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 …

Xavier Samuel, the Aussie actor who is about to break into the world of Twilight adoration as the newest hottie vamp on the block in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (due out in theaters on June 30), is featured in the new issue of Interview magazine. Samuel was interviewed by his Eclipse co-star (and fictional vampire maker) Bryce Dallas Howard (who plays vampire Victoria) and is lookin’ pretty good in this accompanying photospread … behold:

BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD: So now that you’re almost on the other side with Eclipse, how has everything been for you? It’s all been a little wild, right?
XAVIER SAMUEL: Yeah, it has. It’s kind of like being struck by lightning in a way, because it all seems so improbable.

HOWARD: Eclipse is your first American film.
SAMUEL: It is. I’ve been doing American auditions for a while, and it always felt sort of like sending these audition tapes off into the ether. So just hearing anything back from anyone was kind of startling.

HOWARD: When we were shooting Eclipse, it was amazing for me to see how the girls all went berserk over you. These girls were totally losing their minds—and much like everyone else in the cast who experiences those sorts of things, you dealt with it really graciously and wonderfully. Were you at all startled by that?
SAMUEL: I mean, it’s kind of bizarre, isn’t it? Having that kind of attention. I’m not under the microscope in the same fashion that a lot of the other cast members are, so I think I can slide under the radar a little bit more, but getting any attention at all is completely new for me.

HOWARD: Well, it’s been interesting to see how these young women have responded to you and your hair and your accent.
SAMUEL: My hair and my accent are sort of my main assets.

For those of you still interested in what the lad has to say about, well, whatever … you can read the rest of his Interview interview HERE. I, on the other hand, plan to just focus on these photos … despite all the clothing, they are much more interesting to me than the banal back and forth with BDH.

There’s a new vampire on the Twilight block and his name is Riley … in the upcoming sequel film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Riley is played by newcomer Xavier Samuel (who also has a new movie titled Anonymous which is about to be released in theaters). You may recall that we’ve previously seen photos of Xavier filming scenes for Eclipse in Vancouver, British Columbia with co-star Bryce Dallas Howard (who has been cast to play vampire Victoria in the film) as well as photos of Xavier just hangin’ out in Vancouver in between filming days. Today we get to see a few photos of Xavier Samuel in the pages of the new issue of GQ magazine modeling a few affordable suits as well as some excerpts from his short interview with the mag:

You’re on the poster for the new Twilight film, Eclipse. How did this happen?
I did the audition from Sydney. I put the audition down on tape and sent it over.

Actors are always putting themselves on tape. But they never actually get the role that way!
I’ve been doing that for quite a while—doing these auditions from Australia and sending them out. I don’t know whose desk they land on, or if anyone even watches them. To hear back was a surprise. I flew to Vancouver on a maybe. It was me and four other guys. And I was shooting before I knew it.

Were you a fan of the Twilight series? Tell the truth.
I watched the first film on the plane, on the way over to Vancouver. Then I went straight to the bookstore.

Funny. You play Riley, a hungry newborn vampire out on a rampage. Full disclosure: I read the book, and Riley’s only on one page.
Yes, I was flipping through the book, thinking: Where’s Riley? He’s whittled down to one line. But in the film, we venture into the world of Riley and watch him assembling this newborn army. It’s more action-packed. And it gives me something more to do, thankfully.

Do you get to inflict much damage on the world?
There was no neck biting. I threw a vampire off of a burning car. I also threw a massive log with one hand. The log was attached to a hydraulic system. It made me look really strong.

Is it hard to be the new kid in a franchise like this?
It is a bit like the first day of school. But I felt like part of the family.

Most of your scenes are with Bryce Dallas Howard—who plays the villain, Victoria. She was also new to the Twilight family. Did that help?
We bonded quite early. We just kind of hit it off from the very beginning, rehearsed a lot of stuff, and talked about this almost Lady Macbeth kind of relationship.

You’re intellectualizing Twilight.
You see that Shakespeare reference I just made? [laughs] But she manipulates him in that way.

I’m impressed. How was the green-screen work? Obviously you’re not fighting wolves.
The director would yell Action! and this guy puts a stick in your face. That stick is the wolf. They didn’t teach that at drama school. I must have been sick that day.

Considering the way rabid Twilight fans like to “eat up” new manflesh in these Twilight films, I’m thinking Xavier is about to win himself a whole slew of new fans. I hope the poor lad is ready for all of that love. At least we know the boy can dress … he looks pretty good in this suit. After the jump, check out a couple more photos from Xavier‘s GQ photospread …

VMan magazine is celebrating Hollywood’s Hottest Men in their upcoming new issue (due on newsstands on April 20) and today we get to preview their picks for the 5 Hottest Men in Hollywood right now. Front and center is Twilight heartthrob, new Calvin Klein underwear model and all-around hunk Kellan Lutz:

Kellan was photographed for the mag by Amanda de Cadenet and is joined by fellow Hot Men in Hollywood Matthew Bomer (who stars on USA networks’s White Collar, photographed by Doug Inglish), Noah Mills (who will play Samantha‘s new toyboy in Sex and the City 2, photographed by Mark Abrahams), Xavier Samuel (who plays the new bad boy vamp on the block in The Twilight Saga Eclipse, photographed by Doug Inglish) and Ryan Kwanten (who plays hottie Jason Stackhouse in True Blood, also photographed by Doug Inglish). After the jump, check out the rest of the photos from this VMan photospread …

Last week we got our first look at new promo stills from the upcoming sequel film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and today, by way of Pink reader Stef, we get to see another promo still released from the film. As you may recall, Bryce Dallas Howard was hired to replace Rachelle Lefevre (who was unceremoniously fired from the role) in the role of vampire Victoria in Eclipse and last August we saw the first photos of Bryce on set as Victoria. This new promo still gives us a better look at the new Victoria as she and vampire Riley (played by Xavier Samuel) try to hurt poor, sweet Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson):

Yeah … I don’t like it. I hate that Bryce has been cast as Victoria … I miss Rachelle. I’m certain die hard Twilighters will squeal with glee at the sight of this new still from the film but … not me. GRRR.

Bryce Dallas Howard officially stepped into the role of the evil vampire Victoria as filming got underway in Vancouver, BC on the set of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Having gotten the role after the former Victoria actress – Rachelle Lefevre – was fired by Summit Entertainment last month, Bryce and her co-star Xavier Samuel (who plays Victoria‘s minion vampire Riley in the film) got down to biz last night filming a steamy kissing scene:

Any last ditch efforts to allow Lefevre to step back into the role of Victoria are now completely dead, as if a stake was driven thru the heart of hope itself. I’m not sure how I feel about this frizzy wig that BDH has got goin’ on … but, well, she has to look like Victoria even tho Summit got rid of a perfectly good actress who actually looks like Victoria. I guess we’ll see how all of this turns out … but it’s officially on now. There’s not turning back … BDH is in the Twilight hiz.

Here are a few photos of the B-Lister castmembers of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse who are all settling down and making themselves at home in Vancouver, BC where their film is currently in production. Jackson Rathbone has put his music career on hold to be in town for filming and Ashley Greene managed to wrench herself away from new BFF Vanessa Hudgens long enough so that she could walk her little pooch. Kellan Lutz went shopping at Zara and Xavier Samuel was just out lookin’ cute … behold:

It looks like they’re everywhere, y’all! There haven’t been any new sightings of main stars Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and/or Robert Pattinson to report … one presumes they were bizzy actually working on the film. Nonetheless, everyone will be working sooner or later so that they can continue to bring the Twilightness to the hungry masses. If you are in Vancouver, be on the look out … you never know when YOU might run into a real life Twilighter.

Robert Pattinson became a massive heartthrob when Twilight hit theaters and Taylor Lautner is lookin’ to become a heartthrob with the release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon this November so who’s gonna be the emerging heartthrob from The Twilight Saga: Eclipse which has just begun production in Vancouver, BC? Personally, I got my sights set on newcomer Xavier Samuel who will portray the vampire Riley (plaything for the villainous Victoria) in the third Twilight film. Sure, his part in the film isn’t all that prominent but Xavier does have that boy next door look about him that is bound to set hearts all a-twitter. Here are a couple pics of the lad stepping out in Vancouver this weekend to pick up a cup of joe all by his lonesome:

This guy reminds me so much of Hunter Parrish (Weeds) that I thought they were the same person for some time. Something tells me that the exposure that Xavier will get from appearing in a Twilight film will do much to get him more work in the future. He’s a cutie … he should fit in well with the other Twilight hotties roaming the streets of Vancouver these days.

Now that all the principal castmembers of the newest sequel film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse have made their way to Vancouver, BC to begin production it’s time for the work to get underway … but before the grueling grind of movie making can get started, the assembled castmates – led by Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner — gathered for a fun sushi dinner party at a place called Miko Sushi in downtown Vancouver:

And so … the party officially gets underway. I presume the kiddies are hard at work on the movie starting today and will be hard at work for the weeks to come. I’m sure we’ll be seeing more pics of the cast chillin’ in Vancouver as production continues.

Early in the week we saw photos of the Twilight B-List make their way to Vancouver, BC to begin production on The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and they were followed by star Taylor Lautner a couple of days later … today we get to see photos of Taylor chillin’ with the B-Listers (including Kellan Lutz, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jackson Rathbone and Xavier Samuel) at an impromptu get-together in Vancouver a couple of nights ago:

And so it begins … as you can see in the Kellan photo, new castmember Bryce Dallas Howard is standing next to Ashley Greene … she must be trying to ingratiate herself to the rest of the cast, which is smart. It looks like Taylor is ruling the roost with the other castmates, which is a bit different than the way the pecking order was the last time. Taylor is lucky he got to keep his role as Jacob Black cuz, as we learned from the firing of Rachelle Lefevre, any one in the Twilight cast is expendable. Now that he’s kept the role that has elevated him to one of the main stars of the film franchise, Taylor looks much much happier these days ;) I mistakenly mentioned that Robert Pattinson made his way to Vancouver with the rest of the cast (well, he is still “on his way”, he just hasn’t arrived yet and is still in Los Angeles) … so until he and/or Kristen Stewart get into town, Taylor is top dog amongst the Twilights in Vancouver. Not bad, pup.
