in Cast & Characters, Music, Videos
MTV has an article up talking about Cam Gigandet, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner’s appearance at the VMA’s last year. They introduced Paramore’s performance and as we all remember the host, Russell Brand, rudely cut off Robert and he only got to say two words. Needless to say fans were a bit ticked off.
Well, Russell is back hosting again this year and let’s hope he has learned his lesson.

Stephenie makes Vanity Fair’s “The New Establishment List”
by Leandra on September 2, 2009
in Stephenie Meyer
Stephenie Meyer made Vanity Fair’s list of “The New Establishment of 2009″.
Below is what Vanity Fair had to say about Stephenie:
82. Stephenie Meyer
Author
NEW ENTRY.
STAGE OF GLOBAL CONQUEST: The Mormon housewife’s Twilight teen-vampire romance novels sold nearly 29 million copies in one year, capturing the top four positions on the USA Today best-seller list for 2008, making her the first author ever to do so. (J. K. Rowling came close with Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 5 with her Harry Potter titles in 2000.) The movie version of Twilight grossed $191 million in the U.S., and the film adaptation of her second book, New Moon, opens in November. Meyer has also inspired hundreds of Web sites from fans who call themselves “Stephen-ites” or “Twi-hards.”
MARITAL RELATIONS: Her husband, Christian, quit his job as an auditor to look after their three sons.
DAILY HABITS: Drives fast but doesn’t consume alcohol or caffeine.
LEGEND HAS IT: Meyer, 35, began writing as a 29-year-old Phoenix housewife in 2003 after dreaming of vampires one night. She wrote 10 pages the next morning before driving her sons to swimming lessons. She moved a desk into the living room and finished her 130,000-word first novel in only three months.
THORN IN HER SIDE: Stephen King, who said that “Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn.”
NEW THORN IN HER SIDE: Jordan Scott, who has alleged in a lawsuit filed in August that Meyer stole ideas from her 2006 vampire novel The Nocturne, and used them in Breaking Dawn, which Meyer published in 2008. Meyer’s publisher has said that the claims are meritless.
YEAR AHEAD: ?
