Twilight

Michelle Trachtenberg revealed that she almost landed the role of Bella, played by Kristen Stewart, in the Twilight movies. Although Michelle royally effed up the role of a lifetime, naturally I'm glad that she didn't score the role. We can't imagine her playing Bella.

Michelle is actually friends with the first movie's director, Catherine Hardwicke, but she turned down the gig because she was busy.

Michelle had some TV gigs, like a recurring role in Gossip Girl and she was working on a little known movie, The Circuit, when she would have had to film Twilight.

"I guess schedules never worked out. I already have Buffy. I’ve already done the vampire thing. [Dwelling on a hypothetical situation means] you’re not living in the moment and you’re looking negatively at what you’re doing now."

Um... considering how much Kristen and her crew pocket per Twilight movie, Michelle clearly made the wrong choice!

It’s a good thing that there’s one more Twilight movie coming out, because now we can be on awkward tension/b!tch fight watch for at least a little longer! Nikki Reed has already blatantly said that she’s grown apart from her Breaking Dawn costars, but part of the reason why they’re no longer “one big happy family” may be because Kristen Stewart has been giving Nikki the stink eye.

Nikki and Kristen in 2008

According to Star magazine, Kristen and Nikki used to be BFFs, until Nikki dabbled in some Robert Pattinson lovin’ and things have been tense ever since.

“Nikki is very vocal about Kristen not being supportive of her success. Nikki is not one to censor herself to avoid confrontation and Kristen doesn’t like that.

And who’s stuck in the middle of all this? R-Patz himself.

“Miraculously, [Rob’s] been able to maintain a friendship with Nikki. But it won’t last, not if Kristen has anything to say about it.”

Here’s the thing: I doubt Nikki gives a sh!t. She has her new husband Paul McDonald to excessively fawn over, and probably doesn’t feel like wasting time wallowing in a pile of awkward. Pretty soon she’ll just peace out.

The stunning wedding gown that Bella Swan wore in Breaking Dawn is now available for purchase! A replica of the beautiful dress Kristen Stewart wore is now being sold! Excuse my exclamation marks! But Bella's dress is ridiculously beautiful!

The Alfred Angelo-designed creation will cost you $799, which is pretty good for a wedding dress. The loose fit in the front would look good on many body types and the lace in the back will naturally make every woman look sexy. The designer of the original gown did a great job. Now you can get your very own! Excuse my exclamation marks!

Because there are some things that people don’t want to see even on Robert Pattinson, the actor’s plumber’s crack has been nixed from Breaking Dawn. While on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, R-Patz explained that his intense sex scene with Kristen Stewart is missing a vital visual aspect of his body: his butt cleavage.

"There was a bit too much butt crack, I think. That was one thing I know they cut out. They didn't cut the shot or whatever, they just cut the crack out...They just painted over it!”

The magical Twilight movie folks have already CGI-ed his abs, so I’m pretty sure erasing his booty line wasn’t that difficult. It’s not too much of a loss. I’d rather just see more of the front side of his body than his sure-to-be-pale @ss. Seriously.

Nikki Reed of Twilight covers breaks the hearts of some Twi-hards by revealing that she and her co-stars are no longer close. In the past, Ashley has said that she and Kristen Stewart are best friends. Today, it sound like the Twilight cast isn't very close.

On what it was like working with the cast at first: In the beginning, it was innocent and fun, and we were like one big happy family – it was like being sleepaway camp.

On what happened: And then success comes along and changes the dynamic. We’re not all best friends, and we’re not all going to hang out together after the final movie is done.”

On people’s misconceptions of her: “I got typecast as a party girl when Thirteen first came out. The funny thing was, I was a virgin, I didn’t do drugs and I barely drank.”

I adore Nikki's realness! When you try to send someone a personal email and you get a response from their publicist, little ambiguity is left. I'm looking at you: Kristen, Robert, Taylor, Kellan and Ashley Greene! Nikki knows what's up.

Taylor Lautner is gearing up for life post-Twilight and all he’s got left to show for it are some six-pack abs and a bunch of screensavers for middle aged women with his face on it (not too shabby). The actor opened up to Parade magazine about the release of Breaking Dawn, his friendship with Kristen Stewart, and how he celebrated his last shirtless scene. He seems so earnest and wholesome, it's almost ridiculous.

On why Jacob will always stay with him: He’s come a long way and he takes a huge step in this film. He really grows up a lot and he has to make some tough choices. I don’t know if I could fill Jacob’s shoes. When he’s in a tough spot, sometimes he doesn’t handle it so well, but I feel for him because I don’t know how I would handle it. But while I’ve loved playing him and appreciate all the attention I’ve gotten, I’m the same person I always have been.

On his friendship with Kristen Stewart: We’ve become closer throughout the years and we are extremely good friends now. Sometimes on set, we’d catch ourselves just being Taylor and Kristen, laughing and being ourselves, and there just happens to be a camera rolling, and then that makes it in the movie and that becomes Jacob and Bella. It was great to just be able to mess around with each other on set and have fun.

On how he suffered to get his hot body: I had people bringing me food and shoving it in my face, saying 'Eat Taylor!' They sort of had to force me. Then I had to get my butt in the gym and that’s difficult because we were filming 12- to 15-hour days. I can definitely say that after my last shirtless scene, as soon as I wrapped, it was a huge celebration. I went out and had desert for the first time in a while, and I took few days off of the gym.

Oh sh!t! Twihards, are you ready? The cast of Twilight talks about what it was like to make Breaking Dawn. Kristen Stewart says that she was excited about the wedding scene "for three years," and Robert Pattinson understands how important it was for fans. These two are so getting married in real life! Taylor Lautner also talks about his transformation, and the entire cast and author Stephenie Meyer seem pretty excited about the upcoming movies. Breaking Dawn Part I hits theaters on Nov. 18!

Twilight - The Beginning of the End

We're just a couple of weeks away from the theater release of Twilight: Breaking Dawn, but lucky for us, little clips and sneak peeks make their way on the Internet before the movie comes out. In this clip, Bella and Edward have already tied the knot and did the honeymoon thing, but she realizes she's late for her period. Looking at her tummy Bella says, "It's impossible... Can this happen?" and shortly after she feels the little monster growing inside. Oh yeah... It's gonna be good!

Breaking Dawn Clip: Bella Is Pregnant!

Breaking Dawn Part I is coming out in less than a month, you guys! Get your Team Jacob shirts out of retirement and fire up your screaming fangirl vocal chords because sh!t’s about to get real. In this installment of the vampire epic, Bella Swan and Edward Cullen finally get down and dirty and pop each other’s cherries. (She also has a baby, but that’s a bloody mess of an entirely different variety.)

I don’t think anyone had any expectations of True Blood-style sex, but according to Kristen Stewart, the entire process was just awkward, weird, and not happy-happy fun times.

She told 15 a 20 magazine, “In the end, I didn’t feel like we had filmed a sex scene, because we were both so uncomfortable and insecure, and because it’s something very subjective. There’s times when there’s weird close ups, and everybody has such high expectations for these scenes.”

Considering these two are uncomfortable and insecure by nature, is anyone really surprised? But I’m sure their sex scene will turn out lovely and sweet, like every purity-ring-holder’s dream. It’s the magic and delusion of Hollywood.

Breaking Dawn Part I hits theaters next month, so from now until opening night (and for a few weeks after that) we are going to be bombarded with new Twilight ads, magazine covers, interviews, Tweets... whatever. Bella and Edward's wedding looks gorgeous, their long awaited honeymoon sex takes place, and werewolf Jacob brings the drama. Twihards and fans, all you have to do is jump in to check it out!
