Shakira is no actress, but maybe it's time for her to become one.

She and her hips are wanted over at ABC's new hit comedy Modern Family.

"I'm trying to convince her to act," M.F. star and resident MILF Sofia Vergara told me at the American Music Awards. "Hopefully, she'll say yes."

Vergara liked our suggestion that...

Stephenie Meyer revealed during her recent visit to Oprah that she doesn't know if there will be a fifth Twilight book because she's "a little burned out on vampires right now."

So it got us thinking: If she's suffering from bloodsucker fatigue, could others be feeling it, too?

Is Robert Pattinson jonesing for a break from vampires? What about Kristen Stewart? We asked and they answered.

Read on to find out what they and many of their costars told us at last night's New Moon premiere...

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner may be the big stars of New Moon, but it was a couple of hairy beasts who almost stole the spotlight at last night's premiere party at L.A.'s Hammer Museum.

Outside of the Volturi-inspired bash, under a tent designed to look like a forest, were two—ready for this?—real-life timberwolves. They were kept at a safe distance from guests behind a fence.

Now, let's get back to Rob and Kristen...

It's not exactly a national holiday, but there are some people who are treating tonight's New Moon premiere in Los Angeles as if it were one.

Kestlie Stefanelli, a 14-year-old from Truckee, Calif., has taken three days off from school so she could camp out near the theater in the Westwood Village neighborhood of L.A. She and her mother, Laurie, are two of an estimated 500 people who started arriving on Thursday with pup tents, lawn chairs and sleeping bags in hopes of securing a good spot on or near the red carpet?

Congrats, Kellan Lutz!

I just got word that the New Mooner will be one of just about five honorees at the upcoming Variety Power of Youth event. Mr. Lutz is being recognized for his work with abused, neglected and abandoned children at the Royal Family Kids Camp.

Power of Youth awards will be given out on Dec. 5 at the Paramount lot in Hollywood.

And you thought only Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart got all the attention!

Should we now call him the award-winning Levi Johnston?

The Alaskan teen formerly known as Sarah Palin's future son-in-law was in New York City last night to pick up porn website Fleshbot's Crossover Star award.

In other words, he got props for having the cojones to strip down for Playgirl…

Directors, beware! If you plan on booking Brad Pitt for a film, you may want to check in with Quentin Tarantino first.

Sounds like an Inglourious Basterds prequel is Pitt's top priority.

"Everybody would drop whatever they're doing to go back to work with Quentin," Pitt's Basterds costar Eli Roth told us at the Hamilton Behind the Camera Awards presented by Movieline.com in Hollywood. "All the time, Brad says, 'Prequel, prequel!' All the 'basterds' would jump on it in a second."

In fact, this possible prequel is already under way...sorta. Read on for the details.

Don't be surprised if people start referring to Charlize Theron as Ass-Nuts.

The Oscar winner revealed at last night's Hollywood Film Awards that Breakthrough Actor honoree Jeremy Renner bestowed her with the nickname during the making of their 2005 drama, North Country.

Theron and Renner along with the rest of the cast went out for some drinks and…

It was just a little over a month ago that Kathy Griffin's date for the Teen Choice Awards was Sarah Palin's almost-son-in-law Levi Johnston.

But Bristol Palin's 19-year-old baby daddy was nowhere to be found at the Emmys.

"He's in his igloo in Wasilla crying and texting me," Griffin, 48, told me. "I'm at the stage in the relationship where I have to play hard to get, but I will say this, I've been throwing up for about two weeks and I do feel a little kicking."

On a more serious note, the Mariska Hargitay was her usual beautiful self on the red carpet in a Carolina Herrera gown...

Hello from downtown Los Angeles!

I'm down at the Nokia Theatre right now on the Emmy red carpet. I'll be here tweeting away until about 5 p.m. PST and I'll continue inside during the show. And it doesn't stop there. After the awards are handed out, I'm headed to the always fun and glam-filled HBO party!

So follow me now on Twitter at @marcmalkin.

Who are you excited to see and hear from? Justin Timberlake (yup, he's presenting!), hot-stuff Jon Hamm, House star Hugh Laurie or funny guy and host Neil Patrick Harris? How about Ms. Hilarious herself, Tina Fey; the always stunningly beautiful Mariska Hargitay; or I-can't-wait-to-see-what-she-is-wearing Drew Barrymore?

And of course there's that dance between Karina and Maks! As far I've been told, rehearsals have been nothing but hot. Perhaps they'll be back together by the end of the evening.

Happy Emmys, everybody!
