RobSten- Really? This Again?

The rumors are flying again that America’s favorite “Oh we are not together” couple have finally come out in the open, again. Poor Rob and Kristen can’t be seen anywhere with out rumors of their secret affair. How did the latest rumors start? The incredibly unreliable Great Britain tabloid The Sun got the craze going again by writing an article about the BAFTA awards, where both the stars were in attendance. What a strange coincidence, that is if you forget the fact that Kristen actually was nominated for and won the Rising Star award and Rob was there as a presenter. Instead The Sun took a different approach on the matter, quoting Rob as saying:

“It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes.”

“We can’t arrive at the same time because of the fans. It goes crazy. This was supposed to be a public appearance as a couple but it’s impossible. We are here together and it’s a public event but it’s not easy.

“We have to do all this stuff to avoid attention.”

Kristen’s Take on Eclipse Proposal

I will just start out by saying, anyone who has not read Eclipse yet should stop reading this post and head to their nearest bookstore because this post has some serious spoilers!!

Eclipse is the 3rd book and movie in the Twilight Saga. Due out in June, we are already hearing details about this action packed movie! Recently, MTV had a chance to talk to Kristen about Bella’s proposal to Edward in the end of Eclipse. Kristen hit the nail right on the head, stating that the proposal needed to be more then just 2 kids deciding to get married, “I wanted to be, like, ‘Oh! Wow! I would say yes too!’ You know what I mean? So I don’t know how you do that. You try to do it for real, and it felt good. I hope it turned out alright.” When you are reading the book and Bella proposes to Edward, this is exactly how you feel, you feel like Bella and Edward were ready to get married, both of them are old souls and marriage was definitely the next step. Here is a video of Kristen talking about the proposal:

As great as it is, Bella’s proposal was not the only new news we have for Eclipse. All the stars are out talking about this movie and they all have plenty to say! Yahoo! got all the New Moon stars together to hear about how they felt about Eclipse and what there favorite part was. It was interesting to hear all their opinions about the movie as well as the different takes on it. Taylor shared his favorite scene: the tent scene, which he said was a blast to film. The wolfpack gave their comments about new pack member Leah Clearwater, played by Julia Jones. Apparently the wolfpack lived up to their mischievous nature and gave Julia a hard time on set. Check out the video here:

But lets not forget how intense Eclipse is either. There’s the love triangle between Jacob, Edward and Bella; then throw some newborn vamps into the mix and you have your self an action packed movie. David Slade, director for the movie, was tweeting up a storm along the way. Here is some of his tweets

“As we cut. Edward seems to be a really strong presence, the intensity of the love story & rivalry between Jacob is in the driving seat.”

“Working Sunday, battle sequences coming together, first half of film feeling very emotional, still early days.”

But even with out these informative tweets we would know how intense the movie is. In Twilight, twi-hards learned all about Edward and fall in love with him. In New Moon, Edward leaves and we get to learn about Jacob, the best friend who was always waiting in the shadows. Now with Eclipse we have both of these two guys, who hate each other by the way, both competing for Bella’s hearts, while working together to protect her.
Love triangle aside, we also have the newborn vampire army. Victoria, the nomad vampire is steal seeking revenge and she has recruited some help. Rachelle Lefevre was replaced in this movie by Bryce Dallas Howard and we are all excited to see what she can do. In an article with MTV, Bryce described the character of Victoria and her role in Eclipse, “Victoria is a wonderful character. … It’s awfully juicy to play a villain. To play someone that’s just evil; Victoria is evil. And I think with “Eclipse,” it ends with quite a huge battle, a big spectacle, and it’s very scary. It’s a very, very scary book and very terrifying set of circumstances, and I think the Cullens are in jeopardy in a way that they never really have been before. It was a really, really exciting world to be a part of, because it was so scary and the stakes were so high.”

BAFTA Awards Tonight

Tonight on BBC we have a double whammy of Twilight stars at the awards show presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts. The lovely Rob Pattinson is scheduled to be a presenter and Kristen Stewart is nominated for the Orange Rising Star Award. There was rumors swirling and speculation about whether R-Pattz may be presenting the awards to Kristen. Well, not to spoil the ending for anyone, but my good friends at TwiFans.com posted this video of Kristen receiving the award and of her wonderfully clumsy acceptance speech. Check it out:

This award was voted on by the public, and with as big as the Twilight World is, it is not that suprising that Kristen won.

It is truly award show season and this is not the end of the road for Twilight stars. Kristen has already confirmed that she and Taylor would be presenting an award at the ceremony. Unfortunately Twilight is not nominated for anything, but Kristen and Taylor will still be there to represent.

Stay Tuned for more awards show news and all the latest gossip!

Kristen and Dakota Help Haiti

With the problems down in Haiti, everyone is banding together to do their part and extend help where ever they can. The stars have all got into action in various ways including the Hope for Haiti telethon and other charity events. Even down at the Sundance film Festival, charity events were going on. One of these money raising events is a snowboard that all the stars signed that is now up for sale online. The proceeds for this board go to the American Red Cross Haitian Relief Fund and it has been signed by SO many big stars, including Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart!

Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart were down at Sundance promoting their new movie The Runaways about the 70’s girl band featuring Joan Jett. Kristen had already participated in a auction that she and her team helped organize, they auctioned off a weekend at Sundance in the company of Kristen herself!

This snowboard is still up for grabs until February 23rd and so far it has only reached $550, which is a great deal for a board that is valued at $10,000. Would like a chance to take home this snowboard with signatures from not only Kristen and Dakota, but also Cheri Cherie, Khloe Kardashian, Mario Lopez, Stephanie Pratt, and so much more! If so, just go to CharityBuzz.com and place a minimum bid of $650, then keep your eyes on the auction and keep bidding! And just remember, the proceeds do go to help rebuild Haiti.

Are Kristen and Rob Dating?

If you are like me, every where you go there are magazines that have combating opinions on whether or not Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are actually dating. At first I passed these off as rumors, maybe even marketing for their new movie, just like with Twilight. But now the rumor that they are dating is getting more plentiful and it seems to be the truth everyone believes, so I decided it was time for a more in-depth investigation. Obviously I can’t just go and ask Rob and Kristen, as much as I would love that, so instead I decided to examine all the articles and see which ones seem to be the most reliable, this is what I found.

First of course there was the caught kissing photos. You remember those right?

Basically the rumor was that Rob and Kristen were caught kissing at the Kings of Leon concert. Although the pictures looked promising, further investigation showed that there was probably no kissing going on.

Then there was confirmation by unnamed sources, such as this article in HollyScoop.com which says:

A source close to the couple confirms to Hollyscoop, “Rob and Kristen are definitely together!”
The source added, “Rob has been crazy about Kristen since they first started filming Twilight. Even though Kristen had a boyfriend at the time, Rob made sure she knew he was crazy about her.” …They would enjoy romantic dinners together after shooting would wrap up and reportedly wouldn’t stop kissing even after the director called “cut.”
“Kristen and Rob have been dating for a while, but they have been very hush, hush,” says our source.

This is a great story and maybe it is even possible, but I have a hard time taking the word of a unnamed source. I prefer sources that dare state their opinions and their names. Such as this article from OK magazine where the source is a waitress at a Vancouver Restaurant that is popular with the cast. Here is what she had to say:

A.T.: How about Rob and Kristen, what is their dynamic like?
Hostess One: Doesn’t everyone just know that they’re dating?

A.T.: Uh, you’d be surprised how many don’t want to believe it.
Hostess Two: Oh, well everyone here knows. They are the only cast members who will come in alone a lot. You can just tell by looking at them. They’re really cute together, always smiling.

A.T.: Love it! Hate to say it though, but “smiling” and “Kristen Stewart” seem unlikely to be in the same sentence together.
Hostess One: No way. She is incredibly sweet — I’d be a bitch, too, if there were cameras constantly in my face. But she’s great, and so is Rob. They just seem to make each other happy.

Believe it or not this is a source that I do believe. I mean it is possible she was just trying to stir up gossip or wanted her 15 minutes, but I didn’t get that feeling from her. In fact so far the Canadians have proven to not only be a good source, but basically nonchalant about Twilight.

If we really want answers it is best to go straight to the source, so I wondered what Kristen and Rob were saying? But unfortunately even that was a little cloudy. For example Socialte Life quotes and article from ET! that states what Rob has to say about the dating rumors, and apparently he finds them “Ridiculous”, Check it out:

“It becomes a joke,” the dreamy-eyed Brit tells Entertainment Tonight. “There was some magazine the other day about me and Kristen and when you look at it and realize it’s on the front of a magazine… You realize that people are actually reading that even though how ridiculous it is. It’s really bizarre.”

Hmm, it doesn’t exactly sound like love to me yet, but could this be a cover up? We may never know, although apparently there is supposed to be an article coming out in December In-Touch Weekly where Kristen and Rob finally come out in the open, but I am not holding my breath.

So what did my investigation turn up? There is nothing new with Rob and Kristen and there is still no Robsten, but I think that there is definitely something there. The only thing I know for sure is that rumors of marriage are absolutely false. In fact the “wedding” that magazines continue to talk about is actually the wedding from Breaking Dawn. The evidence is right in the description

What do you think? Are the rumors true? Share your reasons why!!

Great Taylor and Kristen Video

New Moon is on its way and already the cast is busy, busy with Eclipse. But lucky for us they are still taking time off there busy schedules to do interviews. This video is an awesome and funny video of Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart hanging out and doing a photo shoot for Entertainment Weekly

What did you think?

Filming in Italy

As we all wait anxiously for the release of New Moon it is nice to have little teasing tidbits of the movie to help us get through the agony of the wait. Well here is a video that has been floating around YouTube of the Twilight stars filming the famous Porsche scenes in Volterra. The video is not amazing quality but it does show a good portion of the scene where Alice gets stopped by the cop while driving the Porsche and Bella jumps out. The video features Ashley Greene, Kristen Stewart, as well as their stunt doubles. Check it out and let me know what you think!!

Interview With Michael Welch

Mike Newton is the adorable high-schooler who crushes on Bella in all 4 of the Twilight Books, the one we just can’t help but love.  In the Twilight movies, Mike Newton is played by Michael Welch, another guy we can’t help but love. Blast Magazine got an interview with him and it was not only interesting but fun to read too.

Michael Welch is one of those kinds of guy stars that is not afraid to tell you who he really is and let his true colors show. In the interview, when asked about his charity work, this is what he had to say:

I won some sort of environmental award for some reason a couple years back… I guess since I drive a Prius or something. I mean a made a couple of environmental videos.

LOL so funny, but don’t worry everyone he then later goes on to say:

The main charity I’ve been with is Kids with a Cause, and we’re a multi-cause charity, but the ultimate goal is to help kids in need. We started out as a local charity, visiting like, orphanages, burn centers, etc. Now we’re trying to go international and help kids that need some of the basic fundamental things in life so they can pursue their own happiness. It’s been very rewarding

Aww, now there is the quirky charm we can’t help but love.
Mike Newtons biggest scene in new Moon is the scene where Bella, Jacob, and him all go to the movies together. *SPOILER ALERT* Him getting sick introduces the beginning of Jacob’s transformation *It is no safe to keep reading* Apparently this scene was almost cut from the movie but Taylor and Kristen lobbied to keep it in, which is great because it is a HUGE scene. Check it out:

You know it’s a tricky thing when you try and turn a book into a movie because a movie is only two hours and there’s only so much you can fit in, but yeah, what they originally did was they took that moment between Jacob and Bella and put it in a different scene of the movie. Luckily Taylor and Kristen lobbied that scene for me to Chris Weitz saying it absolutely had to be in, and it’s a good scene. They weren’t really lobbying for me, it’s just, how can you not have that scene in there? Yeah, so I was really happy to hear that, and it was great for me because I got to do Mike’s best scene in the book.

Michael Welch is great and this a great Interview. It gets funnier and we learn a secret about Justin Chon (3 nipples) check the rest out at BlastMagazine.com, then come and tell me what you think? Are you gonna lobby for a Team Mike?

Teen Choice Awards

The Teen Choice Awards are coming and just like all the other award shows this year, Twilight is up for some major nominations.

Between the cast and the movie, Twilight has been nominated for 12 different nominations in topics including Best movie, best fight scene, and best kiss. Rob is up for lead male and Kristen lead female. Taylor is not up against Rob this time for Break-out male so he should have no problem winning that. However Nikki Reed and Ashley Greene are pitted against each other for Break-out female.

The Teen Choice awards are August 10th from 8-10pm on Fox. Hosting the Teen Choice Awards this year is another guy girls love to chase, or should I say guys as all 3 of the Jonas Brothers are hosting it this year. There is no word yet on who will be presenting the surfboards this year, but I can bet we will see some familiar Twilight faces.
