'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' star Cameron Bright makes a good point about vampires

Hi Twilight Universe!!
examiner.com (EA) has this article about Cameron!
cool!!
For far too long now, non-fans of the Twilight saga have jibed about the sparkliness of the series' vampires. Well, Cameron Bright ("Alec" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse) has something to say about that. "We have a side history, something unique. Sometimes I hear people criticizing the way the vampires are presented in the film, the fact that we glitter and turn into diamonds but, here’s the thing: Vampires don’t exist! We can portray them any way we want to," he said to Metrowest. Well, not any way the actors or filmmakers want to (since the series should be and is based upon Stephenie Meyer's vampire mythology), but close enough. What Bright is actually saying here is very astute, though, because he's pointing out the most obvious thing about the series - it's fiction. Not all movie vampires (and certainly not those of the Twilight series) have to conform to the modus operandi and physical make-up of traditional vampire lore. Sure, in some cases it's appropriate, but it is fiction, and there's no real-life, actual source upon which to base the creation of these characters. Source
