How Much New Moon Cash Will Rob and Kristen Get?

About New Moon: With all these pots of money the movie is earning, does the cast get to share in the windfall? At the very least will they gets cars or Rolexes or something? And are these kids finally A-listers now?
—Scarlett via the Answer B!tch inbox
As much as you may think that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart each deserve a brand new shiny Volvo for delivering all that magic over the weekend, as far as I know, they'll just have to settle for millions and millions of dollars.
As for a piece of the action and other perks, well...

Selena Gomez: I'm Not Hating on Twilight!
DZILLA/bauergriffinonline.com
Selena Gomez wants you to know that she never said she doesn't like Twilight.
The Disney darling has been getting a lot of flack from Twi-hards because they're feeling like she dissed the world's most talked-about vampire franchise when she told Bonnie Hunt last week that she hasn't actually seen Twilight.
"All I said was that I didn't watch it and I felt bad for not watching it," Selena explained to me at yesterday's American Music Awards. "But of course, now it's like, 'I don't like it.' That's not the case."
And Selena is brave enough to admit that—gasp!—she hasn't read any of Stephenie Meyer's Twi-novels, either. "I feel bad," she said. "And I'm sorry if I offended anyone for that."
Selena certainly wasn't the only one talking Twilight and New Moon at the AMAs. Read on for more…
Reset Your Twilight Countdown Clocks for Eclipse
Summit Entertainment
All right, so we all saw New Moon at least twice this past weekend, right? (If only we had all seen it three times...) And it was pretty awesome or fun or terrible or whatever depending on your fandom level!
But it's really time we move on and reset our Twilight countdown for Eclipse. Today makes it about seven months and a week until our favorite gang of moody teenagers bring their tortured love triangle back to the big screen.
For now, all we've got is this new Eclipse poster, which hints that the third installment will be pretty cloudy. Ahhhhh! Cannot wait!

But Where Was Rachelle Lefevre While Robsten & Co. Partied for New Moon?
twitter.com/RachelleLefevre/status/5787052240
Didn't the gang look lovely together at the New Moon premiere last night?
Too bad they weren't all there. Rachelle Lefevre was MIA.
But the actress, who plays Victoria in both Twilight and New Moon but was famously dismissed for Eclipse, wasn't a no-show just because of sour grapes. It turns out last night was sour for her for completely separate reasons.
"2 fans at the premiere: w/ Honey in hospital & being fired from Eclipse tonight was just 2 emotional 4 me & I couldn't manage it. So sorry," she twittered last night.
Honey is a dog she adopted from an animal rescue agency—and who recently inspired her to become the spokeswoman for Best Friends' Puppies Aren't Products campaign.
Honey's health—and Rachelle's ability to attend the premiere—wasn't looking promising earlier yesterday, when she tweeted, "Honey is in the hospital and I don't know what's going to happen. I wonder if you can die from a broken heart..."
We wish the honey and her Honey the very best.

What Do You Call a Really Horny Vampire?
HBO/Jaimie Trueblood
Let's face it: Vampires, in general, are a pretty salacious bunch. But we've basically got two kinds lurking around, right?
There's the more noble and chiseled variety, as in Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen. But on the other fang, you've got flesh-chomping sex-crawlers Nikki Reed and Alexander Skarsgård. On-camera, too, for that matter!
Which begs, just begs, the need for a new addition to our fab Celeb Addictionary! Certainly for castmembers of the myriad Vamp shows and movies who can't necessarily be trusted with humans' throats once the day's shooting is done.
Want to hear what we think they should be called?
Vamp-Tramp, of course!
Exact definition: (noun) one who plays a vampire on camera, but whose off-camera neck-thirsty antics pale by comparison.
Can you top that? Then slap your saucy words into the Addictionary widget below.
Oh, and by the way, I suppose you could talk us into putting R.Pattz and Kristen Stewart into this definition, but we'd probably have to be drinking the same thing as Lindsay Lohan to agree to it. After all, Robsten's all about subtlety, which Skarsgård and Reed seem to run from like Dracula flees from garlic bread.
Kellan Lutz: More Excited by Eclipse Than New Moon
James Breeden/ Sam Sharma PacificCoastNews.com
Sure, Kellan Lutz thinks New Moon is a "great" movie, but he's not afraid to admit he's more excited by Eclipse.
"Eclipse is a masculine movie," Lutz says. "I love it. All the stunts I was able to do by myself. It's an action movie!"
In fact, Lutz thinks the third installment will bring even more new fans to the franchise...
This Week in Vampires: Underpattz and Hitler!
BBC Television; HBO / Steven Lippman
Only 19 days until The Twilight Saga: New Moon opens—squeeeee!—and the undead are getting restless. And they're totally cashing in.
Vampire activity has been off the charts this week: Did you see what they did to poor Robert Pattinson's face, and how Hitler, Stephen King and some British guys are involved?
Here's the very latest vampire news, in case you missed it:
The Sun Goes Down on Twilight Saga: Eclipse
Summit Entertainment
Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are dunzo, but not in the way OK! thinks.
The dazzling duo finished filming Eclipse, the third installment of the Twilight Saga, early this morning, director David Slade confirmed via Twitter.
"Twilight Eclipse officially wrapped shooting, at 4.30 a.m. October 29th," the helmer wrote from Vancouver (which would be Pacific Time). "Physically and emotionally exhausted."
Taylor and Taylor Hit the Town—and Shack Up?

Looks like Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift are on the fast track from being "just friends" to a little bit more. Tay-Squared stepped out together for the first time officially last night, hitting up the Los Angeles Kings game.
T & T, both dressed in black, took in the game from second-row seats and looked like they were having a fab time together, onlookers tell us.
As for their nightcap?
Eclipse Title Treatment Makes for a Moony Monday
Summit Entertainment
Eclipse may have already rocked its wrap party, but the goodies from the third installment of the Twilight Saga have only just begun.
Amidst all the fun that's kicking off with New Moon hitting theaters in 25 days, the Eclipse title treatment isn't necessarily the most exciting Twi-thing going down, but it's sure worth the tease.
No, it doesn't feature new images of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart making out or anything, but we totally know there'll be plenty of that next year when the film comes out.
Eclipse gets a much sharper, daggerlike makeover than New Moon had, and sits in blood red shadows. Very ominous. Kind of like Dakota Fanning's scary red eyes.
The Twilight Twitter launched the image earlier than it had promised—it vowed to show us the title when it eclipsed 200,000 followers and it's still nowhere close. But instead, it's promising something else just as tantalizing when it hits that big number, so you might want to hit that "follow" button.
Not enough action to jump start your week? Hold on to your seats, folks...
Feel free to follow us @eonline while you're at it.

Another Day, Another New Moon Clip—Life Is Good
This new scene from New Moon is going to make you flip.
Kristen Stewart did. Literally.
The 45-second, Taylor Lautner-free snippet shows K.Stew, Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene facing the Volturi—played by Michael Sheen, Jamie Campbell Bower and Christopher Hayerdahl—in Italy for the first time.
"What do we do with you now?" Aro asks. "You already know what you're going to do," Marcus responds. "She knows too much. She's a liability," Caius threatens, before Aro orders Felix into attack mode.
And then...flip! Edward tosses Bella over his arm to get between them. A high-flying fight ensues.
It's actually pretty sweet.

Can K.Stew Stop Paparazzi From Covering Her?
INFphoto.com
How can mags like OK! publish celeb photos without their permission? Kristen Stewart stated she's sick of herself in all the papers, can't she do something?
—Ana, Vancouver
As oppressed by paparazzi as your favorite Twilight stars may seem—barely able to sparkle in the sun, much less go out for a latte amid all that adoration—there is such a thing as the law.
In short, it protects freedom of expression—including news gathering and photography—from censorship by the rich or powerful. It may be stressful to be K.Stew right now, but it's not the media's job—nor, let's be clear, your job as a fan—to help her have a nice day. Especially given the profession she willingly chose and the wealth and influence it has afforded her.
So what can Kristen do, pinned down in Canada like she is? Behold, her own personalized siege strategy...
