Mario Lopez Joined the Wolfpack!
Here is the article, accompanying the picture...
"Extra" superimposed the shirtless host into a "New Moon" promo shot.
Lopez fits right in with Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier.
In a sit-down interview with "Extra," Pelletier -- who is nicknamed "Slater Jr." -- joked to Lopez that, "when we were casting this thing I thought I was gonna lose my role out to you."
Added Meraz, "You're the missing wolf pack member!"
Taylor Lautner says it's "definitely a possibility" that Lopez could join the pack. Stewart was more sure. "You totally could be," she said.
"We'll get you in there," Spencer promised.
Watch "Extra" tonight for more on Lopez's transformation!
Bronson's been nicknamed Slater Jr.! It's the dimples.

Set your DVRs and TIVOs...
Don't forget to watch Bronson and Kellan on Much on Demand on Much Music! I don't have MM, but I know the interviews will be up eventually. I'm sure the interview will be great to watch as Bronson and Kellan are both funny guys on their own.Kellan will be appearing at the West Edmonton Mall on Saturday the 14th with Chaske and Christian. It was originally Kellan and Ashley, then Chaske and Alex replaced Ashley. Alex was then replaced by Christian. Don't know what happen!
Of course, can't forget Stephenie Meyer on Oprah!
So....7 days until New Moon! Who's excited?

Comingsoon.net w/ Alex&Kiowa
LOL Too much Alex&Kiowa, so little time! JK...This levels out all my Bronson in NZ blogs.
Kiowa had a very personal path to this role. "Well, I was going to church as usual with Stephenie Meyer, the writer, and she kinda saw me and thought that I'd be a good character for the native roles. I was pretty stoked that she would see me as one of her characters. She told me about the open casting call in Phoenix and I went to an acting coach… I went into the audition and knocked it out!" Pretty amazing for his first role!
Alex admitted to not really being aware of the first movie and not realizing how big it was because he was working in Canada at the time. When he heard that there was a Native American component to the series, he decided he would not let the second film go by without trying to get a part. He auditioned for the role of Sam Uley. "It was really close. We were short-listed, but I just didn't feel right about it. I was trying to be what the books explained. I was trying to be taller, bigger, a deeper voice."
He was crushed when he learned that he did not get the role of Sam, saying that he thought he didn't get any role. But his manager was quick to point out that he would play the hot-headed, short-tempered Paul. "I was happy when I did research about who Paul was, because I kinda like the more bad boys, guys with attitudes." Later, when he met Chaske Spencer (Sam Uley) he realized immediately that he was perfect for the role of the Wolf Pack leader.

HoustonPress's interview w/ Alex & Kiowa
Yesterday, Alex and Kiowa were in Houston, TX to appear at the Hot Topic New Moon tour. HoustonPress caught up with them.
That's what happened to Kiowa Gordon, who plays Embry in the film. Of course, being hot helps, too. "I was actually living in Mesa [Arizona] a couple of months before the audition," says Gordon. "I threw a party, and the cops came and busted it. And I got in trouble...And my mom was like, 'You gotta come home and live with me,' so I went to Cave Creek, and that's what really started it. Because then Stephenie Meyer moved in to our church around the same time."
Gordon is in Houston today with Alex Meraz, who plays werewolf Paul in the film. They're on a tour to promote New Moon that started in LA with an appearance with all the cast members, vampires and werewolves alike. The two actors continued to Denver, are stopping here with an event tonight at the Galleria, and then they're heading for Miami.
Buff, Sexy Werewolves Descend On The Galleria, And We Talk To Them
How do you get yourself cast in the blockbuster Twilight series? Throw a rager, get in trouble with Dad, and move in with Mom. Maybe you'll end up going to church with Stephenie Meyer; she'll suggest you audition to play a werewolf in the series's second installment New Moon, and you'll get the part.That's what happened to Kiowa Gordon, who plays Embry in the film. Of course, being hot helps, too. "I was actually living in Mesa [Arizona] a couple of months before the audition," says Gordon. "I threw a party, and the cops came and busted it. And I got in trouble...And my mom was like, 'You gotta come home and live with me,' so I went to Cave Creek, and that's what really started it.

They're on a tour to promote New Moon that started in LA with an appearance with all the cast members, vampires and werewolves alike. The two actors continued to Denver, are stopping here with an event tonight at the Galleria, and then they're heading for Miami.
"Denver I gotta say is the most intense fans we've ever seen," says Meraz. "It was just us, and like 700 fans, all at once just shouting. I personally didn't expect that." It's safe to say there will be a similar scene tonight at the Galleria. At last year's event, fans camped out to meet the stars who appeared here -- Taylor Lautner, who plays Bella's werewolf best friend Jacob, and two of Twilight's evil vampires.
Both actors seem excited by all the attention, and a little nervous. "They're very respectful, when you get a fan by themselves," says Meraz, "but get them all together and it's like a mob."
Meraz recently appeared in People magazine -- with his shirt off, of course. After getting the role of Paul, who's a bit of a grumpy werewolf and attacks Bella when he discovers she knows the pack's secret, he says, "I just figured I should look like a fighter. Not overly Greek-god buff, but, like, scrappy. Just ripped and lean, kind of Bruce Lee-like."
For their roles, Gordon, Meraz and the other actors playing werewolves buffed up in an intense physical regimen they called "wolf camp."
"We got a trainer, we worked out really hard. We were pushing each other hard," says Gordon, "eating tons of protein, and like six meals a day. It was good, because we all bonded. I gained muscle I didn't even know I had."
Fans are probably already lining up at the Galleria to meet Gordon and Meraz. But if you do make it to the front for an autograph, we have one piece of advice for you: Don't call them "Native American." Call them "First Nations People." Trust us on this.

Denver's 9News with Alex & Kiowa
For full article from 9News, Click here.
'New Moon' actors say they are real life wolf pack
"It's weird. On my MySpace I have people from Brazil, from France, from Italy, lots of places it's crazy," Gordon said.
But Gordon and Meraz say they can understand the popularity of the movie which has many universal themes.
"I think that's what fans across the world have enjoyed about it is that it's a love story done in this fantasy realm and why people connect to it is because there's so much that they can relate to. Everyone knows what it feels like to be dumped or to try to befriend somebody or defend somebody or to get revenge and these books, the films, they have it all," Meraz said.
"New Moon" hits theaters Friday, Nov. 20. It is expected to surpass the $384 million that Twilight sank its teeth into in theatres worldwide last year.

FearNet's Exclusive with Alex
I am now just noticing Chaske's arm muscles!....WOW...*Stay w/ the BroLex, stay w/ the BroLex...*Source:Fearnet.com
Since The Twilight Saga: New Moon is all about the rise of the werewolf – in the form of its bare-chested, strapping young Quileuete Indian protectors – we seized the chance to speak with the most volatile member of the Wolf Pack. As Paul, newcomer Alex Meraz adds a hot-blooded physicality that leads to one of New Moon's best moments – a surprise showdown in which Bella (Kristen Stewart) finds herself caught between two raging wolves. Find out more about Meraz, the slap heard ‘round the Twi-verse, and how the Native American actor thinks the Twilight
films serve the Native American community.
You stand out among the Wolf Pack because of your scene with Bella – the slap heard ‘round the world, so to speak. Tell me how that scene went down.
Alex Meraz: It was exciting. Even just in the casting of it, I just really liked Paul. What happened with the casting process is, we sent in our information and through that they were going to break it down. I sent it in and started reading New Moon while I was waiting and I really liked Paul because of that scene, and I really like bad boys and he's kind of the bad boy of the Wolf Pack. I got the chance to audition and I got that role, saw the script and was blown away by it. I knew it was the first transformation you were going to see in the movie, and it's definitely a scene that stands out. There was pressure to make sure it looked good, but I knew I was in good hands – Chris Weitz is just an amazing director, and Phil Tippett who did the special effects was going to make me look awesome. So it was fun.
What scene did you perform in your audition?
They gave us stuff from the book that wasn't even in the script – there's a kitchen scene at Emily's when we figure out that it's Victoria killing people on the reservation, and that's when we set up a game plan. It was that scene.
You and Kristen have a very adversarial encounter in the slap scene. Do you think that Paul really wants to kill her in that moment?
Yes, definitely! He's compulsive, you know. He kind of goes with the flow, but he's volatile, but not in a "I like to hurt people" way; he's very proud. He has a thick sense of pride, and he really wants to protect the reservation and she's bringing nothing but trouble. So in that scene, I'm thinking in my head, "Do something to make me change, so I can kill you." Just do something, because I'm itching to kill her. She's a nuisance, a problem. That was that way I did it in the scene, and of course she hits me, and that's enough to change me.
Did you and Kristen rehearse that a lot beforehand?
Not at all. We did one rehearsal the day of, said our lines, and we were good! The next day, we shot it and experimented – one time I tried grabbing her throat, which she was not fond of – and we played around with it, the director gave us good stuff to do, and it was what it was.
Did Kristen really hit you in the face?
She started finding a home for that fist on my face. It was getting really close.
There's a nice little moment between you and Kristen again after the fight, when the Wolf Pack has reconvened at Emily's house and you turn to her and say "Sorry," with a bit of a smile.
I improvised that. I asked if I could do something because I felt that something was missing there. A little humor should be added. Luckily, Chris was keen enough to see it from that perspective, and he thought it was great. I'm glad it made it in because it adds another level to my character – not just volatile, but playful.
What can we expect to see from Paul in Eclipse?
There are some cool fight scenes with the Wolf Pack, some CG stuff but I'm looking forward to the fight with Kellan's character, Emmett. There's a little encounter.
Have you read Breaking Dawn?
I have.
How do you feel about the idea of imprinting?
It's crazy! [Laughs] It's a little creepy, but it's interesting. It's very different from the typical werewolf-vampire stories. I think it works; it's what Stephenie Meyer created.
As a Native American actor, how much of a responsibility do you feel to represent indigenous culture respectfully in the Twilight films?
It's about breaking down barriers. Even amongst the native community, there are thousands of tribes; you can't include the Brazilian tribes because they're not Native American. There are so many tribes in Central America, Mexico, Canada… I was just excited that I got an opportunity as a Native Mexican, because my tribe is the Purepecha tribe and there's so much cultural identity there that still exists. It's a different kind of Native American than Hollywood likes to portray. The person on horseback with feathers – not all natives look like that. Clearly, we see that with the Quileute tribe. I was glad that they let real natives portray that, a different mythology.
Do you think the Twilight Saga really serves the Quileute culture?
It serves them in that it takes things from the mythology and their creation story and combines it with fantasy. But it's not completely accurate. Part of their creation story is that they came from wolves, but they can't change back. That's one of the things that the Quileute are protesting. But I think it serves them because it's giving them the spotlight. It informs people of the tribe. Now tons of people are coming to La Push to see people from the Quileute tribe. I think that's great. I've talked to the other Wolf Pack members and we've discussed that we'd like to go to the actual reservation and speak with some of the council members and pay homage. That's kind of the Native way, anyways. You can't just take something, you have to give back as well. So that's something we plan on doing at some point.

BBC News:Fans sink fangs into Twilight
BBCNews has a review up from Eternal Twilight 2. Below is just some of the article. Click on the link for two videos, one in which Chaske and Tyson speak!
Ahead of the baseball party, the opening ceremony takes place in the main hall.
Organiser Jason Joiner, of Massive Events, makes a plea for the audience not to "squeal" as the guests arrive. Instead there are screams and whoops.
Edi Gathegi is first up on stage. "You beautiful UK people!" He has them eating out of his hand in seconds.
Next it's Tyson Houseman, a newcomer to the Twilight family and at his first UK convention.
"I have always wanted to run onto a stage and yell 'Hello England!' really loud," he says.
"You're so cute!" calls a woman's voice in the audience.
"Don't try to jump on me, I'm really sick right now," says Houseman, who is genuinely nursing a cold.

J-14 Chats w/ Alex
I don't know where J-14 found this, but this is a nice New Moon promo! Not the typical wolfpack-brooding picture!J-14 exclusive interview with Alex Meraz about Taylor Lautner Vs. Himself:
J-14: Your background is in martial arts, just like Taylor Lautner -- how do your skills compare?
Alex Meraz: I'm better. (Laughs) No, you know Taylor, you've gotta look at the difference. Taylor is 17, I'm 24. I've been doing it a lot longer. And as of recently, I've really become more of an actor now. This is what I'm heavily relying on in terms of survival and what I'm really into now. But a couple of months ago, I was still training and considering doing mixed martial arts like cage fighting. So I'm without a doubt -- without trying to be an ego maniac -- better!
J-14: So you guys trained in different forms of martial arts?
Alex: Yeah, he did more for events -- more of the flashy kind of things. I did it more for efficiency -- to fight.
J-14: But you can both stand there and do back flips?
Alex: Yeah, we can both do back flips.

Seventeen Magazine chats with Chaske
17: What was it like working with Taylor? CS: Taylor is a lovable man! He is so cool! First, he is raised right. He is a good kid. He's got his head on his shoulders and he's fun. He can be an adult when it comes time to work, but he is still 17 so he can be a kid as well. He gets really bored easily so between takes he will do flips and stuff. And he can do break-dancing and karate. The production people had to tell him to chill a few times because it got a little rowdy.
17: When you weren't working out, what did you guys do on set?
CS: We goofed around a lot. It's really fun because you get to hang out with these guys that you get along with. It was like a party. We would all pile into my trailer and watch a movie sometimes if it was taking a while to get to set or if they were busy filming something else. On off time, we would go to restaurants and clubs together. They were like my brothers.
17: On set, is it really vampires v. werewolves? Are there cliques?
CS: No! It's such a huge cast that everyone gets along but we don't get to see everybody. I've seen Rob on New Moon like twice, just in the makeup trailer, and then we go off to film our scenes. If we're filming, the vampires are off, and when they are filming, we are at the gym. So it's not a clique, it wasn't meant to happen, that's just the way it is. Everyone gets along, though.

If you guys were wondering, Alex's appearance on The Rachael Ray show will be shown on Nov. 11. Check local listings! Or Youtube :)

One on One with Tyson Houseman
Saywhatnews.com interviewed Tyson. Can't wait to see how he portrays Quil in that cheesy, seductive way...Also he confirms he doesn't have a Myspace or a Facebook.SayWhatNews: When did you realize you wanted to be an actor?
Tyson: I never really came to a realization that this was something I wanted to pursue. It just sort of happened. New Moon was the first audition that I had ever been to in my life. It was actually an open casting call, and I found out about it from a friend. I thought that it would be a good experience to have, and I never once expected that I would get it. But I did the open casting call, and I got a callback the next week. When they sent me the lines I had to learn for the callback, the casting director told me that there were two different scenes, one really long one and another really short one. He told me I only had to do the short one and they wouldn’t have time to do the long one and it wouldn’t even be in the film. But I learned the long scene anyways and when I did the callback I did the short scene and afterwards I asked if I could do the long one too, and they said yes. A week later I got a call saying I had gotten the part.
I think Tyson being prepared and asking to do the longer scene at the callback is what got him the part. Late congrats Tyson!

Pink Paws at NZ's Armageddon Expo
Jess from New Zealand was able to attend Auckland’s Armageddon Expo last weekend where Bronson came as a guest. He came to represent the cast of New Moon all by himself. He represented well! Here is her account with meeting Bronson and basically a whole review of the Expo!
OMG what can I say New Zealand never gets any Twilight Saga cast members here, that was until “MrsCedward” (YAAY thankyou so much) told me a “wolf” was coming to Auckland’s Armageddon Expo this month I HAD TO GO!!!! For about a month and a half I begged my parents to let me go, since Armageddon was in Auckland, and I live in Palmerston North which is pretty much a 7-9 hour drive away, the answer was always “NO” ): So being a stubborn person I persevered and managed to convince my dad to take my friend and I up to Auckland to see Bronson (:
When we got to the ASB Arena it was like 8:45am and the doors didn’t open till 9am so it was PACKED!!!! My friend and I got some “weird” looks from people who were obviously anti-twilight fans, because we were wearing twilight tops, but we couldn’t care . So when the doors opened I pretty much felt so out of place because it was a lot of sci-fi stuff, but then I found all these stalls that were selling heaps of different Twilight/New Moon merch. We went to the Hoytz Cinema stall where they were playing the New Moon trailer, so Sarah and I just stood there watching the whole thing, while the three guys manning the stall pretty much laughed at us. At 11:20am we headed over to where they were having the celebrity photos, at that point Jason Mormor (from Stargate posb?) was having his photos taken. Bronson wasn’t due until 12:10pm but there was already a line forming. We met three girls and a guy that had travelled from Marton (just before Palmy) to Auckland to meet Bronson.
At about 12:05pm I was fully excited to meet Bronson, AND then he arrives, HOTNESS AND ALL!!!!!! Wearing his ray bans, a t-shirts with New Zealand on it (cuuuuuute!), epic as jeans, and mint white shoes, with a pounamu around his neck. He was so ADORABLE! He was like hugging everyone and laughing! So when it was our turn, I got out pink paws out and held them up while Bronson PUT HIS ARMS AROUND US!!! (Yuuuussss) and he goes “can’t forget the paws” while laughing. After the photo he gave us both a hug and we were pretty much shaking with excitement after, so I continued to stand on the side taking photos for half an hour along with 20 other girls, OMG at points he would look at all the cameras on the side too! My friend had to literally drag me away because I couldn’t leave on my own free will haaahah we also had to go because we had to get a good seat for his question and answer panel, which was at 1:10pm plus I also had to text my dad to come and video the whole of the panel. At 1:05pm they started playing the Twilight soundtrack to get the atmosphere going, THEN BRONSON WALKS IN (*sighhhhh), he is then introduced onto stage and literally every single camera went off for about 5 minutes non-stop.
Throughout the panel Bronson was so down to earth and answered every question honestly . We learnt that he got kicked out of high school for unknown reasons (which seemed to amuse him because he went off into a thought), his hidden talent which is so CUTE! He does this thing with his mouth where he gets a invisible piece of string and lifts one side of his mouth up at a time. Two people (one was a guy lol) asked him to show the audience his abs (; but he said “were gonna have to watch the movie to see them”. We also learnt that out of all of the countries he has visited New Zealand is his FAVOURITE!!! And that he is definitely coming back for a holiday here, he also said New Zealand looks like Vancouver (*hint hint Summit, film Breaking Dawn in NZ). Someone then asked him what his worst sexual experience was, haha I think he got a bit flustered there, he said he would tell us but there were “little people/ears” there.
At one point Bronson came into the audience for about 40 minutes to ask questions, everyone kept asking him for hugs. Autographs and photos and he was too happy to oblige so he did it all. One kid gave him chocolate and he was like “you guys like giving me chocolate don’t you” which he then ate later on stage. A few times Bronson was literally right in front of me, that if wanted to I could’ve grabbed his hand/arm and pulled and he would be right next to me (it was AMAZINGGG! I think I took a pic of his arm) I have the whole panel recorded so I’m trying to get that online so look out for it (: Bronson is seriously such a down to earth guy, he’s so chilled and isn’t fazed out by his fame, he also LOVES and respects his fans, which I find so adorable.
At 3pm I went and picked up my photo with Bronson and went to line up to get an autograph, hi line was literally round the corner from where he was. I waited about 45 minutes for an autograph. When we finally got to him he looked so exhausted and tired (poor baby), he asked what team we were on which we replied with “Edward” then Sarah went “ohh and Jasper” Haah I forgot to go “Jared of course!” because I am now. He wrote (right handed btw) on a photo of the wolf pack “To Jess & Sarah From “Jared” his signature and a paw print along with xoxo” Cuuuuuute! We thanked him in which he replied with “no problem” and a dazzling smile!! I almost jumped over the table because of his hot ass accent!! All in all I had the best day EVER, all thanks to Bronson Pelletier! It was seriously worthwhile travelling all that way to meet him. If you EVER get the opportunity to meet Bronson Pelletier TAKE IT UP!!! You will NOT be disappointed, he loves his fans and is happy to give hugs, autographs, photos and even accepts the gifts his fans give him. He has a genuine personality and is so down to earth. It was a privilege to meet him and I hope he enjoyed his time in New Zealand and comes back soon. Thanks Bronson for giving me the best experience a twilight fan could ask for. If Bronson ever reads this on behalf of New Zealand we thank you Bronson for taking your time to come to New Zealand for Armageddon, we hope you had loads of fun and can’t wait to see you back here, Happy 23rd birthday for the 31st of December from all the Twilight fans that were at Armageddon and all the others throughout New Zealand.
-Jess J
I'm glad Bronson had a fun time in New Zealand and he represented the Twilight cast well. He was able to convert Jess into a Wolf Girl w/out much effort. Basically being cheerful! LOL. Can't wait to meet him at TwiTour!

We went to the Hoytz Cinema stall where they were playing the New Moon trailer, so Sarah and I just stood there watching the whole thing, while the three guys manning the stall pretty much laughed at us. At 11:20am we headed over to where they were having the celebrity photos, at that point Jason Mormor (from Stargate posb?) was having his photos taken. Bronson wasn’t due until 12:10pm but there was already a line forming. We met three girls and a guy that had travelled from Marton (just before Palmy) to Auckland to meet Bronson.
At about 12:05pm I was fully excited to meet Bronson, AND then he arrives, HOTNESS AND ALL!!!!!! Wearing his ray bans, a t-shirts with New Zealand on it (cuuuuuute!), epic as jeans, and mint white shoes, with a pounamu around his neck. He was so ADORABLE! He was like hugging everyone and laughing! So when it was our turn, I got out pink paws out and held them up while Bronson PUT HIS ARMS AROUND US!!! (Yuuuussss) and he goes “can’t forget the paws” while laughing. After the photo he gave us both a hug and we were pretty much shaking with excitement after, so I continued to stand on the side taking photos for half an hour along with 20 other girls, OMG at points he would look at all the cameras on the side too! My friend had to literally drag me away because I couldn’t leave on my own free will haaahah we also had to go because we had to get a good seat for his question and answer panel, which was at 1:10pm plus I also had to text my dad to come and video the whole of the panel. At 1:05pm they started playing the Twilight soundtrack to get the atmosphere going, THEN BRONSON WALKS IN (*sighhhhh), he is then introduced onto stage and literally every single camera went off for about 5 minutes non-stop.
Throughout the panel Bronson was so down to earth and answered every question honestly . We learnt that he got kicked out of high school for unknown reasons (which seemed to amuse him because he went off into a thought), his hidden talent which is so CUTE! He does this thing with his mouth where he gets a invisible piece of string and lifts one side of his mouth up at a time. Two people (one was a guy lol) asked him to show the audience his abs (; but he said “were gonna have to watch the movie to see them”. We also learnt that out of all of the countries he has visited New Zealand is his FAVOURITE!!! And that he is definitely coming back for a holiday here, he also said New Zealand looks like Vancouver (*hint hint Summit, film Breaking Dawn in NZ). Someone then asked him what his worst sexual experience was, haha I think he got a bit flustered there, he said he would tell us but there were “little people/ears” there.
At one point Bronson came into the audience for about 40 minutes to ask questions, everyone kept asking him for hugs. Autographs and photos and he was too happy to oblige so he did it all. One kid gave him chocolate and he was like “you guys like giving me chocolate don’t you” which he then ate later on stage. A few times Bronson was literally right in front of me, that if wanted to I could’ve grabbed his hand/arm and pulled and he would be right next to me (it was AMAZINGGG! I think I took a pic of his arm) I have the whole panel recorded so I’m trying to get that online so look out for it (: Bronson is seriously such a down to earth guy, he’s so chilled and isn’t fazed out by his fame, he also LOVES and respects his fans, which I find so adorable.
At 3pm I went and picked up my photo with Bronson and went to line up to get an autograph, hi line was literally round the corner from where he was. I waited about 45 minutes for an autograph. When we finally got to him he looked so exhausted and tired (poor baby), he asked what team we were on which we replied with “Edward” then Sarah went “ohh and Jasper” Haah I forgot to go “Jared of course!” because I am now. He wrote (right handed btw) on a photo of the wolf pack “To Jess & Sarah From “Jared” his signature and a paw print along with xoxo” Cuuuuuute! We thanked him in which he replied with “no problem” and a dazzling smile!! I almost jumped over the table because of his hot ass accent!! All in all I had the best day EVER, all thanks to Bronson Pelletier! It was seriously worthwhile travelling all that way to meet him. If you EVER get the opportunity to meet Bronson Pelletier TAKE IT UP!!! You will NOT be disappointed, he loves his fans and is happy to give hugs, autographs, photos and even accepts the gifts his fans give him. He has a genuine personality and is so down to earth. It was a privilege to meet him and I hope he enjoyed his time in New Zealand and comes back soon. Thanks Bronson for giving me the best experience a twilight fan could ask for. If Bronson ever reads this on behalf of New Zealand we thank you Bronson for taking your time to come to New Zealand for Armageddon, we hope you had loads of fun and can’t wait to see you back here, Happy 23rd birthday for the 31st of December from all the Twilight fans that were at Armageddon and all the others throughout New Zealand.
-Jess J
I'm glad Bronson had a fun time in New Zealand and he represented the Twilight cast well. He was able to convert Jess into a Wolf Girl w/out much effort. Basically being cheerful! LOL. Can't wait to meet him at TwiTour!

Pink Paws at UK's Eternal Twilight 2
Kate, one of the moderators of our partner sites, Oh Quileutes, was able to attend Eternal Twilight 2 on Oct. 16-18 and of course showed her WolfPack spirit. Chaske, Gil and Tyson were guests. Following is her account...My paws were all made the week leading up to ET2. I needed to get another project i was working on for Chaske done first. I got some pink card off my mom, it wasn't very strong though. And i used my glitter gell pens to do the design on each of the paws. I wanted to have something that would stand out for each guy so i did the following:
Chaske - I wrote on it "we're howling forever"
Tyson - "Because everyone needs a best friend"
Gil - "Cos he's down with the kids"
I also put the actors name with their character underneath. I also added the pink paw website and my own website (oh-quileutes.org) to the bottom of them. I went for a slightly different colour scheme for each of them keeping the paw print in green (i didnt have a black) and it was dark enough. Finally i attached safety pins to the back of each one and attached them to my bag so they would always be on show.
I didn't get a chance to show everyone till that Sunday as the Saturday I was still a total bag of nerves!!! The first person I showed was Gil. He looked at it and was like this is cool. I wasn't able to get it signed unfortunately as I didn't have a spare auto ticket for anything else.
The next person was Tyson. He looked at it throughly and said that he had heard of the pink paws and loved it and asked if he could keep it. I of course said he could. I thought it would be a good thing so he has both website addys on it (even though he's a total tecnophobe lol). He was very impressed I could tell though.
Last was Chaske. I showed him again he had a thorough look and really liked it. He saw the little white love hearts i had added last minute and smiled at me, me = nearly a puddle of goo on the floor, lol!! He said that he thought it was awesome.
I wasn't able to get any of the guys to sign theirs, especially with Tyson wanting to keep his. But I think the fact they saw them was probably enough! I have a feeling that Tyson will most likely take his back and show the others too as he was really impressed.
My next event is in 30 days when i meet Bronson in London and I will be making him one, this time i will try and get a picture of him with his. Then again at ET3 and Collectormania 16 next year i will make new ones and hopefully get pictures with the boys and them.
I really hope we get more stories as i know the boys really like them!!
Keep up the movement!! I'll back you all the way!! xD
Wolf girl
x-x-x-x-x
Thanks Kate! Kate also won a dinner auction and had dinner with the cast: Chaske, Tyson, Gil, Edi and Rachelle. For pictures, you can see them on Black_Pack!
I'm so glad Tyson kept his! Maybe he'll start a collection? Technophobe or not, he's probably checked this site out. HI TYSON!

Julia Jones talks to LimeLife Part 1
LimeLife caught up with Julia Jones, who plays female lone werewolf, Leah Clearwater, in this two Part interivew.LimeLife: Julia, you were cast with a pretty dynamic and somewhat complex character. Can you tell us about Leah Clearwater?
Julia Jones: Yeah, totally. First of all she's the only werewolf who's a female, which is in itself a very cool thing, but she has this complicated backstory where she is heartbroken because the head of the pack Sam Uley left her for her best friend and her cousin. So in addition to that she's dealing with all the changes that you have in your body when you become a wolf, and as a girl there's really nobody who knows what's happening to her - she's really alone and out there and heartbroken at the same time. And it makes her very angry and mean, and really she's just in a lot of pain and she doesn't know how to ask for help so she lashes out.

Chaske's Vanity Fair Interview
VF.com: How did you get the part of Wolf Pack leader, Sam Uley?
Chaske Spencer: It was one of the weirdest auditions I’ve done. We put it on tape, and usually the process is: you meet the casting director, get a callback, then you meet the producer and director. This just went straight from tape. I auditioned for all of the parts of the Wolf Pack; they called me back and told me what part I had. Also, I didn’t really know who [the character] was because I didn’t know much about Twilight. Then I figured it out and said, “Wow, that’s a really good part.” It’s amazing. I’ve never gotten a part like that before.

Bronson Brings A smile To a Cancer Stricken Teen
Between the interviews and SkyJumping, Bronson took the time to visit a Cancer patient, which became a dream come true.
A 13-year-old girl beat down for months by constant chemotherapy was beaming yesterday after meeting the "wildest of the wolves" from her favourite series.
Taylor Harris, who is suffering from leukaemia, met actor Bronson Pelletier from soon-to-be-released Twilight: New Moon at the Rendezvous Hotel in a meeting organised by charities and Hoyts Cinemas.
Taylor was in awe at meeting her favourite character in the vampire romance series, the wildest of a pack of wolves.
"I'm kind of, like, star-struck," she said.
She had been left speechless the previous day when she found out about the meeting, she said.
According to Taylor, her mother Jacqui had also perked up in preparation for the meeting with the wild wolf, finding shirtless photos of Pelletier on Google.

Thanks to @emontestar (via Twitter) for the new banner! This banner is just a sample of a plethora of Wolfpack graphics from Hokulani-designz. She's one of the webmistresses there...check them out.
New Moon is just 34 days away. Will you be watching at midnight? Couple times...in a row? Or pay for one movie, watch that movie and then sneak into New Moon? HAHA. I'm sure you guys will be guilty for all the above.
Currently, Chaske, Tyson, and Gil are at Eternal Twilight 2 in the UK right now. Look forward to an experience with the paws soon!
Also, ET will show an exclusive clip from New Moon on Monday. They have showed a teaser and it is definitely Bella confronting the Wolf Pack. (Trying to search that teaser as I type LOL)
Lastly, if you or anyone you know is going to any appearances, twilight conventions, etc that the Pack will come to, let me know! I would love to hear your paws experience. Flash those paws and Become a Fan!

Pink Paws at the Twilight Convention in Chicago!
Rachel, one of the moderators at Tinsel Dreams, was gracious enough to kick start the Pink Paws at the Twilight Convention in Chicago this past week. The following is her experience...
I had little to no time to make individual paws. Much more make them all nice. They weren't even entirely really pink. They were pink ish purple ish! I tried though.
Any how I made one regular printing paper sized paw. On the inside I wrote "TEAM WOLF PACK" Then on the empty space near the paw I wrote: Pwning vampires since forever.
Now I didn't get to wave it around or anything either. Kind of hard trying to take pictures and do that at the same time. So I decided maybe I can show it to the boys during autograph session and MAYBE get it signed.
As I was in line one of the volunteers for the convention saw it. She thought it was adorable and a smart idea.
The first one to see it was Kiowa who was my first for the autograph session I asked if he could maybe sign it. The lady asked me if I had another autograph ticket, Which I said 'no'. She told me he can't and Kiowa I think felt bad for me and sad about that so he wanted to take time to look at it. He laughed as he looked at it and read my little pwning note. He smiled at me saying it was awesome and that he loved it.
The second one to see it was Bronson. He had the same reaction as Kiowa. He pretty much said "Yeah that's right we do." He thought it was cool of me to make it. I didn't ask him to sign it. I already knew the answer so I was just happy to show it to him.
The last to see it was Tyson. I didn't get much time with him but he did see the paw saying it was great.
I have to say it wasn't the prettiest paw, nor did I get much reaction from the boys considering the time I decided to show it to them and the fact I didn't have an autograph ticket for it to be signed but all in all I thought I got some good feedback.
It was nice of them to even look at it and appreciate it. The boys were gracious as always and the cutest group of the bunch I have to say.
:)
So that was my paw experience and I hope there are more paw experiences to come from other people!
I will probably do a better job with paws now that I actually know what to do and what not!
-Tinsel Dreams
Right now, I don't have the picture of her paw. I will soon! She is currently working on her Tinsel Korey fansite that will go live very soon! Again, thanks Rachel for kicking this off! I don't mind her making one paw, but if you guys made multiple paws, imagine the guys' reactions!
I'm thinking this may not work for autograph sessions. We could always try. We could always pose with them during the photo-ops!
