Eclipse casting has officially begun! 25-Year-old Australian actor Xavier Samuel was confirmed to play Riley, Victoria’s companion. This will be Samuel’s U.S. film debut.

Billy Burke, who plays Kristen Stewart’s dad in the Twiliight movies, has been denying a relationship between Kristen and her sexy co-star Robert Pattinson. It seems that he has changed his mind about the two being together. Check out this quote he made to E! Online:

“At first when I heard the rumors, I said bulls–t, pardon my French,” Burke told us. “I think fans want to believe what they see, but you know what I say? Leave [Rob and Kristen] alone! Who knows what’s going on, only they do, but people should just let the kids be.”

Sounds like he is neither confirming nor denying.

Most Twilight fans all over the world would love to see Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart go public with their relationship. That is, all of them except for Robert Pattinson’s aunt. Visit New Moon – Twilight to find out what she said to Life and Style Magazine about Kristen.

According to Twilight Gear, Taylor Lautner, star of Twilight and New Moon, has confirmed that he will be a presenter at this year’s Teen Choice Awards. Taylor starred as Quileute teen Jacob Black in the blockbuster movie Twilight and will assume the lead male role in this fall’s highly-anticipated sequel New Moon. In New Moon, Edward leaves Bella and Jacob is there to pick up the pieces. Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen in the Twilight movies, will also be attendance. Twilight is nominated in 12 categories.

Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the Twilight saga movies, has revealed the scene from the novel New Moon that he really hopes makes it into the movie.

He told the Sunday Paper:

“There’s a scene with Bella (Kristin Stewart) where I stitch her up. I was excited to shoot that scene because it was a pivotal scene. It kind of sets up the whole reason why Rob’s character doesn’t want to change her into a vampire. I hope it stays in the movie because I feel like it’s essential and it’s a really nice scene for Carlisle and Bella; it’s an intimate thing. It’s a scene where a lot of information is being given and it shows another side of Carlisle, a soft side of him that I like. I’d be bummed if that was out.”

Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning reported became very close friends while filming the Twilight sequel New Moon together in Montepulciano, Italy this summer. Now it seems the two are even closer. The two are starring together in a biopic about the life of female rocker Joan Jett called “The Runaways.” Kristen portrays Jett at a young age, and Dakota stars as singer Cherie Curie. In the movie, Kristen and Dakota have an intense girl-on-girl kissing scene that results in their clothes being cast aside according to Life and Style magazine. Kristen Stewart is impressed with Dakota Fanning’s maturity as an actress. Referring to their kissing scene, Stewart says, “Dakota’s very controlled and poised. She’s going to have to lose herself in this because it’s pretty heavy.”

Kiowa Gordon, who will soon be famous for his role as wolf pack member Embry Call in the Twilight sequel New Moon, just made his first public appearance since being cast in this fantastic role. He admitted to having fake abs in the movie and described his amazing wolf transformation to Indian Country Today.

“Within a couple of weeks word came he landed the part of Embry Call. “My mom got an e-mail. She was ecstatic.” After speaking to the director on the phone, he was off to Los Angeles for a “cyberscan.” It’s a technique used in many movies to create real-life animation. “A machine went around my body to create a computer image so I could be transformed into a werewolf.”

“We spend an hour in makeup (basically) getting darker and they enhanced our abs,” laughs Gordon. “It was really cold, one degree Celsius. We wore robes before our shoots. All our scenes were outdoors. We had to get in the rain.”

Ashley Greene got personal with the Examiner talking about her new haircut, her secret crush, and even shared her beauty tips. Read the interview here at Always Twilight:

Gabrielle: What is your daily beauty regimen?

Ashley: I started using BORBA products… they’re amazing and leave my face glowing. My daily regimen usually consists of the BORBA: Age Defying Micro Diamond Cleanser, Elastin Fiber Concentrate, HD Illuminating light effects serum, Orbital Eye Rejuvenator and the Age Defying Advanced Recovery Cream. To get eye makeup off, I use the Lancome remover. I also use the MAC wipes to get all the makeup off before my regimen. And of course sunscreen…usually Kiehl’s or Dermalogica. Dermalogica also has a really great “special clearing booster” for spot treatment on blemishes.
Is your regimen any different when you’re filming?

It’s a little more involved on set with hot towel treatments and Demalogica pre-cleanse to get all that white makeup off. We use a lot Dermalogica products…I love the Microfoliant!
Do you like to wear makeup when not filming, or do you prefer to go natural?

I don’t really wear foundation…I prefer tinted moisturizer if anything. Usually after the Borba process I don’t need it – my skin is in pretty healthy shape. It’s usually Mascara, concealer and lip gloss.
You recently cut your hair (and it looks great!). Was it for your role as “Alice”, or something you wanted to do for yourself? Do you prefer it shorter or longer?

Thanks! I cut it to make my hair fit under the Alice wig properly. I didn’t have to go quite so short but I figured it’s the only time I would EVER do it. I’m a long hair girl… I’ve had long hair my whole life. It’s cute short, but I’ll grow it back out.
In your opinion, what makes someone beautiful?

I think a lot of what makes someone beautiful is how a person presents themselves. I was talking to someone the other day about how I find French woman so beautiful… it’s something they possess inherently. I feel like when someone has a zest for life they come off vibrant and beautiful.
What are your favorite beauty products?

BORBA (all of which I mentioned) and Dermalogica. I love Matrix sleek products for my hair – they work very well for me. Rose bud lip gloss is the best. YSL has a great illuminating concealer. Shiseido you can’t go wrong with either… their tinted moisturizer is great. I also just found this amazing line in Europe called “Becca;” their stuff is amazing… I have to stock up when I go back because it isn’t sold in the US!
Who is your beauty icon?

Audrey Hepburn is classically beautiful.
Did you always want to get into acting? If you weren’t acting what would you want to be doing?

I caught the acting bug when I was about 15. I was interested in a lot of things growing up… Law, Sociology, and Psychology mainly. I always loved doing make-up as well.
You hosted the DonateMyDress prom-dress drive, which looked like an amazing event! How was that experience?

It was amazing. Nothing can top that feeling of helping someone else out and seeing their joy. To see first-hand how you can give so much to someone by doing so little is incredible.
Do you ever have mornings where you wake up and just don’t feel beautiful? If so, what do you do to make yourself feel better?

Um, yeah, all the time! No one is perfect, everyone has their insecurities. The gym helps a bit Usually getting out in the fresh air helps you focus on everything around you and not so much on yourself.
When you’re not portraying a character, what are your everyday outfits? Are you more of a casual, sweatpants, jeans and t-shirt girl, or do you like to dress up?

I LOVE dressing up on red carpets but in everyday life I am a very Florida-casual, jeans, tee’s and flipflops girl. I have so many sweats I don’t know where to put them all… I love them!

What is playing on your ipod right now?

Jason Mraz and Kings of Leon. Oh and always Lady GaGa at the gym!
What is something about you that someone would never guess just from meeting you?

I’m a romantic…but only when I find the right person. Otherwise, I’m like a dude in a relationship.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years (if you’re even thinking that far down the line)?

I don’t. I can’t. I’ve got so much going on right now… my life is kind of a whirlwind at the moment.
What were you like in high school?

I was just ready to get out…..I like learning, but I get bored easily. I was very social, very involved very independent. I had a lot going on.
Who is your celebrity crush?

Hmmm……Love everyone from Kings of Leon….I’ve got a crush on the band as a whole. I maaaay have a crush on LiL Wayne and I’m pretty sure I’ve got a crush on Jackson Rathbone too.
Lip Gloss or Lip Stain?

Gloss… and Chapstick.
Heels or Flats?
Depends…. Almost ALWAYS flat during the day.

Now we all know that Robert Pattinson is good-looking enough to stop traffic, but this is ridiculous! The Twilight/New Moon star was crossing the street in New York City near Strand Bookstore on Broadway and 12th street when he was nearly mobbed by a group of teenage fans. His bodyguards tried to rush him quickly across the street, but he was grazed on the hip by a taxi cab. The driver reportedly slammed on his brakes and just looked at him stunned. Rob’s spokesperson officially told the press that Rob is ok. Thank God!
