, because the books are exactly what the fans want to see. There's an action side to it, which I love, and there are werewolves now. There aren't just vampires. There's a wolf pack.

I got the famous Oprah hug!

The thing I love is that my home life hasn't changed. I still help out with the garbage. I still help out with the lawn.

I was in the gym five days a week, two hours a day. At one point, I was going seven days straight. I had put on a lot of weight, and then I started losing it drastically, so I was worried. It turned out I was overworking myself. My trainer told me that I couldn't break a sweat, because I was burning more calories than I was putting on.

The day I finished 'Twilight', I came home and started bulking up. For 'New Moon', I'm 30 pounds heavier than I was in Twilight.

I love action films. I'd love to do an action drama. I'm always looking to give my character something action-oriented to do.

There's some things you just have to live with. Like twelve cars camping outside your house, and when you wake up in the morning, they're going to follow you wherever you go. It helps that I live in Valencia. It eliminates some. But they're still here.

'Braveheart' is way up there for me.

A dream acting role would be Matt Damon in the Bourne series. I would love to do something like that!

British girls are really funny, so I definitely think we'd get along.

Bulking up for the Twilight films was one of the hardest things I've done... I had to give myself a lot of pep talks, as there was just so much gym time.

Doing a lot of drama earlier in my career and now exploring comedy has been a treat for me, and I've had an absolute blast, and I hope to continue.

Filming 'Eclipse' - Eclipse was my favorite book so I was really excited to start filming the movie. I just love that it's the height of the love triangle. 'Twilight' develops Edward and Bella's relationship, 'New Moon' develops Jacob and Bella's and in 'Eclipse,' the three of them are physically together.

Honestly, I try and stay away from what's been written about me, because if you let that stuff get to you and it's not true it can drive you crazy. One thing that I have heard recently which is not true, I didn't say it, is that I believe I was quote saying 'I will never take my shirt off for a movie again.' I didn't say that.

Honestly, for a big city, London is by far my favourite city on earth, and I'm not just saying that!

Honesty and loyalty are key. If two people can be honest with each other about everything, that's probably the biggest key to success.

I actually wasn't much of a book reader at all before the 'Twilight' series. They just draw you in, and people love them. They're terrific books.

I always played sports when I was young. I played football and baseball for eight years. I loved football.

I am that weirdo that chooses the difficult route down the side of the street.

I believe in the saying, 'If you aim at nothing, you're going to hit nothing.' So if you don't set goals, then you have nowhere to go.

I bounce my knees, but I do not have restless leg syndrome. I did an interview, I don't even know who it was with, and they said I told them I have restless leg syndrome and it distracts me from my work. I do not have any syndrome.

I definitely love Australia. I've been to Sydney and Melbourne a couple of times, and I love those places.

I do love traveling, so I've been able to travel a lot.

I don't want to become known as just a body.

I get nervous before everything - dates, filming, award shows. I just don't want to say something stupid. But as soon as I step out on that stage, or as soon as I show up to a date, it all goes away, and I just have a great time with whoever I'm with.

I got to work with legendary director Garry Marshall.

I guess winning an Oscar is the ultimate dream. A lot of amazing actors go their whole career without even being nominated. So that would definitely be a goal to reach. It's a difficult one, but I'm aiming for it!

I have had someone ask me to sign their 'Team Taylor' panties. She wasn't a teenager. She was in her 40s.

I hope that I would be considered romantic. I don't know... one of my favorite movies is 'The Notebook' so I guess that would be considered romantic. But I think being romantic is more than the flowers and the gifts. It's about connecting with the person and being able to talk and share things with her.

I like to have fun, but I don't think of myself as being funny. But I'm a big jokester, so I make fun of myself a lot!

I like to think of myself as very loyal, and I love everyone I surround myself with, whether they're friends or girlfriends or whatever.

I live with my family. I moved to L.A. eight years ago, and it's the same room. But I'm looking now. I might get a condo.

I love challenging myself, doing different things, and exploring different areas that I haven't been to or gone to before.

I love to have fun and goof around and be silly, so anybody who can also do that is good for me.

I signed this girl's arm. And the next day, a family member shot me an email, and it was a link to this girl who had my signature tattooed on her arm. I was like, 'Man, that's dedication. I'm sorry you did that.'

I think of 'Twilight' in terms of the fact that the popularity has given us the opportunity to do the things that we love, and now we can pick and choose.

I think the one film that I could watch over and over and over again - and I have - is 'Man on Fire.'

I try and keep up with the top 10 on iTunes.

I was exercising so hard that I began to lose weight.

I'd have to say the biggest transformation would be my schedule. I'm really, really busy, but it's a lot of fun.

I'd love to do a movie with Denzel Washington, or some action star such as Matt Damon or Mark Wahlberg would be really cool, too.

I'm a big fan of all those singing competition shows.

I'm not sure what 'cheeky' means. I hear it used so much and in so many different ways, I can't identify the real meaning of it.

I'm not the biggest motorcycle fan - they're cool and a lot of fun, but they're scary as well!
