Ashley Greene promotes Teens for Jeans

As reported by Twilight Lexicon, E! News was going to do a feature on Kellan Lutz promoting Teens for Jeans but because another story (read bigger news?) broke, it had to be postponed.  However, to make up for it, E! sent Lexicon this adorable PSA outtake with Ashley Greene and Justin Long (the Mac guy lol) for Teens for Jeans.  It’s a good laugh! If you’re looking for more infomation on this program you can go to DoSomething.org!

Also on DoSomething.org is this story of Kellan bringing in a donation of 50 jeans. If they’re all his…wow.  If they aren’t and he collected them for the purpose of donation…still wow!

Teens for Jeans partner Aéropostale announced the big 5-0 number on its Twitter the next day. The Twilight team has really shown their passion for the campaign—Tinsel Korey joined Kellan to promote the cause, and let’s not forget this year’s PSA featuring Ashley Greene!

Take a look at DoSomething.org for more information on the Teens for Jeans program!

Robert Pattinson in London:

Rob - Haiti Telethon2

A host of massive names have been added to the Hope For Haiti Now telethon- which will take place this Friday in Los Angeles, New York and LONDON.

The event is being organised by George Clooney and MTV to raise money for the earthquake hit country- where up to 200,000 people have died.
 
We can confirm that Coldplay will perform live from the capital while Jay-Z, Rihanna, Bono and The Edge will also be in London and will play a special collaboration for the fundraiser.
 
Wyclef Jean hosts in New York with Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson, Mary. J Blige, Shakira and Sting all performing.
 
In Los Angeles Clooney will take charge of proceedings with more huge artists set to play live.
 
He’ll be joined by Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder and Taylor Swift.
 
Keith Urban, Sheryl Crow and Kid Rock are set to team up to perform at the LA leg.
 
All the tracks will then be released via iTunes with proceedings going to help Haiti. The concert will be shown live on MTV UK and later on VIVA.
Please remember to donate to known and  reliable agencies such as the Red Cross and Unicef.  It is in these times that people’s hearts open up and everyone is so giving.  However, there are those in the world who will take advantage of that fact.  Please always ensure that whoever you are donating to, no matter that amount, that your donation is going where you want it to go.  Also remember that if you do not have the means to donate monetarily that there are other ways to give.  Donate blood and time if you truly want a way to give.  Prayers to those sleeping in the streets and facing having to rebuild their entires lives from the ground up (literally).


Haiti Telethon Details – And They Include Rob

With all the devistation surrounding those suffering in Haiti there’s one thing Hollywood is really good at and that is coming together for a good cause.  This Friday there will be a telethon held in which performers from all over will do their all to inspire us to open our hearts and our wallets to help those in need.

Marc Malkin from E! reports the following:

Rob - Haiti Telethon

 

Robert Pattinson is on board.

I just got word that the Twilight star has signed on for Friday’s Hope for Haiti telethon. As of right now, it looks like Rob will be the sole presenter in London, with performances by Jay-Z and Bono.

Stateside performers—some announced and others not—will include:

Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Shakira and Bruce Springsteen, who are among those performing live during the two-hour benefit, which will air on all the major television networks (including our very own E!).

Other mega-celebs who will present and/or help in the phone banks are Jennifer Aniston, Jake Gyllenhaal, Brad Pitt, Anna Kendrick, Zac Efron, Bradley Cooper, Renée Zellweger, Chris Pine, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Colin Farrell, Gabby Sidibe and Emily Blunt, among many others.

No word yet on Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, but as I was the first to tell you, Hollywood’s hottest vampire movie trio is a very wanted group for the telethon because of the impact they would have with young people.

Also on organizers’ wish list are—no surprise—Oprah Winfrey and Angelina Jolie.

George Clooney is set to host from Los Angeles, with Wyclef John in New York City and CNN newsman Anderson Cooper in Haiti.

Our source says celeb participation and other plans keep changing. “With everything moving so quickly,” the source said, “changes are happening every minute.”

As soon as we hear of changes or updates, we’ll post them here!

I also want to point out that our bloggy friends from ThinkingofRob have been on top of this from the very beginning and have done an amazing job of keeping everything and everybody updated as quickly as possible.  They’re a.m.a.z.i.n.g.

Meet the luckiest girl in the Twi-verse- the owner of Bella’s truck
Posted by Admin- Twilight Moonlighter • No Comments »

Meet Sterling, the luckiest girl in the Twi-universe. Her dad drove her to all the filming locations of Twilight and to Forks, WA for the DVD release. And her parents bought her Bella’s truck.

But before you get too jealous of this teen, read on. You’ll fall in love with her and her plight to help charities.

Sterling started a website called Eternal Tomorrows, which she hopes will ultimately become the name of her own charity. Her plea to those interested in renting the truck:

Now here is where it gets really cool (WARNING: bystanders, be prepared to plug ears as a result of fan screams)! For a small donation to one of my select charities, that all help children, you can have this truck come to your party or event, you can sit in it, and you can take pictures with it. On this website you will find information about me, my truck, and other Twilight fans. I encourage you to explore this website further, meet new people, learn new things, and spread the word. Visit as often as you like. And remember, it’s all for a good cause.

Sterling’s greatest achievement to date was her involvement in a charity event designed to benefit Dosomething.org. With Ashley Greene and Christian Serratos in attendance, Sterling was wrapped up in the Hollywood gala, her truck on display, and the red carpet beckoning. Ashley and Christian even autographed her truck.

Another cute pic of Rob and Sharon at amFAR last night, thanks to CoverAwards.



I can't title this post about Robert because it involves me spewing the F-bomb. H.O.T.

Lainey’s croney, Laura, sat across from Rob at the amFAR benefit and again, this morning, I’m swooning:

I look up to see him walking in, in his fitted tux, no tie, a couple of buttons on his shirt undone, looking absolutely delicious. He’s walking like he’s on a runway, a far cry from his usual “please don’t look at me” gait with slumped shoulders and a ducked head.

He took a seat at a table opposite us, giving me a close and unrestricted view of him and, to quote Lainey, sending my loins into quiveration mode.
http://www.laineygossip.com/pics/pattinson%20amfar%2022may09%2008.jpg

So did I shamelessly ogle him for the next two hours? You bet your sweet ass I did!

The boy is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. He chain smokes like crazy, and while I generally find that a disgusting habit, he looks ridiculously sexy doing it. In fact, he looked picture perfect every single time I glanced over at him. He was chatting animatedly with his manager and his agent, laughing and smiling, looking like a guy who was loving his life.
http://www.laineygossip.com/pics/pattinson%20amfar%2022may09%2009.jpg

At one point I was jolted out of my lust-induced haze by Lainey who asked me if I was going to, and I quote, “man up and bring it?” I could only reply to her smug little challenge with a death glare because honestly, short of flashing him my boob, what was I supposed to do?

Eventually, Emile Hirsch walked in with his girlfriend and another good looking girl. They greeted Rob and he – get this – looked shy and stared down alternately at the table or at his management team. It was pretty cute actually.
http://www.laineygossip.com/pics/pattinson%20amfar%2022may09%2003.jpg

What I didn’t find cute was the way Emile greeted Rob – it was a condescending “heyyyyy buddyyyyyyy” and then he proceeded to poach one of Rob’s smokes. It was interesting to observe the difference between these two young actors.

Emile walked in muttering something about kicking someone’s ass and then loudly gave his pointed opinions on various topics. Rob conversed with him but wasn’t nearly as biting or cocky. I’m not saying he doesn’t have an edge – I overheard him make some sarcastic remarks and he does love dropping the F-bomb (with that British accent – HOT!) , but overall, he comes across as a much nicer guy.
