By no means do I want to be a piece of meat for the rest of my career. It's funny when you get asked to do a talk show, and then they follow it up with requesting you take your shirt off.

'Twilight' is such an amazing project, and I think it opened up doors for all of us cast members.
I love someone who tries to boss me around.
I'm really into extreme sports and just having fun.
When I was doing 'Generation Kill' in Africa I worked with five really super-trained Navy SEALs who taught us all these moves like how to disarm people: if there's a bar fight and someone's got a chair or there's someone with a gun behind our head, how to disable them and take them down in a swift move.
I am very picky with my career. I don't need to do it for the money or the fame. I'm very choosy, which is why I haven't played the typical role that people expect to see from someone of my stature and size, as the mean jock or the preppy. It's very easy to see me like that. That's why I go against it in different roles.
I have no real tattoos. I wear my bruises and tons of scars as my tattoos.
I have a lot of older brothers who messed up in different ways in my mother's eyes. So I learned from all of their mistakes. I can't go into detail, but while I was growing up, I always tried to make it a goal to relieve some of the stress my mother went through.
I love those kids on 'The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.' I remember when they were little they looked like they were having so much fun just being kids. And that's how I was growing up and how I try to be.
I love life way too much and find fun in almost anything. I'm a chameleon.
Producers and studios know what sells. It's nice to be one of the guys that can help sell a movie by taking his shirt off.
I did Hilary Duff's 'With Love' music video-slash-fragrance ad.
I've been training with my mixed martial arts guy as much as I can when I'm back in L.A., so if I could do another movie like I did in 'The Killing Game,' with Samuel L. Jackson, that would be awesome.
I probably have more friends from 'Twilight' than I've ever had in my whole life.
I could definitely take someone out with my bare hands.
Actors strive to be part of something like 'Twilight' and what 'Twilight' is, is unbelievable.
It's weird that the world sees modeling as a negative. It just blows my mind how many people think that because I was a model, I think I'm pretty and that I can use my looks to get ahead. I'm not pretty!
You can't just build a huge chest and arms. You need to work out your body evenly. Otherwise, A, you'll look weird, and B, it's not the best for your body.
Lucky Justin Timberlake has Jessica Biel. I think she would just be the coolest girl to hang out with.
I love having candles, especially when you get downtime. I could just pass out seeing the flame flicker with the lights off.
When I'm at craft services, I make the best-tasting, 10-layer meat and cheese sandwich with no bread.
I love to take risks, I love to travel, and I'm very outdoor-sy, so any girl who can pick up a football and throw a spiral will definitely catch my attention.
I'm really great with weapons: I did a lot of bo and staff training for 'Immortals.' I love knives. I'm a pretty good shot. But I love hand-to-hand combat.
I love playing the bad guy getting away with stuff. I was that kid who learned from my older brothers who got away with everything by smiling.
I'd love to do a movie like 'The Machinist.' It's an extreme movie but it takes you to a place that is quite impressive.
In L.A., I was meeting people who were all actors. My mind started to open up to what acting was. I didn't realize that Brad Pitt was a real person. I didn't think he was a robot or a machine, but I thought you were just born into acting - that it's a family tree, kind of like NASCAR. No one can just say, 'Hey, I'm going to be a NASCAR driver.'
I want to fly a jet. I'd love to just be in the air and go mach 3 or mach 4. Or, I'd be an underwater salvager. I've always been fascinated with the Bermuda Triangle and Atlantis. I love chemistry, also. That's why acting is so random for me!
I worked my butt off in high school and received a lot of scholarships for college and to throw all that away for acting was tough for my family, but it was just something I felt my heart pulling me towards and don't regret a single minute of it. I love to act!
