Twilight characters immortalised – in plastic – as Barbie dolls

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Twilight characters Edward and Bella will forever be immortalised… in plastic!

The hit ?lm – which struck the hearts of millions worldwide, with a Romeo & Juliet-style romance between mortal Bella Swan and vampire Edward Cullen – will now be immortalised not by a vampire’s bite, but by Barbie dolls.

The Twilight Barbies pay tribute to one of America’s favourite on-screen couples, played by heart-throb Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Edward’s strong jawline and vampire-glow and Bella’s long brunette hair and innocent face showcase the pivotal Forever 17 scene from the ?lm.

The Twilight Barbies are a must-have for Twilight ?lm fans and Barbie collectors alike.

In anticipation for the release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon, the dolls will be available from November 1, 2009 for a suggested retail price of $24.95 each through Walmart, Walmart.com, Barbie Collector Dealers, Barbie Collector Catalog and www.barbiecollector.com

Actress Megan Fox has had therapy to help her get over sex demons she’s had since she was young

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Transformers star Megan Fox has had therapy to help her get over the sex demons that have tormented her since she was young.

Megan, 23, blames her insecurities and attitude to sex on her religious upbringing.

She told British newspaper the Daily Star Sunday: “I was raised Pentecostal, which is one of the most extreme denominations of Christianity that exists. Everything is evil and wrong and will send you to hell.”

She added: “So I had lots of talks about how sex was evil, sex was bad.”

Megan, who recently posed as a nun to promote her film How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, openly rebelled as she questioned the beliefs she was taught at her religious school in Florida.

She said: “I fought against everything I was ever taught or told and that just created more of a monster when I was a teenager.”

She added: “I don’t ever feel sexy in small clothes. I always feel really insecure. I don’t like wearing make-up.”

Her role in the new film Jennifer’s Body, which hits UK cinemas on November 6, has helped to increase her confidence.

In the movie Megan plays a man-eating teenager who is possessed by a sex-mad spirit.

She said: “I get to exercise my demons through her. She has really deep, unfriendly insecurities which I can relate to.”

‘There will not be five Twilight films’, says film rep

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Reports that there will be five Twilight movies are “not accurate”, according to a rep for the film saga.

The movies are based on the four novels by author Stephenie Meyer. However, new actor Boo Boo Stewart recently claimed that there would be five movies in the saga.

A rep for Summit Entertainment said: “We appreciate our young actor’s enthusiasm for the franchise and his role, but his comments about the number of films were unfortunately uninformed and not accurate.

“However, the fans should rest assured the we’re working with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen.”

The first movie, Twilight, shot actors Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart to international fame and the second film, New Moon, will be released at the end of the year.
