She's still meant to be like the most beautiful you can imagine!
But I have to admit that Nikki really convinced me in the movie, she was a really good Rosalie! Maybe the look isn't perfect, but while reading the books now I totally see Nikki as Rosalie. I think she'll be great in BD!
Thanks exactly how I felt too! I LOVE Nikki Reed but I was so unsure of her playing Rosalie for the reasons you said. But once I saw her in the movie I was instantly convinced. And I know I've said it so many times on here before I honestly cannot wait to see more of her in the upcomming movies!

Oh come on, please don't tell me that they couldn't get anyone else to be Rosalie???
I saw the movie before reading the books so i didn't really pay much attention to her but now that i go back and look at pics and stuff they really needed someone more striking, more beautiful.
That's just my opinion anyway -

I agree with you guys.
when i heard nikki was casted i was like....WTF?! SHE ISNT ALL THAT BEAUTIFUL LIKE ROSE!!
but after watching twilight, she convinced me. she totally embody the whole *itch character to bella that rose is. i was like...WOW NIKKI IS A PRETTY COOL ROSE....plus her & kellen are cute as Emmett & Rosalie. So i dont mind. i cant wait to see her in the next films.

I'm going to have to agree with what the others said. Not that Nikki isn't beautiful but I was sort of expecting someone else when I was reading the books. I think its just because of all the makeup and how they dyed her hair. But damn, does that girl have some curves. (That's one thing I'm not complaining about!)

As far as acting goes, completely pulls off as Rose!

She's not as beautiful als a Rosalie should be, but she convinces us by her acting that she is how a Rosalie should be. Her acting like Rose is so great that I can look past that "being-beautiful-detail". :D (If you know what I mean :roll: )

I thought they would've casted someone who actually has blonde hair. Although I pictured Rosalie very differently, Nikki is a good actress and I think she pulled off the Rosealie attitude really well.

she may not have been the Rosalie that I pictured but after seeing the movie I was a little more convinced...I thought the attitude she brought was absolutely the Rose I had in my head...I don't think there is an actress who could bring the look of Rose to the screen though but Nikki Reed did a good job IMO

I just realized a while back that Nikki is my slightly older version of Leah. Lol. You can totally tell that she's got some Native American blood in her when she's not plastered with makeup.

However, her performance as Rosalie was AMAZING. She's not my image of Rosalie, but she did great. I mean, think she's BEAUTIFUL! GORGEOUS! Loved her since Thirteen. But.. I don't know. I always pictured Rosalie with more of a generic but stunning face. Lol. But I loved the scene where she broke the bowl, and the whole, "Why? Why should I protect her? She means nothing to me." scene was perfect.

Ugh. The woman is just AMAZING, and she has really adorable chemistry with Kellan.

I think Nikki Reed did an AMAZING job as Rosalie Hale. :P I was very nervous at first because she does not have pale skin at all. But I did know she was very beautiful and could pull off Rosalie's character very well just after seeing the first few little trailers and pictures on the set.
