(Jerusalem) - Hollywood silver screen heartthrob, Kellan Lutz, who portrays Emmett Cullen in the wildly successful "Twilight" vampire movie series, along with other top name celebrities such as Miguel Ferrer (TV's "Crossing Jordan"), Didier Hernandez and Carolina Ovalle (Latina pop music stars), and John Carlson ( American Talk Radio Host), joined renowned Rabbi Irwin Katsof at the Inbal Jerusalem Hotel, during the course of their recent week-long journey across the Jewish State, which was sponsored by "America's Voices in Israel" ( part of the Conference of President's of Major American Jewish Organizations), as well as El Al Israel Airlines and Israel's Ministry of Information & Diaspora Affairs. Rabbi Katsof is the Director of America's Voices in Israel.
The stars not only enjoyed the hotel's 5-star deluxe accommodations, they also relished every "bite" of the lavish meals prepared by Inbal Jerusalem Hotel Executive Chef Moti Bochbut.
At a press conference held in one of the hotel's upscale dining rooms, Lutz heaped praise on "America's Voices in Israel" and the polite Israeli fans of "Twilight" that were only too happy to meet him in the heart of Jerusalem.
Said Lutz, "This has been such an incredible trip, because as one who is an action junkie like myself, Israel has so much to offer in terms of experiencing history, religion and fun-filled activities, like swimming, off-road jeeping, bicycling etc. Just waking up to the amazing color tones that blanket Jerusalem in the morning is something that I'll never forget. And, I purposely dressed down, because I wanted to fit in and embrace the culture and meet people. After I Twittered my fans to meet me one evening at the Jaffa Gate (Old City), these really nice young girls showed up and it was just so much fun to speak with them."
