Kellan Lutz talks football:

The Super Bowl has a way of bringing out some of the biggest names in Hollywood along with the biggest names in sports. Page 2 chatted with Twilight’s Kellan Lutz about his Super Bowl weekend and his dreams of playing football — before he stumbled upon a little bit of fame with the whole Twilight franchise thing.

“I love football,” he told Page 2. “I miss my high school days where I played. I was going to college for (football) and then acting came up so I had to put school on hold and now I’m on this acting adventure.”

Despite his love for the game, he’ll be the first to admit he made the right choice when it comes to career success.

“I don’t think I’m tall enough, big enough or strong enough to be in the Super Bowl,” he said. “I just miss playing football and getting hit and hitting people.”

Lutz has been making the party rounds at the Super Bowl, hitting up the Tide Plus Febreze Freshness Sport Launch, the Audi Superbowl XLIV Party at The W South Beach, the Direct TV Beach Bowl and of course, he’ll be at the Super Bowl game on Sunday.

Michael Welch on Anna Kendrick’s Oscar Nomination:

Costar and fellow Forks High student Michael Welch has reached out to MTV with his reaction — and let’s just say he’s happier than a vegetarian vampire with a freshly-killed deer.

“Human pride!” Michael beamed when we spoke, revealing where Mike Newton’s loyalties lie. “Represent!”

That’s right: For those of you keeping score at home, it’s vampires zero, werewolves zero, humans one.

Michael was clearly thrilled for his friend and co-star Kendrick, but added that with the “Twilight” saga bringing together so many talented actors, it was just a matter of time before one of them made it into the Oscar promised land.

“There are a lot of people in this that are capable of the kind of work that could lead to an Oscar nomination,” he said of the immensely popular series. “It doesn’t happen to many actors.”

“Anna deserves it. She has an uncanny ability to get under the skin of her characters,” Michael said of the “Up in the Air” actress, who plays Jessica Stanley in the “Twilight” films. “She really seems to understand the mindset of the girls she plays.”
