Sexiest Vegetarian: Christian Serratos vs Liz Reaser

Peta has nominated Hollywood’s glamorous vegatarians in their Who’s the World’s Sexiest Vegetarian poll. Both Christian Serratos and Liz Reaser have been nominated. Other nominees include long-time vegetarian and PETA spokes people like Alicia Silverstone.

According to PETA:

“Each year, the crop of meat-free hotties gets larger and larger, and this year is no exception. Whether they’re ditching their meat habit because they don’t want to have any part in cruelty to animals or they’ve realized that a vegetarian diet is the best way to keep their flat tummies, the number of celebs shunning flesh is steadily rising.”

Kellan Lutz: Local Boy Makes Good

Kellan Lutz is due to pay a visit to the small North Dakota town where he grew up.  According to the Dickinson Press:

“Kellan Lutz, who plays Emmett Cullen in the movie, will make an appearance on Saturday, Aug. 22 during Tractor Fest. There the actor/model will greet fans, take photos and sign autographs.

Lutz was born in Dickinson, then lived in a few different places, and moved to California when he was a teen to be closer to his family and acting opportunities.

Lutz is scheduled to appear in Mott pending any unforeseen scheduling conflicts, said Tractor Fest Committee member Deb Marthaller.

Two Words: Yellow Porsche

This in from Twilighters Italia 2.0

“Today our forum mods were in Montepulciano and look what they’ve found:

Alice’s Yellow Posche!

At the beginning our loved racing car was covered by a grey robe, but our
indefatigable facilitator/ moderator, suspicious of the dimensions and by
the chromed wheels, have began questioning people around.

Mauro Pellegrini the owner of the tow truck, had orders by the production
not to uncover the car, but after explaining him who they were to his boss,
our heroines have even been invited to remain till the end of the
shooting!!

The big man youcan see in some pictures is one of the stuntmen. He had an
Alice wig, a bandana, a couple of elbow high red gloves, and seemingly from
far he actually looked like our loved little vampire/pixie

Mauro secretly told us that there are two yellow porsche in Montepulciano,
placed in different places of the town. As they were not exactly identical,
one had yellow brake pad cover and another had them red, Production was
willing to spend to the incredible amount of €5800 PER PIECE to have them
all red!!!

Luckily they found out a way to paint them, but this episode says a lot on
how high is this movie’s budget!!!

The helicopter we told you about ealier, has kept low-flying whole day long
filming aerial of the main square.. The fountain is not finished yet, so
probably this was a rehearsal or shooting for the DVD’s extra-contents .

It also flown over where the porsche was, so probably we’ll see some
Twilighters on the big screen : our Marghe’s car has been filmed by Alice’s
car!!

We are honoured!!”

There’s also some great footage taken of the square looking down from the clocktower.

Brad Pitt vs. Robert Pattinson

Extra TV wants to know who is sexier down at Cannes: Brad or Rob? I mean let’s face it, on name pronunciation alone Robert ( Rob-bare)  vs. Brad (well…Brad…and it sounds like they are coughing up bad food when they say it) Rob should easily win. Plus, is it just us, or does Brad look like he took a suit from the Fantasy Island collection and then grabbed a random scarf and shoes for the heck of it.
