Michael Welch (aka Mike Newton) recently spoke about the Breaking Dawn movie with E! Online at the Second Annual Thirst Project Gala in Beverly Hills. Read below to see what he had to say about the highly anticipated ‘honeymoon love scenes’  between Edward and Bella.

From E! Online

It’s no secret that Twi-hards everywhere are anxiously awaiting the much talked-about Breaking Dawn sex scene.

However, there’s at least one person out there who is not excited about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart onscreen steaminess

“I have not seen [it],” Michael Welch told us of Robsten’s Breaking Dawn bed scene at the Second Annual Thirst Project Gala in Beverly Hills. “And I’ll be honest, I can’t say I’m looking forward to it, because these are good friends of mine and I don’t really want to see that.”

For those of you who are excited to see Edward and Bella in the sack, Jackson Rathbone told us back in February just how steamy the scene will be.

“It’s definitely sexy,” he said. “It sizzles, man. It sizzles like bacon!”

The other hot guys of ‘Eclipse’

We hear enough about Taylor Lautner & Robert Pattinson… what about the other hotties from the Eclipse movie? Well, Seventeen Magazine has that covered. For their June/July issue they have profiled the other hotties from the film with new pics & quotes:

“What I learned through my experience of dating young girls was that they loved bad boys. They like guys that don’t really care or have some kind of drama going on. Because I was an artist, I’d paint drawings of the girls. I’d do romantic things that I do not do now because of my lack of luck then.” -Alex Meraz


“I’m in a funny transitional period in my life right now. I have so many people who have a lot of opinions on what I should be doing and that’s hard. I find myself resisting a lot, but I think it comes across as being a rebel or cocky or arrogant.” -Alex Meraz


“I’m constantly evolving as a person in everything — career, friends, geography, lifestyle, and relationships. I just keep going and going until I’m happy with everything.” -Charlie Bewley

“I think monogamy is really unnatural. I’m not saying I’m a whore, but I’ll definitely say…I don’t think being with one person — especially throughout your youth — is that good for someone. I’m quite a lone wolf.” -Charlie Bewley

On Tattooing his love for you: “I’m not into the whole inking-up-my-body thing, but if my girlfriend asked me to do it, I would. Her name is Kaiulani, so that would be a cool name on my back.” -Kiowa Gordon

“The first thing that attracts me to a girl is probably her clothes and her style, like cool jeans, sweet shoes, and a rocker tee.” -Kiowa Gordon


On finding the one: “Best friends can be soul mates if you love every little thing that they do.” -Kiowa Gordon

“Part of how I was able to connect so easily to [my character] Mike Newton is that I had a very similar experience in high school. In our case, she liked me first and I liked her later, and that crossover time never worked out.” -Michael Welch


“I’ve only been in two relationships in my life, and I’ve maybe hooked up with a grand total of five or six people. In terms of my priority and how I think about it, I’m a committed guy. It was always more appealing to me to hear stories about an old couple who’s been together since high school and they’re now 89 years old.” -Michael Welch
