Kellan Lutz: I Don't Want to Be "a Piece of Meat" My Entire Career (Us Weekly)

Twilight hunk Kellan Lutz holds no illusions about the nature of his stardom. "Producers and studios know what sells," the impressively fit actor told UsMagazine.com during a Monday phone interview. "It's nice to be one of the guys that can help sell a movie by taking his shirt off."
Lutz, 25, recently topped Men's Health magazine's inaugural list of Best Summer Bodies -- beating out such six-packed studs as Matthew McConaughey, Twilight costar Taylor Lautner, Zac Efron and others.
