Life goes on for Rachelle Lefevre.

Twilight's former Victoria enjoyed dinner with her boyfriend, Tudors actor Jamie Thomas King, last night at L.A.'s Buddha's Belly restaurant.

An eyewitness reports that the lovebirds enjoyed their meal al fresco. "They were holdings hands and no one bothered them," the source said. "Her hair was down—and boy, is it still long! She didn't seem stressed."

But will Lefevre and her signature abundance of red locks be around this coming weekend at the Teen Choice Awards?

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene, Nikki Reed and Kellan Lutz are already confirmed to attend the two-hour ceremony (it tapes Sunday and airs the following night on Fox). Not only does Twilight have 12 nominations, but they gotta promote New Moon (It hits theaters in less than four months!).

Most, if not all of the stars, will be jetting in from Vancouver for the awards. I'm told they're descending on Canada this week to start prepping Eclipse with director David Slade. Shooting is set to begin Aug. 17, the same day cameras start rolling on Lefevre's indie flick, Barney's Version.

Until the recasting controversy exploded last week, Lefevre probably would have been joining her vampire costars at Teen Choice, according to an insider.

Even if Lefevre does show up, don't expect her to reveal too much about how she feels. I'm told her legal team has advised her not to say anything further about the messy situation with Summit Entertainment.

You must take a look at the New Moon posters that Summit released today. Can Pattinson and Stewart be any hotter?
