Robert named one of TIME Magazine’s most Influential People of 2010
I have to be careful about what I write here because it will be tweeted the moment TIME hits the stands. And if I say something bad about Rob Pattinson, I'm dead meat. That's the devotion the Twilight films inspire. It's certainly not how he planned it. And though I am continually impressed by the aplomb with which he handles the hysteria, I occasionally think he would take it all back if given the chance. Because essentially, Rob, 23, is a reserved, bookish sort of specimen, a guy who'd rather spend the night at the corner table in the pub with friends — a bit of a weirdo, frankly, in the best sense.
So how to write about someone who seems to answer Freud's rhetorical question, What do women want? Perhaps it's just worth pointing out that it'd be fun to have a beer with him even if he weren't Edward Cullen. That we haven't seen a tenth of what he can do onscreen. And that important things, beyond the veil of Hollywood, occupy his time too — music, conversation, ideas, a sense of the absurd. Which, maybe, explains why he never gets to my e-mails. I love you, Rob! Call me!

One movie or two? and now Stephenie producing Breaking Dawn!
Stephenie is producing Breaking Dawn:
“Summit Entertainment has confirmed that Academy Award® winner Bill Condon will direct THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, based on the fourth novel in author Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, is currently being written by Melissa Rosenberg, and will star Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. Wyck Godfrey, Karen Rosenfelt, and Stephenie Meyer will produce the project.”
This is awesome news because I don’t believe she has been formally credited as a producer on any of the films as of yet. Having the author as a important part in production is bound to make it close to the book! Especially with BD, it’s a daunting task for any director.
Also…do you guys want it to be one or two movies? Judging from the press release, it SOUNDS like one film, but we all know Stephenie wants two. That aspect is still entirely up in the air! Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Kristen and Rob Among “Most Beautiful”
World’s Most Beautiful 2010- Robert Pattinson, 23.
His pale, otherworldly complexion may make girls swoon, but the British heartthrob, 23, says looking the part of a lovesick vampire in the Twilight series isn’t quite as thrilling: “Having that makeup put on every single day, as soon as you get it taken off it’s like, ‘Oh, you do look normal. You look healthy now.”
Beautiful at Every Age- Kristen Stewart, 20.
When you think Valley girl the Twilight star, who plays tortured loner Bella Swan, doesn’t exactly come to mind. And you won’t catch this California native slaving over the latest fashion and beauty trends. “I think it’s ridiculous that you need to look a certain way to be conventionally pretty,” she declares.

Rosalie Hale in the 1930s
Yesterday we had questioned whether or not Rosalie and the wolf pack would be getting flashbacks in the film for their backstories, and Nikki answered the former during the live chat. She said they had been able to do a decent amount of filming in the 1930s and get a chance to explain where Rosalie’s character was coming from.
“Kristen and I shot a really intense seven page scene where I was just pouring my heart and explaining why I am the way I am,” Nikki said, adding that Rosalie was “not a one dimensional character.” “It’s a frustrating feeling. You don’t really get to say what you want to say, and you hope that you can convey what you want to say in the two seconds you’re on screen.”
She also tossed out Jack Huston’s name as the actor playing her ex-fiance Royce King, who you will know best from the TV show “Eastwick.”
David Slade’s Goofy Side
While all the actresses said that director David Slade was a great person to work with and was very detail oriented and personal, they shared tales that he also had a very silly side on set.
“David likes to step into these characters. He’s incredible with accents. He would invent like these hypothetical situations and would create these characters and we would all play along,” said Nikki, adding that it takes a certain type of person to go along with the silliness. “When you have five pounds of white make up on, it’s really important to have a light atmosphere.”
The most terrifying actor to fight with in “Eclipse”
Bryce and Nikki spent a lot of time talking about the grueling fight training they had to go through to become physically fit in the film. It meant weeks of personal training, fight training and running on huge treadmills to learn how to move evasively at a fast speed. Bryce said, of all the burly men on set, the person she was most terrified of during these training sessions was Nikki.
“I never partnered with Nikki because she was terrifying in fight training,” Bryce admitted with a laugh.
“I get really intense,” Nikki agreed.
Jackson Rathbone’s Battle Wounds
Thanks to harnesses and trained professionals, there weren’t many serious injuries sustained while filming the fight sequences in “Eclipse.” But Nikki said there was one scary moment when Jackson Rathbone was hit by a stray punch and got pretty injured.
“He got punched in the head by Kellan [Lutz], of all people,” she said. “He went to the hospital, he had a huge egg on his head. I would not want to get punched by Kellan.”
Apparently not everyone agrees with Nikki’s final statement. Bryce turned to her and said with a laugh, “I would prefer to get punched by Kellan than Nikki.”
