Bitch-Back! Does Harry Potter Magic Trump R.Pattz?
Dear Ted:
Movie hotness aside, I think your comparison of Harry Potter and Twilight is a little one-sided (which was your intention, I know). Stephenie Meyer's books are about sex and only sex. Sure, she added vamps and werewolves, but the message is "Don't have sex until you're married, it's bad, but then it's wonderful." The H.P. books are about growing up and dealing with all the problems associated, not just sex. And J. K. Rowling doesn't paint a fake, happily ever after picture of the world either.

Dear Wrong Reasoning:
I don't care what the movies are about or about the talent involved, all I care is how smoldering the actors are on the carpet. And the Twilight cast wins, hands-down.
Dear Ted:
Sarah Palin seemed like she was going to break into a hysterical screaming fit throughout most of that bizarre press conference. Is the real reason she is resigning because there is some awful scandal about her looming on the horizon about to come out? I truly hope so. I cannot stand that woman or her politics.

Dear Palin Problems:
Anything Sar's got hidden away couldn't be more embarrassing than what we already know about her. Then again...
Dear Ted:
Why doesn't Jennifer Aniston hook up with Matthew Perry? They were Friends, and both are single. Thoughts?

Harry Potter's on Fire! But Is the Cast Chemistry Hot?
In honor of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince smashing records already, we wanted to give the H.P. kids a pat on the back. They even beat out last summer's blockbuster The Dark Knight, grossing more money during midnight showings. Unreal!
They may not be as hyped-up of a cast as Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, but we still totally adore Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint.
Check out red carpet leftovers above from the New York premiere of Harry Potter. They all look just too cute. But we can't help but raise the question: Does the cast have the same sizzling chemistry as its cult competitor Twilight?
Do-Me Meter: Twilight Kids vs. the Harry Potter Gang
We adore the kids from Harry Potter, without question (after all, it's because of H.P. that Robert Pattinson first stepped into the spotlight!). But seeing the gaggle of some-hot, some-not young stars step out at the premiere of the sixth film makes us reminisce of another young crew at a big H'wood opening.
We remember (quite fondly, of course) when our favorite Twilight castmembers made their debut at the premiere of their film last year. In just one picture, there was sex, there was scandal and there was hot, hot, mouth-watering woo, especially between Rob and Kristen, natch.
Sure, the H.P. kids are comely in that wow-look-how-much-they've-matured-since-the-first-movie kind of way; Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe have come into their own and look fresh enough. But where's the smoldering, steamy friction that should be exuding off their bods? Where are the piercing eyes, the sexy smiles and the promiscuous expressions that our Twilight brood has in friggin' spades?
Nowhere, that's where.
