Taylor Lautner admits he’s still struggling to deal with the attention he gets from the paparazzi.

The actor — who shot to fame in the Twilight movie franchise — say it isn’t “normal” to be constantly followed by photographers.

“You can’t ever get really used to it, because it’s not normal to have people snapping pictures of everything you do,” the 17-year-old tells Teen Vogue. “You just have to try not to let it affect you.”

Of his rise to fame, Taylor said, “I think the fans would love anybody who played Jacob … I’m just lucky to be the one who got the chance.”

Taylor also revealed that his karate coach — who also happened to have been a blue Power Ranger — inspired him to get into acting.

“At first, I wasn’t interested,” he says. But by the end of the month, “I liked it.”

Lautner stays mum when it comes to the gossip surrounding costars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson — or his own rumored relationship with Disney’s Selena Gomez.

“She’s a great girl,” he says.
