Twilight hunk Kellan Lutz has shown his softer side in a new advert for PETA’s animal adoption campaign.

The movie vampire can be seen cuddling up to rescue dog Kola, who he found in an animal shelter, for the animal charity’s current Adopt, Don’t Buy campaign.

He said: “There are countless numbers of animals out there. It’s our job to take them under our wing.”

Recalling his first meeting with Kola, who he calls his “best friend”, he added: “I touched her toe and said, ‘Hey, what’s your name?’

“She spoke to me. From that day on, I loved her.”

According to PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), about eight million unwanted dogs and cats enter shelters every year.

Sadly, half of them have to be put down because there is not enough space to house them.

Lutz, who has another rescue dog called Kevin, said: “It’s sad, knowing that they get [put down].”

He added: “For the fans of Twilight out there who have so much love, give that love to a pet if you don’t have one.”

The singer who is currently engaged in what might be the biggest media blaze of her life has finally agreed to meet with her soon to be former husband Ashley Cole. This is what a source said about Cheryl Cole’s decision: “Ashley has been texting her nonstop and Cheryl has tentatively agreed to see him. Cheryl’s in two minds but believes they should meet like adults to discuss what’s happened.” If Cheryl Cole happens to be in the right mind of those two, the only things they will discuss will be the terms of the divorce. But then again, Ashley Cole must have some sort of ace up his sleeve.

Oscar hopeful Anna Kendrick is making the glitzy awards ceremony a family affair – so she can introduce her mother to George Clooney.

Instead of having a hot date on her arm, the Up In The Air star will be walking the red carpet with her mum and brother.

“I’m flying them out. I’m so excited,” she said. “My Mom wants to meet George Clooney.”

Kendrick, 24, is nominated in the Best Supporting Actress category at this year’s Academy Awards.

But she confessed she was too nervous to watch the Oscar nominations announcement.

“I went for a run at five in the morning,” she said. “I just waited for my roommate to text me.

“And then it was actually really nice because I was sort of alone in the dark. I kind of wanted to shout, but I didn’t want to wake everyone up at 5.30 in the morning.”

Bridget Jones could be heading for US TV.

American network NBC is working on a weekly TV version of the romantic comedy character – made famous by Renee Zellweger.

The series would be part of a new agreement between NBC and British movie company Working Title, according to reports.

American TV networks are increasingly keen on making their own versions of British imports, following the success of the remake of The Office.
