Before Edward Cullen, these fictional hotties leapt off the page and into our hearts.
Like it or not, Edward Cullen is the fictional hottie du jour. Never before have women been so enamored by a sparkly, lovesick centenarian torn between protecting his girlfriend and eating her for dinner. Despite Edward's edgy persona and "angelic" good looks, we're not convinced that he's the literary dreamboat that thousands of Twilight fans have made him out to be (our friends at lemondrop aren't convinced either, it turns out). What can we say? Book hotties of the past have set the bar pretty high, and we're not entirely signed on to the "being watched through our … Read More
YourTango goes inside real-life vampire relationships.
These days, it seems, everyone wants to bed a vampire. Forget Bram Stoker's Count Dracula, a hideous foreigner intent on taking the life and the virtue of nineteenth-century English ladies. Today's vampires, like True Blood's Bill Compton and Twilight's Edward Cullen, are portrayed as crush-worthy hunks. Their combination of unearthly beauty, perfect chivalry and dangerous nature make them irresistible to women.
Bill, Edward and co. are the stuff of fiction, but there is, in fact, a community of people who identify as vampires and existed long before the current pop culture craze. So what's it like to date a … Read More
Sparkly Rob can't get a date, cries all the time.
Pity poor Robert Pattinson. He's stalked by screaming teenage girls wherever he goes, suffers an incurable allergy to shampoo, and despite his popularity with the Trapper-Keeper set and their emotionally immature mothers, can't get a date. Yeah. We believe that.
Rob, just kicking off the worldwide publicity push for next month's New Moon, tells the Sydney Morning Herald that despite playing emo vampire Edward Cullen, he's still not quite sure why his mere presence invites such hysteria. "Yesterday, I was having lunch down the road," he says. "We were in this place for a couple of hours and suddenly … Read More
Man wanted for wife's killing located in Canada.
Ryan Jenkins, the contestant on VH1's Megan Wants a Millionaire and I Love Money 3 who was charged with the gruesome murder of his wife, model Jasmine Fiore, was found dead Sunday in a western Canada motel room. Sources say Jenkins hanged himself with his own belt in the Thunderbird Motel outside Vancouver.
Fiore, a swimsuit model who had worked for Playboy, met and married Jenkins in March. They became estranged in May and he was charged in Las Vegas in June with misdemeanor battery for hitting her, but the couple had reportedly reconciled by August 14, when … Read More
4 reasons why Twilight isn't an example of love in the real world.
Some of you told me I wouldn’t like Twilight, but I bought the book anyway just to see what all the hoopla was about. Well, I finally finished it, and…I appreciated the romance-factor, but I couldn’t help thinking it was giving girls the wrong idea about love and relationships. I did a feminist reading of Twilight and here’s what bugged me:
1. Bella has no outside hobbies.
After she moves to Washington, Bella makes a few friends, but she’s not interested in them. Mostly her life is about Edward, Edward, Edward. But what relationship can survive that? Take it from Simone … Read More
The Twilight star is single and doesn't know what girls see in Edward Cullen.
Robert Pattinson says he is single and not, repeat, not dating his co-star Kristin Stewart.
In an interview with Britian's OK! Magazine, Robert said that he was "young, free and single" and simply "very good friends," with Kristin. We suppose that means he's not dating any of his alleged other girlfriends such as Camilla Belle, Natalie Portman, and New Moon co-star Nikki Reed
But according to Robert, although he thinks his female fans are "awesome" he doesn't believe he has it in him to be a heartthrob. Watch: Vampires Make Better Boyfriends
We beg to … Read More
How could the sexual tension between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart not spill off-screen?
It's late July, do you know where your nerds are? If they're smart (and rich) nerds, they're in sunny, southern California rubbing elbows with Orcs, Morks and dorks at Comic-Con. The festival started out as a gathering of people interested in sci-fi, super heroes, fantasy and the occult. But it's morphed into a massive multi-media event that touches everything involving magic, paranormal and capes. Where there was once a few guys dressed like Jedi, there is now thousands and thousands of fans waiting in line to check out the latest sneak peek blockbuster preview, meet the writer of their … Read More
A blog on The Daily Beast infers that something truly foul is afoot in Bon Temps.
Are you familiar with the show True Blood? It's part of the vampire invasion of aught eight. The program features few of the cuddly and cute bloodsuckers from the Twilight series (though Bill Compton does have a lot in common with handsome Edward Cullen). These undead sons (and daughters) of the night are dark, dangerous and debauched. They care about two things: feeding and fornicating (not necessarily in that order).
Thanks to a synthetic blood developed by Japanese scientists, the vampires in the world of True Blood have come "out of the coffin" and into mainstream … Read More
Stalkers and groupies have really made filming in New York tricky for the Twilight star.
The British and brooding heartthrob (one-part Austin Powers, one-part Richard Grieco) Robert Pattinson does not care for stalking. He does not care for it one bit. All in all, he'd prefer adulation and fame on his terms. According to Celebitchy, the Twilight star (and Harry Potter third fiddle) is sick and tired of American women stalking him.
Robert Pattinson is in New York (City) filming his latest picture, Remember Me, and the ladies of the Big Apple will not leave him alone. Evidently, they grab at him and make a spectacle anytime he's in public. He reportedly … Read More
But the Twilight hunk may be up to something with co-star Nikki Reed.
According to Kristen Stewart's actual boyfriend, Enrico Palazzo (kidding, his name is Michael Angarano), the star of Twilight is not dating her on-screen love-interest Robert Pattinson.
Per E! Online's report (via Yahoo!), Michael Angarano is totally not the sort of guy who would get hot, bothered and jealous over his girlfriend performing loving scenes with a smolderingly good-looking Englishman (or a handsome, older opera singer like Enrico Palazzo). In fact, the rumored hook-up between Robert Pattinson, that sexy bastard, and the adorable Kristen Stewart is being chalked up to wishful thinking on the part … Read More
