Is New Moon Even Good?
Shocker—New Moon is dominating the box office. The second Twi flick grossed $26.3 million just in midnight showings. Sorry, Twi haters, but this franchise is here to stay.
We've done enough talking on New Moon this, Twilight that, so now it's your turn.
No doubt many of you are going to check out the flick this weekend, and we want to hear your thoughts. That nasty Answer B!tch posted a semigenius review of N.M. broken down into movie ratings based on your Twilight devotion.
As you all head to the theater to check out not very much R.Pattz but more Kristen and Taylor, let us know if you think Twilight 2 lives up to its hype.

Truth, Lies & Ted: Twilight Special
New Moon hits theaters at midnight, which is why we've made this week nonstop Twilight (next week for you haters we'll try and just stop, promise). As Twilight fever hits, I sink my teeth into the top truths and lies about the slurp-a-sexy New Moon cast.
You'll never guess how it ends...

Ridiculous Twilight Hookups in an "All Taken" Cast
"I think Megan Fox was actually touted once. Which is ridiculous! I don't know how that happened. That poor girl is so saturated [in the media] with sex."
—Our new New Moon crush Charlie Bewley, when we asked him if he pays attention to all of the hookup rumors surrounding the Twi cast
Jeez, no idea where the Fox rumor could have gotten started! One of our Vancouver spies still swears something happened between Robert Pattinson and foxy Fox, but who really knows?
As for which girl Mr. Bewley had his eye on? Seems too many of the female leads were already swooped up...
Screw Edward! Screw Jacob! We're Team Emmett
Hey, Margo and Charlie Casablanca reporting.
While every stupid human out there is so busy bitch-fighting over who has the better abs—Robert Pattinson or Taylor Lautner—nobody's really seeing why their New Moon costar Kellan Lutz beats them all! Now, not only does Kellan have rock-hard abs, biceps, thighs and just about every other attribute a healthy homo erectus could want, he's also got the best heart, paws down.
Kel-babe, as our stupidly Twi-hard dad would say, doesn't even pay attention to all that gooey AnnaLynne McCord and love crap said about him. Instead, he uses his time in the media to talk about how important it is to rescue chicks like us.
Take Lutz's appearance on Ellen, where he not only talked about how fans hit on him while he was nude...
Abuse Us Some More, Rob Pattinson!
This is too friggin' funny. While Robert Pattinson taped a segment for the The Ellen DeGeneres Show (airing Friday), he asked a fan to strip off her clothes. And she did!
"I was doing a preinterview for this [show], and I immediately regretted saying that," the awkwardly adorable R.Pattz says. "I sound like I'm actually just abusing my position.
"It was after a period of signing 500 signatures, and one of [the fans] just came up. You kind of get 10 seconds with each person and you never really say anything, and I kind of got bored of saying, 'Hey, how are you doing?' And [the fan] said in her 10 seconds, 'What can I do to get your attention?' I was like, 'Um, just take your clothes off.' And she stood there and frantically started taking her clothes off and got dragged out of the room by security. I never felt more terrible."
This makes us love Rob 10 times more! Perverted, huh? We would start messing with fans, too, after a while. Actually, we're shocked R.Pattz hasn't done it more. He has so much power over these helpless ones! Might as well make it entertaining.

Dishy Rob Pattinson: Kristen Stewart Cooks a "Mean Spam"
We've got tons of dish for you from the entire New Moon cast and premiere, but let's get to the really good stuff first—Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.
The two didn't snap pics together on the carpet, and no one could ask the two stars for any personal bites on each other. But we were able to squeeze some cuteness out of Rob.
Producer Bill Bannerman, by the by, told us Kristen was the Julia Child of the cast. So does Rob like her home cookin', too? And how did the two spend their day off in Madrid?
We've got all this, plus piles o' dish from the afterparty, so you'll def want to read on:
Bitch-Back! What's Brad Got to Do With It?
Dear Ted:
Was Angie on the mystery diet when she and Brad got together? If so, why would a man want to have a huge family with a less than "healthy" woman? How accurate is the new bio on these two?
—Kesurface
Dear Bust Up Brange:
Yes, Brad very well knew what he was getting into when he ran over to be Jolie's pet.
Dear Ted:
Have Sarah Jessica Parker and hubby Matthew Broderick ever been in one of your blind vices, either together or separately?
—Victoria
Dear Obvious One:
Of course. Innocent, they're not.
Dear Ted:
Who will make it to the altar first: Hayden Christensen, Jensen Ackles or George Eads?
—Fake it
Dear No for Three:
Eads. By default.
Dear Ted:
As everybody else I raved with Robsten's holding hands photo. As you said, in Robsten's terms that was the equivalent to a sex tape. But precisely because of it, can we say that it was an accident? Just a lucky papz in the right place, in the right time? I mean, they're always trying so hard to not appear together like "together" and now this? Or maybe Summit decided to take some advantage? After all, with New Moon's premiere just there, this is sensational, free publicity. Don't misinterpret me, I think it was great, I mean, it was Robsten holding hands!
—Afrodita
What Do You Call a Really Horny Vampire?
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.
Bitch-Back! Is Religion a Laughing Matter?
Dear Ted:
Celebrities may or not be "fair game," but Scientology is a religion practiced by millions of housewives, lawyers, students, firemen, doctors and bricklayers, who say it helps them lead happier lives. Maybe it shouldn't be casually slimed in a gossip column.
—John Carmichael
Dear Slime Away:
Thanks to Tom Cruise, and his surprising spiral, it's hard to take anything he backs all that seriously.
Dear Ted:
In Ian Halperin's book on Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, he says that Angie and her team waged a mean-spirited campaign against Jennifer Aniston and planted stories to the media about how Jen didn't want kids, etc. Do you think this is true? I mean, it wouldn't shock me, Angie does seem to me a manipulative witch and I can see her doing this, just wanted your thoughts. Come on, Ted, please tell me that Angie hasn't changed at all and this "Mother Teresa" persona she wants us all to believe is one big old act!
—Anc
Dear Bitchalina:
Whether Brange planted stories or not, some of those are in fact true. And hell, no, A.J.'s totally saintly, now, don't you know?
Dear Ted:
Stop trying to make Ashley Greene-Kellan Lutz happen. They are not happening for the fans, it's obvious. You refer to her and Jackson Rathbone as ex flames, are they still friends though?
—Bella
Bitch-Back! What's Eating Angie?
Dear Ted:
Do you think Angelina Jolie has an eating disorder? Nobody can be so skinny after having three babies. Love Ya!
—Lieb
Dear Bones 'n' All:
She's on what we call a mystery diet. Think about it.
Dear Ted:
With all of the hoopla over Jensen Ackles getting engaged, people are speculating that one reason is that this will be Supernatural's last season. If this is indeed true, what do you think that means for Jackles (or Padackles, as I prefer to call them)? Will their epic bromance stand the test of time and new-found distance? Or will it fade into oblivion as so many friendships do?
—Next-door neighbors
Dear Bye-Bye Bromance:
If it's true bromance, they'll stay together. Have some faith!
Dear Ted:
Michael Lohan leaked those tapes for the same reason he is "friends" with Jon Gosselin: attention! He can't get any for any of his own accomplishments, so he has to mooch it off of everyone else. I am surprised he doesn't go around photo-bombing people!
—Amanda F., NYC
Dear Lohan So Yesterday:
He's an attention whore, just like his daughter...actually just like his whole fam. But we're all over it. Daddy Lohan needs to get the picture.
Dear Ted:
Are Woody Harrelson and Owen Wilson just really good friends or "really good friends"?
—J.D.
Truth, Lies & Ted: Is John Mayer Growing Up?
Is John Mayer sick of his womanizing ways? What will Robsten's fate be post-Twilight? All this, plus some delicious Dancing With the Stars scoop in today's high-flying Truth, Lies, & Ted.
Bitch-Back! Michael Lohan's a Good Guy?
Dear Ted:
Why is everyone being so hard on Michael Lohan? Obviously leaking those voice mails to the tabloids isn't the best way to go about forcing your daughter to hit rock-bottom, but what else could he do? No other method worked to get her into rehab. Not saying I agree with it 100 percent but hey—leave no stone unturned, right? I say it just may be the push over the edge to get the help she needs. What say you?
—Nichole, Stamford, Conn.
Dear See Your Crazy and Raise You Crazier:
If Michael was really doing it in Lindsay's best interest, sure, I could see your point. But if he really cares he should go over to her house and force the girl into rehab.
Dear Ted:
Was Madonna a subject of a Blind Vice? And do you think Jesus will go Jewish for her?
—Mag
Dear Surprising One:
No, actually, the Queen is exempt. I think Jesus will do whatever the hell she tells him to. He's a sugar baby.
Dear Ted:
I have no doubt in my mind that Robsten is a real couple, and I was loving the hand-holding pics! But their timing for PDA is a little too perfect. I cannot picture Rob or Kristen agreeing to this, but please tell me the paps just got lucky and this was not set up by Summit or one of their reps?
—Sburrow
