How New Moon's Robert Pattinson can prepare for the spotlight and scrutiny
As a household name to millions of people around the world, Twilight, New Moon, and Little Ashes star Robert Pattinson’s short, but significant, time in the media spotlight has been, well, eventful. At the behest of the mainstream media, rumors have encircled the public concerning this young man on a near-constant basis.
For example, last week we saw the ridiculousness of it all reach new heights with the controversial “smell” taglines which headed far too many articles for Rob’s fans’ comforts. In turn, we discussed the potential need for Rob to get his hands on a good publicist, and quick. Now, perhaps an appropriate question is how to ensnare the cacophony of ridicule that has been centered around Robert Pattinson lately? Read more...

Despite his best efforts, Twilight's Robert Pattinson still can't catch a break
Did I hear that correctly, or did someone just say that Robert Pattinson has been named the 100th most unsexy man alive?
Yes, it's true, people. The media's love/hate-affair with our beloved stars of Twilight continues to roll right on through. The victim this time? None other than Robert Pattinson. Surprised? Don't be. First, he's sexy, then he smells, then he's unsexy. What's it going to be next week?

Bless his heart for tolerating the constant, cruel, and completely unfounded mud-slinging that continues to be launched his way. If I had a nickel for everytime someone called him a dirty (pun intended) word, I'd surely be rich by now. Read more...

The headmaster of a Boston high school was forced to release a statement denying the rumour that a vampire was loose on campus. The clarification became necessary after several students contacted local media claiming a blood sucker was roaming the prestigious Boston Latin School.

Taking a Twilight Bite Out of the New Moon Rumors
Now that a lot of rumors surrounding the Twilight sequel New Moon have been proven false, it's kind of funny to traverse the web and look back at the apparent and so-called bogus New Moon craziness. The latest to come down the Twilight pike is the revelation by Ashley Tisdale that Vanessa Hudgens never auditioned for New Moon at all. Since we live in an online entertainment age where the gap between confirmation and speculation has been reduced to minutes, if not seconds, it's become increasingly difficult for larger, mainstream entertainment outlets to prevent from getting out-scooped by smaller websites that number in the thousands. In fact, it's easier than ever for fans to get Twilight hoodwinked and New Moon hornswaggled now that the web seems to be one big message board. Read the whole article, including the Madonna rumors

‘New Moon’ Finds Its Wolf Pack!
If you follow Stephenie Meyer’s official website, you might have already heard this news, but we’re bringing it to you anyway. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chris Weitz has cast the Wolf Pack for “New Moon”, all of whom will make their big screen debut in the “Twilight” sequel.

All the actors are of Native American descent, with Sioux, Purepecha and Hualapai being the tribes represented among the new cast members. That’s a good thing for fans of the series and the Native American community, and it’s been one of the major perks of the “Twilight” name. The series is a big enough draw that Summit can focus on casting the characters appropriately rather than landing big star power. Read more...

Twilight News for March 11 - Deleted Scenes from Twilight!

Whimpering, Improv, And Sublimated Sexuality In Twilight Deleted Scenes
Wait, you mean they actually cut some of the whiny, I'm-sore-from-dry-humping-you-all-day noises from the movie Twilight? Some new deleted scenes make the rest of the movie look watchable by comparison.

As Bella rolls about with the hunky Edward on the woodland floor, she nervously asks, "Do you wanna taste?" But it's okay - because she means her blood, not sex. So when she sticks her finger in his mouth, and they make little PG-rated whimpers, I guess that's blood-drinking third base. It's official: Twilight is like late night Cinemax, no action but all the noise. Read more...
