E Online’s Answer Bitch says YES, YES, YES, YES YES!

“I can guarantee, 200 percent, that the page is fake. In fact, I can guarantee that every single Rob Pattinson profile is also a fake.

How? Well…

…because I called Pattinson’s manager today, and the person who picked up the phone told me that the actor—who, to be fair, possesses many other impressive communication tools, including hair that can pick up radio waves from Neptune—is not on Facebook. At all.”

When last we saw “Twilight” vampire Laurent, he had aided the Cullens, turned his back on his fellow nomads and vanished into the woods of Forks.

Now, with a new director and a much-anticipated sequel just weeks away from filming, Edi Gathegi is eager to channel his character’s evil side — and find true love in the process.

“It was a tiny little independent film — did moderately well in the box office,” Gathegi laughed when he stopped by the MTV News studios for an exclusive interview to discuss “New Moon” and his latest movie, “My Bloody Valentine 3-D.” Asked how his life has changed in the seven weeks since the vampire flick’s record-breaking opening weekend, he grinned and said: “I’ve gotten a lot of MySpace requests.”

The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer

Twilight is the first novel in a series of four vampire based fantasy slash romance novels by author Stephenie Meyer. The series of novels follow the adventures of Bella Swan, a teenage girl who moves to a small rainy town called Forks in Washington, once there her life is turned upside down when she falls in love with Edward Cullen, who happens to be a vampire.

The series consists of four novels:

Twilight -

Bella Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona, to Forks, Washington, to allow her mother, Renée, to travel with her new husband, Phil, a minor league baseball player. After moving to Forks, Bella finds herself involuntarily drawn to a mysterious, handsome boy, Edward Cullen, who turns out to be a vampire who drinks animal blood as opposed to human blood. They fall passionately in love, and must fight off a vampire from another coven who is drawn to drink Bella’s blood. Bella escapes to Phoenix, Arizona, where she is tricked into confronting James, the sadistic vampire who wishes to kill her. She is mortally wounded, but Edward rescues her, and they return to Forks.

New Moon -

Edward and his family leave Forks because of his belief that he is constantly endangering Bella’s life. Bella falls into a deep depression, until she develops a strong friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Jacob and the other wolves in his tribe must protect her from Victoria, an evil vampire who intends to avenge the death of James, her mate, by killing Bella. A misunderstanding occurs, and Edward is led to believe that Bella is dead. Edward decides to commit suicide in Volterra, Italy, but he is stopped by Bella and Alice, Edward’s sister. They meet with the Volturi, a powerful coven of vampires, and are released on the condition that Bella be turned into a vampire in the near future. Bella and Edward are reunited, and the Cullens return to Forks.

Eclipse -

The vampire Victoria (James’s mate from Twilight) has created an army of “newborn” vampires to battle the Cullen family and kill Bella. Meanwhile, Bella is forced to choose between her relationship with Edward and her friendship with Jacob. Edward’s family of vampires and Jacob’s pack of werewolves join forces to successfully destroy Victoria and her army of vampires. In the end, Bella chooses Edward’s love over Jacob’s and agrees to marry him.

Breaking Dawn -
Bella and Edward get married, but their honeymoon is cut short by Bella’s realization that she has become pregnant. Bella’s pregnancy progresses extremely quickly and makes her very weak. She nearly dies while giving birth to her and Edward’s half-vampire-half-human daughter, Renesmee, but Edward injects Bella with his venom to save her life by turning her into a vampire. A vampire from another coven sees Renesmee and mistakes her for an “immortal child”, the existence of which violates vampire rules, and informs the Volturi. The Cullens gather vampire witnesses who can verify that the child is not one of the immortal children. The Cullens and their witnesses convince the Volturi that Renesmee is not a danger to vampires or their secret, and they are left in peace.

The series is mainly told from Bella’s perspective.

The Twilight series is popular among teens and young adults, but is also enjoyed by many older adults and has sold millions of copies worldwide.
