I Belong to You (New Moon Remix) [New Moon]
When these pillars get pulled down,
It will be you who wears the crown,
And I’ll owe everything to youHow much pain has cracked your soul?
How much love would make you whole?
You’re my guiding lightning strikeI can’t find the words to say,
But they’re overdue,
I’ve travelled half the world to say,
I belong to youThen she attacks me like a Leo,
When my heart is split like Rio,
But, I assure you my debts are realI can’t find the words to say,
When I’m confused,
I’ve travelled half the world to say,
You are my mu-(Ah! Réponds à ma tendresse,

Jodelle Ferland, 100 Monkeys and a Raccoon
June 22nd, 2010
The only real Twilight news today is that over 600 Twihards are already camped outside for Thursday’s premiere. Thursday. It’s Tuesday, people. Anyway, apparently, Summit is taking care of the fans and there will be cast appearances and there have already been some musical performances of songs from the soundtrack.
Twilight Examiner has a nice, long interview with Jodelle Ferland (Bree). Read the whole thing here. She was already a Twilight fan:
“I found out that I got the part, then found out a little while later that there might be a book on Bree. I was really excited, but I had no idea that I would even get to read it! When I found out I got to read it, I couldn’t believe how lucky I was! I was like, I get a sneak peek before anyone else! I’m so happy that it’s coming out, I just can’t wait.”
Jackson Rathbone’s band, 100 Monkeys, has announced their summer touring schedule. They also just released a new single called “Kolpix” which is available on their website.

Xavier Samuel might be easy on the eyes, but I’m not sure he’s the brightest bulb… while he was filming Eclipse in Vancouver, he and co-star Bryce Dallas Howard were taking a nature walk and encountered a raccoon. He decided that getting his picture taken with the raccoon was a good idea and the raccoon promptly bit his finger. His excuse is that they don’t have raccoons in his native Australia. But still…
Here’s a shot of Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart continuing their Eclipse press tour in Sweden:
I much prefer Kellan Lutz with dark hair. What about you?
Don’t forget to watch Jimmy Kimmel tomorrow night at 10pm ET for his Eclipse special. The Holy Trinity will be on, plus Twilight spoofs from The Jersey Shore cast.
