It was just a matter of time before Twilight’s Taylor Lautner scored his own Teen Vogue cover.  However, we’re embarrassed to admit we had no idea that a Team Jacob  (after his Twilight character Jacob Black) existed.

Oh, but it does –  boy does it ever! And Taylor thinks he has the stereotypical Team Jacob lady nailed. According to Lautner:

“If she likes having a really close friendship with a guy being able to tell him anything, and then having that friendship slowly transform into something more…I find myself using the word transform a lot lately,” he explains, “because that’s what Jacob does.”

Got that girls? Taylor just wants to be friends…really close friends…

Very soon! Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner, along with the rest of the Twilight cast will be reassembling in Vancouver, British Columbia, on Aug. 17, when they will begin production on Eclipse, the third installment of the Stephenie Meyer franchise, according to reports.
