Robert Pattinson and a fellow capped British actor, BFF Tom Sturridge, are spotted out and about in New York City on Sunday afternoon (June 7). On Friday, the twosome was spotted downing drinks at Black & White bar in the East Village. Soon, Rob, 23, will be shooting his next movie, Remember Me, in downtown NYC. Former James Bond star Pierce Brosnan will to play Rob’s dad. Lost star Emilie de Ravin was cast in the film, playing a young woman who, after watching her mother get killed before her eyes, seizes life to its fullest

Eminem returned to the spotlight Sunday, spitting the lyrics of his name-dropping singles “We Made You” and “Crack A Bottle” from his hit album Relapse at the MTV Movie Awards. But not long after his performance, he stormed away from his seat in the auditorium when Sacha Baron Cohen, dressed as his flamboyant character Brüno in angel wings and a barely-visible thong, descended on wires and landed face down in the rapper’s lap. Bodyguards pounced and Eminem’s entourage made its exit in what was the most outrageous moment of a night of filled with irreverence. Other examples: host Andy Samberg spoofing box office hits like Slumdog Millionaire (which was nominated six times but came up empty handed) and Star Trek, Amy Poehler accepting the Golden Popcorn trophy for the best “WTF moment” and Forest Whitaker singing an operatic rendition of Samberg’s Emmy Award winning song “D- in a Box.” But the night belonged to the film sensation Twilight, which picked up five awards, including the top prize for best movie. After Shia LaBeouf handed out the best fight award to its stars Robert Pattinson and Cam Gigandet for their tussle in the vampire movie, Pattinson also picked up the award for the best breakthrough performance by a male. Later, he and costar Kristen Stewart teased the crowd by nearly reenacting the kiss between their characters Edward Cullen and Bella Swan while accepting the award for best buss. Stewart also won the prize for best female performance. “I was just about as awkward as you thought I was going to be,” the flustered star said at the podium. Other winners included High School Musical 3: Senior Year’s Ashley Tisdale, who won in the female breakthrough performance category while her costar Zac Efron (see photo) won for best male performance. Jim Carey won for best comedic performance for his role in Yes Man and Heath Ledger was posthumously honored for his legendary performance in The Dark Knight. The best song from a movie went to Miley Cyrus for “The Climb,” which was featured in Hannah Montana: The Movie.
Efron, Kiefer Sutherland and Triumph the Insult Dog presented former MTV Movie Awards host Ben Stiller with the MTV Generation Award, honoring the actor for a career of “selling out box offices without selling out.”

British heart-throb Robert is in the medieval town of Montepulciano in Tuscany filming scenes for New Moon Kristen, who stars as Bella Swan in the vampire flick, has been exploring the area with her hunky co-star during breaks from filming Italian fans of Twilight were given a glimpse of the action in the sequel to the saga as Robert Pattinson and his co-stars began lensing more scenes for New Moon this week. Twenty-three-year-old Robert and Kristen Stewart who plays the British heart-throb’s love interest Bella in the vampire fantasy, are currently filming in the medieval town of Montepulciano in Tuscany. The move to the Italian location follows a stint on the movie’s Vancouver set. News of the arrival of the cult hit’s cast didn’t take long to reach the locals. Dozens of excited fans camped outside Robert’s hotel hoping to catch a glimpse of their idol. In breaks from filming Robert and Kristen, who play an on-screen couple, have been taking in the local sights. Picturesque Montepulciano stands in for Volterra, the home of the vampire coven known as the Volturi, whose leader Aro is played by newcomer Michael Sheen. Another newcomer is Dakota Fanning, who plays a vampire who can create the illusion of pain. The movie focuses on the relationship between Robert’s supernatural character Edward Cullen and teen Bella who is devastated when he abruptly disappears. And she finds herself drawn into the world of werewolves – ancestral enemies of the vampires – by her growing friendship with Jacob Black, played by 17-year-old Taylor Lautner, and finds her loyalties tested. For those who can’t wait to see the new film, due to be released in the UK on November 27, there’s a chance to see a clip from it on Sunday when Robert, Kristen and Taylor present it at the MTV Movie Awards.

Robert Pattinson was unable to escape the attention of the press at the Cannes Film Festival. The Twilight star was mobbed as he attempted to make his way around the event in the South of France. The 23-year-old actor is in Cannes to promote New Moon, the second film in the Twilight saga. The movie, which is released in November, will see Rob’s character, vampire Edward Cullen, fall into a love triangle with girlfriend Bella Swan and Jacob Black. The vampire will play a more prominent role in the movie than in the original novel, where he is mainly a voice in girlfriend Bella Swan’s head. “You’re playing a figment in Bella’s imagination so I was trying to do it in a 2D way,” he told the Hollywood Reporter. “I hope it doesn’t translate onscreen as being boring.” Rob also confirmed that he will star in the fourth film in the series, Breaking Dawn. The actor had already signed up for the third movie, Eclipse - which is due to begin filming in October.

Having made his way back to the States, “Twilight” hunk Robert Pattinson was spotted visiting a studio in Venice, California on Saturday (May 9). Sporting his classic style in a plaid shirt, jeans and ray-ban sunglasses, the Edward Cullen actor stopped inside for a short while before finishing up and heading out to his nearby car. Interestingly enough, actress Emmy Rossum also paid a visit to the very same studio - looking as if the pair may be teaming up for a new movie. As previously reported by Gossip Girls, Robert just made the trip back to the States after enjoying a “New Moon” cast party in Vancouver the previous night.

People has unveiled its 20th annual 100 Most Beautiful People list, and overall we have to say the list was fairly predictable. Angelina Jolie, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry and People’s Sexiest Man Alive Hugh Jackman all made the list along with Michelle Obama and those much discussed arms of hers. Pop phenoms Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Zac Efron, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato were also not shocking additions. We highly approve of relative newcomers and on-screen couples Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart from “Twilight,” and Dev Patel and Frieda Pinto of “Slumdog Millionaire.” We’re 100% behind the decision for a “Stars Without Makeup” section, including our favorite supermodel ever, Cindy Crawford, and the cute girls of “90210. Kudos also to the comedians on the list who prove nothing is sexier than a sense of humor. Jimmy Fallon, Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, Tina Fey, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Mann and Chelsea Handler all made the cut. Now on to the more surprising decisions! Christina Applegate made the cover! We’ve loved the actress since her early days on “Married with Children,” and though the show isn’t a smash, we were glad to see Applegate rebound into the spotlight with “Samantha Who?” as well as a stint on Broadway. Though she was an unlikely choice, her breast cancer double mastectomy and recovery story is surely one of the most beautiful tales we witnessed all year. At 37 years old, Applegate remains as pretty on the outside as she is in her heart. Here’s where People’s list starts to fall off. Aside from the obvious choices that bored us, the magazine screws up and picks Taylor Momsen, young Jenny from “Gossip Girl,” instead of Leighton Meester or Blake Lively, the stunning Blair and Serena. Sure, they might have been on last year’s list, but they are far and above the prettiest young things on TV. And the worst thing about the list? People singles out two of the Jonas Brothers—Nick and Joe Jonas—and excludes Kevin Jonas from the list. Way to be completely shallow! As women who don’t even fully understand or appreciate the obsession with the Jonas Brothers, we still think this move is totally screwed up, and thus have soured on the list. The 100 Most Beautiful People in the World issue hits newsstands later this week.
