Ashley Greene: “Edi [Gathegi, who plays Laurent] has this crazy woman voice that he can do. It’s insane; he sounds just like a woman! And so he called Jackson and told Jackson, ‘Hi, this is Kelly from production.’ Jackson was like, ‘Oh hey, what’s up?’ There were issues with everybody’s hair color and the cut and so they had just dyed it blonde. And so he was like, ‘We’re going to have to bring you into hair and makeup at 4:45am because we’re going to have to dye your hair back black.’ And Jackson was like, ‘Oh. Okay!’ Then Edi called him and was like, ‘Hey man, did you just get a call from this girl from production…what time do you have to go in?’ And Jackson was like, ‘4:45′ and he was like ‘oh.’ And he was like, ‘Did you talk to her?’ And he was like ‘Yeah,’ and then in his girl voice was like, ‘I am her!’ Jackson totally would’ve gotten up at 4:45 in the morning!”

Kellan Lutz: “I knew Jackson already. His mom and my mom are really close friends in the church, so my mom was like ‘Oh, I’m so glad you’ve got a good Christian boy to work with!’”

Nikki Reed: “The first time I met Jackson [Rathbone] was on the flight to Portland, and he had his guitar and his glasses, and I was thinking to myself, Oh boy, another introverted musician/actor. [Laughs] And I don’t really know what I thought of Rob. My opinion of Rob has always sort of been the same. He’s a great guy, he’s really talented, [but] we’re not as close as the rest of the cast.”

Jackson och 100 Monkeys kommer att vara närvarande vid NewCon 2009 nästa månad!
Såhär står det på NewCon´s hemsida:

As you’ll soon see, our events are more like festivals than conventions. With that said, this is an event created to inspire creativity and awareness of the arts in all forms. Come with an open mind and bring your imagination!

Everyone is part of our community and we want all of you to feel welcomed. Our goal is for everyone to have a good time and not worry about whether or not you can bring your camera or if you’re allowed to say hi to a cast member. Of course you can!

We gear our daily events around things that are fun for the guests and the cast, which include art and poetry contests as well as musical acts. Winners from these contests get a private meet & greet with attending cast and band members. In addition, the winning poet will also have their work read LIVE at Saturday’s ball by an attending cast member.

Jackson Rathbone’s band, 100 Monkeys, will soon be tweeting about their ‘design your own t-shirt’ contest. The winning shirt will actually get printed as a limited edition item and sold on their website. All of the money from the sale of the winning t-shirt will be donated to the Spencer Bell Legacy project. Which brings up a good point. A portion of ALL of proceeds from the NewCon Festival will be donated to the Spencer Bell Legacy Project.

If you don’t know about Spencer Bell yet, you should click on the Spencer Bell button on our site or visit www.SpencerBellMemorial.com.

The band will also be having an open JAM session for any musicians that want to participate. If that’s you, bring your bongos and let’s make it happen. Jackson and the band will also be bringing in other celebrities just for fun. It’s going to be a great weekend. 100 Monkeys will also be hosting a concert Saturday night after the ball.

We’ll have the webmasters from all of the top Twilight-inspired websites on-hand and in panel discussions talking to fans about starting and keeping up with their own websites.

There will be LIVE open forums on acting & modeling and how to break into the business. We will also have Q & A sessions with cast and crew members about anything and everything. If you’ve ever had a burning question that you just had to ask, here’s your chance.

Tickets to the NewCon Festival are limited, so get yours today and we’ll see you in Nashville!

TSR.com: Also it was obvious that the cast seem to be very tight. Do you guys have fun behind the scenes or is it a fairly serious atmosphere? Do you have any behind the scenes stories you’d like to share?
AG: We’re all like brothers and sisters, so we’re having fun all the time. Funny stories? Well, there’s a lot. But one funny thing we’re always doing with Kellan, Jack and Xavier is annoy Rob singing Katy Perry or Miley’s songs. We suck as singers, so we freak him out terribly.

TSR.com: What do you enjoy doing in your spare time (if you have any!)?
AG: Hahahaha! We’re always going to Starbucks with Jackson or going shopping with the girls. And we’re going to have dinner with the cast on weekends, or go to concerts. We always find something fun to do together.
