Some very lucky ladies got the chance to create some nice looking desserts for the private Twilight cast party on Saturday. Here’s a snippet of what they experienced, you can find the rest at their blog!

IMG_9757 We were on cloud 9 by this point and the whole experience couldn’t have been any better than what it was. The 100 Monkeys played an excellently long set and everyone grooved to their tunes the whole night. Jackson is really one of the nicest and down to earth celebrities we’ve ever met. Out of respect for all the wonderful people there, we didn’t take photos with the actors as this really was a night for everyone to unwind from all the hustle bustle of the movie world, but we did get a photo with the 100 Monkeys, after all they were the reason we were there in the first place!

According to Fanbolt and Lainey Gossip, Jackson and the rest of the 100 Monkeys hosted a private party on Saturday in honor of the half-way mark of filming a certain movie…

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were spotted out on the town together again this last weekend. The ‘Twilight’ pair were seen at Vancouver’s Players Chophouse attending a private party. The party featured a number of bands including Bleeding Horse, Express, Captain Dust, and 100 Monkeys.

Pattinson and Stewart arrived together but departed from the party separately. The famous duo was not alone at the event however, ‘Twilight’ co-star stars Ashley Greene, Xavier Samuel and Jackson Rathbone were also present.

Here’s what Lainey had to say, also attached the invitation to the party.

InvitationAnyway, the host wore a “Zorro” hat and 100 Monkeys were the last to perform. I’m told that the band’s tradition is to ask the audience for a word and use that word to make up a song…? Anyway, the word on Saturday was “polygamy”. So the ensuing chorus was:

I get what I need from you and you and you.

Cute.

It was a well guarded event, not too many leaks, and no paps. Other Twilight cast members present included Kellan Lutz, Julia Jones, Ashley Greene, Chaske Spencer, Elizabeth Reaser, Xavier Samuel, and oh yeah, those other two, the only two most people care about – Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson – were spotted smoking on the patio.

First off just wanted to say the site and all its pages have been officially converted over to wordpress, so urls to the pages have changed. There’s also a new system for the interact pages where instead of using the form to submit something, you can now just comment!

Secondly, check out this awesome new poster for Dread made especially for After Dark’s Horrorfest 4.

Dread, written and directed by DiBlasi and starring Jackson Rathbone (Twilight), Hanne Steen, Laura Donnelly, Jonathan Readwin and Shaun Evans, is a psychological thriller centering on three college students who study other people’s fears. As the study progresses, one of the students begins to seek salvation from his obsession by exploiting the terrors of his fellow participants.

Blogger Malicious Mandy attended the show last night as well and posted a nice little report from it on her blog.

mmI swear Jackson was wearing an outfit that his opening band had worn at Rickshaw (black with weird red tie?!?!) with a hat that reminded me of zorro and Ben G had a wig on to start. Jerad looked ever-sexy in a white shirt and black tie and Ben J was rockin it with shaggy heair and full beard. Uncle Larry was… well Uncle Larry – classic cool and smooth!

I always joke with Uncle Larry and he is a pretty funny guy.

They did their usual “pick a word and we will make a song for it” and the word was David Bowie! Jackson sang and part of the song talked about “you might be a fairy, you’re the king of trolls” I believe this was a reference to one of my fave movies ever LABYRINTH [where David Bowie is the Goblin King] I have a clip of it In my other post.
