A film with a cast already overflowing with talent saw cameos by stars Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift on July 30, 2009 in Los Angeles, California. Both tween idols enjoyed each other’s company on set, flirting and laughing until director Gary Marshall interrupted them. The newly added actors are playing athletes for the fictional Henderson High School track and field team and Lautner took the opportunity to flaunt his athletic prowess and well-built frame, sprinting, jumping hurdles and doing the high jump while the less sports-inclined Swift did some mild stretching.

Kristen Stewart is itching to get her baby bump on—as her Twilight heroine Bella, of course!

During today’s New Moon panel discussion at Comic-Con, K.Stew was asked which aspect of the upcoming films she was most looking forward to. “Uh, I can’t wait to get pregnant,” she said, giggling.

In on the joke, costar Robert Pattinson added, “I can’t wait to perform the cesarean!” The screeching 6,000-person crowd, of course, caught the reference to the gruesome birth that takes place in Breaking Dawn—which is still three movies away!

But the panel wasn’t all about vampire spawn. Costar/werewolf Taylor Lautner, director Chris Weitz and Ashley Greene joined the fun, too, as lots of New Moon footage hit the screen. And R.Pattz admitted to being a “p*ssy.”

Taylor Lautner has a buff, sexy body — but he hates it!

But, according to the National Enquirer, the young star is desperate for the smash hit film franchise to end so he keen stop pumping iron and look himself again.

“Normally Taylor is much thinner,” an insider told the tabloid. “It’s a struggle to keep the weight on because he likes to run. He’s into martial arts and has a pretty quick metabolism.

“He says he doesn’t feel like himself. He intends to stay fit, but he says he will take off at least 20 pounds once filming wraps on the final installment of Twilight.”

New Moon — which also stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart — hits movie theaters on November 20, 2009.

Meanwhile, Lautner was seen lunching with a mystery (and older) girl outside at Hollywood’s Sunset Marquis Hotel Saturday.

Looks like things are getting mighty steamy in Bella’s truck! In a just-released still photo from New Moon, Kristen Stewart – as Twilight’s beloved heroine – cozies up to teen hunk Taylor Lautner, who plays Jacob Black.

In the Twilight sequel, Bella turns to best bud Jacob to lick her wounds after her vampire love Edward (played by Robert Pattinson) flees Forks, Wash., in the hopes of giving her a normal life. But as Bella grapples with her not-so-platonic feelings for Jacob, he transforms into a werewolf.

Talk about growing pains. In order to compete with Robert Pattinson in the upcoming Twilight sequel, New Moon, Taylor Lautner had to transform from a cute kid into a ripped god – er, werewolf.

“The day I finished Twilight, I came home and started bulking up,” Lautner, 17, tells Interview magazine about his getting fit to return as werewolf Jacob Black. “For New Moon, I’m 30 pounds heavier than I was in Twilight.”

What’s the biggest challenge living with his ab-tastic new physique? “I grew out of a lot of my clothes,” he says. “I went from a men’s small to a men’s large.”

With New Moon mania in full swing, fans of the bestselling vampire saga haven’t pulled any punches. “They are very intense, but it’s cool that they’re so dedicated and so passionate,” he says, even though “sometimes it becomes a little overwhelming.”

Case in point: costar Robert Pattinson – who plays brooding vampire Edward Cullen – was recently mobbed by fans in New York City. “We’ve met many different fans: the criers, who come around quite often; the hyperventilators who stop breathing and have to have a medic come,” Lautner says. “We’ve definitely seen some passion.”
