Taylor completely bulked up to play the werewolf Jacob in New Moon. 'I went from a men’s small to a men’s large,' he says."

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."

Taylor Lautner Shows Sixpack for GQ

"When a man transforms into a wolf," Lautner clarifies, "all of his clothes get shredded. When he comes back to human form, he's wearing ripped jeans, and that's about it. It's the way it was written. The great thing about this series is we stay true to the books."
