This is not the first New Moon photo we’ve published from the movie, nor will it be the last. But it might be the most controversial. In the following shot from the Twilight sequel, Bella and Jacob sit across from each other in the car, recreating one of the most memorable scenes from Stephenie Meyer’s novel.
‘I guess it’s a good rumor, but I don’t think it’s true,’ director Brett Ratner says of Carey’s latest single.

‘I guess it’s a good rumor, but I don’t think it’s true,’ director Brett Ratner says of Carey’s latest single.
When Mariah Carey’s latest single “Obsessed” hit the airwaves, speculation swirled that the song is directed at Eminem as a response to his track “Bagpipes From Baghdad.” Fuel was added to that rumor’s fire after stills from the video were released — photos that seem to suggest that Carey dressed as Eminem for the clip.
But the video’s director, Brett Ratner, insists that as far as he knows, the song — off Carey’s latest album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, out next month — isn’t about Eminem.
“It’s not about Eminem — we weren’t like, ‘Let’s find an Eminem look-alike,’ ” he told MTV News about the stalker character in the video, which he originally wanted to be played by Ellen DeGeneres. “We weren’t talking to any Eminem [look-alikes]. I guess it’s a good rumor, but I don’t think it’s true. I don’t really know. I never asked her, but then when I recommended Ellen, that’s where she got the idea.”
Ratner had heard the Eminem rumors, but insisted that Carey never told him the song was penned about the MC. The look Mariah rocks in the video was devised simply as a way to hide Mariah’s lady assets.
“Mariah never talked to me about that,” he explained. “You know, Mariah … she’s like the most feminine girl you can imagine, so the more I covered up the less work I had to do on the transitions of changing back and forth. I kind of told the wardrobe guy, ‘Let’s bulk her up with layers and stuff’ — first of all, to hide her breasts, because they’re prominent, and to kind of make her more boyish. A b-boy made sense.”
Ratner, who worked with Mariah on many of her videos including last year’s “Touch My Body,” explained that the video was more inspired by two films rather than Eminem: his love for the classic Martin Scorsese flick “The King of Comedy” and Carey’s love for the Lindsay Lohan flick “Mean Girls.”
“It was inspired by a movie that I love called ‘King of Comedy,’ when Sandra Bernhard was stalking Jerry Lewis — and that’s why I wanted to move it to New York,” he said, adding, “Mariah loves ‘Mean Girls.’ I think it’s funny [when the stalker gets hit with the bus like in the film] …”
The director explained that so many of their collaborations show the funny side of Mariah Carey because they share a special bond and are “like kids — we love playing and role playing. We love telling stories and making movies.”
“She’s really like a kid. All her nuances … she’s like a big kid. That’s what I think we’re trying to capture. It doesn’t have to be all serious and sexy and everyone thinks she’s a big diva,” he said. “She’s very comfortable with me. And she’s so smart. Like Madonna, she knows where her light is … she’ll know if she’s out of focus.”

Next Monday is the traditional “The Men Tell All” episode of The Bachelorette , which precedes the show’s two-hour season finale the following week. Two guys who won’t be telling anything?
Today is Bastille Day, the French national holiday that celebrates the storming of the Bastille during the French Revolution, so we thought we’d post some pictures of our favorite French celebrities. What is it about the French that is so sexy? We think it might be the accent
On last night’s episode of The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris bid farewell to Reid Rosenthal, to the surprise of no one, keeping Ed Swiderski and Kiptyn Locke.
With the exception of Ed’s performance anxiety and the show’s hilarious ways of wording that situation, Monday’s episode was fairly vanilla and predictable.
But now that Reid’s gone and Kiptyn and Ed are the last men standing, The Bachelorette spoilers and rumor mill are starting to go haywire. Ready for this?
If our sources are to be believed …
Ed Swiderski proposes to Jillian Harris on The Bachelorette season finale in two weeks (next week is the useless “Men Tell All” filler clip show).
The “unexpected confession” on the seasonfinale is that Jillian’s just-vanquished “Honey Bear,” Reid Rosenthal, returns to say he loves her.
Kiptyn Locke has already been named the next star of The Bachelor.
Oh, and Ed may have a girlfriend back home.
Will Jillian choose Ed, Kiptyn, or a returning Reid?
First, Reid Rosenthal. You knew after DeAnna Pappas told The Bachelor‘s Jason Mesnick she “made a mistake” – this even before he chose Melissa Rycroft and dumped her for Molly Malaney – that The Bachelorettefinale would include some stunt.
Reid coming back to Hawaii to profess his love for Jillian Harris, which he just couldn’t quite do all season long and resulted in demise, makes perfect sense.
But is it too little, too late? Is it completely contrived? Probably. But is there a chance Reid can come back and steal this title in dramatic fashion? Sure.
It would certainly be a stunning (albeit blatantly scripted) conclusion that would fall short of the Jason-Molly-Melissa drama, but not by too much.
As for Kiptyn Locke, he has been rumored to have signed a deal to be the new star of The Bachelorfor some time now. Mr. Perfect certainly looks and acts the part, making some fans wonder if he was being groomed for this all along.
Finally, Ed Swiderski having a girlfriend in Chicago?
A shaky rumor, to be sure, but our man Reality Steve has never been wrong before, so his Bachelorettespoilers have to be taken semi-seriously …
Who will win The Bachelorette’s heart?
The blogger reports that Ed Swiderski left a female in Chicago high and dry – a girl who “without a doubt” was Ed’s girlfriend before he left for The Bachelorette.
This girl was under the assumption they were dating when he left to film the show. He came back to Chicago (after bailing on Jillian) then went AWOL again.
An email was sent asking “So I guess we’re seeing other people now.” Ed responded with “No, I just need to wait until this show is over.” This girlfriend of Ed’s is under the assumption they are together and she just has to wait out the show.
Shady stuff if that’s true. Wouldn’t it be wild if Wes Hayden drama was manufactured and it turned out to be Ed with a girlfriend back home – who came back to bite him? Or if all this were a red herring and Kiptyn Locke ended up winning?
