New Interview – Justin Chon Talks Charity and ‘Eclipse’

28 Comments January 20, 2010 by Filed Under: Justin Chon


Wired.com has a new interview with Eclipse human Justin Chon (aka Eric) discussing the Center for Pacific Asian Family and the Twilight Saga – Eclipse.

Justin was also asked if he has read all the books. He said that he has, however, he has not read the 4th book yet. And said that he was not sure if he was going to be in the last movie or not. Interesting.

He also said that Eclipse will be very similar to the book, just way more action.

Here are the details of the Chase Community Giving contest that Justin is asking people to help out the Center for Pacific Asian Families in winning -

What if all it took to help a charity raise $1 million was a simple online vote? Would you help then? The Center for the Pacific Asian Family hopes so, as the nonprofit competes with 99 other charities in the Chase Community Giving contest on Facebook.

CPAF, which helps Asian Pacific Islanders who have been victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, has lined up some impressive supporters for its star-powered public service announcements, including actor Justin Chon from the Twilight films. Other CPAF supporters include John Cho (Star Trek), Sandra Oh (Grey’s Anatomy), Aaron Yoo (21, Disturbia), Archie Kao (CSI), Joe Hahn (Linkin Park) and Lisa Ling (Oprah).

The Chase Community Giving contest, with its social media angle and the involvement of so many celebrities, is a great way to get some attention to organizations like Center for the Pacific Asian Family, which runs a 24-hour support line, emergency and transitional shelters, and counseling services for victims and their families. All it takes to help out is a vote, whether it’s for CPAF or one of the other 99 charities. It won’t cost you a dime. Winners will be announced Saturday.

If you would like to help out Justin and the cause he is supporting you can go here to vote!

    Yeah I get that. But I mean, how can you NOT read it?! As a fan of the books, how can he stand not knowing what happens exactly after Eclipse?!

  • leahreallyitis

    I agree they have hearts of gold:)

  • GIVENNY_Robsten Exists

    I´m weird.
    I bought the saga after Twilight came out, and the first book I read was BD.

    I lack of self-control :(

    *groans* i hate having to vote for charities like this… there's so many good ones, how do you choose?? I wish I were rich enough to be a philanthropist.

  • leahreallyitis

    I did that too:) as soon as I was done with Ecilpse I mean like seconds after I was done LOL I started reading BD:)

  • DDB_DazzledByRob TeamElevator

    BD was the first book you read after Twilight?? Why did you do that?!
    Don't you regret that you knew the ending before you read NM and Eclipse?
    LOL

  • GIVENNY_Robsten Exists

    I totally understand you.

  • DDB_DazzledByRob TeamElevator

    LOL
    My friends said that I should wait a bit before reading BD, but after I finished Eclipse I immediately grabbed BD. I really have no self-control when it comes to the Twilight Saga *sigh*

  • GIVENNY_Robsten Exists

    Idk why I did that lol.

    I have no regrets about it :)

  • IndiesR

    Here, here!

  • IndiesR

    It just good to see these guys out and supporting worthy causes. :)

  • DDB_DazzledByRob TeamElevator

    I don't have any kind of self-control when it comes to the Twilight Saga:) And I'm not ashamed of it! lol

  • GIVENNY_Robsten Exists

    hahaha

    You aren´t the only one.
    I think no one of us have self- control when it come to this Saga.

    Maybe, that´s the way we show our love for it.

    same here… lol… after I read Eclipse I just had to know what happens next… I was completely obsessed, I've read all four books within four days… I just couldn't stop… And after I finished BD I started again with Twilight… hehe

  • DDB_DazzledByRob TeamElevator

    I did the same thing! After I finished BD I started reading Twilight again. And when I was finished reading all the 4 books, I started over again..lol..I did that about 5 times before I was able to put the books down and stop reading…That lasted for like 2 weeks, and then I just had to read all 4 books again..LOL

  • http://twitter.com/MythicMonster MythicalMonster

    Haha, that sounds exactly like me… lol :)

    He looks so young…I was so surprised to hear about his age….It's kinda cool to see them all involved like that…But he's right…It is a BIG possibility that he will not be in BD:( too bad…
