When Nikki Reed stopped by "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Tuesday night, the conversation quickly turned to the "Eclipse" star's athletic prowess. In the third film in the "Twilight Saga" Reed and the rest of the Cullen clan spring into action to battle an army of evil vampires, so Kimmel wondered if she's an athlete in real life.
"I think so. I quit smoking, like, a year ago — actually July 5 is my one year [anniversary]," she told Kimmel. "It's really exciting. Actually, I'm probably the most excited about that, so I became more athletic after."
So, what sorts of sports does Reed partake in? "A lot of water sports. I surf. I water ski. I box. Apparently, now I snow ski," she said. "Nothing on a snowboard, though. For some reason, it doesn't make sense."
Kimmel perked up at the thought of Reed boxing and told her to try punching him in the stomach. "Don't encourage violence," Reed responded, flustered. "I don't know how I feel. Wait! We're really going to do this right now. But that's not really a fair request. This doesn't make sense. Let's just hug it out and comment on how good we smell."
That wasn't good enough for Kimmel, who really wanted her to punch him, and not even her few playful jabs would do. "I feel like I'm going to get sued," Reed protested. "I'll give you a medium punch. I don't want to play this game.
"This reminds me of being a little kid with my brother," she said before giving him a bit of a harder punch. "Am I in trouble? I didn't give you a full on."
