She has gone from East End vixen to Hollywood vamp and it certainly suits British actress Judi Shekoni.
The Twilight star, 30, took some time out of her now very busty Breaking Dawn 2 promotional schedule to soak up some rays in LA.
And it seems the sea brings the star, who plays an Amazonian vampire, luck as it was on a cruise in the Bahamas a few years ago when she happened on the book that was to change her career.

She picked up her friend’s copy of Twilight and, like millions around the world, became hooked.Judi had enjoyed a successful spell as gangster’s moll Precious Hudson in EastEnders, but after moving to Los Angeles to pursue her career, she heard that the producers of the Twilight film franchise were casting for the role of Amazonian vampire Zafrina.
‘I wanted the role really badly, so I got an audition and I landed the part,’ she told The Daily Mail's Linda Das. ‘It was a dream come true’.
Beach beauty: Judi soaks up some rays – a well deserved break after a tiring promotional schedule for Breaking Dawn 2
The Twilight films have raked in more than 1.2 billion at the box office and have transformed Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella Swan, and Robert Pattinson, her vampire lover Edward Cullen, into worldwide stars.Judi, who does not comment on either R-Patz or K-Stew, does say is that Kristen, far from being the sullen actress of popular depiction, ‘is completely up for a laugh and for taking the mickey, while Rob is very British — self-deprecating and down-to-earth. Kristen set a precedent for having a good time and not taking it too seriously
‘But they both had a massive work ethic — they’d be on set before everyone and would leave after everybody else every single day. They were extremely mature and professional.’
Taking a break: Judi, who was only known for her EastEnder role, is now a Hollywood superstar
Judi spent six months filming Breaking Dawn Part 2 on location in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in the U.S., and in Vancouver and Squamish in Canada. ‘When I first arrived, there were Twi-hards at the airport, and kids following us around with their mums.’She has borne witness to the Twilight phenomenon called The Screamer — where fans attend a Twilight event and ‘scream and just keep screaming’. Even so, she is incredibly accommodating of her followers.
