Taylor Daniel Lautner was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Deborah, a software company worker, and Daniel Lautner, a pilot for Midwest Airlines. He and his younger sister Makena were raised in a well-mannered, Roman Catholic household in Hudsonville, Michigan. He is of English, German, Dutch, and Scottish descent. At the age of six, Taylor began studying martial arts at Fabiano's Karate School and he, along with his family, quickly noticed his unique and natural talent for the sport. He was soon invited to train with seven-time world karate champion Michael Chaturantabut (aka Mike Chat) and, at the age of eight, he was asked to represent his country in the 12-years-and-under division in the World Karate Association, where he became the Junior World Forms and Weapons champion, winning three gold medals. In 2003, Taylor continued to flourish in the martial arts circuit where he ranked number one in the world for NASKA's Black Belt Open Forms, Musical Weapons, Traditional Weapons, and Traditional Forms and, at the age of 12, he became the three-time Junior World Champion.

Monday, he'll be on TV in one of NBC's most-hyped shows of the new season, a spy drama called "My Own Worst Enemy," starring Christian Slater.
The buzz couldn't be bigger for his November movie, "Twilight," based on the phenomenally popular teen vampire books by Stephenie Meyer.
Last month, his cool quotient went up when he was a presenter at MTV's Video Music Awards, appearing with "Twilight" co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.
As Kimberly writes on the Taylor Lautner fan Web site: "Taylor is SO SO SO SO SO HOT!"
