EW Article

According to the Twilight Saga website, Entertainment Weekly has scored Stephenie’s first breaking Dawn interview in their upcoming issue.  We’ve been given permission to repost a scan of the cover here.  Look for this Twilight EW on magazine stands July 18th. Edit: I have conflicting info on the date this hits newstands. It may be this Friday that you can get it. No matter what it’s definitely coming, just some data I have says this Friday and some next Friday. Now further clarified on all sides to be this Friday hitting newsstands. LOL, even the pros make mistakes sometimes.

Stephenie’s Plea

In addition to yesterday’s post about the State of the Fandom, Stephenie has posted a message on her site asking the fans to help stave off the influx of spoilers that are sure to pop up across the Internet in the coming weeks…

 Reposted with permission of Stephenie Meyer

 If somebody does post a spoiler (and remember there will be a lot of hoaxes out there—do not believe everything you read: Bella gets eaten by a polar bear, anyone?), I’d love your help in getting them taken down. My publisher has set up a special e-mail account, [email protected], for fans to alert us to spoilers that appear online. PLEASE only send links to spoilers. E-mails about events, contacting me, etc. will not be returned.

Twilight Tuesday

In today’s installment of Twilight Tuesdays, Larry meets up with the girls from "The Bella Cullen Project." For those of you who don’t know, Ally, Chandler and Tori are three high school girls from Arlington, TX who formed a Twilight-inspired rock band a year ago. Larry had a chance to interview the girls on their options of Twilight, the music that inspired Stephenie, and the possible newly emerging genre of "Vamp Rock".

 

Edit:  

The Twilight Lexicon has been long supporters of the Bella Cullen Project and we are thrilled that they had this amazing platform to promote their music. 

MTV is – Music Television- what better way to celebrate the Twilight film then to interview a music group inspired by the book.

As stated many times, its a long time between now and December.  The title of the MTV tuesday spot is "Twilight Tuesday", Not "Twilight Movie Tuesday".  Expect a wide range of news stories as MTV celebrates every aspect of the Twilight fandom. 

I would expect the next big movie news story to come out of Twilight Tuesday to be following Comic Con.  Though there is another actor spotlight in the works (just like the Michael Welch Twilight Tuesday spotlight).
