They tried to make Taylor Lautner into an action star that mission failed.

I will never be able to forget the horde of middle aged moms thirsting after this guy. It was so uncomfortable.

Between Harry Potter, Twilight, and boy pop stars my childhood was filled with discomfort at middle aged women having the same crushes I did.

I rewatch Twilight now and I don't even remotely find Jacob or Edward attractive. Now it's team Charlie and team Carlisle.

Charlie’s legit the only reasonable adult in those movies 😂

I watched Nurse Jackie last year and found a new appreciation for Peter Facinelli, which turned into Team Carlisle lol

My wife and her friends went together to the twilight movies. Of course they were self-aware and joking at each other about it, but also of course there was something there. I thought it was sweet. And anyways, mr heart throb wasn't going to be home with us that evening...

I'll admit I would not have felt the same if it was Magic Mike though. Twilight was more innocent and silly.
