Robert Pattinson Tries to Remain a Mystery

Ready for another onslaught of Robert Pattinson? With Eclipse coming out on June 30, the reluctant star will likely be gracing the cover of magazines and making the media rounds in the very near future. For starters? He spoke to Great Britian’s The Daily Mirror this month. The interview didn’t elucidate anything particularly newsworthy or new about the actor, as Pattinson once again noted how scary life in the spotlight can be for him. “You start getting a bit paranoid,” Robert said . “Looking around when you’re walking down the street, in case you get mobbed by teenage girls… I spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to not be seen.” Fortunately for women everywhere, Pattinson hasn’t accomplished this goal. In an ideal world, “no one finds out where you’re staying,” Pattinson said. “If people aren’t following you, or outside a restaurant if you have dinner there… then it’s great.” As for the inevitable Kristen Stewart question? Robert was typically mum on the subject of his rumored girlfriend, simply saying: “It’s difficult either way. When the spotlight seems centered on you, the best thing is to remain as much of a mystery as you can.” Still, Pattinson is willing to let one piece of information slip – and it will make him even more beloved in the eyes of females around the world. He says: “I really like The Notebook .” Come on, man. That’s just not fair. Give other guys at least some chance!

L.E.P/ Bogus Boys Say New Tape ‘Represents The Streets Of Chicago’

L.E.P/ Bogus Boys Say New Tape ‘Represents The Streets Of Chicago’ By Shaheem Reid L.E.P/ Bogus Boys Photo: Bogus Boys This Week’s Main Pick Street Kings : L.E.P/ Bogus Boys Holding It Down For : Chicago Mixtape : Don’t Feed Da Killaz, Vol. 3 Real Spit : The Low End Professionals, L.E.P for short, have been wreaking havoc in Chicago’s underground-rap scene for over a decade. The respect that the Count, Moonie and the under-house-arrest Bigg Rugg have in the streets translates much farther than the Windy City. The night the Mixtape Daily cameras caught up with Count and Moonie, they were partying with Wale, and the group has recorded with the likes of Jim Jones and Young Dro over the years. For the Bogus Boys, though, industry co-signs are cool, but they care most about the love in the ‘hood. “We been together 12 years,” Count said, standing next to Moonie in front of the now-closed (but still legendary) Cabrini-Green projects. “We been knowing each other for a long time. This is my brother. We had a couple of stop-and-go’s, but we been doing this music for some time. We at our best right now.” Some members of the L.E.P crew have been killed in the street, others sent to prison, but the music hasn’t stopped. “The story needs to be told,” said Count, whose flow is reminiscent of Rakim’s. “Our streets are a little bit different from where y’all at. Y’all need to know about Chicago.” “Get in tune,” Moonie advised. “We’re gonna take y’all on a journey through the city. [The mixtape] represents the streets of Chicago. It’s something new. Something that hasn’t been touched on. That’s what we’re bringing to y’all. Real stuff. We embody the whole situation in Chicago, letting y’all know what’s going on.” Joints to Check For

By Brian Warmoth iPad Photo: Apple The first iPad reviews are in, and Apple’s biggest launch since the iPhone will likely command some epic lines when it lands in stores Saturday. Media nerds want it for the enlarged touch-screen interface; on-the-go business types will have their eyes on its portable work apps; and gamers have a whole new frontier to explore in the iPad App Store.

Anna Paquin Announces She’s Bisexual For Equality PSA

‘I’m bisexual, and I give a damn,’ actress declares in Give a Damn campaign. By MTV News Staff Anna Paquin Photo: Jordan Strauss/ WireImage Anna Paquin , the star of HBO vampire series “True Blood,” announced that she is bisexual as part of a videotaped public service announcement. “I’m bisexual, and I give a damn,” the actress says during the PSA, which she taped on January 30 as part of the True Colors Fund’s Give a Damn campaign that features celebrities encouraging people to work for the advancement of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality. According to RadarOnline.com , organizers were apparently unaware that Paquin was going to make the bisexuality declaration. The Give a Damn campaign is set to kick off on Thursday (April 1) and a series of videos featuring other celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, Elton John, Cynthia Nixon, Clay Aiken, Whoopi Goldberg, Wanda Sykes, Jason Mraz, Mya, Sharon and Kelly Osbourne and True Colors Fund co-founder Cyndi Lauper. “One hate crime is committed approximately every hour of every day in this country,” Paquin says in the spot, as other celebs chime in with facts and calls to action. “Imagine walking down the street and wondering if this is the day you’ll get beaten up or even killed, simply because of who you are,” Elton John says. Adds Mraz, “It is time for things to change!” Paquin, 27, got engaged to her “True Blood” co-star Stephen Moyer last August. On the small screen, Paquin plays telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who falls for Moyer’s brooding vampire, Bill Compton. The third season of the sexually charged drama is set to debut on June 13. When MTV News caught up with Moyer recently, he was tight-lipped about story developments between Sookie and Bill . “I don’t want to give anything away!” he said.

LL Cool J Says He Was ‘Misrepresented’ In Ads For Sarah Palin’s New Show

‘Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else,’ LL tweets about commercials for ‘Real American Stories.’ By Shaheem Reid LL Cool J Photo: Johnny Nunez/ WireImage LL Cool J took to his Twitter account to make it clear that despite the advertisements that make it seem otherwise, he is not going to appear on Sarah Palin’s “Real American Stories” show, set to debut on the Fox News Channel on Thursday (April 1). “Fox lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else & are misrepresenting to the public in order to promote Sarah Palin’s Show. WOW,” Uncle L tweeted . LL and Toby Keith were among the celebrities appearing in an advertisement for the new show that highlights individuals who have triumphed over adversity. On Wednesday, Cool J’s camp released a statement to MTV News further clarifying the rap legend’s stance. “Contrary to what was reported, LL Cool J was never scheduled to be a guest on ‘Real American Stories’ with Sarah Palin this week. The show had planned to use an interview from 2008 that was being repurposed without LL’s permission. This statement is not a reflection of any feelings LL has toward Fox News or Ms. Palin, whom he has never met, rather a clarification of what we have seen published in the media.” In a statement sent to the New York Times , Fox News said they decided to edit LL out of the show. “‘Real American Stories’ features uplifting tales about overcoming adversity and we believe Mr. Smith’s interview fit that criteria,” Fox said in the statement. “However, as it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.” Will you watch Sarah Palin’s new show?

Kristin Cavallari Needs To Be Hosed Down

Here’s The Hills hottie Kristin Cavallari out the other day looking somewhat chilly in the cool California spring weather. I say that because I think I see a hint o’ nipple. Unfortunately a hint doesn’t quite do it for me anymore. Would it be frown upon to hire homeless people to pour cold water on hot celebrities in white t-shirts? It’s a win win situation, the homeless dude gets money for crack food, we all get to see Kristin in her very own one woman wet t-shirt contest in the middle of the street and she gets a little more exposure. Everyone’s a winner.
