The reveal of the official Eclipse poster? Exciting.
The announcement by Adam Lambert that he’d be interested in recording a track for the Eclipse soundtrack? Very cool.
But the release of the first image from the third film in the Twilight Saga? Swoon, shriek and hyperventillation worthy!
Summit Entertainment, the movie studio responsible for the franchise, has leaked the following photo from Eclipse. On one hand, it’s simply a shot of Edward and Bella in a field of flowers.
On the other hand, IT’S A SHOT OF EDWARD AND BELLA IN A FIELD OF FLOWERS! Get excited, fans, and then get to ogling…
Among other newsworthy items related to the movie over the past couple months:
- Kirsten Prout, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Jack Huston, Jodelle Ferland, and Xavier Samuel have all been cast in key roles.
- Bryce Dallas Howard will controversially replace Rachel Lefevre as Victoria.
Fans are still buzzing over the second tidbit. Now, they can at least shift their focus back to Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s characters.
On a scale of 1 to this nut job, how excited are you for Eclipse?

He can currently been seen as a vampire torn apart by love.
But Robert Pattinson next appears on the big screen as a rebellious young man living in New York City and struggling with a family tragedy.
In Remember Me, the talented stud muffin plays Tyler, a lost 23-year old that has a strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan). He thinks he’ll remain confused and alone forever… until he meets Ally (Emilie de Ravin) via an unusual twist of fate.
Check out the Remember Me trailer now and the official poster for the film below:
During shooting, rumors sprung up that Pattinson and de Ravin were getting along mighty well off-screen… if you know what we mean!
Were these likely created by a bored tabloid culture, desperate to make headlines? Yes. But might we need to go see Remember Me and investigate the flick for signs of a relationship?
Probably. But who are we kidding? We’d see this movie anyway. It does star Robert Pattinson, after all.

New Moon has been out for less than a week, but it’s historic box office haul raises at least one question:
Will it be topped by Eclipse?
Fans won’t need to wait long for the third Twilight Saga film to hit theaters, as it’s scheduled for a June 30, 2010 premiere. In fact, Summit Entertainment just released the first official Eclipse poster:
The Eclipse poster: Love it or hate it?
While most of the New Moon cast will return for the third movie – including mainstays Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner – one shake-up has already created buzz around the flick.
In July, Rachelle Lefevre, was replaced as Victoria by Bryce Dallas Howard. The character actually plays a critical role in the third story, as she gathers together an army of newborn vampires.
We won’t give anything else away about Eclipse. Not yet, at least. There will be plenty of time for that movie’s hype throughout the winter and spring of 2010 on The Hollywood Gossip.

We love Adam Lambert, but the guy has to give Kris Allen a break.
First, he received more publicity than Allen after American Idol, even though the latter actually won.
Then, he set a release date for his new album (November 23) just a few days after Allen’s hits stores (November 17).
Now, Lambert has the nerve to start dating Ferras Alqaisi and really steal the spotlight from Kris. For shame!
Fortunately, Kris isn’t going down without a fight! Or at least a music video. Check out the official video for “Live Like We’re Dying” after the jump.

We know how much fans love to comb through Robert Pattinson pictures.
But will they sit for two hours and watch a documentary about the life of a 23-year old?
Revolver Entertainment is hoping the answer to this question is yes, as the company is releasing Robsessed on November 10.
Just a week or so prior to the premiere of New Moon, this DVD will take fans inside the life of a British actor that has gone from relative obscurity to global fame in just over a year.
It’s hard to determine how much information there could be on Pattinson, at this point in his young life, but it’s safe to assume fans will be happy as long as his face is shown often.
That’s certainly the case during the movie’s official trailer. Watch below:
Will you purchase this Robert Pattinson DVD?

Thom Yorke likes to boogie, and he wants you to, too. “I hope you dance, because this is a dance record,” he said by way of introducing “Skip Divided,” one third through the first of a two-concert solo stand last night at Los Angeles’ Orpheum Theatre. “You can just sit there like you’re at the cinema, but I hope you get down.”
The Radiohead frontman himself had been following his own advice since the first song. Entering the stage to a standing ovation, Yorke began at a standup piano facing away from the audience, pushing out the chunky chords that announce “The Eraser,” the title track from his 2006 solo album. However, as his elite backing band kicked in — Red Hot Chili Peppers’ icon Flea on bass, Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M.) on drums, Mauro Refosco (David Byrne, Bebel Gilberto) on percussion, longtime Radiohead/Yorke producer Nigel Godrich on guitar/synths/laptop — Yorke began to shake his tailfeather with aplomb. Strapping on a guitar, Yorke and Flea began their own punk-funk hootenanny, grooving in unison as they vamped on an angular disco riff; behind them, their bandmates built up waves of propulsive percussion that evoked more an LCD Soundsystem show than, say, “Karma Police.”
Yorke’s L.A. appearances, his first official solo shows backed by a band, quickly sent tremors through the blogosphere after their abrupt announcement. The wave of anticipation was impressive in a town built on hype: according to Themusicslut.com, a surprise warmup “rehearsal” two days earlier at the smaller Echoplex club drew the likes of Daft Punk, Zack De La Rocha, Neil Diamond, Celine Dion, Spike Jonze, Madonna, Prince, Rick Rubin, Slash, Sting, and, er, Barbra Streisand (at the Sunday show, however, this reporter spotted only Ed Norton and Sandra Oh, although Yorke’s Radiohead bandmate Colin Greenwood, to whom Yorke dedicated “Paperbag Writer” during the encore, was in attendance).
At both the Echoplex and Orpheum, Yorke & co. played The Eraser album in its entirety, which proved a clever conceit. The Eraser is the ultimate bedroom electronica opus, its synthetic beats influenced by dubstep and IDM starkly rhythmic. In the live setting, however, the songs, taken out of the computer realm by virtuoso musicians with such passion, suddenly became transformed into downright euphoria.
Yorke’s elastic, idiosyncratic voice obviously remains the primary attraction — his off-kilter, Joni Mitchell-style runs on “Atoms For Peace” simply startled, while his falsetto scatting in the middle of the James Brown/My Life In The Bush of Ghosts groove of “The Clock” literally proved bone-chilling. But while Yorke’s vocal melodies provide the key dynamic element, live he often subsumed himself into the band’s thrilling, unified wave of rhythm, helping draw out grooves for full hypnotic effect. Waronker’s drumming, especially the complex patterns underpinning “Black Swan” and the Johnny Cash-style railroad clip of “Atoms For Peace,” added a crucial, evocative element to the proceedings. Flea, as expected, brought the funk, giving the head-bobbing bassline in “Harrowdown Hill” extra, expert swing; the song has an angry, politically-charged lyric, but here it became a celebration of sorts.
On “Black Swan,” Yorke and Flea engaged in one of many jam-out duels, the Red Hot Chili Pepper exploring Bitch’s Brew-style low-end theory while guitars and synths chimed away hypnotically. After the sweaty, club-ready climax of “Cymbal Rush,” replete with Underworld-style synths, Yorke brought things down to earth for the encore with two new, stripped-down songs played without band backing. One, the piano-driven “Open the Floodgates,” had the frayed, homemade feel of classic Neil Young à la “After The Gold Rush.” Another, the mesmerizing ballad “Lotus Flower,” found Yorke accompanying himself with just guitar. On “Lotus Flower” and the rare Radiohead song “Super Collider,” Yorke’s voice became so impossibly supple, he seemed to be singing harmony with himself, driving the manic crowd to astounded quiet.
Yorke brought the players back for the night’s only other Radiohead song, the B side “Paperbag Writer,” and the heavy rhythms of the main set recommenced. Again, Yorke the dancer came out, even more so on the final songs of the set, the recently released new tracks “The Hollow Earth” and “Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses”; the latter of which verged on evoking, say, the loping New Orleans groove of the Meters, abetted by Godrich alternately unleashing ethereal washes of glittering harmonics and sub-bass booms. Inspired by these thumping basslines and beats, Yorke was throwing shapes like nobody’s business, sometimes verging on a moonwalk, sometimes almost pogoing, his angular moves drawing screams like Jonas Brothers: imagine Ian Curtis’ twitches but more on the beat, and you get the picture.
As deep, dark, and meaningful as Yorke’s songs are, in this context they also proved righteously fun. This was different than a Radiohead show — the sight of Flea doing his characteristic bop onstage alongside Yorke confirmed that — but it proved equally sublime: separate, yes, but perhaps equal. Solo, Yorke proved cathartic in his own way: a Radiohead show might make you weep, but Yorke and his band of merry rhythm makers will shake your body down to the ground.
Set List:
“The Eraser”
“Analyse”
“The Clock”
“Black Swan”
“Skip Divided”
“Atoms For Peace”
“And It Rained All Night”

Forget that Bluetooth headset. Jon Gosselin has gone truly high-tech and launched his official Twitter page. Hey, even the King of Pimps needs a running diary upon which to share far too much information no one needs to know.
Now we can see photos like this around the clock …
Yes. Our lives would be less enriched had we not seen, and subsequently shared, this photo of Jon Gosselin playing slot machines on his trip to Las Vegas.
God bless Twitter. Other scintillating updates from Jon’s weekend trip:
- “On the plane, can’t wait to see the kids!!! The sugar factory goodies are on the way, they’ll flip when they see it all.”
- “Hey everyone, today marks the official start of the Jon Gosselin Children’s Foundation- very excited to start this chapter of my life”
- “Sugar Factory hooked me up with Mady and Cara’s favorite candy. Definitely looking forward to seeing those smiles when I get home!”
- “Cooling off from the 110 degree weather with some AC and ViB Vacation In a Bottle (easily the most refreshing part of my day!)”
- “Amazing day with my friends and family (thanks Mom) at Wet Republic! Thanks to the MGM Grand Hotel, this place rocks!”
We know, it’s really boring. Where are the risque shots of you in bed with Hailey Glassman, Jon? Don’t you know that Twitter is for narcissists in love with their own celebrity and fans who enjoy following slow-moving train wrecks?
Give the people what they want!
