    Hi!

  2. Melissa says:

    Between acting and music careers which one do you like better?

  4. Tara P. says:

    First off I would like to say Hi to Kallie & Kassie. Loe the show.

    Ok Hello Jackson. I have a two part question.
    First off my husband & I have always wanted to name our first son Jackson and I ask everyone I know with this name this question. It is very awesome that I get to ask you. Do people call you Jackson or Jack? Which do you prefer? Do only family call you by your full name or the opposite?
    The second part of my question is would 100 Monkeys come tour the New England area? Especially somewhere like Massachusetts? I would love to see the band but it would also be a nice breath of fresh air here. There seems to be lots of cover / tribute bands in western Mass. Thank you for your time. Good luck with everything.
    Thank you to Kallie & Kassie for this opportunity. Keep up the awesome work!!! 🙂

    Tara

    Question for Jackson.

    Hi, out of all the movies you have been in, what was your favourite role to play?

  6. anne says:

    Jackson,
    Let me start by saying I have seen everything I could get my hands on with you in it, by the way you have intense presence in your work. That criminal minds show is a fav of mine and you knocked me breathless with your skills. So my Q is , what gets you to those deep places to draw that kind of intense presence you bring to ever part you do? You have to get it from some place, I feel like when you act it is hard not to focus on the big picture and I always get sucked into your performance like in Big stan, and even Twilight your parts kind of grab you and don’t let go! Anne
    By the way you are a original and have great staying power.

  7. Emily says:

    Hi Jackson,

  8. Kasia says:

Also, I have to say that I loved you in Twilight, and that you were brilliant on Criminal Minds! How did you prepare for such a complicated role as Adam/Amanda? And is there any chance 100 Monkeys will visit Norway some time?

  29. Natasha says:

    Hey Jackson, I would just like to say that I think you are a super talented guy, and I LOOOVE your sweet smile. I am a big country music girl and am not really into any other styles but i listened to some of your music and it is really good, completely different to the sad slow country i listen to. ok my questions are:
    – Will you be coming to Australia anytime soon? if so you should definitely come up north to queensland. best tourist spots.
    – Have/would you ever recorded a really sweet love song for anyone?
    – One of my favourite songs is Aerosmith’s- Don’t wanna miss a thing. I’d love to hear you sing it. Would you ever record a version of it?
    – as a kid, what song would you always sing over and over?
    – are your eyes naturally green, did they change since you were little?
    – i am a dancer and i’ve always wanted to learn swing. Where did you learn to swing dance? do you enjoy dancing?
    – What is something you have never been able to do but wish you could?
    – lastly, aside from singing and acting, what is something you absolutely love? eg. a smell, a feeling. i love dancing in the rain, the smell of fresh coffee, and staring at the sky- i think the sky is absolutely beautiful especially the stars.

    sorry about the long list of questions, you don’t have to use them all if you don’t want.

  34. Annette says:

    Hey Jackson! I saw your guest appearance on Criminal Minds and I loved it! That was a really hard role to portray, how did you prepare for it? Did the evil side of Adam, have an accent or anything that you gave her?

  35. Leslie K says:

    Question numer..o three: i read before that you have a cat, what’s its name? and do you like dogs? if so, what type of dog would you have?
    Question numer..o four: what type’s of chicks are you into?
    Question numer..o five: i figure i’ll throw in a twilight question…so have you read the saga? if not, why?

    would you and your band please come to the northwest panhandle area please? i live in pensacola, fl and it’s kinda hard to just go to caly when your broke. so if you would please kind sir come near this area.

    thanks!

  36. Jen says:

    Hi Jackson, I’m a big fan of your Twilight character, Jasper. Recently, your co-star Ashley said in an interview that time is the only thing that is keeping you two apart from dating each other. What are your thoughts on a possible relationship, if any, with her? Would you date her if time allows you to?

  37. Mrs Em Taylor Lautner says:

    Hey Jacksper!lol LOve JASPER! You made me OVER THE TOP INLOVE WITH HIM too! Sooo I was wondering…..Since you got alot of feedback from critics about how you played Jasper’s “in pain” look, do you plan on changing it to make it look better?(not that I don’t think that it’s already the best…:) )

  38. Mrs Em Taylor Lautner says:

    And….in The Last Airbender….do you have to hide your accent or change anything like that?? THANKS! And besides Taylor YOUR MY FAVE TWILIGHT ACTOR EVERRR! <3 Em

  40. Ashley says:

    Hi Jackson! Well, I just wanted to know (in case I become famous or something) What do you like for in a girl?

  41. Elizabeth says:

    Hey Jackson, I want to ask you:

    Are you dating Ashley? I read somewhere on the Internet that you have crushes on each other, but not dating because you don’t have enough time. If you both had more time, would you date? You guys are so cute together ^^
    What do you love most about Twilight?
    When you auditioned, did you think that you were gonna get the part?
    Why did you go for the part of Jasper?

    And I just want you to know that I’m your biggest fan in HK.

  42. Elizabeth says:
