Oprah Winfrey revealed on Friday that the stars of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” will be coming to Chicago next month to tape an episode of her show. The announcement came at the end of her interview with “Twilight” actress Dakota Fanning, via skype.

“Dakota, we’ll see you in Chicago on Thursday, May 13,” Winfrey said. “We’ll have all the other big ‘Twilight’ stars right here too. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner all will be here. Tune in for a ‘Twilight’ show.”

“Eclipse,” the third film in the “Twilight” franchise, hits theaters June 30. The previous film, “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” pulled in $140.7 million during its opening weekend last November.

On March 27th, Robert Pattinson arrived in Budapest with the Bel Ami film crew. Of course Cosmo didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to see him. We tried to discover how the 23 year-old actor was able to become so famous in such a short amount of time.

The Price of Close Proximity

It’s 11am on a Tuesday. From a Hungarian Pattinson fansite, I was able to find out the super-secret information that is today’s location. It is staggering how well-informed the site’s administrators are: they knew in advance when Rob would be arriving to Hungary as if they were a secret agency. They’re like spies: they have people at the airport, the hotels and even in the crew.

Szabadság Tér (Freedom Square) is full of starry-eyed girls clutching their cameras and their Twilight books. Everyone’s staring fixedly at an entryway next to an Italian restaurant: it seems like filming is taking place behind the gate covered by a black curtain. I can’t see much from the other side of the road, so I decide to head to the terrace to see if I can sit down at a table. A moody waiter and a guard in a neon jacket blocks my path: “Paying customers only, no gawking.” Thanks for the polite greeting, buddy! A girl calls me over: she says it’s worth ordering something because she was able to watch them filming from a meter away as she was seated at the table closest to the entryway. She recounts all the rules: if you only buy a drink, you can also sit at the farthest tables, if your order is under 2000Ft (note: that’s about 10 dollars) you get seated in the middle, but if you order a hefty lunch (and leave them half your monthly salary in exchange for an entire ox and a bathtub’s worth of gazpacho) you will be able to see Pattinson from very close up. I am not quite determined enough for this, so I head back into the crowd.

Twilight hotties Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are rarely seen together and have never officially confirmed they are a couple, but the rumour mill has gone into overdrive that the blood-sucking favourites are about to take the plunge and get married.

The latest reports suggest that Robert has proposed to Kristen “countless times”.

An alleged source close to the couple (there are a lot of these sources about) told the National Enquirer that the 23-year-old Brit is desperate to wed his Twilight co-star.

They said: “Rob is so love with Kristen, he has proposed to her countless times already.

“He’s just waiting for her to say yes.”

The source added: “They believe they’re soul mates and want to be together forever. They’re just really happy they’ve found each other.”

After being silent about the Robert Pattinson-Kristen Stewart love life issue, Kristen Stewart finally speak up about her love life.

In an interview with the News of the World newspaper, Kristen Stewart said she is in love with her co-star Robert Pattinson. The 20-year old actress stated hundreds of reasons why she fell in love with Robert Pattinson.

Kristen Stewart said she loves Robert Pattinson because his character is unique, and she found him special. She said the actor is a bit childish, but always tries to be the best.

Kristen Stewart also added that Robert Pattinson’s British looks, good height, and philosophical appearance made him sexy “in a tortured artist way”.

According to Twilight Official twitter, next friday on April 23, 2010, watch Oprah show for the exclusive debut of the Final ‘Eclipse’ trailer.

Courtney Love has two men in mind to possibly play her late husband, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, on the big screen — but neither of them are “Twilight” superstar Robert Pattinson.

“Isn’t that so stupid, who would cast him? That’s just wrong, no offence (to Pattinson),” Courtney told the Canadian Press after rumors surfaced out of the UK that she was eyeing the “Twilight” gent for the role in the upcoming Cobain biopic, which Courtney will executive produce.

“I watched the ‘Twilight’ stuff very, very recently and I get it, it resonates with the teenaged girl in me, I understand epic love of that nature; I write about it all the time,” she added. “But isn’t that silly?”

‘Twilight’ star Robert Pattinson has said that he is not a “hunk” and therefore cannot live up to the media hype surrounding him.

According to Showbiz Spy, the actor said: “I can never live up to the image that the media have created, I am not that ‘hunk’.”

“Besides that there is always the fear that women only want to date me because I’m famous, and with a little bad luck they will go straight to the gossip press afterward.”
