Taylor Lautner Wants to Keep His Shirt On

Teen heartthrob Taylor Lautner is tired of being 'just a body'. The 17-year-old star, who worked hard to get in 6-pack shape for his role as Jacob in the Twilight Saga New Moon, had this to say to MTV.com:

"My motivation was the movie and the fans," MTV.com quotes him as telling Aceshowbiz.com about packing on 30 lbs. of muscle. "But I don't want to become known as just a body."

He continued: "If I had to choose, I would never take my shirt off again in a movie, but I guess that's not very realistic. I certainly won't be asking to do it, though."

"There's some good competition," he said of costar Robert Pattinson's own drool-worthy physique. In terms of workout tips, "He definitely doesn't need any pointers at all," says Lautner. "He's got it covered."
