Twilight‘s Taylor Lautner Definitely Lived Up to His Muscle Promise

I haven’t seen Twilight — making me either a good or a bad gay — but I’m vaguely familiar with Taylor Lautner (who plays Jacob Black), who was reportedly thisclose to being banned from the sequel because he was too scrawny. Unless he added more muscle to his little frame, he would be replaced. Producers were pretty mum on the subject, but in this video interview Lautner mentions the “necessity for the character” and how he “guaranteed” he would put on weight. Guess what? Mission accomplished. He puts on a gun show (and displays his washboards) below.

And yes, I know the video is a smidge old. Whatever.

Don’t remember the scrawnier Lautner?
