As though poor Rob Pattinson didn't have enough trouble keeping his young female fans at bay, now it appears he's a magnet for insatiable hordes of older women.
At least if you can rely on the merchants who are reporting a run on RPattz cardboard cutouts proclaiming the Nov. 20 coming of New Moon.
With Rob's security detail in Vancouver last reported at full throttle as the Twilight: Eclipse shoot winds down this week, there seems to be no stopping the ravenous image thieves in the U.S. Department store clerks are reporting the Cullen cut-outs are being pilfered by older women at a disturbing rate, reports the inestimable Limelife.com.
The website quotes a Nordstrom employee's outraged plaint: "We can't keep them in the store. People keep coming in and stealing Rob and Taylor! And it's usually middle-aged women."
It shows how desperate for Rob's attention they are. Imagine a woman, say 40 years old, darting from her walker long enough to nab a cardboard effigy of her favourite bloodsucker. Good times, tonight, granny!
Meanwhile, back in Canada, the flesh-and-blood Pattinson reportedly has girl problems with a certain 19-year-old, if we're to believe Britain's venerable OK! magazine, whose entitled exclamation mark precludes any doubt.

ROB-sessed Release Date Set
To mark the release date of ROB-sessed (out Nov 10). We thought we'd give you ladies something to drool over....
Click here for more details.
Just a week or so prior to the premiere of New Moon, this DVD will take fans inside the life of a British actor that has gone from relative obscurity to global fame in just over a year.
It's hard to determine how much information there could be on Pattinson, at this point in his young life, but it's safe to assume fans will be happy as long as his face is shown often.
That's certainly the case during the movie's official trailer.
Please be aware however, TwilightSparrow does not condone loud, girlish screaming, nor do we delight in the fact that Twilights star also happens to be seen as the worlds hottest mammal. Enjoy!

MTV Introduce Pumpkin Contest Finalist #1!
It seems everyones having a pumpkin contest nowadays. Unfortunately there are far too many for us to report on, but for this entry - we're willing to make an exception.
CHRISTIE: If I had the chance to describe my pumpkin to Robert Pattinson (assuming I could put more than two words together while looking at him!), I would tell him that it is my tribute to the wonderful job he has done in bringing Edward Cullen to life on screen, and a sign of my impatience as I am waiting for the release of "New Moon."
HC: How did you decide on that specific Robert look?
The amount of emotion he can portray in a single facial expression or a single word amazes me. Although I certainly do appreciate Robert's beauty when he is not in character, I really love Edward's look for "New Moon" over "Twilight," especially in the "New Moon" movie poster.
HC: If you could title your pumpkin what would you call it?
My personal tagline for "New Moon": When forever is no longer an option, how do you survive?"
MTV's #1 Finalist Christie, Jessup, Maryland created the masterpiece below. We here at Twilight Sparrow, were blown away with it, we just had to share it with you.
MTV went on further to interview Christie;
"HOLLYWOOD CRUSH: If you were to get the chance to describe your pumpkin to Robert Pattinson himself, what would you tell him about it?

We like to think you'll sit back and ponder that hard Twi-Fans.
Well done CHRISTIE!

The Movie Fanatic; Profile Chris Weitz
The Movie Fanatic, one of the very few websites to clue into the Twilight phenomena early on has a great article addressing the different hurdles that Chris Weitz faces as director. TMF always provides great analysis and more than the brief soundbite commentary.
“In a recent interview, it was noted that “Chris Weitz, who also writes and produces, sometimes with his brother Paul, had done a fantasy adaptation in 2007’s “The Golden Compass” and felt a connection to the material.” Also, there is one particular segment of the moviegoing public that Summit wants to impress – the male audience who have been lukewarm (another word might be hostile) in their reception of Twilight.
In this article, tMF will also attempt to find some answers to three specific questions: Can he make a difference and give the fans what they really want? Can he entice this ‘hostile’ group into watching New Moon? Can Weitz level the playing field between Taylor Lautner and the very popular Robert Pattinson?”

Bellas Truck Raising Money
The Twilight Parents Examiner has an interview with the owner of Bella’s truck from the Twilight movie.
“Sterling Biegart fits the image of a typical seventeen year old. She’s been involved in musical theater since she was six, she’s a responsible babysitter, and she has her college sights set on Yale or Julliard. But truthfully, she’s actually an old soul wrapped up in a Bella-aged body. And she’s about the luckiest girl around.
Sterling is the proud owner of Bella’s truck.”
Check it all out on Parents Examiner.

Twilight Makeup Hits The Stores
What Robert Pattinson is to Hollywood, “Twilight Beauty” will be to the makeup world. In other words, brace yourself for mass hysteria.
Stephenie Meyer’s book series and the “Twilight” film saga have inspired a range of beauty products.
You were probably as enraptured as I was by the vampires’ sparkly skin, flushed cheeks and juicy lips (especially Edward Cullen’s).
So it’s beyond fitting — and frankly, brilliant — that the phenomenon has spawned Twilight Beauty, which consists of two collections.
Creating the movie-tied makeup is Cristina Bartolucci, famous for her innovative beauty brand, DuWop. (Lip Venom ring a bell?)
Word is there will be a special “Twilight” edition of the cult-favorite lip plumper with one half of the tube’s vial’s contents resembling blood.
Better yet, the cast apparently wears the makeup in the second movie installment: “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” out November 20.
There’s two collections, LunaTwilight and Volturi, I’ll hit you with the highlights.
LunaTwilight is the more luxurious of the two offerings — the packaging is heartbreakingly gorgeous and the formulas are more
sophisticated than the alternate collection.
I hate to tease you with some of the the product names before they’re available, but let’s be honest, I can’t help myself and you can’t wait: “First Light Body Glow,” “Mortal Glow Blushing Creme” and Color Palettes in “Bella,” “Rosalie,” “Alice” and “Victoria.” (I can’t wait to see “Alice” — she was my favorite.)Volturi, the other Twilight Beauty collection, will strike a chord with those who’ve read the book.The Volturi is the most feared and powerful coven of vampires, and that same dark, exciting sensibility can be felt in its products.
The Volturi family crest appears on the packaging and some standouts include “Deity Body Lotion,” “Immortal Body Shimmer” and “Crown Mascara” (shown left).Everything I’ve seen can only be described as elegant and wicked.Twilight Beauty will be available on its own site: TwilightBeauty.com, which isn’t live yet and an official launch date for the products has not been announced (though, it looks like it will be timed around the movie’s release), so stay tuned.

Twilight Cast Like Family.
Peter Facinelli has said it's great being back with the Twilight cast because he sees them as "family".
The actor is reprising the role of Dr Carlisle Cullen in New Moon, the sequel to the vampire flick, and said "it was a lot of fun rejoining with the cast - it was like we hadn't even missed a day".
Peter, who stars alongside Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart in the films, went on: "It's really interesting because it's always been like a family."
Peter also revealed he's set to make the third film in the series.
"Eclipse we're shooting in the fall," he said. "If the fans come out for the second movie and third movie, hopefully we get to shoot the last book and complete the series. That would be phenomenal."

He said: "You put the make-up on, you put the contact lenses in, you look in the mirror. There's the character. We have different contact lenses that are going to 'pop' a little bit more"
