The Twilight Effect

Although Twilight has gotten some mixed reviews, that hasn’t stopped people from speculating about its success - and the books too.

Publishing insiders are already saying that Stephenie Meyers’ Twilight series will make it big, maybe even outperforming the Harry Potter series. Especially now with the movie out!

Elizabeth Eulberg, publicist for the Twilight books, said “I think it will definitely bring a bigger audience. We just hope the people who haven’t read the books who see the movie will read them.”

She adds that sales have risen in the past few weeks with worldwide sales of the four books in the series reaching 25 million. The books are also printed in 37 languages!

Eulberg added that “For the past three years we’ve been steadily getting more fans, so when ‘Breaking Dawn’ came out [in August] it sold 1.3 million copies on the first day in the U.S.”

As for the book’s author, Meyer claims the idea came to her in a dream back in 2003. Just six months later she had written Twilight and signed a six-figure deal.

Wonder how much of that money she’s donated to her Mormon church and to the Yes on Prop H8te to promote lies????????????

But despite the books selling well, the flick is still not doing so well with the reviews.

Time Magazine added that while Twilight was not a masterpiece, it “rekindles the warmth of great Hollywood romances.”

Will U be watching Twilight?

Kiss Gets The Kiss Off

Rock band Kiss got the kiss off from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and they are none too pleased about it.

With their first album released in 1974, the band now easily officially fulfills the requirement for nomination - 25 years since an artists debut - but the rockers are nowhere to be seen on the ballot.

The always outspoken Gene Simmons said, “There are disco bands, rap bands, Yiddish folk song bands in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but not Kiss.” He added, “I believe we have more gold records in America than any other group, but it’s OK.”

Kiss lost the ballot to Metallica, rock guitarist Jeff Beck, and soul singer Bobby Womack. The final five - voted on by industry members - will be unveiled in January.

But we don’t think their campaign is going to go too well. Simmons signed off on his speech at the Billboard Touring Conference with a nice little jab at the Hall’s top officials.

“A lot of those guys on the board can go and get my sandwich when I want, and I mean that in the nicest way.”

What a graceful loser!

Sluttyienna Miller should get the award for horniest celebutard!

The girl needs a warm male’s body at her side at all times.

So, it’s been what, about a month since her break up with married oil heir Balthazar Getty and there’s already news that she’s already dating someone else!

A snitch told The London Paper that they spotted Slutty on a ’secret date’ with the scruffy and smelly Josh Hartnett at an exclusive East London bar.

American actor Josh, as y’all know, is in London for Rain Man. And he’s sick! Probably a result of getting too close to Slut Slut!

A source said, “They definitely looked like a couple - and a good looking one at that! At one point, they were holding hands across the table, but they quickly hid them underneath. They looked really cozy as they dined, gazing into each other’s eyes, smiling and laughing. They continued talking and drinking until very late into the evening - there was definitely a buzz in the air.”

Good job, Slutty!

Glad you found someone unattached to satisfy your needs!

That’s totally more like it.

A Meteor Hits Canada!

Did a meteor really hit Canada Thursday afternoon at about 5:30pm???

Many have reported and captured footage of a fireball shooting across the sky along with hearing a loud “bang” in Western Canada.

Officials say the meteor might not have actually touched ground.

Space educator Randy Atwood said, “There’s a very good chance it was what we call a bull’s eye, which is a meteorite crossing the sky at extremely quick velocity — very, very fast — and as it hits the atmosphere at about 400,000 feet, traveling at about 60 kilometres per second, this is the incredible light show that it creates.”

He added that the meteor was probably no bigger than a grapefruit! And it might have actually broken down into smaller pieces before hitting the ground or burning up before touching land.

Atwood added, “It was a beautiful show and some people might have thought it was just over the hill, and that it was the size of a house.”

Thankfully all of our Perezcious readers in Canada are safe.

Sam And Amy Sing The Cuppycake Song

Nov 21, 2008 Author: perezhilton | Filed under: Celebrity News

Remember Sam????

He’s cute little kid who made his claim to fame covering You’re My Honeybunch (The Cuppycake Song).

Well, he recently met up with Amy, the song’s original performer, for a brief interview.

Sadly, Sam suffers from a rare kidney condition - for which he takes steroids. The steroids have stunted his growth and complicated his weight.

After his “chubby” rendition of The Cuppycake Song, the producers of The Doctors reached out to Sam and his family to help him find an alternate treatment for his disease.

Soooooooo cute!

And also heartbreaking!

We hope they can find a solution for him too!

Click here to watch Sam and Amy do the song and chat for a bit.

Those winks get us every time!

Of Insanity And Orgasms: A Britney Story

Nov 21, 2008 Author: perezhilton | Filed under: Celebrity News

In a new interview with OK! UK, BritBrit talks about going crazy and having orgasms.

In trying to be successful, can you be over-ambitious?

Yes. I think I have that problem. I honestly do. I’m such a perfectionist sometimes. It has its good points, but then it has its bad points because you’re never satisfied.

I don’t think you should ever be completely satisfied as then you’re putting a limit on yourself. You should be happy with the person you are on the inside, but on the outside you should always be trying to strive for more.
And does that make you happy?

You end up driving yourself crazy because you’re never pleased with the finished project. You’re always like, “Well if I’d done it like this, then it probably would’ve been a lot better.”

Well that explains it!

She also compares eating chocolate to having an orgasm. Kind of.

Is chocolate an orgasmic feeling for you?

I said, “Sneezing is.” That’s all it was. I guess chocolate can be, though!

Oh, Britney!
