I am currently at The Official Twilight Convention in Orlando where Alex Meraz, Chaske Spencer, and Booboo Stewart just wrapped up the Q&A session earlier today. Here are a few tidbits from the session and some photos…
1. When the guys first walked on stage, there was a CD and tshirt of Booboo sitting on the chairs. Alex grabbed the CD and put it down his shirt. The crowd went crazy (of course). Booboo tossed out the shirt to the crowd. Alex then (gently) tossed Booboo’s CD to a fan.
2. Alex used to play Cowboys & Indians when he was like 8. He ran around in his underwear and wore pigeon feathers in his hair. He says looking back that he probably shouldn’t have put pigeon feathers in his hair (lol…for sanitary reasons).
3. Crazy moment on set: The City of Gardens. Wearing short shorts and shooting in prison. Crowd laughing. Think about it He was wearing boots. He tried to do a butterfly twist and shorts fell down. Shoelaces tied up, he fell and roll in his undies. It was caught on film. They played it at the movie wrap party.
4. Alex talked about how he choked Kristen on set. Most people have heard of this story, but if you haven’t, let me know.
5. Favorite Christmas movie: Nightmare before Christmas and Miracle on 34th Street
6. Alex recently picked up jiujitsu!! It’s a mixed martial art. (Note from Crystal: Very cool stuff because I love MMA and UFC…go GSP!)
7. Alex’s New Year’s resolution didn’t happen this year. But maybe he can transfer it to next year. Have an art show. Chaske had previously talked about how he likes to photograph bands. Alex said that maybe they could have an artshow together in New York.
8. What dessert would you be? Alex said he can’t answer. He kept laughing and blushing. He said that whatever he says it will be turned into something sexual and there are little ones in audience.
9. Alex just said “Mickey Mouse” in a high pitched voice. Hilarious!!!!
10. If he could be any character in Twilight, he would be anyone with a blond wig. Maybe James, cut the wig into a mullet (business in front, party in back!)
11. Favorite candy? His mind goes straight into the gutter, again. lol. He said jaw breakers. Lmao…!!!
12. “Anitaman” is in da house!! Anitaman likes to slip some great pickup lines into the question box for Alex. This one if by far the best one I have heard from her yet. Alex keeps them on his fridge. “I don’t have a library card, but can I still check you out?”
13. What is a memory you’d like to relive? Chaske said his mind went to the gutter and laughed. Alex said “uh…Booboo?” lol.
14. Favorite band: Alex gets stuck with the one favorite questions because he likes multiple things. But he said right now, he listens to M.I.A when he goes to gym. Good beat while running.
15. What animal would you be and why? He said he’d be something where he couldn’t play with himself…like a dolphin. LMAO…!!
16. Short films “Fruits of Labor” & “Burning Water”. These are two short films back in the early 2004′ish that he directed and stared in. He has the DVDs, but they were not released. He teased about giving one of them to TheMerazEffect.com to release on our site. I told him I would totally release it for him!
17. The guys were asked if they get recognized. Alex said that he is in Arizona right now for the holidays. He said that there are some guys that come up to him in gym that recognize him. And he said one guy asked him to spot him, but he was only benching like 90 pounds (extremely light for a guy). So Alex said ok. Then the guy kept asking him all kinds of Twilight questions. He said it was awkward. He said the girls don’t come up to him.
18. Favorite holiday tradition: Hanging w/family. He said the guys are usually hanging out in one room sparing, while the girls are usually cooking. He said he is training so he’ll be all set for Christmas!
19. Alex says if you look up “Be the Shift” online, don’t forget the “f”!!!
20. His feet tattoos. He said that are Purepecha tribal tattoos. They basically mean Creation of life. He has them to help keep him grounded. He didn’t say whether or not he has had to have them touched up (which often happens when you have tattoos on your feet), but I’ll try to ask him again tomorrow.
