Rob to Appear on Jay Leno

Looks like Rob might go on Jay Leno to promote Eclipse. Check it out:

The “Twilight” team has picked “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” to promote the third installment of the movie series, “The Twilight Saga’s Eclipse”. It has come to knowledge that Robert Pattinson is scheduled to have a talk with Jay Leno on June 15, two weeks away from the film’s release in the U.S.

Leno has not confirmed the appearance but a source did to Gossip Cop. It is still unclear whether Pattinson would be solo or accompanied by his co-stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. But these two have done their part in supporting the movie by attending a meet and greet in Sydney, Australia earlier this week.

Pattinson opted to visit Leno’s rival “Late Show with David Letterman” when promoting “The Twilight Saga’s New Moon” which hit theaters last year.

According to E! it is official that Rob and the gang will be presenting at the MTV Movie Awards. Check it out:

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will be at the upcoming MTV Movie Awards in L.A. Not only will they be showing their faces, but…

The trio will once again hit the stage together to introduce a never-before-seen scene from Eclipse. They did the same for New Moon at last year’s Movie Awards and MTV’s Video Music Awards in September.

Hosted by funnyman Aziz Ansari, MTV’s golden popcorn trophies will be handed out during a live telecast on June 6 from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, Calif. Previously announced presenters include Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Jonah Hill, Jessica Biel, Anna Kendrick, Olympian Shaun White and Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Less than a week later, Pattinson, Stewart and Lautner will take part in a panel discussion at a Twilight fan convention in Los Angeles on June 12. Organizers have already warned that they will not be available for autographs or photo ops because of “scheduling.”

Robert Pattinson wanted to be….a Rapper!

On the Oprah show premiering Tomorrow, May 13, Robert has revealed quite the interesting fact. When he was younger, he wanted to be a hip-hop rapper. Check it out:

Robert Pattinson is best known for his turn as vampire heartthrob Edward Cullen in “The Twilight Saga,” but if the actor had followed through on his teenage hopes, he would have walked down a very different career path — as a rapper.

“I used to want to be a rapper when I was, like, 14,” the British actor revealed during an appearance on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” set to air Thursday.

Pattinson, who was joined on the show by co-stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner to promote the release of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” in June, explained that his interest in American movies, music and other entertainment helped him develop his American accent as Edward in “Twilight.”

“But Kristen thinks I do the most terrible American accent,” he joked.

“No, no I don’t,” Stewart laughed in response. “Occasionally, some word will come out, and I’ll be like, ‘We don’t say that!’ ”

Of course, Pattinson did not pursue his youthful dreams of becoming a rapper. Instead, he became one of the most prominent icons in modern popular culture, thanks to his involvement in the “Twilight” series. “It’s a great position to be in, because you can walk into a room and everybody’s screaming,” he laughed of his association to “Twilight.”

But Pattinson believes that fans are more passionate about his “Twilight” character than they are of the actor himself. “It’s not really about you,” he said. “So it never really goes to your head, and you can kind of participate in it. It’s about the fans themselves.”

‘Eclipse’ Secrets Exposed

Thanks to Reel Empire, we have just a few tidbits regarding Eclipse. Check it out:

‘Twilight: Eclipse’ secrets exposed! While browsing the web, we came across some interesting secrets regarding the third installment in Summit Entertainment’s extremely successful vampire series entitled “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” that we thought we’d share with you readers.

To be honest, they’re not as much secrets as they are discoveries and many of you may already know about them. First, we learned that the actors are reshooting a scene where Robert Pattinson’s
Edward Cullen and Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan kiss. They’re also apparently reshooting the famous ‘tent scene’ where Bella must choose between Edward and Taylor Lautner’s Jacob Black. In addition, we also learned that test audiences weren’t entirely pleased with the tent scene. According to various reports, viewers that the scene was too dark and adult.

During the reshoots, Stephenie Meyer (author of the “Twilight” books) stood by director David Slade for three days of reshooting. Apparently she wanted to make sure the director did everything right this time so not to disappoint the fans.

Finally, not that it’s all that surprising, but reports claim that while Robert and Kristen were in Vancouver, Canada doing the reshoots for “Eclipse”, the doors to their hotel prohibited anyone from entering — including maids. Wonder what was going on behind those doors?
