It’s no secret that Twilight is incredibly popular in Spain. The first country outside the USA to establish a major Twilight fan website was the Spanish site Crepusculo.

Crepusculo is currently reporting that Cam and Kristen will each be doing Q&A web events as well as media appearances.

Aside from the variety of media publications that will be conducting interviews, Crepusculo has obtained two exclusive interviews: one with Catherine and one with Cam and Kristen that they will be launching later this week. They also have promise to air an audio greeting from each of them.

Congrats to site owner Javier and his entire staff.

Rob is supposed to be calling into New York City’s Z-100 radio November 4th during their regular morning show known as Elvis Duran and the Z-Morning Zoo.  You can listen in as they stream live 6:00am-10:00 eastern time.  Ty to Ali for the heads up.

Ever wonder how actors got their start. At what point were they bitten by the urge to perform? I think we have now been given that answer over on Mike Welch’s media site. Check out the latest videos, however put down all liquids while you watch, unless you want to risk shorting out your monitor.

The Movie Fanatic wraps up its Comprehensive Guide to Twilight 3-part series with a look at fanfiction  (Alphie’s The Lion and The Lamb is among those featured.) They also give a shout out to the international sites.

‘I’m practically naked throughout the entire movie,’ actor laughs about ‘Twilight." Now with a headline like that, how can you resist reading Larry Carrol’s latest twilight article?

Various versions of the Twilight movie trailer are popping up everywhere as Summit kicks into a major media blitz.  Expect more in the near future since a major press junket is upcoming. Just some of the spottings include:

• Nickelodeon
• The World Series
•  Cartoon Network Adult Swim

You can also catch Twilight coverage in the hard copies of:

• Fast Company Magazine (ty to Already Bitten)
  
• Nylon Magazine (ty to Takara)

On a live broadcast in Dallas at the where Twicon is to be held this summer, Bailey (No More Marbles) and Kaleb (The Twilight Guy) announced that Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene would be making appearances at Twicon this summer.  This is in addition to other previous guests such as Mike Welch, and The Bella Cullen Project.

They also mentioned that they are still working on getting other guests, but didn’t mention who else they might be trying to sign on.

You can get all the details here.

Supposedly Twicon has something big in the works.  They are doing another live videocast tonight to deliver the big news live, and Kaleb Nation (Mr. Twilight Guy) is going to be broadcasting with them.:
