Twilight Coven Philippines

The 2nd Entertainment Weekly issue featuring Twilight is now out in US newsstands. It has three collectible covers featuring Rob, Kristen, and Rob/Kristen. Everglow has posted scans here.

BellaSugar.com interviewed Twilight Make-Up Artist Jeanne Van Phue, and she revealed the specific cosmetics she used to create Kristen Stewart's look as Bella. Click here to read the feature.

Film School Rejects have posted their review of the Soundtrack here.

The LA Times has published part 2 of their interview with Catherine Hardwicke in today's edition of their Twilight Countdown. One of the many interesting things that Catherine talked about is the real story behind Rob and his involvement in the creation of Bella's Lullaby. She was also asked about her collaboration with Nikki Reed, and in her answer, she mentioned Nikki playing "Rosalie Cullen" in Twilight. No, this doesn't seem to be a mistake. We've read the production notes for the film from Summit, and all throughout, Rosalie and Jasper were referred to as Rosalie and Jasper Cullen. In the Teen Vogue Cast Interview, Jackson Rathbone also referred to his character as Jasper Cullen. So this seems to be a change that the writers made, most likely to make things simpler for the people who haven't read Twilight and are being introduced to the Saga for the first time via the movie. We will discuss the production notes in the next episode of Danag: The Filipino Twilight Podcast. Meanwhile, click here to read the full interview with Catherine.

InStyle Magazine is on a roll! They have a bunch of new articles about the film: Before They Were Vampires (please add werewolf, InStyle. ;) ), Twilight's Robert Pattinson Causes a Riot in NYC, Twilight Fashion, and Six Degrees of Twilight [Darn, once again, somebody beat me to a feature idea.]

HGE has a scan of Cam Gigandet's new ad for GAP. [Mabelle thanks you, HGE and JustJared. And wow, Preppy suits Cam well. Repeat after us: Cam never disappoints.]

Lastly, Entertainment Weekly has a very revealing interview with Stephenie Meyer. Why revealing? In an unpublished segment of Episode 1 of Danag, we discussed the Midnight Sun Issue, and it was a collective opinion among the panelists that we thought Stephenie should have asked her publicists to write her statement for her instead of posting such an emotional letter on her site. It turns out, her publicists did write that letter, as she herself revealed in this EW interview. Whoa. Steph also revealed how she felt after watching a preview of Twilight, her thoughts about Rob [best description of Rob that I've ever read and totally agree with, thank you, Steph!], the fan reception for Breaking Dawn, and more about her planned books [now those sirens really sound interesting....].

Oh, and we'd like to join The Lexicon and HGE in using "Dark High Noon" as a code name for Midnight Sun. That was inspired! Thanks, Patience (from the Lex comments)!
