When Lea took the stage, she was actually star struck by Taylor and went to hug him as soon as he came on stage laughing like a school girl and blushing with excitement. After hugging Lea, Taylor spoke on stage about receiving a grant for and on behalf of the Sundance Film Festival and said, "I am so honored to be here today to accept this very generous grant!"

Michele was as giddy as any Twilight fan can be after meeting their favorite werewolf and she was able to leave a big impression on the actor. She felt she may have scared him but Taylor thought she was a "doll". "I was so nervous. I was just shaking and shaking," Michele stated in an E!Online interview. She added that the pictures taken during the event with the two of them together will be their wedding picture.  "He is going to think I'm crazy," she said. But Lautner did not think she was crazy. "I love her. I had never met her before. She is such a doll," Lautner said.

Even though Michele would love to see Lautner appear on Glee which came as a suggestion after their meeting, Lautner would rather not do it. "I definitely can't sing," he said. "That would be a nightmare."
