Rob to attend the LA Breaking Dawn Convention – did we hear that right?

Yesterday, Cullyn and I were having a fantastic day at the Baltimore Twilight Convention when it was time to gather for the much-anticipated auction session. During the auction, Creation Entertainment offers Twilight Saga items ranging from action figures to the coveted convention banners for fans to bid on and take home. At the last LA TwiCon in March we scored a great deal on a Volturi banner ($70!) , so we were primed for bidding battle!

After about 15 minutes, the host/auctioneer decided it was time for a Robert Pattinson banner to go up for auction. For the prior banners, he threw in an autograph ticket so the celebrity guests at the Baltimore event could sign them…making the items even more valuable! When talking about the RPatz banner, the auctioneer casually said, “Unfortunately, Rob is not here to sign it, but he will be at our Century City event.” The Breaking Dawn Convention on 11/4 – 11/6 is being held at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in the Century City area of Los Angeles!

Surprisingly, there wasn’t a huge reaction from the crowd, which made Cullyn and I look at each other and ask, “Did we just hear that?” Then someone from the back of the room yelled, “Would he sign it there?” At that point, we knew we heard him right. (BTW – the auctioneer did not respond to that person’s question, and no autograph ticket was provided.)

Earlier in the day, the host/auctioneer asked if anyone was attending the LA event, and we were only part of a handful of people to raise ours hands (and cheer). Plus, there weren’t a ton of people in the auction session. So, we attributed the lack of reaction to the Rob news to those two things.

Also, there was no mention of Kristen Stewart or Taylor Lautner attending the Breaking Dawn Convention, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t gong to be there…just that the auctioneer didn’t say anything about them.

So, we are super psyched! Of course, this comes with the caveat that Summit has not confirmed this news!

september 26, 2011

two years ago i made a bucket list with my best friend full of all the things i could possibly dream of. keltie + i deemed 2010 “the 10” and it was going to be the best year of our lives.

fast forward to july 2010… every single thing on my list came true (ie. quit smoking, sign a record deal, open a savings account, meet jason mraz.. etc..) seriously. it was epic + it all happened. 

so this past year keltie + i decided to do it again + this time were were going to dream even bigger! the number one thing on my list this year was:
 “HAVE A SONG ON THE BREAKING DAWN SOUNDTRACK” 
and it happened!!!!!! ahhhh!!!!! + the whole soundtrack seems amazing! im soo honored to be smack in the middle of all those artists! i am so grateful for this opportunity!

“a thousand years” is a brand new song me + my best friend david hodges wrote for bella + edward. we wrote it after we so luckily screened the movie (ahhhh! you’re all going to flip out its the best movie ever!!!) 

i couldn’t be more proud of this song.
or more proud of myself for not giving up on my dream.

the moral of this story is:

cp

Just released: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 soundtrack and artwork

At last! The long-awaited playlist for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 was released today. Unfortunately, Jackson Rathbone’s band 100 Monkeys and Robert Pattinson do not have songs on the soundtrack. Not surprisingly, the Noisettes’ tune Sister Rosetta, which played during an exclusive Breaking Dawn Comic Con clip of Bella preparing for her “big night” and caused excited fans to scramble online to identify the title and artist, is track #9.

There will be two versions of the soundtrack; one will have the songs that appear on the artwork, below, and a second that contains four bonus tracks.

Here is the soundtrack!

1. End Tapes – By The Joy Formidable (Perfect for the soundtrack! Here’s their video “Austere.”)

3. It Will Rain – By Bruno Mars (According to recent buzz, he’s Team Bella.)
4. Turning Page – By Sleeping At Last
5. From Now On – By The Features
6. A Thousand Years – By Christina Perri (She’s a Twilight fan and known for her song “Jar of Hearts.”)
7. Neighbors – By Theophilus London
8. I Didn’t Mean It – By The Belle Brigade
9. Sister Rosetta (2011 Version) – By Noisettes (Scene: Bella frantically running around preparing for the beach/wedding night.)
10. Northern Lights – By Cider Sky
11. Flightless Bird, American Mouth (Wedding Version) – By Iron & Wine (Link is to the 2008 version from Twilight.)
12. Requiem On Water – By Imperial Mammoth
13. Cold – By Aqualung & Lucy Schwartz

100 Monkeys sings hurricane song

At last night’s 100 Monkeys concert at the House of Blues in Anaheim, CA the band’s instant song was called “Hurricane.” Jackson Rathbone, who plays Confederate soldier-turned-vampire Jasper Hale in The Twilight Saga, was on lead vocals.

During every 100 Monkeys show, the band asks the audience to shout out suggestions for an instant song – then the guys create and perform it on the spot.

Here is fan @OhMyCarlisle’s YouTube video of “Hurricane.”

Did RPatz steal from his friend?

Submitted to HULIQ by Jane Lasky on 2011-08-27

Multi-talented Robert Pattinson is many things, but a thief? Not so, even though some sources are hinting at the idea that the Twilight Saga star may possibly have “stolen” a song from his friend – “stolen” being used in a very loose sense of the word.

It seems that a while back, Robert Pattinson was hanging out with mate Marcus Foster. The guys were reportedly together in a pub, when the two “sang [I Was Broken] …. and someone recorded it on their phone.” Sounds convoluted, with maybe a jealousy tinge. But let’s look at the alleged situation:

Apparently, that recording landed on the ether, and before either singer realized what was happening, the song went viral on the Internet.

Turns out the song in question — ironically dubbed I Was Broken — eventually ended up on the Twilight sound track and the rest is history as Pattinson has been able to add accomplished musician to his ample resume as rarefied thespian du jour and big time Hollywood hunk.

But did Robert Pattinson end up stealing the song from Marcus Foster? It seems that answer would be a big negative. In fact, the song in question, one that Foster claims is his, is voiced as such. On the track, as linked here, RPatz says the tune is by Marcus Foster. Credit is given where credit is due.

Meanwhile, Robert Pattinson serves as a great ambassador for the song he and Marcus Foster worked out. Indeed, as a perk of their pub work, I Was Broken has become famous — with no apparent stealing involved in the process.

The following press release provides exciting details about the upcoming Stephenie Meyer Day in Forks, WA.

THE HILLYWOOD SHOW® JOINS STEPHENIE MEYER DAY LINEUP
Creators of the TWILIGHT parody to connect with fans for a weekend of celebrations

FORKS, WA – Hannah and Hilly Hindi, creators of The Hillywood Show®, are joining with TWILIGHT fans and the citizens of Forks to celebrate Stephenie Meyer Day. Although the Hindi sisters have visited Forks three times, this will be their first appearance at the annual celebration of Stephenie Meyer and her literary world. Now in its fifth year, Stephenie Meyer Day 2011 encompasses an entire weekend of TWILIGHT-themed events from September 9-11.

“Stephenie Meyer Day has grown as an event every year, and with the addition of The Hillywood Show®, this year will be the best yet,” said Staci Chastain, organizer of Stephenie Meyer Day 2011. “The weekend isn’t just a celebration of Stephenie Meyer – it’s a celebration of all TWILIGHT fans.”

The Hillywood Show® will talk with TWILIGHT fans about parody, scriptwriting and filming during a literary symposium. They will also join designer John Henson, owner of The Twilight Costume Collection, for photo opportunities and discussions about costuming. In addition to their other work, the Hindi sisters will screen their immensely popular TWILIGHT, NEW MOON and ECLIPSE parodies.

“We are honored to be included in Stephenie Meyer Day. Without Stephenie Meyer and Twilight, The Hillywood Show® wouldn’t be where it is today,” said Hilly Hindi, co-creator of The Hillywood Show®. “Forks is truly a magical place, and The Hillywood Show® will never pass on an opportunity to visit it over and over again!”

Other guests for the weekend include York Baur, director of TWILIGHT IN FORKS; Dr. Natalie Wilson, author of SEDUCED BY TWILIGHT; Veronica Blake, author of historical romance novels; and Natalia Cherjovsky, PhD, who wrote her doctoral dissertation from Oxford on TWILIGHT.
