Ashley Greene: How I'm Getting Through 'A Rough Few Months'

Originally posted 05/15/2013 04:20PM

Two months after losing her beloved fox terrier in an apartment fire, Twilight's Ashley Greene has found a surefire way to move forward with her loss: shifting her focus to helping others.

"Obviously, I've had a rough few months, but I'm doing okay," she tells PEOPLE. "I'm exploring new opportunities, and I try to participate in charity events as much as possible."

"It's very important to me to focus on others, not just myself. You look at children with cancer and you think, 'Wow, it really puts my own problems into perspective.' Not to say that what we all go through isn't important, but there are people who have much greater problems that they deal with every day."

The actor will star in Tatua as a tattooed assassin whose weapons are extracted from the ink on his body. The process is a strain on the hit man, but he must put that aside when his son is kidnapped by a dangerous foe.

Hugh Jackman is set to reprise his role as Wolverine in X-Men: Days of Future Past, the Hollywood Reporter. Ian McKellen (Magneto) and Patrick Stewart (Professor Xavier), will also be joining Jennifer Lawrence, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Nicholas Hoult.

Kellan Lutz Reveals His Dating M.O.

Originally posted 08/27/2012 11:00AM

After experiencing a fair amount of drama in the dating department, Twilight hunk Kellan Lutz has found the secret to winning a girl's heart: honesty.

"I've become more mature when it comes to women and relationships," Lutz, 27, told PEOPLE at Heineken's U.S. Open Player Party in New York City on Friday. "My M.O. now is to be who I really am and not be fake in order for a girl to like me back."

The actor, who previously dated 90210 actress AnnaLynne McCord, admits that in the past he would tell some lies or make exaggerations to impress a girl.

"I was in this one relationship where I told her things about myself that wasn't really me," Lutz says. "I said I liked this certain band only because she liked them. Then she bought me tickets to their concert and I was stuck in going. It's not fair to her and to me."

Nikki Reed & Paul McDonald Get Affectionate at Twilight Afterparty

After meeting and greeting throngs of fans waiting for hours outside the San Diego Convention Center, the stars of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2, Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, Nikki Reed and more, headed to Hard Rock Hotel's Float Lounge to party.

While some (like Peter Facinelli and new dad Jackson Rathbone) skipped the red carpet, newlyweds Reed and hubby Paul McDonald walked together, and the former Idol contestant waited patiently, sipping a drink while his wife did interviews. When she finished, he snaked his arm around her waist, then Reed gave her hubby's butt a little pinch before heading inside the party, where the couple mingled with fellow guests.

Lutz seemingly started the night with dessert: he was spotted snacking on frozen yogurt inside a VIP cabana, though he later grabbed a slider from a waitress's tray.
