Burger King has invaded the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con this weekend to announce to the world that they have teamed up with the upcoming sequel film The Twilight Saga: New Moon as the official food product placement sponsor for the film. Handing out their trademark cardboard crowns, BK is hoping to sink their teeth into the rabid Twilight fanbase that seems able to sell just about anything:

Tens of thousands of Twilighters at the San Diego Comic-Con this morning were greeted by Burger King representatives, strategically placed outside events promoting the franchise. The BK reps handed out paper folding “crowns” — a long-time trademark of the hamburger franchise. But instead of featuring the King himself, the crowns featured the likenesses of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and others. MTV can confirm that Burger King will be featured in the “New Moon” film via product placement, with its food products being consumed by the movie’s stars — well, at least, those of them that can eat human food. To help promote the tie-in, Burger King will soon begin distributing paper crowns in stores worldwide. One reads “Team Edward” and features Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the Cullen clan. The other reads “Team Jacob” and has Taylor Lautner staring seductively from the front of the crown, accompanied by photos of Stewart, and the shirtless Wolf Pack. “Coming to Burger King Restaurants November 2009″ reads the crowns, which are currently wrapped around the heads of thousands of Twilighters around the San Diego Convention Center. Another interesting confirmation on the crowns? Near the bottom is the words “PG-13. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.” Stay tuned for blood, Bella and burgers this November, as “Twilight” fans will be getting it their way.

Oh man … is BK gonna cash in or what? As soon as rabid Twilighters hear that the folks in Twilight like to eat Burger King food, they will line up for miles on a daily basis just to eat what the Twilight characters eat. Brills! I imagine that BK will also be working up fun Kid’s Meals prizes for Twilighters to collect as well … BK is gonna make a lot of money, y’all. Before I heard about this Twilight promotion, I was already impressed with one of their newest commercials. After the jump, check out which aging 80′s pop princess, which aging 80′s rapper and which ex-American Idol co-host has found new work as a BK spokespeople …

Aww … ain’t it nice that Burger King took pity enough on Debbie Gibson and Tone-Loc to give them jobs? And lookie there, Brian Dunkleman … the man who used to co-host American Idol with Ryan Seacrest. Didn’t Ryan just sign a $45,000,000.00 contract to host the show for the next 3 seasons? What do you suppose BK paid Dunkleman to be in this commercial? HMMMM. No matter … it looks like Burger King‘s ad campaign people are on a roll these days. I wonder if McDonald’s is worried.
