If you're on Twitter and you don't follow Alex Meraz, who plays the werewolf, Paul, in the Twilight Saga, then you missed a doozie last night. Alex apparently felt the need to PUBLICLY bash the upcoming movie, Valentine's Day, featuring Twilight co-star and fellow werewolf, Taylor Lautner. The thing is, I sort of agree with Alex. This movie looks like the American version of Love, Actually. Like Love, Actually, Valentine's Day has a cast of superstars bigger than the state of Texas. It has great actors (ex: Julia Roberts) and not so good actors (ex: Jessica Biel).
HOWEVER...I am a total nobody and what I think DOES NOT MATTER. I am all for free speech, but when you are in the public eye, it is really not a good idea to go on an open forum like Twitter and spout unfavorable comments about your co-star and people you may want to work with in the future. Especially when you've got media like E! following you. Trust me, they didn't miss these tweets. THEN, Alex starts doing some serious back peddling that comes off more like CYA than anything else.
Alex, dear, we love you, we really do, but please think twice about your Twitter subject matter. Please save opinions like these for that gorgeous wife of yours and stick to tweeting about the weather or your public appearances. We'd hate for your career to suffer. Oh, and do you really not know how to spell the word "scheme"?
