The Twilight Guy on the Rumor Mill

It looks like Kaleb Nation, the Twilight Guy, is having about as many emails as we have over the nonsense that Kristen Stewart is supposedly having Robert Pattinson’s love child. We blogged about it here.  Kaleb has taken a humorous approach to the larger issue at hand.

Rachelle Lefevre In London Free Press

Rachelle Lefevre talked to the London Free Press about the transition in Victoria’s character from Twilight to New Moon and finally to Eclipse.

“”In the first movie, because I didn’t have as much screen time, I wanted to be very clear. I wanted to convey energy and be very present, but also very playful. And that’s because (Victoria) enjoyed stalking Bella with James.

“But when James is killed, it becomes about exacting revenge, which comes from a totally different place. It’s not just a game any more.”

Get all the details in the London Free Press.

Christopher Heyerdahl in Sci-Fi Wire

Christopher Heyerdahl, who plays Marcus in New Moon, talked to Sci-Fi wire about the very silent Marcus and upcoming projects.

Well, it’s a little independent film I’m helping out with,” the good-natured Heyerdahl said with a chuckle and tongue firmly in cheek. “This guy, poor old Marcus, is a 3,000-odd-years-old vampire who has spent at least the last 2,000 of it with a broken heart. Really, one of the main reasons to play that character and have anything to do with that series is my niece, who is absolutely obsessed with this series of books. To see how it has had such an effect on the teenage female community throughout the world is amazing.”

New Moon Dress One of a Kind?

EW has an article up on how Bella’s dress that appeared in the magazine’s photo spread of the birthday scene is a one-of-a-kind item.  Costume designer Tish Monaghan tells EW, “‘It was supposed to be a gift from Alice, so I wanted something pretty that Alice would buy, but also something vintage [looking] that would be appropriate for Bella. We dressed it down with sneakers to keep the Bella flavor.”

Now this is true, however, this weekend at Creation Entertainment’s Twi-Tour Atlanta, we met that enterprising John Henson who has collected both original costumes from the Twilight Saga movie as well as created reproductions. John got in touch with Tish awhile back and created this fabulous reproduction using the same fabric that Tish did.  It looked stunning on the display mannequin and later on his cousin at the vampire ball. The green of John’s replica dress is much richer in color, not our photos were taken via Pel’s IPhone camera in less than ideal lighting conditions.

We will have an interview with John at a future date. We were completely compelled by John’s stories of how he hunts down fabrics, original costumes, etc.

Kellan Lutz:Twilighters Italia Interview

Twilighters Italia got Kellan Lutz to comment on the paparazzi and overly zealous fans.

Billy Burke Comments to Ted Casablanca

Ted Casablanca of E! caught up with Billy Burke at a charity poker tournament at the Playboy mansion and asked him a few questions about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Billy placed 20th overall in the tournament (according to Billy’s Twitter).  Billy blamed not doing better on the “distractions”.

Here’s some of what Billy said to E! Ted Casablanca hasn’t spun another Robsten story out of it.

When asked about the pregnancy rumors, “Rob is probably pregnant with my child. It’s funny no one picked up on me and Rob’s affair.”

How do you think Rob’s handling all this attention? He seems stressed out on the set of his new movie, Remember Me… Think R.Pattz would ever get totally fed up with it and quit acting altogether?

“You mean pulling a Joaquin Phoenix? I doubt he would go that route. He’s got a lot of talent. He’s got his art, as opposed to being bogged down by all this bulls–t. I think he’s handling it well. I feel a little bit for [Rob and Kristen]. I think [the attention] was unexpected by both of them.”
