Kellan Lutz doesn’t want people to see him as “a piece of meat”.

Twilight hottie Kellan is under no illusions about the nature of his stardom.

“Producers and studios know what sells,” the actor told UsMagazine.com during an interview.

“It’s nice to be one of the guys that can help sell a movie by taking his shirt off.”

“By no means do I want to be a piece of meat for the rest of my career. It’s funny when you get asked to do a talk show, and then they follow it up with requesting you take your shirt off.”
