Super hunk and Twilight star Cam Gigandet reveals in the latest issue of Men’s Health that he “loves pain.”
Gigandet tells the mag this story: Last summer, water-skiing with his family in Washington State, Gigandet slammed into a buoy. It hurt like hell, but “I continued skiing just so my parents wouldn’t freak out.”
He drove nearly 18 hours back to L.A. before having his leg checked out. Turns out he had a cracked fibula.
Wow! He’s not kidding.
Gigandet, 26, felt the hurt in his career when he was fired from his first big job on The Young and the Restless.
“So much relies on your confidence,” he says. “To be let go from a soap opera is the most embarrassing confidence basher in the world.
It’s like, ‘Oh, if I’m not good enough for that, I’m not good enough for anything.’ So that was tough. But you learn that none of that stuff matters. You keep pushing forward.”
He also offers this bit of advice when it comes to fear in life.
“That brings out so many insecurities. There’s so much fear of failure because it’s so rampant, it’s everywhere.
It was paralyzing to the point where I couldn’t get work or enjoy anything. To get where I am, I had to learn to live with fear. It’s all fear. You have to let go of that and keep moving forward.”
Twilight hits theaters November 21.
