Dakota made the cut wearing the outfit she wore on David Letterman’s show when she was promoting her new film, Push.

Kristen Stewart Clears the Air!

Frosty, AKA Steve over on Collider, (You remeber Steve, the guy with the BEST footage from the Twilight press junket last fall) just gave us teh heads up on an interview that Kristen Stewart did for her upcoming project The Cake Eaters. Kristen address the recent Nylon magazine article and surrounding controversy.

According to the Collider article:

I love the Twilight fans. I have literally never said anything remotely negative about them,” she told us…You have to stay away from certain key words that can be twisted in a negative connotation. Like the word ‘psychotic’ apparently is really bad,” she said, provoking laughter around the table.

Brenna Lee Roth In New Moon Cast

It’s all very hush, hush, but daughter of former Van Halen lead singer David Lee Roth has nabbed a part in New Moon. The question of the hour is which one? The article confirms what we have been suspecting that signed on stars have signed a NDA (non disclosure agreement) Let the speculation begin.  Anyone else thinking Gianna?

FYI: The link takes you to an article that has a picture that is a bit revealing.

Edited: Looking a lot more like we got punked on this one.  Especially nice touch when the original sending source had a really legit looking photo of the script. Nice touch. Sometimes you just get had, this is one of those times. Better to admit to it, pobody’s nerfect 🙁

Twilight Singapore Says Thank You

The girls from Twilight Singapore who provided the best coverage of any media source (professional or amateur) of the Twilight release in Tokyo are saying thank you to the fans who watched their videos.

Again we’d like to say a huge thank you to them for sharing the amazing experience with all of us!

Edward Goes To La Push…Sort Of

The Miller Tree Inn, a fabulous Bed and Breakfast located in Forks, has their own blog with adventures with Edward.

If you have ever been to Forks, the house is located immediately adjacent to the police department. It’s a beautiful, sprawling white Victorian with majestic trees surrounding it.  The owners also have a great sense of humor. They have a wipe board located on their door where Esme and Carlisle frequently write messages to folks wandering by to take pictures.

Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart Teaming Up?

According to Variety and ET Dakota Fanning is set for New Moon. Not only that, they are stating that she and Kristen may be seeing a lot more of each other that just a fleeting scene in Italy. They may be together on the set of Runaways Kristen’s upcoming Joan Jett project.

For those of you not quite old enough to have had Crimson and Clover as your prom theme, or to appreciate the fact that the amp goes to 11, Wikipedia gives you a pretty good rundown on the history of Joan Jett and Cherie Currie.
