"Kellan Me Softly"


Kellan Me Softly

The Twilight vampire and Immortals deity explains how he’s toning down his beefcake image, when he finally acquired gaydar, and why insecure girls assume he has a boyfriend.

Lutz in The Comeback with Lisa Kudrow
Teenage girls may moon over Kellan Lutz as vampire Emmett Cullen in theTwilight saga — the penultimate installment,Breaking Dawn Part 1, premieres November 18 — but it’s his racy Calvin Klein underwear campaign and his oft-photographed shirtless workouts that really get gay men’s blood pumping. Also playing the god Poseidon in Immortals, which is in theaters November 11, the 26-year-old heartthrob opens up about being worshipped.


The Advocate: I’m not much of a Twihard, but I’ve been a fan of yours since HBO’sThe Comeback in 2005.
Kellan Lutz: I love that! Brandon, you’re the shit. Thank you.

What did you take away from that experience?

I loved working on The Comeback, but I faked that whole experience. I was just a happy-go-lucky kid who fell into acting. I was going to college at Orange County’s Chapman University for chemical engineering. I met this checkout lady at Ralph’s named Maria and, long story short, she said that I should be an actor and opened up my eyes to the world of acting. I started taking acting classes, auditioning, doing extra work, and I fell in love with acting. I didn’t even notice Lisa Kudrow in the room when I did my last callback for The Comeback, because I didn’t watch TV, but I was bouncing off the walls with energy. I just thank them all for giving me a chance. It opened so many doors for me.
