Rob & Kristin finally admit it - Haha!

So Robert Pattinson and Kristin Stewart have finally admitted they are an item – well, he has anyway. The Brit actor declared he was in a relationship with his Twilight co-star to the most important of his publics first . . . The Sun newspaper of course.


Admitting the truth, yet feeling quite sorry for himself and his girlfriend, Robert said: “It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes .”
Honestly, is anyone actually shocked or surprised by this news?? I’m not at all. Who knows why they lied in the first place?? In fact I’m quite happy about it. As much as I’d love Mr Pattinson all to myself, it is never going to happen (and I’m spoken for anyway!). So I think it’s great that him and Kristen are in a relationship, especially as these aren’t just two regular co-stars; they play these two amazing star-crossed lovers – Edward Cullen and Bella Swan are the new generation Romeo & Juliet. And the Twilight saga, both the books and the films, has had enormous effects on millions around the world and has an unbelievably huge fan base. As a hardcore Twilight fan I think this is great news!

However . . . I do think it’s a little dodge that the pair finally comes clean about the relationship, exactly one month before the New Moon DVD release. How convenient. Why now? I would like to think that this particular couple don’t give in to their publicists that easily and are against using their personal lives to sell the movie.


Last November when New Moon was released on the big screen, every newspaper and magazine across the country featured rumours or stories of Rob and Kristin – Are they? Aren’t They? The two actors never commented; they flirted in interviews, they were papped cosying up together, holding hands in public, yet they refused to comment on their relationship. And now four months down the line, they randomly announce they are in fact a couple . . . but I don’t think it is random. I think it is all to do with publicity, and they’ve finally been allowed to lift the lid on the relationship for the benefit of the DVD release. Nice!


In fact, I predict that around June or July rumours/stories will start to spread about a break-up between the two, just in time to promote the third instalment of Twilight – Eclipse (eek!)


But anyways, I hope they do get the chance to be a proper couple and not dragged down by dirty publicists and sell themselves out.

I’ve never really quite understood Queen Latifah – where she came from, what it is she does – Actress? Comedian? Is she even a real Queen? I didn’t even think she was that funny . . . until I found this today. A clip from the Peoples Choice Awards that took place lastnight. As Queen Latifah was presenting the award show, it was obviously her duty to do some sort of comical parody or spoof. And what did she choose to ‘spoof’? New Moon of course! Well actually its more (more…)

So last Friday, the 20th of November, 2009, New Moon was released onto the big screen in the UK. I had originally planned to do the whole super-fan thing, and camp out for two days in Leicester Square in order to attend the UK premiere (or at least jump around and scream like a teenager from behind a barrier), similar to when I ‘attended’ the Sex and the City premiere (minus the camping). Unfortunately, there was to be no UK premiere, only a super fan Twilight party, which I couldn’t get tickets for, and was also unable to head down to Battersea Park to jump around and scream like a teenager from behind a barrier.

Upon its release, I also couldn’t go and see the movie on the Friday the 20th or Saturday the 21st due other plans (although I was very tempted to blow them off – friends birthdays aren’t that important right? Or (more…)

There are tears in my eyes as I type. My hands are shaking. For the one thing I never thought I would get, is sitting in my hands – more Twilight! Not only more Twilight, but an insight into Edward Cullens mind and exactly how it worked. Just when I thought that my love affair with the Twilight literature was over, it can begin again . . .
