The legendary Hollywood director talked about his experiences working with Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner.  Gary is famous for his Bronx accent, tongue-in-cheek humor, and being the starting point of many actors’ careers. Gary was publicly recognized at the Valentine’s Day premiere by Anne Hathaway for starting her career.

“What’s the first thing Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift had to do when they started shooting Valentine’s Day?

Lock lips!

“I always start with the kissing scenes,” director Garry Marshall told me at last night’s Hollywood premiere of the star-studded romantic comedy. “The first thing they did was kiss.”

So how did it go?

“The first three were nice,” Marshall said. “By the fourth I think they started going together. I don’t know what the hell happened, but somewhere in the fifth or sixth take they were dating.”

Access Hollywood caught up with Taylor on the red carpet and asked him about turning 18 and Breaking Dawn:

“What do you have planned for you 18th birthday?” Shaun asked.

“Absolutely nothing really,” Taylor told Access. “I mean, I’ll spend time with family and friends… I don’t like to do anything huge, but it is 18, so, it’s kind of a big one I guess.”

Taylor said he wouldn’t be celebrating his big day with Taylor Swift.

“I believe she’s overseas touring. It’s a bummer she couldn’t make it [to the premiere], but I’m sure everyone will enjoy watching her,” Taylor told Access.

As for “Twilight” news, Taylor explained that he and the rest of the cast are eagerly waiting to find out the details on “Breaking Dawn,” just like all the fans.”

According to the Press Association, Taylor’s presence cause quite the stir:

“Taylor Lautner easily upstaged his A-list co-stars at the Hollywood premiere of new movie Valentine’s Day.

Screams from fans of the Twilight star were deafening on the red carpet, while celebrity castmates Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel and Ashton Kutcher and his wife Demi Moore were largely ignored by the crowd.”

File this under just too cute for words. Taylor Lautner’s hometown decided to send their local boy Valentine’s Day cards in honor of his Hollywood success and in honor of teh title of his current movie.

“In a matter of a couple of weeks, The Press received hundreds of pieces of mail: letters, poems, cards and gifts, all of them very sweet.

None were cuter than a batch of four cards we received from Grand Rapids’ Amaya sisters: Amber, 11; Shelby, 10; Quinn, 5; and Addison, 3.

“Of course, the younger ones are into whatever the older ones are into, so they all had to make cards,” said Mom, Cynthia Amaya.

At the Amaya house, the squeal factor hits its highest with sixth-grader Amber.

“(She) is obsessed with the ‘Twilight’ series and can’t wait for the next movie (‘Eclipse’) to come out in June,” Amaya said. “She’s already planning her birthday around the release of the movie. Christmas presents were all about ‘Twilight’ — shirts, bracelets, you name it.”

Artistically speaking, Amber’s card was made in the shape of a heart and featured “Be Mine” in little heart drawings. Younger sisters Quinn and Addison drew pictures of themselves with Lautner (although — shhhh, don’t tell anybody — Addison is more of an Edward fan).

Fifth-grader Shelby was a little more subdued, saying, “What’s up!” on her card, then proclaiming: “I Hope You Have the Best Valentine’s Day Ever!”
