Twilight Soundtrack DVD Goes Gold

According to Home Media Magazine:

“Nowadays Steve Nickerson, Summit Entertainment’s president of home entertainment, isn’t surprised by how well anything Twilight does at retail.

So when the Recording Industry Association of America, or RIAA, announced this month that the combined DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of Music Videos and Performances from The Twilight Saga Soundtracks Vol. 1 had reached RIAA-certified gold status Nickerson was more pleased than surprised.

“It’s a little bit of a unique project we developed with Atlantic [Records], and we’re happy with the consumer reaction to it,” he said. “Each of the three individual soundtracks did more than well, and while any of the videos may be available through the individual artists, to put them all together in a product was a unique opportunity.”

You can order the Soundtrack videos via Amazon.

Peter Facinelli Comments on Vampire Viagra

Now if that wasn’t a headline to catch your attention, nothing will, 🙂

Peter Facinelli was on Access Hollywood Live earlier today and here is what he had to say when co-hosts Kit Hoover and Billy Bush pushed him for details on Breaking Dawn.

“Just give us a small nugget for all the Twi-hards…something like, is there vampire sex?”  Kit Hoover asked Peter when she stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Friday.

“Well, yeah, for sure,” Peter joked. “Not for Carlisle, he’s 350!”

“Viagra can’t even help him at that point!” Billy Bush added.

“Vampire Viagra,” Peter said with a laugh.

The actor, who also stars on Showtime’s “Nurse Jackie,” is excited for the plot developments in the upcoming “Breaking Dawn” movies, which will be released in two separate parts.

“We have baby vampires, lots of fun stuff going on in that movie,” he told Billy and Kit. “Eclipse was my favorite book, but I think ‘Breaking Dawn’ is my favorite script. I really like what they did with them. There’s a lot of fun surprises for the audience.

Twilight Goes to the Oscars 2011

Unlike last year when Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart were presenters, there are no Twilight cast members among the presenters. Nikki Finke of Deadline Hollywood has a rough outline of the show from skits to who is singing and presenting. According to Nikki Finke here’s the only connection(and yes, it’s a stretch) as far as we can see:

“Florence (of Florence And The Machine) will perform with A.R. Rahman the 127 Hours song “If I Rise”

Check out Nikki Finke’s full report here.

Now, where there may be a Twilight reference is in the multiple comedy bits that Anne Hathaway and James Franco have planned in the show run. This seems to be confirmed by an OSCAR  producer in this video found by the Twilight Examiner Amanda Bell. and and James had this whole collection of spoof commercials and Internet videos they’ve done leading up to the ceremony (our favorite is below). Given James Franco’s Twilight obsession, that’s probably how it’s going to go down.

Jacob’s House Set Being Prepped for Breaking Dawn Filming

Mandy took a trip to the Jacob’s house location which is located at the intersection of two public roads. We giggled when Mandy described this part because we have been to the area and it’s so true.

“They have added the fire wood, boat buoys, the Black mailbox and other details. There is no ocean nearby this actual location, so it’s funny when they add boats, crab traps (which they did for the previous two movies) and all the boating and fishing props. They seem so obviously out of place, but perfect touches for the movies.”

Check out more photos and details on Mandy’s blog.

The St. Bernard Project: Kellan Lutz Backs His Cause With His Wallet To the Tune of 15K

Kellan Lutz has tweeted about his involvement with The St. Bernard Project several times over the past eighteen months or so. The organization has nothing to do with lovable dogs; it has to do with putting displaced New Orleans families back in homes. Recently he had castmates Rami Malek and Casey LeBow building houses with him.

Kellan just sent out a Tweet that lead to this page on the St. Bernard Project website:

“It’s Mardi Gras season in New Orleans and there are still many families whose homes were flooded by Katrina 5 1/2 years ago and have not been able to rebuild and move home. So I’m doing something about it. I’m the Grand Marshal of the St. Bernard Project’s Get on the Float campaign and am funding a family’s home by donating personally and raising money from the cast and crew of Twilight.

Now I need my fans to join me too. Can I count on you to help?

The St. Bernard Project is amazing and I want everyone to get involved with them. This Mardi Gras Season, Get on the Float for St. Bernard Project by donating today. We want to get at least two families back home and we can do that by raising $40,000.”

See more and learn how to donate here.

So after looking at the entire write up, I scanned down the page to see who donated and I gained a whole new respect for Kellan Lutz. He donated $15,000 to start the project off.
