Quileute Days Has Special Guest

June 17, 2009

According to their press release, the Quileute Nation will have actor Solomon Trimble on hand for the annual Quileute Days celebration.

TWILIGHT actor, Solomon Trimble, who portrayed Sam Uley in Stephenie Meyer’s mega- hit, will be the special guest of The Quileute Nation of La Push, WA during their annual Quileute Days celebration July 17-19 2009.

Solomon Trimble (Mescalero Apache, Lakota) has been a traditional Native American Grass Dancer since the age of 3.  Twilight was his cinematic debut.

He served as a cultural consultant for a few films by Oregon Public Broadcasting in association with PBS.

Stephenie Meyer’s comments about Solomon:

“It was pretty amazing. I looked up and did a double take. “Aren’t you…Sam?” I asked. Solomon laughed and agreed that he was. He had a couple of technical werewolf questions for me (ex. “Can werewolves phase underwater?” Answer: Yes) and I tried to control my enthusing. Solomon was super friendly and interesting, and though he looks awesome on film, he’s even more incredible in person. His features are just so stunning!”

Twilight fans are encouraged to attend and enjoy a photo op with Solomon Trimble on First Beach!

The Quileute Tribe extends a cordial welcome to all to join them for their celebration of cultural heritage and modern lifestyle.  Guests will enjoy a traditional Salmon bake, Quileute arts and crafts, dancing and songs, adult and youth softball tournaments, parade and a fireworks display.

All inquiries regarding this release and/or the Quileute Nation may be directed to Jackie Jacobs at [email protected] or 206-388-9200. www.quileutenation.org

Jackson Rathbone in Shock Till You Drop

June 17, 2009

Jackson Rathbone talked to Shock Till You Drop about what to expect in New Moon and his upcoming plans with his band, 100 Monkeys.

“He then talked about the major differences with the production on the sequel. “We have a bigger budget, we have a little more pressure to keep that feeling going, but the nice thing is that you’re delving more into the story now with ‘New Moon,'” he said. “As the films progress, you get deeper into the lore and they mythical world you’re establishing with the werewolves and get more into what the werewolf society and legacy is. It keeps getting deeper.”

Comic Con Tally

June 17, 2009

We are getting a lot of questions regarding which Twilight Saga actors are going to be at Comic Con. The answer is honestly we don’t know.  It’s also the type of thing that can change if someone’s filming schedule revises, not to mention if they get stuck in traffic on the I-5 like Dakota Fanning did last year.

Here’s what we know so far based on actors stating they will be there either in interviews or on Twitter:

Rachelle Lefevre
Billy Burke

Also since we realize that a lot of people who are going are Comic Con newbies, here are some really handy tips. This set gives you some tips from a seasoned pro.

Porn stash needs to retire. Motivation text based: Charlie is trying to impress Sue & Sue doesn’t like the stash”

100 Monkeys Debut New Songs

June 17, 2009

MTV’s new Hollywood Crush blog talked to Jackson Rathbone about New Moon and to see if 100 Monkey might be soundtrack material.

““We’d love it,” Rathbone told MTV News. “[But] we’re not really pushing for it,” he said. “It’s one of those things where if they want to put our song on the album, I’m not going to complain.” The 24-year-old describes his band’s sound as “old school rock and roll,” that is heavily influenced by blues and funk. “It’s not whiney music,” he added.”

Check out the band yourself performing Ugly Girl and Smoke at Croc Rock on June 14, 2009

Rachelle Lefevre joins Twitter

June 16, 2009

Yes yes we realize it’s spelled wrong, but http://twitter.com/Rachelle_Lefevr is actually the real Rachelle Lefevre.

Here’s the story. We get this Tweet out of the blue from http://twitter.com/Rachelle_Lefevr telling us she’s the real Rachelle. Now you have to understand, the first thing I notice is that it’s spelled wrong. I thought Oh brother, this one can’t even spell, and it has some nerve thinking we are going to fall for that.

I would have just ordinarily ignored it, but I thought, this was pretty..well frankly… ballsy for an impostor, so, we checked with Rachelle’s management and according to her management, “…this IS indeed her authentic account…there are…other parties out there who have taken her name and opened accounts and said they are her! …One of them is using  her correct spelling of her last name Lefevre, so that is why you see her account with her last name without the “e” at the end, her correct spelling had already  been taken…”

To Rachelle we slice ourselves a helping of humble pie with a side order of crow for doubting that you were you.

Don’t forget that you can see Rachelle in person at the Twilight Fan Trips Vampire Baseball game in Portland. Tickets are still available. Get the details here.

Aussie fans will be happy to know that Rachelle is going to be at SUPANOVA in Syndey in June

Now given that Rachelle’s management has confirmed that the below Rachelle’s are fakes, it stands to reason that the  other Twilight accounts that they link to are fake as well. Especially since the fake Rachelle’s were having back and forth conversations about set experiences, dinners, shopping trips, etc.  with the other supposed “real cast members”
