Nikki Talks Honeymoon
Nikki Reed spent her honeymoon with her 'Twilight Saga' co-star.
The 24-year-old actress tied the knot with singer Paul McDonald last month but because of her promotional schedule for 'Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part I' - in which she reprises her role as Rosalie Hale - they had little time alone together after their wedding.
She said: "Jackson [Rathbone, who plays Jasper Hale] was basically on my honeymoon. Paul and I got married and then had to leave a few days later for the international tour so [Jackson and I] were in Spain and Italy with Paul."
Nikki praised 27-year-old Paul for his support during her stint promoting the film because the scale of what she had to do could be "overwhelming".
She told Us Weekly magazine: "I think the 'Twilight' promo stuff can be a bit overwhelming at times, so I'm really lucky that Paul is so supportive. It takes a special kind of personality to be able to go and do that with someone."
While Nikki had to share her honeymoon with Jackson, she insists she has always been happy to hang out with her co-stars because they are like a "family".
She said: "Regardless of what characters we play, we're all such a family that the dynamic is always the same. It's always really goofy and silly and slightly unprofessional."

Ashley Looks Back At Twilight Over The Years
“I'm trying not to drink coffee right now, which it was probably the worst decision as far as timing goes, during a press tour ... but I always end up drinking so much, and it's just not good. And then I don't feel good,” the “Twilight” star said as she relaxed on a plush couch during a recent one-on-one interview at the Four Seasons Hotel . “But really thinking about it, though, it's like, what time is a good time?”
The fashionista of the “Twilight” franchise didn't sound like she needed caffeine as she energetically chatted about “Breaking Dawn — Part 1,” the fourth and penultimate film in the paranormally popular series, as well as her future, nonvampire roles, including an upcoming thriller directed by an Oklahoma filmmaker.
In “The Twilight Saga ,” Greene, 24, plays perky Alice Cullen, a vampire who can see the future of humans and other immortals. A fashion enthusiast who loves to throw lavish parties, Alice is thrilled when her adopted brother Edward (Robert Pattinson) weds his human fiancee, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart ), in “Breaking Dawn — Part 1.”
“She's planning this wedding, and she has full control of everything, and everything's a fairy tale. ... It was fun going to set every day, you know, because you just have to be extremely happy. A little ball of joy,” said Greene, who looked chic in a pair of dark jeans, a flowing, low-cut red blouse and towering beige heels.
The happily-ever-after reaches to an abrupt end when Bella becomes pregnant on the honeymoon. The impending birth not only threatens Bella's life — an emergency vampire conversion will be her only hope for survival — it also endangers the Cullen clan's pact with the local werewolves of the Quileute Tribe, including Bella's best pal, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner).
“In this one you get to see both extremes: Her having this fairy tale and then her world kind of crashing down,” Greene said.
Director Bill Condon and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg divided Stephanie Meyer's hefty fourth and final novel of the “Twilight” series into two halves, and both movies were shot at the same time.
In “Breaking Dawn — Part 2,” due in theaters next November, circumstances force Alice to leave the Cullen coven on a quest.
“I was like, ‘Am I gonna have a job?'
Full steam ahead
Much like her character, the actress has become known as the fashionista of the “Twilight” family.
Last year, Greene became the face of Avon's “mark” line of cosmetics, and last month she was named the new ambassador for fashion designer Donna Karan's DKNY and DKNY Jeans.
“It's a really very organic fit ... because mark is all about empowerment for women. They actually have an empowerment program and (are) very just female-driven and strong, and I feel like Donna Karan kind of embodies that whole thing. They're very complementary of one another, so that's kind of exciting for me to be able to move forward with both of them.”
Greene also is moving ahead with her post-“Twilight” acting career, starting Dec. 4 with a three-episode arc on ABC's 1960s-set aviation drama “Pan Am.” She will star in the comedic films “Butter” and “LOL” and recently signed on for “Olivia Twisted,” an ultramodern female version of “Oliver Twist.”
“I think ‘Twilight' has given us a really good jumping-off point, and one of the things I'm most thankful for — other than the fan base that we've developed — is that it gave me the ability to say no and to really sit back and wait for something that was inspiring to me,” she said.
Among the projects she found inspiring: “The Apparition,” the feature film debut from Tulsa writer-director Todd Lincoln.
“It was really fun working with him, and ... you could just tell that this was his baby and he was so passionate about it. And Todd actually fought for me on that movie. I met with him, and he was kind of one of the driving forces that got me that role, so (I'm) very thankful for that,” she said.

New! Interview: Chaske Spencer On Taylor Lautner And Twilight Moments
OLOGY: Hey Chaske! How are you?CHASKE SPENCER: Great, thanks.
Breaking Dawn: Part 1 is finally here! How does it feel knowing you started off playing Dracula in a play back in New York and then you ended up in a vampire series?
Awesome! [Laughs] I don’t really think about it too much. I guess it was just supposed to be that way, I don’t know. It was off Broadway but I’m pretty happy the way things turned out.
You started off in New Moon. When did you know it was such a phenomenon?
Seeing pictures of it in USA Today and seeing the press release was knowing it was going to be a big deal. I didn't know much about Twilight before that. I had seen the posters around New York but it’s not really my demographic. [Laughs] I didn't rush out to see it but I was on a plane ride over from New York to Vancouver and luckily they were playing it…I didn't start in Twilight so I kind of just got on this train that was already out of control and tried to hold on tight. [Laughs]
What drew you to the character Sam? How was the audition process?
It was really weird because I never auditioned for something like this before. First off, there was no script. It was just the book. They gave us excerpts of the book. I auditioned for Paul and Jared. Pretty much those characters and then I didn't hear back for a bit. Then I heard they wanted me for Sam. I was really surprised because I didn't know who Sam was, but I talked to some people who were really into the book and they told me it was a really good character…I just started doing research on leaders, mainly military. I’m nothing like Sam. [Laughs]
I can’t believe that! What was the last day on set like for all of you? Part 1 is now showing but you also are in post-production for the final installment.
We were all up all night and it wasn't a big sad goodbye for me. It was just that I was tired. [Laughs] I was tired and we had been shooting—and no pun intended but we saw breaking dawn—and the sun was coming up and we had to get the shots. There wasn't a big send off or anything.
How was the wrap party?
Everyone was having a good time and being in the moment. I thought the party was good. Metaphorically speaking, twilight was a good ride. It was one good party.
What about a favorite storyline from the series?
Probably Leah Clearwater. I liked her arc and her story from Eclipse. I like what Stephenie [Meyers] did there.
Did you read the books beforehand or did you just jump right in?
No, I had not read the books before filming. After I got the part I did read the books. I didn't read Breaking Dawn though until a few weeks before filming started.
Which was your favorite?
My favorite would probably be Eclipse. I really liked Eclipse. I liked the back story of the wolf pack and how the vampires came to be. I really enjoyed reading that and informing me on a lot of stuff. I really liked Eclipse.
Do you and the rest of the wolf pack hang and work out together?
They hired us a trainer and we ended up working out in New Moon and Eclipse but in between that I used my own trainer…he helped me keep in shape. I think Taylor had been working out a year before that so he already had his own thing going on but the rest of us—they threw us in like a wolf camp. I had a good time. We all got more muscle than we had before. [Laughs] I really had a good time doing the workouts.
Well it definitely seemed like you all had the opportunity to hang out because of filming in Vancouver. What did you and the cast do on your downtime?
I sometimes did things on my own and kind of veered off to discover Vancouver. I didn't hang out with too many people besides the wolf guys. [Laughs] I just kept to myself….The cast—we went out to dinner. Going to dinner was awesome. We went to a few clubs once in awhile but mainly we were just so busy working out. [Laughs]
Word is you’re of course Team Jacob! Who would be your favorite vampire?
Probably I’d say Carlisle. I like his character the best.
Was there still some rivalry between the wolf and vampire cast members though? [Laughs]
Oh, yeah! There was definitely some banter going on back and forth. A lot of it was Jackson Rathbone [Jasper] and Alex Meraz [Paul]. They would sometimes throw a comment back and forth to one another but it was all in good fun.
Well, what’s it like seeing yourself on the screen as a wolf? It seems like it would be weird!
It was cool! I mean it really was cool, and who doesn't want to be a wolf? Whether it’s to be supernatural, a superhero or werewolf or vampire. It was cool. I was at the premiere at New Moon and seeing my wolf crew and Alex Meraz looked at me and just gave me this weird smile. [Laughs] It was just very surreal. We just kind of looked at each other. It was something else. [Laughs]
So who are you closest to on set?
Probably Julia Jones [Leah] or Alex Meraz. Mainly the wolf guys; we worked out together. Tinsel Korey [Emily] and all of them too because we just filmed a lot of scenes together. Oh my God, I’m looking at birthday cards right now. It says, ‘Wish you a Happy Birthday, with more fun than humanly possible,’ and it has Rob [Pattinson], Kristen [Stewart] and Taylor on here.
That’s hilarious! They are all over the place.
Yeah! [Laughs] I’m in Walmart right now.
[Laughs] Taylor’s definitely broken out because of the films. Was there any talk about that while filming?
Taylor’s got a pretty focused head on his shoulders. He’s a really god guy. We chat from time to time but it’s never about that. It’s just mainly when we’re working on a scene or something. We don’t take each other too seriously. He’s just a normal kid, a normal young man in a very interesting situation.
And of course there’s Rob and Kristen. Did cast members try to keep as mum as possible when it came to talking about that relationship?
I don’t know what you’re talking about, what do you mean?
[Laughs} Stop! It just came out a few weeks ago. She told a newspaper about her British boyfriend.
I don’t know. I would not know. [Laughs] I wouldn't know. You would have to ask them.
Okay, fine! [Laughs] Well do you get recognized a lot? Do you have any funny fan stories?
I’m standing in Walmart right now and there’s a Twilight poster right there and no one seems to know who I am. [Laughs] So that kind of sums it up. Not really, but every once in awhile. Around L.A. I will but I’m really surprised if I do.
