Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart Land In L.A. Together

The ‘Twilight’ stars spark more romance rumors as they’re photographed leaving airport. By Jocelyn Vena Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson arrive at LAX together on Tuesday Photo: Kevin Perkins/ Pacificcoastnews.com Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were recently spotted together , reportedly getting cozy and kissing, in Montreal, where Stewart is shooting “On the Road.” And now the pair has been seen at the airport in Los Angeles. The two landed together at LAX on Tuesday . In a number of shots taken of the “Twilight” stars, Stewart, wearing a flannel top, sunglasses and jeans, is seen walking steps ahead of Pattinson, who is wearing a t-shirt, jacket, army green pants, a cap and sunglasses. He is also seen carrying his guitar. The two then walked together to a car, where Stewart proceeded to flip the paparazzi off. Stewart and Pattinson are set to film the two-part “Breaking Dawn,” the final installments of “The Twilight Saga,” later this year. They have always been plagued by talk of an off-screen romance, though neither has confirmed or denied the rumors outright. Photos have sporadically been taken of the two in seemingly romantic situations. They were seen nuzzling at a Kings of Leon concert last summer and then, while out and about promoting “New Moon” last November, the duo was caught holding hands walking through, of all places, the airport. “I probably would’ve answered it if people hadn’t made such a big deal about it,” Stewart has said about the romance rumors. “But I’m not going to give the fiending an answer. I know that people are really funny about ‘Well, you chose to be an actor, why don’t you just f—ing give your whole life away?! Can I have your firstborn child?’ ” While Pattinson has claimed that “we have gotten better at hiding over the last year,” these photos will surely have fans wondering what the real deal is with the two stars. For her part, Stewart once said, “They just make up a story to go along with the pictures. If they never get the picture, there’s no story. We are just good hiders now.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .

New Canadian Study Claims Helmet Laws Don’t Affect Cycling Ridership Numbers

Posted on August 12, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

From The Moederfiets or Motherbike Canada’s ten provinces have varying rules about bicycle helmets; some make them mandatory, some mandatory for those under 18 years old, and some with no legislation. It makes for an interesting study on The effects of provincial bicycle helmet legislation on helmet use and bicycle ridership in Canada . While only the abstract is available, one of the authors told the University of Manitoba News: “Contrary to popular belief, provincial helmet legislation does not cause people to c… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Miley Cyrus: I Want to Be a Role Model

Posted on August 5, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For Miley Cyrus, it’s the end of an era. No, we aren’t referring to the time in her life when she wore pants and didn’t look ridiculous each time she took the stage. Instead, we’re paraphrasing the singer herself in a recent interview with The Montreal Gazette . Cyrus spoke to the newspaper and explained her decision to end Hannah Montana after this season: “You don’t want it to grow up too much, where the younger audience feel they can’t watch the show anymore. But also, [don’t] go backwards and make it so young that you lose the older fans that you have. It’s just kind of come to a point where there’s not much more we could do with [the show].” Miley is focusing on her career as an adult actress , a transformation she understands isn’t easy to take for many fans. “I want to be a role model and have people look up to me, but this also doesn’t mean that I am not going to live the way that I want to live,” she said. “I’m going to grow up at some point, and I’ve been always honest about that.” Just so you know, Miles, wearing skimpy clothing on stage and pretending to make out with female dancers is NOT the sign of a grown-up. These are the actions of an immature child desperate for attention.

Lady Gaga Overtakes Obama On Facebook: Fans Weigh In!

Posted on July 7, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘Her outfits are sexy and she’s just crazy,’ Gaga’s fan explain about her Facebook popularity. By MTV News Staff Lady Gaga Photo: Derek Storm/ Splash News NEW YORK — It goes without saying that Lady Gaga’s little monsters are as devoted to her as she is to them. So when news broke that Gaga had surpassed President Barack Obama in her number of Facebook followers , it really wasn’t a surprise to the Little Monsters MTV News spoke with after her opening night show at Madison Square Garden in New York. “Lady Gaga definitely passed Obama with the number of fans on Facebook cause she’s awesome,” Cathy said. “Her outfits are sexy and she’s just crazy.” Laura proudly flaunted her membership to the Mother Monster fan club proclaiming, “I’m a fan of her Facebook page. I’m one of the 10 million — really!” And it seems a key to the success of beating out the president on Facebook is the fact that Gaga isn’t a politician. “When you get into politics things get very, very sketchy and I think that’s why she managed to gain more fans than he did,” Frankie explained. “Cause as risqu

Lady Gaga Fans Want Nicki Minaj, Marilyn Manson Duets On Next Album

Posted on July 1, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

But some fans hope she flies solo: ‘I want to see her work with no one but herself right now, because Gaga’s Gaga.’ By James Montgomery Lady Gaga Photo: Matt Harper/ MTV News These days, Lady Gaga will tell anyone who will listen that her new album is 100 percent finished, but that she won’t be putting it out until next year. In fact, earlier this week at the kickoff of the North American leg of her Monster Ball Tour in Montreal , she told her “little monsters” that she’s been listening to the new songs before taking the stage, and that she’s simply dying to let her fans hear them. Of course, she followed that statement up by unveiling “You and I,” a song that had leaked to YouTube a few days earlier, which only further whetted fans’ appetites. With so much brand-new Lady Gaga music so tantalizingly close to being released, we decided to ask LG’s fans what they’re expecting to hear on the album — and who, if anyone, they would like to see their Mother Monster collaborate with on the record. We heard a whole lot of the usual suspects — Britney Spears, Katy Perry (though we sort of doubt that will happen anytime soon ), Madonna, etc. — but the fans in Montreal also had some rather, uh, less-than-traditional suggestions, some of which would be positively amazing if they every came to fruition. “I would like to see Marilyn Manson with her,” Nicholas Vansorto said. “She has made a remix with him , but I would like to hear a song with Marilyn Manson and Lady Gaga. It would be amazing.” “Nicki Minaj!” Shareejah Daley suggested. “Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga would be crazy.” Of course, there are still those out there who think that Gaga’s at her best when she’s flying solo — and that’s exactly what they want to hear on her new album. “I know she’s not going to work with anybody — she’s not going to do any duets,” Genevieve Plante said. “I would like if she would continue on the way of ‘Telephone,’ or ‘Dance in the Dark,’ ‘Bad Romance,’ I would love that.” “I want to see her work with no one but herself right now, because Gaga’s Gaga,” Danik Renaud added. “So there shouldn’t be anyone [else] — other than Beyonc

The world’s most useless person of the week: Sarah Palin

Posted on June 30, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In a perfect world, Palin would have taken her rightful place as a historical footnote along with all the other has beens, also-rans, and never weres after the 2008 election. Maybe she could have extended her fifteen minutes into an early elimination in season 75 of Dancing with the Stars. link: http://www.bite.ca/bitedaily/2010/06/worlds-most-useless-person-of-the-week/ added by: romanswietlik

Scientists Confirm the First Direct Photo of an Exoplanet

Posted on June 30, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

See that little dot in the upper left corner? It is a planet orbiting a sun-like star. We know of a few hundred planets like this, but this one is special — we now know it's the first one to have its picture properly taken from Earth. The adaptive optics system at the Gemini Observatory in Hawaii snapped this photo in the infrared part of the light spectrum. It shows a hot, large Jupiter-like planet near a smallish sun-like star. It was actually found two years ago, but astronomers couldn't be sure they were really looking at a planetary system and not some lucky alignment of objects. Now they're sure. “Our new observations rule out this chance alignment possibility, and thus confirms that the planet and the star are related to each other,” says David Lafreni
