Taylor Lautner: Karate Kid!

Flash back 5 years, before you ever knew Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black in Twilight or even as Sharkboy -- Taylor was definitely a Karate Kid!

Check out these vintage vids from a Karate competition Taylor entered when he was just 11 years old! (One more video after the jump)

Tell TWIST, after seeing his skills, do you Taylor will be able to play Jacob Black as a werewolf in the Twilight sequel, New Moon? Comment below!

XO!

OH! One more thing! What do you think of Taylor's blue hair? Is it a hit or a miss?

OMG I like Karate but I havent actualy seen people do it but gosh is really good or what he was only 11 doing that im 12 now and I can never pull that off I would hate to get into an arguement with him he should be my new bodyguard!!!!! Go Taylor!!!!!

I spelled wearwolf wrong on my 1st comment so I'm just setting it straight. It's wearwolf!!! :-) Or at least, that's how I'm gonna spell it!!!

lol
he's so cute!
and his hair wasn't blue twist it was the lights
hehe but he's totally gonna rock in new moon
xoxo

i love the jonas brothers i went to almost all of their concerts i know joe jonas we call eachother sometimes!:) he's so funny. so is nick and keven. if any one else has questions or wants 2 be my pin pall e-maill me at HRluvmydogs@aol.com

I think Taylor will be amazing in New Moon
He's so cute!
I don't know why everybody is so worried that he won't fit the part!
I mean no offense but Kristen Stewart kinda sucked as Bella and nobody is trying to take that role from her!

Ok, I just saw the 1st YouTube clip on this page of Taylor and he did rock!! Go Taylor!!!! I didn't watch the second clip because it was taking a while to load, and because I was watching the Debby Ryan clip! :-)

I just have to say 1 word
"DAMN!!!!!" I was saying that the hole time. Srry for the curse.

look again nohema!! his hair was actually blue! anyways, it was a hit! i stick up for taylor in anything!! i take tae kwon do but man i do not wnt 2 fight wit him! go taylor! btw, im Juanita Lautner, even though he has a girlfrend, idc, hes still mine!!!! anyways, he's rlly fast 2! o nd now, he has an eight pack!

hotttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!taylor lautner

oomggg,,,he will be amazing in new moon i mean common u guys u saw the vid he will pull it off if he become a worewolf in new moon...
first,jacob in twilight he wasnt that good i mean i didnt find anything really intresting in his character!!!!but if they make him play the role of a worewolf it wiill be awsome....in second...bella's character in edward in the movie they
were so weired .....i mean kristen didnt act bella that good at all,,, her face impression was mostly the same, she totally sucked playing that role and it just wasnt good...edward he was okay...i did love the movie it was awsome but they cud have made it so much better then it is.....but if u realise bella in edward in the movie they are so akward together in ther supposed to be in lovee..

i'm personally not a big fan of jacob in the books, but even thinking of replacing him in the movie is a sure sign of pure stupidity. the kid screams jacob black for crying out loud!!!!! like seriously r they stupid?!?!?! and i hav2 agree with some people wen they say that the movie could've been better... if they had done it more like the actual book it would've been waaaaaaaaay awsome.and no affence 2 any twilight fans(cause im totally obsessed 2!) but the movie was like crap compared 2 the book...but maybe thats just me...but i thought the movie could've been better... but back 2 taylor, he really should be jacob black!!!! its as though stephanie meyer had him in mind while writting the book!!!he fits his description perfectly!!! and he doesnt hav 2 much of a baby-face 2 play jacob!!!! he may b a bit 2 short but they could always use some special effects 4 that!!!DONT B STUPID AND CHEAP SUMIT!!!!! KEEP TAYLOR LAUNTER!!!THAT OTHER GUY U WERE THINKIN OF USING DOESNT EVN COME CLOSE 2 A JACOB BLACK!!!!!! KEEP TAYLOR!!!!!!

wowza I rember seeing this on tv, becouse I was in karate and I wanted to learn more

Wow he was so cute back then !!! and he was REALLY good at karate !!!!!!! he is SO sexy !!! :]

he is soooooo cute when he was 11 but he is even hotter now i hope he is going to play jacob blake i will be soo sad if he does not play him i love him in twilight :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

omg taylor is SO HOT.I seen Twilight like 10 times.

Hey Taylor you look so cute either if your little of big your still cute. I sometimes look at your smile and beutiful face and you look like prince charming. hotttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i used to take xma classes like taylor but in my classes you had to go in leadership!!!!!!!!!!

Personally i didn't really like the blue hair, I mean it wasent aweful but it wasn't... him. But i dont know him so couldn't say if it was him or not. But I hope that he does come back for New Moon, but he's too small to be Jacob Black!! Ahhhh!! GROW TAYLOR GROW!!! Go to McDonalds and eat 5 hundred bigmacs and a bajillion sodas!! But if he can't grow soon enought it would be better to have someone else play Jacob Black because it would totally just ruin the movie if he was still almost the same size as Bella, in the book it says that he "towers" over bella, and Taylor doesn't TOWER over Kristen... Either Kristens gotta shrink or Taylor gotta grow. I think that, that Micheal Guy or whatever his name is, would be perfect for the part of Jacob! He looks exactly like Taylor, all he needs to do is get some fangs and he'll be good!

omg!!! i luv taylor!!!! and id think no one should replace taylor in twilight hes 2 smexy!!!lol

OMG, I haven't read the book or seen the movie! I'm crazy! I want to buy the book but it's so expensive!
Anyway, I think Robert Pattinson is like, ten times cuter than Taylor Lautner! They're both so charming I can't believe I'm saying this, but Robert is my dream boy. I wish he really was a vampire. :-D

I soooooo agree with Olivia that Rob is cuter. I tell everyone at school "Be happy you know me 'cause I'm gonna marry Robert Pattinson from Twilight and Harry Potter." LOL!!!! I'm not kidding, I know everything there is to know about him.(Rob) Well, love you Rob! And if you like Rob too comment after this. And always stay true to him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love,Megan Pattinson

i think taylor lautner i sexy hott
with 2 t's he is the cuttest guy ever born
i am jealous of his sister makena lautner

Taylor is waaaaaaayyyyyy!!!!! cuter than Rob i
mean he may have a long neck but he is still sexier
he also has a 8 pack but i think that it is sprayed on
because he is so scrawny! but you know just because
he has a little flaw you cant just say he is uglier than
Rob whats-his-face?
