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.

Kaleb Nation, the Twilight Guy,  just read Chapter 25 of Eclipse. Give him a month or so and he’ll at long last be up to Breaking Dawn!

Kaleb also got some awsome news. He just discovered that Brandon Dorman will be illustrating his debut novel!

Last night on Jimmy Fallon’s show he had on Tina Fey. Tina decided to mention Robert Pattinson a couple of times.  According to Lexiconer Kate:

“..On Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy was interviewing Tina Fey and they talked about her being in attendance at the Oscars. She was explaining that she tried to keep a serious look on her face when she knew she would be in the background of a Mickey Rourke closeup. They showed a still shot of what she was talking about and Rob was also in the shot. Fey said to Fallon “Who is that other guy? Is that the devil?” and Fallon responded “That’s the ‘Twilight’ dude.” She responded by saying “He is one sexy devil.” Later on in the same interview, Fallon was mocking one of Fey’s past looks. He said that she resembled Dracula. She replied with “That’s not me. That’s Robert Pattinson.”
