Nikki Reed Teams Up With DoSomething.org
Nikki Reed is encouraging teens this summer to do something with their time. She is teaming up with DoSomething.org and Staples for the 3rd Annual National Staples/Do Something 101 School Supply Drive.
Here is info shared with me in an email regarding Nikki's participation.
Nikki, star of this summer’s upcoming blockbuster film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, is encouraging teens to make a difference this summer by collecting school supplies and dropping them off at their local Staples store from July 4 through September 18. In addition, Staples customers will be able to get involved by donating $1 at any Staples store, with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting local students in need. Each Staples store will be matched to a local non-profit organization serving local youth, and DoSomething.org and Staples will ensure that all the donations get to these partners just in time for the new school year.
During the first two Do Something 101 school supply drives, Staples and DoSomething.org, with the help from celebrity supporters Jordin Sparks and Ciara, raised more than $750,000. To build on this success and help kick off the 2010 campaign, Nikki is starring in a public service announcement (PSA) that will air on television and radio stations nationwide, starting in July. Staples will also donate more than $125,000 worth of school supplies to the program.
If you'd like to get involved today visit dosomething.org for more information.
AMC Theaters to feature the Twilight Trilogy
The Twilight Sisterhood
We all knew that Cinemark theaters were going to be offering the Twilight Trilogy for one day only on June 29th with Twilight and New New Moon being shown as a lead in to the midnight showing of Eclipse. Tickets for this are available on fandango.com and cost $25 (the ticket is $24 and there is a $1 processing fee) Today, AMC Theaters have also announced that They will be offering the three movies in a package deal as well that they will be calling The Twilight Experience. AMC's package will cost $30, and while this is more expensive than Cinemark's, you will get more for your money. Should you decide to go with AMC's package, your $30 will buy you your tickets for all three films, a $10 AMC gift card (and yes you can use it at concession stands), and a Twilight lanyard (while supplies last). Also, it is important to note, that if you've already purchased your tickets for eclipse, they will accomodate your request should you wish to upgrade to the Twilight Experience package. You can go to amcentertainment.com for more info on the packaage and about upgrading. I have already purchased my ticket for the Twilight Trilogy at my local Cinemark theater (since my area has no theaters run by AMC), and will definitely report back on the Twihard craziness that is sure to be occuring at the Trilogy event.
Nikki & Bryce say the best things about Rob
In "The Sexy Stars of Twilight: Eclipse," on newsstands May 28, some of the "Eclipse" castmembers opened up about what it was like on the movie's set. The special issue also includes tons of pictures and posters, as well as factoids about the cast and the production.
For instance, cast newcomer Bryce Dallas Howard, who takes over as vampire Victoria, admitted she was initially concerned about joining the already close-knit cast, but found them incredibly welcoming.
"It was something I deeply considered and discussed with many people, because it is a very big deal," Howard says in the book. To her relief, she discovered "Rob [Pattinson] and Taylor [Lautner] are such great guys. I love those boys! And Kristen [Stewart] was like, 'Where's your baby? I want to meet him.' "
But rather than KStew, it seems Nikki Reed turned out to be the on-set babysitter. "She's like a second mom!" Howard remarks. "The other day [my baby] said, 'I miss Nikki.' I was like, 'Honey, I miss Nikki too!' "
"We're such a close family," Kellan Lutz added.
Reed also dished about what it's really like to chill with her co-stars.
"Ok, P-Fatch [Peter Facinelli] is definitely the jokester and prankster. And he's very much a father figure — safe and comforting," Reed said. "Jackson [Rathbone] is the most artsy, creative and, I think, the most talented. Liz Reaser is the most well-read. Kellan and Ashley are very similar: They're both very driven people, and they both like to go out a lot. A lot of the partying happens around them. [Pattinson] has the best heart."
How Rob flirts
Tess, the girl on the pic above with Rob, tells HAART meeting with Robert Pattinson: "So I was fairly surprised at the show with the picture of me and Robert Pattinson. So now here is to clarify the story.
I was a few years ago to visit my best friend in Barcelona, who ran training. Then we went to a night club catwalk steps. As I walked to bump Robert Pattinson, who was making the money for the film Little Ashes. Anyway he was not as well known as it is today so I did not recognize him. I stood there to dance and he came to me and asked in a perfect British accent: "I'm not going before I know your name". In a perfect English accent ... it sounded so sexy!
Who can resist? .. We danced and had a nice evening .. yes we kissed!"
