Actors and Op spokesmen Alex Meraz (from Twilight), Cory Monteith (from Glee) and Trevor Donovan (from 90210) made their way out to Shawn’s Pumpkin Patch in Culver City, CA to host the Op Halloween Treat For Kids event yesterday afternoon. The guys hung out with a select group of lucky kids from a local chapter of The Boys and Girls Club of America who were treated to face painting, pumpkin painting and general Hallowe’en fun … here are a few cute photos:

I know we’re used to seeing photos of famous families (like Heidi Klum and fam) and individual celeb parents (like Halle Berry and Christina Aguilera) taking their children to the pumpkin patch but I think these photos of these young men hanging out with the kids at the pumpkin patch are just too adorable. It looks like the kids featured here are all boys … which is even cuter. I didn’t grow up with a big brother in the house so I can appreciate how much it must’ve meant to these boys to have Alex, Cory and Trevor devote some of their time to hang out with them. What a fun event!

Pretty much everyone and their mother (literally) was at LA Live in downtown LA last night for the Hollywood (and LA Film Festival) premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Not only was pretty much ever actor even remotely associated with the Twilight films in the hiz last night but so, too, were hordes of fans who had camped out for DAYS just to get tickets to attend last night’s premiere. Here are photos of Twilight stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner (currently on the cover of this week’s issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine) on the red carpet last night and some deets from the event:

Monica Siegel and her two friends dropped a total of $2,500 and flew hundreds of miles to camp out for four days on a patch of sidewalk in downtown Los Angeles with the hope that they might see one of the heartthrob stars of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.” Their gamble paid off — and then some. Siegel, 22, of Fennville, Mich., was giddy with excitement after she not only nabbed a prime spot near the red carpet to swoon over the movie’s stars, but also was one of just a few dozen selected to take in the film inside with the stars of the blockbuster vampire series. “It’s completely worth every bit of it,” Siegel said after learning she had scored the premiere seats. “I’m freaking out!” Siegel said the entire experience was great but the best part was seeing the movie with the people who made it. “Kristen (Stewart) was amazing. She actually talked with us and paid attention to what we were saying instead of rushing by. The whole night is one big, happy memory,” Siegel said. Siegel, 21-year-old Amanda Willis of Dallas, and 25-year-old Melissa Moorhead of Seattle were among thousands of so-called “Twi-hards” who had flocked to the Nokia Theatre at the L.A. Live entertainment complex since early this week, camping out in a specially designated tent city for a fleeting glimpse of stars such as Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. Up to 9,000 people were issued wristbands for a chance to see the film. At least 550 early birds, like Siegel, were ensured a spot along the red carpet, which was black for the occasion. Celebrities working their way down the carpet before the premiere were swarmed with screaming, frantic fans. Stewart, who plays Bella, took the fandemonium in stride. “It’s really only seemingly crazy when the movies come out, and you want that. I usually live a normal life,” Stewart said. Lautner, who plays werewolf Jacob, was asked if he ever wished he was less popular. “I don’t think I’m popular. I think it’s the character,” Lautner said. “I’m grateful to be here, and I’m grateful for the fans.” Pattinson, who plays vampire Edward, said of the frenzy: “I tune it all out ’til later. You get used to it, but it’s still a struggle.” Dakota Fanning, who plays the vampire Jane, said she was amazed by the fan presence — even in comparison with what she has seen in her own childhood acting career. “It’s really exciting. I don’t think I’ll ever be part of something like this for the rest of my life,” she said. “It’s really kind of surreal.” AEG, which owns L.A. Live and distributed the premiere wristbands with Summit Entertainment, screened “New Moon” for fans Tuesday night. On Wednesday, the film’s actors, Peter Facinelli, Billy Burke, Julia James and Jackson Rathbone, distributed hamburgers, CDs and makeup in the tent city. “It’s not very often in this business that you get to come out here and do something like this,” Burke said. “The fans of these movies are so gracious and lovely. It’s great to do anything we can.” Stephanie Tregea, 19, drove 500 miles from Upper Lake, in Northern California, to attend the premiere. She wore a black T-shirt that said “Team Carlisle,” and held a sign that read: “My cat died while I’ve been in line. (Peter, comfort me during this sadness).” It got her an extended embrace from Facinelli, who plays Cullen patriarch Carlisle. Tregea said she is concerned about a Twilight jinx, because her dog died as she waited in line for the “New Moon” premiere last year. She debated not seeing the next installment. “It’s been hectic and stressful because there’s a lot of people,” said Tregea, who alternated camping out with sleeping in a hotel room shared with two friends. Amanda Belcher, 27, a mom from Scranton, Pa., who took a week off work at a public affairs agency to camp out for the premiere, said the experience was worth it. “It’s a great way to bring people together,” Belcher said. “It’s like intense friendship building.”

Dang, that’s devotion. I only camped out over night once (in an alley in downtown Detroit for tix to a tiny Tori Amos club show at my fave Detroit venue St. Andrew’s Hall back in 1998) but I think I can appreciate the devotion felt by these fans. Thousands of people waited countless hours in line yesterday just to buy an iPhone 4 … fans are fans, and we are all fans of something. I’m just glad to hear that these kids (and moms) who camped out for so long managed to be successful in their endeavor to get up close to their fave Twilight stars. And speaking of … check out some photos of some of the celebs who walked the red carpet last night, after the jump …

Mario Lopez, host of Extra! TV, is hoping to use his half-nekkid body to cash in on the crazy Twilight hysteria by imagining himself as a member of the werewolf pack in The Twilight Saga: New Moon … here is the result:

Mario Lopez is proving he’s “got the guns,” as Kristen Stewart has said. “Extra” superimposed the shirtless host into a “New Moon” promo shot. Check out behind-the-scenes footage of Lopez here. Lopez fits right in with Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier. In a sit-down interview with “Extra,” Pelletier — who is nicknamed “Slater Jr.” — joked to Lopez that, “when we were casting this thing I thought I was gonna lose my role out to you.” Added Meraz, “You’re the missing wolf pack member!” Taylor Lautner says it’s “definitely a possibility” that Lopez could join the pack. Stewart was more sure. “You totally could be,” she said. “We’ll get you in there,” Spencer promised.

Damn … yeah, he fits in nicely … werewolf tattoo and all. What do y’all think, does Mario Lopez look like a bona fide member of the Twilight wolf pack to you?

With all the hype surrounding hottie actors Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner in The Twilight Saga series of films, it’s easy to forget that there are other hotties to behold in the films as well. I’ve already taken notice of Kellan Lutz and today Boy Culture makes me take notice of Alex Meraz. Meraz plays one of the werewolves in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and has clearly been taking notes from Taylor Lautner about how to promote oneself … by losing one’s shirt:

Oh yes … there is quite a bit to see in these Twilight films … even if you could give two hoots about vampires and werewolves. After the jump, check out another sexy pic of Alex Meraz in the pages of People magazine …

Filming continues on the Vancouver, BC set of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and today we get to see a few photos of Peter Facinelli, the daddy vampire of the Cullen family, hanging out with Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier who make up the werewolf pack that is featured in both Eclipse and New Moon. In case you are unaware, Facinelli is the one who is practically glowing in the dark in these photos:

Since all the wolves are wearing matching robes, methinks they are shooting a shirtless scene and are all covered up in between takes. It’s been a long while since I’ve read Eclipse so I don’t really recall what part of the story this is but … I’m sure it’ll all come together in the end. These are fun pics and all but I think I’d much rather see more pics of Twilight star Kellan Lutz in the gym.

USA Today has our first look at the young men cast to portray the werewolf pack that is featured in the upcoming sequel film The Twilight Saga: New Moon … as you can see from this newly released promo photo, the guys are in full costume … which basically means that they are half-nekkid. We’ve seen the guys here on the blog before but never in such a revealing way … behold:

Step aside, aloof vampires with all your undead issues. The wolf pack is ready to howl. Unlike cold-blooded neck biters, these poster guys for animal magnetism are hot. So hot that their temperature runs a steady 108 degrees, as anyone who has read Stephenie Meyer’s series of gothic romances knows. That gives them a great excuse to doff their shirts on-screen and expose the physiques they’ve been pumping up for playing werewolves in The Twilight Saga:New Moon, the sequel to last year’s supernatural sensation, due Nov. 20. Four actors — Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier, all with Native American heritage — join Taylor Lautner, 17, who returns as a hairier, scarier Jacob Black. The plotline finds Jacob growing closer to a distraught Bella (Kristen Stewart) after her vampire beau, Edward, runs off. Among wolf pack job requirements: the ability to work half-naked no matter what the weather in the Vancouver, B.C., area, where the film has been shooting for several weeks. “It’s not pleasant for the actors,” says director Chris Weitz. “But they have all been good-natured. They show up on location in drenching, cold rain, and I say, ‘OK, off with the robes.’ ”

If Twilight is all about the vampires, then New Moon is all about the werewolves. But it saddens me that this new photo does not feature the top dog, as it were, Jacob Black (played by Taylor Lautner). I suspect the movie producers are going to keep his reveal underwraps for a while so that they can feature him all by himself. I know there is a lot of vamp love among Twilighters but I think the wolf boys deserve some attention of their own. After all, I don’t recall that any of the Cullen men get half-nekkid in any of the books … isn’t that reason enough to give a little love to Team Wolves?

Last week we saw the first photos of some of the actors that have been cast to play the Quileute characters in the Twilight sequel New Moon. Taylor Lauter, who plays Jacob Black, was spotted with his new co-stars Alex Meraz, Bronson Pelletier and Tyson Houseman having lunch with Twilight Saga: New Moon director Chris Weitz in Vancouver, Canada. Today we get to see Meraz out and about with two other actors hired to play Quileute characters — Chaske Spencer and Kiowa Gordon … behold:

Now, call me suspicious but don’t these guys look awfully styled to just be walking around town as if they don’t expect to be photographed? Each guy is wearing a different styled outfit and each seems too put together for a simple stroll in town. My guess is that these new actors may have been instructed to pay a visit to the film’s wardrobe stylist before they go out in public together just in case they get photographed by the paps (especially since they are new actors). I know it may sound a bit paranoid, but this sort of thing happens all the time. The movie producers are well aware that there is much demand to get photos of the castmembers in public … it would make sense for them to not only be aware of that fact but to take advantage of it as well. Again, not that this is a problem at all … but these pics really look to me like the guys are on a photoshoot rather than just randomly walking around in town. It’s a smart move. The Twilight Saga will most likely be a huge money-maker in the long run … it can’t hurt to maximize the potential every turn. What do y’all think … am I just inferring more than is actually there?

Chris Weitz, director of the upcoming movie The Twilight Saga: New Moon, was spied having a power lunch with a few new castmembers from this new film. Alex Meraz, Bronson Pelletier, Tyson Houseman and Taylor Lautner (who we already know will reprise his role as Jacob Black) joined Weitz for a bite to eat in Vancouver, Canada (where the film is currently in production) yesterday afternoon. It is being reported that the new castmembers, the ones who are playing Native American parts, are actually Native American themselves. Here are a few pics from yesterday’s summit … be warned, the following report may contain spoilers for those of you who have yet to read the book:

Summit Entertainment has brought on a cast of American Indian actors to star in the werewolf and vampire-themed “New Moon,” the sequel to “Twilight”. The studio has hired Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Tyson Houseman to form the ensemble Wolf Pack, who in Stephenie Meyer’s novel take the side of the humans in their fight against the evil breed of vampires. All five will make their big-screen debuts in the film. Taylor Lautner previously had been cast as Jacob Black, also a member of the Wolf Pack. Summit noted that all of the actors are of American Indian descent, with Sioux, Purepecha and Hualapai among the tribes represented. Meyer made the announcement on her Web site after weeks of rumors that director Chris Weitz was close to casting members of the Wolf Pack.

I understand that it was very important for the studio to hire Native American actors for these roles, which I think is a very smart move. Not only does hiring Native American actors give new opportunities to actors that may not get much work already but it will also give the film a level of authenticity. I’m pretty sure we won’t be seeing any of these young gents in any wolf costuming … that is, until the movie comes out in November … but it’s nice to see that they look like a handsome bunch. Do these guys look like the Quileute characters you envisioned from the book?
