I hope Paul McDonald is digging all the questions about his new girlfriend, Twilight’s Nikki Reed! It’s a major topic of conversation as he makes his way around the NYC media circuit!
“I’m really excited about this one, ” Paul tells US weekly, “We went to Malibu the other day and hung out a little bit on my day off. On my one day off, I got to relax and be a grownup again. I ate some fried fish, drank a cold beverage. Life is good, I was happy about that. She’s been supportive of this whole thing, and I’m supportive of everything she does.”
Supporting Nikki includes familiarizing himself with the Twilight series, as he tells TV Guide, “I’m going to have be a Twilight fan!”
Thankfully, Nikki wasn’t the sole topic of conversation. About possibly cutting an album this summer, Paul tells US,
We’re still in the Idol craziness, so I’m trying to figure [everything] out. I’ve got a bunch of new material and I’ve talked with a bunch of the producers I got to work with on the show and they’re excited, because I would always go in there and show them my original stuff in between us doing the covers. We’re literally all winners right now because we’ve met the people that are in the top of the business. It would take years of touring [to make connections otherwise]. That’s what I was telling these kids, ‘You don’t know how good you have it right now. It takes years!’
