The lovely Judi Shekoni will be playing the Amazonian vampire Zafrina in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. She took some time from her busy filming schedule to talk with Team-Twilight! Read on for what she had to say about being destined to play her role, charities she is interested in, Zac Efron as Edward Cullen, working with Mackenzie Foy, and her love for Jake Gyllenhaal. You can also find out why I want her to be my new BFF.
TT: Your character has a lot of interaction with Renesmee. Have you spent much time with Mackenzie [Foy]?
JS: I have, yeah, and she�s so lovely, such an amazing child. Like when I have children, I want them to be like her, just so well brought up. And that�s pretty much the consensus of everywhere and everyone, just saying what a well brought up, polite girl that she is. And very mature, as well, for her age. She�s super lovely, and it�s great, the relationship that they [Zafrina and Renesmee] have in the book is very strong and powerful and I hope that it carries across on screen.
TT: Are you a Robert Pattinson fan?
JS: Of course! Working with him for this long, and reading all the books. I was always an Edward fan reading the books, so yes.
TT: Well, fans really really freak out over Rob, Kristen and Taylor. Do you have a particular celebrity that you would freak out over if you saw them in person? Or maybe you would hang their posters in your room in secret?
JS: I watched Source Code with Jake Gyllenhaal. And I had to get on my Twitter and ask people if they love him, because I loved him. And I did a little poll where I asked Jake Gyllenhaal vs. Leonardo Dicaprio, and for me, most people, Jake Gyllenhaal won. I think because he has a vulnerability, as well as a sexuality, which is really nice. Also, Ian Somerhalder from Vampire Diaries. Very good-looking.
TT: I�m guessing The Twilight Saga is going to introduce you to a giant mass of people that may not know who you are right now. Are you prepared for the fandom and its intensity?
JS: I can�t really imagine that so much. In England, I was in a TV show which raised my profile over there. To be honest, with that, I enjoyed it. I like meeting people. I like talking about my work. I don�t really have any secrets that I am trying to hide or something. I�m not secretly dating the President, or anything like that. Don�t have a criminal record or anything. For me, if that occurs, then I definitely embrace it. In this industry I never really take anything for granted, so I guess I�ll see what happens at the other end. If it does happen and it means that people want to talk to me or whatever then I am so available.
TT: The fans really appreciate when you seem approachable or available, which is why fans love when celebrities are active on Twitter or Facebook.
JS: I love talking on Twitter. It�s so nice. It was my birthday on Thursday, and I got so many great messages on Twitter and on Facebook. Everyone is so nice on Twitter. I like talking to people. And if people see me out, they can come up and talk to me. I am not going to run away and hide.
