Lautner was born here, in Grand Rapids, and grew up in Hudsonville. In interviews he always describes his childhood as being bullied in school. He loved acting and always wanted to be an actor so, for whatever reason, other kids didn't like that and bullied him.

BRING ON KARATE

When he was six years old he took his first karate class and never slowed down, earning a black belt by the time he was eight, winning several junior championships.

Hopefully that is when the bulling stopped because I know I would want to cross him back then.

As his acting career began to flourish, he and his family would fly back and forth from Grand Rapids and L.A. That got a little tiring and eventually they moved to California for good.

That is when things began to take off leading eventually to being cast as Jacob Black in the Twilight Saga movies. That was the big break!
