2010 MTV Movie Awards

Its the time of the MTV Movie Awards again! The Hangover, New Moon, Avatar lead 2010 MTV Movi Awards nomination. And this time The Twilight Saga: New Moon dominates with 5 nominations, excluding Kristen, Robert and Taylor are nominated under the category ‘Global Superstar’!

Well, “Twilight” fans, you’ve done it again.

Thanks to Twilighters’ undying love (and constant voting), “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” has five nominations at this year’s MTV Movie Awards: Best Movie, Best Female Performance (Kristen Stewart), Best Male Performance (Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner), Best Kiss (Stewart and Pattinson) and Global Superstar (a new category this year for which Stewart, Pattinson and Lautner are all nominated). “New Moon” came in just behind “The Hangover,” which scored six nods.

In the coveted Best Kiss category, Stewart and Pattinson will defend their title against some familiar and interesting competition. They’ll face Lautner, who is nominated for his kiss with Taylor Swift in “Valentine’s Day,” and Stewart will compete against herself for her kiss with Dakota Fanning in “The Runaways” (other kissing couples include Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds for “The Proposal” and Zoe Saldana and Sam Worthington, for “Avatar”).

Fitting with the Team Edward vs. Team Jacob rivalry, Pattinson and Lautner will also go head-to-head in the Best Male Performance category (with Channing Tatum in “Dear John,” Daniel Radcliffe in “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” and Zac Efron in “17 Again” rounding out the rest of the nominees in that category).

Here are a couple of feedback of those who thought of how we’re going to get nominated for the ‘New Moon’!

Kristen Stewart Scores Two Best Kiss Nods for MTV Movie Awards

KStew is not only nominated for her steamy kiss with Robert Pattinson in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” but she could also win for her girly lip-lock with Dakota Fanning in “The Runaways.” Stewart has been quite the busy girl this year!

When MTV News caught up with the star last year, we asked which big-screen co-star was the better kisser: RPattz’s Edward Cullen or Fanning’s Cherie Currie. “Cherie, yeah,” Stewart laughed.

Nikki Reed Calls ‘New Moon’ MTV Movie Awards Nods ‘Wonderful’

“I mean, it’s wonderful — [especially] when you make a movie and you have absolutely zero expectations,” she told MTV News at the Young Hollywood Awards on Thursday night. Reed added that the cast had no idea that the “Twilight” phenomenon would resonate so strongly and passionately with their fans.

“When we made ‘Twilight,’ none of us knew what it was going to become. There’s inevitably a certain amount of pressure going back,” she continued. “You want to make sure the second one is just as good, so I guess we’re all really happy and relieved. All the actors love the books and the movies just as much as the fans.”

Go ahead and start voting for the Best Movie just like last year at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards!


Happy Chinese New Year & Happy Valentine’s Day! [Edited]

It’s a rare occasion to celebrate Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day on the same day! Without further ado, Twilight Singapore would like to wish all the Chinese readers a very Happy Chinese New Year! Its a New Year and we hope that the year of the Tiger is a good year for all of us! We  would also like to wish all Twilighters a Happy Valentine’s Day! Enjoy the long weekend guys! And if you have the time, do catch Taylor Lautner in Valentine’s Day, showing in cinemas now! :)

EDIT: (Added by Profit2829) Checkout the ICE HEART @ Times Square!

The heart will be at Times Square till February 22nd and you can check on it till then and see the changes as it melts. New York is sooo cold that I don’t think it’ll melt at all!  You can track it here at Moorhead & Moorhead who designed the sculpture!

Times Square Valentine, 2010

Ice Heart is a 10 foot tall heart constructed of masonry scaled blocks of ice. Kaleidoscopic in nature, the ice blocks pick up the lights, colors and activity of Times Square, feeding off its natural chaos.

Ultimately Ice Heart is a celebration of the temporary nature of the Times Square Valentine installation. Left to run its own course, the heart will slowly transform, as it melts, eventually disappearing completely.

Whilst at Times Square we also checked out the ‘Remember Me’ poster. The billboard was over at 43rd Street. 


Taylor turns 18!

Twilight Singapore would like to wish Taylor Lautner a very happy 18th birthday! Wishing Taylor all the best for his future! Do remember to catch Taylor in Valentine’s Day which opens today!

Access Hollywood has even wished and surprised Taylor on his birthday while they at the World Premiere of ‘Valentine’s Day’!

A long post today with updates from the Twilight cast members who are making waves of their own – Anna Kendrick, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

Anna Kendrick has down a new interview with Reuters.com - talking about what she’s been up to and being Jessica Stanley.

This week, Kendrick, 24, earned a supporting actress Oscar nomination for her work in “Up in the Air,” playing a perky young executive out to teach George Clooney’s character how to fire people in the modern-day world of computer communication.

The Oscar nod — her first — followed her role in November’s box office hit “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” and this week Vanity Fair anointed her one of the fresh faces to watch in its annual Hollywood issue.

But the truth is, Kendrick’s “fresh face” has been racking up accolades on stage and in independent films for years before she hit the mainstream jackpot with the “Twilight” movies and now “Up in the Air.”

Still, this past week’s Oscar nomination and the month of awards shows and critical acclaim that came before it have caught Kendrick in a whirlwind of big-time Hollywood publicity that she still can’t quite grasp.

“There’s always a part of you that’s going to feel like a version of yourself that couldn’t find a job and you wonder what tricks you pulled to get into the party,” Kendrick told Reuters.

While she may not have been in the Oscar “party” before, it’s not the first time, Kendrick has won the hearts and minds of critics and fans. At age 12, she was the third youngest Tony Award nominee for her role in Broadway musical “High Society.”

Five years later, her singing and dancing wowed audiences in the 2003 musical film “Camp.” It was Kendrick’s first-ever movie and resulted in an Independent Spirit Award nomination. A second Indie Spirit nod followed with 2007′s “Rocket Science.”

She still has one more “Twilight” film, “Eclipse,” due in theaters on June 30. In the saga, Kendrick portrays Jessica Stanley, a friend and classmate of lead character Bella Swan. It is a small role, but enough to make her a recognizable face to her fans without overshadowing the rest of her career.

“I’ve been really lucky to not be defined completely by that series,” says Kendrick.

The entire cast originally signed contracts for the first three installments, and Kendrick said she still does not know if her character will be in the fourth film, “Breaking Dawn.”

“I honestly feel like Jessica is one of those characters that if she wasn’t in the movie, nobody would miss her,” she says. “At the same time, I feel a certain affection for the films so if they ask me, I would love to. I don’t have my fingers crossed either way.”

Check out Taylor Lautner in Valentine’s Day:

A great read for K-Stew fans. For Kristen Stewart, this is her dawn by LA Times:

Call it a casting fluke, call it kismet. In both of her movies premiering at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Kristen Stewart portrays a 16-year-old runaway.

For the gritty family drama “Welcome to the Rileys,” the “Twilight Saga” star inhabits a role quite unlike Bella Swan, the long-suffering vampire-lover character that made Stewart an international icon. She plays Mallory, a stripper-hooker with a porn star’s wardrobe and a mascara-tarred visage whose sexual frankness could make a trucker blush.

In the high-octane coming-of-age drama “The Runaways,” meanwhile, Stewart portrays real-life proto-punk Joan Jett, who co-founded the all-girl teenage rock band called — you guessed it — the Runaways at age 16. In the film, Stewart’s character snorts cocaine, makes out with costar Dakota Fanning and drunkenly urinates on an electric guitar.

In this next article from MTV, Kristen compares her role in ‘Welcome to the Rileys’ and ‘Twilight’:

In an earlier interview with MTV News, the actress argued that even though the film presents her in a far different light than the “Twilight” films, fans of the vampire franchise will find much to connect with in “Rileys.”

“Most ‘Twilight’ fans are young girls, and this is a really, really good story for them,” she said. “It just sort of opens your eyes. You just don’t have any options.”

Dakota & Kristen is featured in EW for being the Stars of Sundance. Thank you ___thatshott via lion_lamb.
