Paul McDonald: "Nikki Reed is the One"


From DigitalSpy.com:

American Idol contestant Paul McDonald has opened up about his shock engagement to Twilight actress Nikki Reed, saying that he knew straight away that she was "the one".

The couple confirmed their relationship in April this year after meeting at the premiere of Red Riding Hood, and announced their engagement only months later at the MTV Movie Awards.

"Well yeah, I'm not allowed to say too, too much about that stuff, but it's going good," McDonald coyly told MTV News, when asked about the couple's wedding plans. "I love her to death."

The singer admitted that he would never have predicted the two would get engaged so soon after meeting, but said that it had simply been love at first sight.

"It's kind of one of those things you don't expect," he explained. "Like last year I never would have thought I'd be getting married."

"She's the perfect girl," he added. "We fit each other, when you know, you know, and she's the one."

McDonald is currently starring alongside the likes of Casey Abrams, Lauren Alaina and winner Scotty McCreery on the American Idol US tour.

Kristen's Celebrity Makeup Artist, Fiona Stiles, Telsl YOU How to Get Her Look!


Getting Kristen’s look never involves too many products, so gather up these COVERGIRL goodies and you’re ready to start!

Here’s what Fiona did:

Using a synthetic brush I swiped on the COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Silk Foundation where needed and then blended it out with a damp sponge so the coverage was sheer and luminous. A light dusting of translucent powder set the foundation. I swept a bit of the COVERGIRL Cheekers Blush in Natural Rose onto the apples of the cheeks for a soft and subtle flush.

For the eyes, I smudged on the deep rusty bronze color of the COVERGIRL Smoky ShadowBlast in Purple Plume from the lash line to above the crease blending it toward the brow bone. Then I used a bit of the plumy color in the COVERGIRL Exact Eyelights quad for Green Eyes over the ShadowBlast to add depth to the color and to add a bit more definition at the outer corners of the eyes, and a soft sweeping of color under the lower lashes.

I lined the waterline with COVERGIRL LiquilineBlast in Black Fire and smudged a bit into the top lash line as well as blended a little at the outer corners of the eyes. Two coats of COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Mousse Mascara in Black top and bottom gave the final touch of glam.

For the lips, I lined the lips all over first with COVERGIRL LipPerfection Lip Liner in Smoky, and then applied a light coat of COVERGIRL LipPerfection lipcolor in Heavenly for a touch of shine.

Rob is Humble & Really Funny Reveals 'Breaking Dawn' Co-Star


From Hollywoodlife.com:

We just love hearing what a wonderful guy Rob is. Do you think he’s Hollywood’s most down-to-earth celebrity?

Robert Pattinson is a lucky guy because no one has a single bad thing to say about him! Rob’s Breaking Dawn co-star Guri Weinberg took to his Twitter on June 19 when asked by fans what Rob is really like — and he had nothing but a glowing review of the 25-year-old actor.

“@AnkariaRC_ Rob is very humble, very down to earth, very welcoming and if you get him going, VERY funny. :)”

Rob is either doing something right or is just the coolest and most laid back guy in Hollywood. No wonder his girlfriend Kristen Stewart has been with him this long.

We’ve always known that Rob is a standup guy by watching him in his interviews and interviewing him in person. But it’s so nice to have constant reaffirmations that Rob is the real deal!

Do you believe Rob is Hollywood’s most humble male celebrity?

Robert Did Not Use Body Double in Breaking Dawn


From MTV.co.uk:

After reports claiming Rob was swapped in the sex scene...

A representative for the Twilight Saga has quashed reports that Robert Pattinson, used a body double during the sex scenes for upcoming flick, Breaking Dawn.

US gossip website Hollywood Life reported that R-Pattz could have been swapped for a more hunky actor after stating that it was "a shock to see" Rob's "very muscular, and very ripped back" in the trailer for the fourth vampire movie.

They also claimed that despite being known as a heartthrob, Rob "is not so much known for being the most muscular of guys" hinting that a body double could have been used for the raunchy sex scene with Kristen Stewart.

The site also joked that Taylor Lautner, who is known for being more muscly than Rob, could have "stepped in" for Pattinson.

However, a spokesperson for Summit Entertainment, who makes the Twilight Saga, has rubbished Hollywood Life's claims, telling Gossip Cop: "A body double was NOT used.”

Breaking Dawn Trailer: Four Lingering Questions


From MTV.com:

On Sunday morning, a few hours before the 2011 MTV Movie Awards went live and while the red carpet at the Gibson Amphitheatre was still a hive of pre-show activity, we welcomed three "Twilight" experts into the fray with a simple assignment: Take an early look at the "Breaking Dawn" teaser trailer, which we would be debuting during the Movie Awards, and let us know what you think.

They more than came through. Kara Hassell of TwilightersAnonymous.com, Laura Byrne-Cristiano of TwilightLexicon.com and Kallie Matthews from TwilightSeriesTheories.com analyzed the trailer like only die-hard "Twilight" specialists can. But there was too much info to pack into one story. And now that a few days have passed since the trailer's debut and the bloggers' opinions are still fresh in our minds, we have a few lingering questions we want answered in the future.

Two Wedding Rings?

Early in the trailer, we see Kristen Stewart's Bella Swan wearing a large diamond-incrusted ring — a family heirloom, as explained in the book. But as Matthews pointed out, when Bella notices she is pregnant in the trailer, she is wearing a simple silver band. What gives? Will the two-ring situation be explained? Matthews thinks she knows the answer already. "I'm thinking it's one of those things where the one ring really is an heirloom," she told us. "You put it away and wear it on special occasions."

Too Hot for PG-13?

Last summer, Summit Entertainment distribution chief Richie Fay assured us that, despite the book's sex scenes and horror-like elements, the adaptation would not be rated R. That hasn't stopped online talk, as Byrne-Cristiano put it, that "we've got to make this R." Well, now that we've seen the first trailer, it seems regardless of the PG-13 rating, the flick is going to be pretty steamy. Just how hot? Though we've gotten a peek — Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen cracking a headboard mid-coitus and the duo taking a honeymoon skinny dip — the real question about the heat factor will have to wait until we glimpse a different scene: the famous one with the feathers. "There are no feathers on the bed," she noted. "That's a well-known point that everyone wants. So in that trailer, there are three moments, and there's got to be another one."

What Else Has Changed?

The eagle-eyed Hassell noted two small but significant changes from "New Moon" to "Breaking Dawn." For one, Jamie Campbell Bower, who plays the blond vampire Caius, seems to have a reworked 'do. "His hair is A-plus!" she said. "A lot better than 'New Moon.' " And Hassell also noted the Volturi's thrones appear to have gotten a makeover. "It seems like the ones in 'New Moon' are more intricate," she said. "The ones in 'Breaking Dawn' are very square and not as ornate." It's hard to say what accounts for such changes; the same production designer, for example, worked on both films. But it does raise the question: What else has changed in the world of "Twilight" for these final films?

Will We See The Wedding Dress Before Opening Night?

While the trailer showed us much more than many predicted — a shirtless Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black, Bella quizzically examining her pregnant belly — there was one thing we didn't catch a glimpse of: Bella's wedding dress. Might we see the gown in a subsequent trailer? Or will Summit hold that back until the film itself? "I'm hoping beyond hope that we get the wedding dress in the next trailer. I'm not holding my breath. I think we'll have to wait," said Hassel, adding, "I hope it's something classic that fits in with [author] Stephenie Meyer's vision. But Kristen's gorgeous. She'll look great in anything."

MTV: Fans React to Breaking Dawn Trailer

From MTV.com (Click here to see full video screen):






Let it never be said that the "Twilight" fans don't love their favorite franchise.
MTV News asked Twi-hards worldwide to submit their responses to the "Breaking Dawn" trailer that debuted at the MTV Movie Awards, and they delivered. In wonderfully, enthusiastically hilarious spades. Now the winners have been chosen, and we can take a look at the winning videos that charmed us with their loving responses.

Our number one video came at us from two young ladies in Denmark who posted under the username AgneteFlygerHansen, and it's number one for good reason. We suggest you watch it and see what completely sincere "Twilight" adoration looks like in its purest form.

Several other video reactions made the cut: Sophia from Hawaii's response was not as loud as AgneteFlygerHansen's, but we'd argue it was equally intense. Then there's Jessika from Tennessee, who tried to contain her excitement by screaming silently, and RPad from Michigan, who came the closest to actual tears of all the other sumbitters.

We also checked in with some of the most known "Twilight" fans out there to see what they thought of the trailer, and they were as equally thrilled, albeit more subdued.
"I am blown away. I can't believe they showed as much as they did," Kara Hassell of TwilightersAnonymous.com gushed. "I'm so excited. I didn't think they would hit as many points as they did. I am very pleased with Bill Condon and how he treated it."

"The trailer was fantastic," Kallie Matthews from TwilightSeriesTheories.com weighed in. "It had way more than I thought it would, but it still just wasn't quite enough. ... I was so excited that they had Bella pregnant. The fans are excited about that and we got to see it. I am thrilled; can't wait to see the next."

Jackson & Elizabeth Tease Exclusive Movie Awards Pre-Show Surprise

From MTV.com:

The prospect of an exclusive clip from "Breaking Dawn" already has Twilighters buzzing about Sunday's MTV Movie Awards, but the exclusives don't stop there: MTV is planning another special first look, which will roll out during the red-carpet pre-show.

We know what it is and the "Breaking Dawn" stars know what it is, but viewers will have to wait until sometime Sunday between 7:30 and 9 p.m. ET/PT on MTV for the reveal. And just to tease you a bit more, Elizabeth Reaser (a.k.a. Esme Cullen) put together a list of three clues to set you off in the right direction.


"Is it possible that there was a butterfly involved? Did I give it away? Or I might have just hallucinated that," she said from the Sneak Peek Week red carpet for "The Art of Getting By." "I would assume that there would be some lavender involved -- lavender and or purple -- however you want to describe that. And it is the most coveted invite in town."

Jackson Rathbone also wants fans to watch the show, and he promises the surprise will be worth it. "If you tune in to the MTV Movie Awards this Sunday, you're going to see something ultra-special at the red carpet," he said. "That's right, something you've been waiting years for, and we're really excited to show it to you, so make sure you tune in."

Kristen & Taylor Meet MTV Movie Awards Host Jason Sudeikis

From MTV.com:

Ever since "Twilight" sank its fangs into the pop-culture landscape, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have played major roles at the MTV Movie Awards. For the past few shows, they've appeared in movie spoofs, introduced exclusive franchise footage, kissed their co-stars and even accidently dropped a Golden Popcorn onstage.


For the 2011 Movie Awards, the actors decided to get involved in the action a little bit earlier. Not that they had a choice in the matter, as two new promo spots make clear. Host Jason Sudeikis follows up on his desire to meet the nominees before show time (he's already shared face time with Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Stone and Leighton Meester), and the "SNL" funnyman surprises the "Twilight" stars in some unlikely places.

In Stewart's clip, she has just settled in to get her hair cut, when Sudeikis pops into her dressing room. "You're not my hairdresser," she tells him. "Good eye!" he responds. But the two quickly hit it off, and it's not long before he's plopping a bowl on her head and snipping away. Say goodbye to Bella Swan's long locks!

In the other spot, Lautner hails a New York City cab, only to realize Sudeikis is behind the wheel, though he admits to being "a terrible driver." Lautner tries to escape, but the Movie Awards host locks the doors. "That's weird," the Twi-werewolf tells him. Weirder still is that Sudeikis confesses he stole the taxi, and as the police sirens swirl in the background, he leaves poor Taylor locked in the car plaintively crying, "Jason!"

Hopefully, he'll find his way out by June 5, when the 2011 MTV Movie Awards air live at 9 p.m. ET from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California. Voting in all categories, from Best Villain to Best Line from a Movie, is now under way at MovieAwards.MTV.com. Voting is set to close on June 4. But voting for Best Movie will stay open through the show itself, meaning you have the chance to affect the night's biggest winner up until the very last minute.
