Twilight and Breaking Dawn News for April 11

Robert Pattinson guarded by police after Twilight sex photos leak

Security has been tightened on set after the saucy snaps showing Edward Cullen (Pattinson) and Bella Swan (Stewart) indulging in a night of passion made it onto the internet.
Summit Entertainment said they were 'heartbroken' after hackers broke into an email account and stole the raw Twilight footage.
The film studio quickly took the pictures down - one showing Edward grabbing a headboard and the other showing the couple fast asleep in bed.
The Daily Mail reports that off-duty police officers are now surrounding the set to prevent any further leaks. Link...

Scam Alert: Twilight: Breaking Dawn Facebook game is fake
Believe it or not, FarmVille isn't the only franchise in town that's become the subject of scam artistry. The wildly popular Twilight series has its very own Facebook scam, Mashable reports. News Feed posts are circulating that promote a Facebook game surrounding Twilight: Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final book in the series whose feature film is set to release Nov. 18. (I know this information because my girlfriend is a fan ... I swear.)
Clicking the link offered on the post will force you to "Like" the post, thus spreading it. While this is bad enough, do not install the app under any circumstances: It's nothing more than a survey asking for personal information. Always avoid suspicious-looking links on Facebook and remember to tell your friends about this one before their love of all things R-Patz causes them to do stupid things like buy a cardboard cut-out of the guy fall victim to a scam.

Stephenie Meyer’s ‘Official Guide’ hits shelves tomorrow
Tomorrow, the long-awaited and much-anticipated The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide by Stephenie Meyer finally hits shelves. Over the past few days, several previews of the book have been unveiled by the publisher (attached), including a biography of the character James, a sneak peek of Bella as a vampire and as a bride, as well as a few illustrations by Young Kim, the same artist responsible for Twilight: The Graphic Novel – Volume 1.
Adding to those previews, Twilight Source uncovered a line-by-line chapter list of what the Guide contains, and it seems a lot of the focus will be upon the many, many characters presented throughout the Saga, but there’ll also be a section for outtakes, lingering questions fans have had from the series, and, of course, illustrations. Check out the list here. The wait is almost over for this latest installment! Link...
