25 Things You Don’t Know About Me!

Pop culture queen! Ashley Greene may be a Hollywood star, but it turns out she likes to consume entertainment just as much as she enjoys being a part of it.

While Greene, 35, became a household name with her role as vampire Alice Cullen in the Twilight franchise, her interest in the glittering lights of Los Angeles began decades earlier.

“I was part of the Mary-Kate and Ashley [Olsen] Fan Club growing up,” the Florida native exclusively tells Us Weekly. As soon as she was old enough to do so, she headed west to the City of Angels. “I graduated high school early to move to L.A. at 17 — and told almost no one of my plans,” Greene reveals.

Her love for the industry has only continued throughout her career. The Rogue alum’s favorite actress is Cate Blanchett, she tells Us, and she once had the opportunity to read with Anthony Hopkins at an audition. “He is magnetic and I was completely starstruck,” Greene recalls of briefly working alongside the Hannibal icon, 84. “I didn’t get the job, but I was still on cloud nine.”

As for her taste in music, the Twilight star and her husband, Australian director Paul Khoury, are known to belt out some R&B.

“Paul and I sing Usher to each other at least three times a week, but ‘our song’ is ‘Sure Thing’ by Miguel,” Greene says.
