Chelsea Handler worries about facing all the celebrities she has offended at the VMAs. One of them: Rob!!
Chelsea Handler is a notorious offender. Offender of celebrities great -- Robert Pattinson -- and small -- Snooki. (And by small, we mean tiny in size, of course!) So what's she going to do when she hosts the 2010 MTV VMAs? Have a few vodka tonics and hope for the best? Go out there guns blazing? In her new VMA promos, she faces the music. And that music happens to be a seating chart of all of the VMA stars in the audience that night. And it's not looking good. Chelsea's offended them all. Except for one man. And that man is Kid Rock... Well, at least for now.

MTV Hollywood Crush Spotlights “Eclipse” This Week
There’s no denying vampires and werewolves have enraptured us of late. But society’s interest in the supernatural is nothing new. Cinematic history is chock full of flicks focusing on otherworldly beings. With more than a year (!!) until our favorite vampire franchise returns with “Breaking Dawn,” we’re passing the time by revisiting movies featuring creatures that go Bump In The Night or BITN (get it, bitten?)
September Is BITN By Vampires!
This week we’re taking a look at “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” the most recent, most popular and easily the most vampire-y of the “Twilight” films.
Directed by: David Slade
Starring: Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner
Release date: June 30, 2010
Synopsis: Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings, and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob—knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella is confronted with the most important decision of her life: to become a vampire or to remain human.
Representation of vampires: These are definitely not your traditional vampires. They don’t have fangs, wooden stakes and holy water don’t kill them, they don’t sleep in coffins, and the only bad side effect of going out into the sunlight is that they sparkle. Still, David Slade’s take on “Eclipse” was markedly darker than the two previous installments of “The Twilight Saga,” and the side story of bad vamps Riley, Victoria and the newborns is much more traditional than most people give the film credit for. That opening sequence gives us chills every time!
Good or evil: This one’s tough, because the vamps in “Eclipse” are both the good guys and the bad guys. In “The Twilight Saga,” vampires have the choice to be good or bad. The vampire clan who our heroine Bella hangs out with, the Cullens, are definitely the good guys, but, in “Eclipse” especially, there are plenty of bad vampires coming after them.
Why we’re BITN: The obvious reason is because “Eclipse” marks the highest level of tension in the Bella-Edward-Jacob love triangle, but the reason “Eclipse” is the “Twilight” film we chose for this week’s BITN is because it definitely has our favorite of the films’ representations of vampires. Riley’s transformation and control of the newborns, and subsequently his manipulation by Victoria, makes us actually think for the first time in these films that vampires are something to be afraid of, as well as to swoon over. Plus, that final battle sequence is just too awesome for words.
Is “Eclipse” in your ranks of favorite vampire movies?
“Eclipse” Should Hit $300M in 2 Weeks
UPDATE THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2:
Here is a mid-week box office update. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse sits at #22 on the charts. At 476 locations, it took in another $59,749 on Monday for a per theater average of $125 and a decrease of 60% from Sunday, $60,019 on Tuesday for a per theater average of $126 and a 0.9% increase from Monday, and $53,347 on Wednesday for a per theater average of $112 and an 11.1% decrease from Tuesday. This adds up to a cumulative domestic total of $298,200,597 after 64 days in release. Adding in the latest verifiable overseas returns of $380.6M gives Eclipse a current worldwide total of $678,800,597.
Theater counts for the week of Friday, September 3 – Thursday, September 8 reflect a 16.8% decrease of 80 for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse to 396 locations, dropping it from #22 to #23.
For those comparing the films in The Twilight Saga, after 64 days New Moon had taken in $292,793,194. Eclipse is now at $298,200,597. Both films hit the $250M mark on the 16th day. The total domestic gross for New Moon was $296,623,634. Eclipse has now broken that total by $1,576,963. The film is now within striking distance of the elusive $300M mark. It needs about $1.8M to get to that number. It took New Moon 22 more days to earn an additional $1.9M after its 64th day, and Eclipse is clearly doing better. On the other hand, New Moon dropped to 444 theaters on its 64th day while Eclipse drops to 396 locations tomorrow. Still, even after New Moon’s theater count had dropped to 352 (after 70 days) it still went on to take in another $3.24M. Therefore, it should take no more than about two weeks for Eclipse to earn another $1.8M and pass $300M.
Keeping track of records, the film with the least number of days to reach $250M was The Dark Knight, which hit $261,847,503 after eight days. New Moon is in 13th place, having taken 16 days to reach $251,530,186. Eclipse lands just behind it in 14th place, taking 16 days to reach $251,371,417. This puts the film ahead of Shrek the Third, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and Iron Man 2, which all took 17 days to hit $250M.
So far, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse has set all-time box office records for Opening Wednesdays, Single Day Wednesday Gross (non-adjusted), and Single Day Wednesday Gross (adjusted for inflation). It is in second place for Opening Day Gross, Single Day Gross, and Non-Opening Thursday Gross. Release records include Widest Releases, Widest Independent Releases, Widest Opening Independent Releases, Widest PG-13 Rated Openings, and Widest PG-13 Rated Releases.
There’s been quite a bit of discussion online regarding the film’s box office success. In particular, I wonder about the fairness of comparing the Twilight films against each other. Despite the fact that Eclipse is about to pass New Moon in domestic totals, the validity of judging one against the other is questionable given their strikingly different release schedules. As I’ve been saying since it opened, the idea was not to compete against or beat New Moon’s early numbers. That may be a goal of some people but the idea is to make money, and maybe set some records in the process.
First, remember that the film’s opening weekend started on a Wednesday. There is no way that a “weekend” that begins on a Wednesday can be compared to a “normal” 3-day weekend (when New Moon opened). So any comparison between the two based on how many “weekends” it’s been out simply isn’t valid. Next, look at the time of year the two films were released. New Moon came out during the Thanksgiving-Christmas holiday season. It’s a big time of year for Hollywood but still doesn’t compare to summer, when they put out their “tentpole” films — the potential blockbusters that will keep the studios in the black for another year. The competition is much more fierce beginning Memorial Day weekend through the 4th of July. It’s simply a different marketplace.
Is Summit happy with the film’s box office returns? I don’t know but I’m fairly sure they must be. Again, the goal was not to “beat New Moon.” That may be something the press or some others will latch on to but it may not be a fair comparison. It was very easy to compare Twilight to New Moon since they opened at the same time one year apart. Not so much New Moon to Eclipse. I think it’s wise to just see how the film does over time in its own right.
Now wouldn’t be a bad time to start planning for your DVD release parties. The street dates for Twilight and New Moon were both on day 121 of their theatrical runs (Saturdays). Following that line of thinking, Eclipse’s 121st day will be October 28th, a Thursday. The following Saturday would be October 30th — Halloween weekend. On the other hand, sources have told me that Summit is planning for a holiday season release — some say November while others say Christmas time.

Sara Gruen, Water For Elephants' Author, Talks About Filming A Cameo
Sara Gruen gets a star turn in the film version of her novel Water for Elephants, now in post-production.
She got to meet stars Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon. Just as thrilling was being lifted into the air by Tai the elephant, who depicts circus elephant Rosie in the movie, due April 15.
"Her trainer told me to hug her trunk," says Gruen, "so I did, and suddenly I was 7 feet in the air. She gave me many kisses, probably because I always carry mints for my horses, so I was slipping her candy every time I got a chance."
Gruen, her husband and three sons were cast as extras in a scene in which the circus performers and animals parade down the streets in Weehawken, N.J.
"We retook that scene I think 18 times," Gruen recalls. "I'm the one Rob Pattinson (who plays veterinarian Jacob Jankowski) elbows past and says, 'Excuse me, ma'am' to."
As for Christoph Waltz, who plays an abusive animal trainer, Gruen says: "I watched a scene being filmed when he was 'beating' Rosie. From the side of the road, it was very obvious that he wasn't going anywhere near her, but from behind the bank of monitors, it was extremely convincing."

But the base of the of the production, composed of more than 150 people, will arrive on the 15th to the city, where they will remain for about a month.
Among the leaders and owners of hotel and restaurant sectors there is great secrecy surrounding this, and they comment they do not have confirmation yet, but in the city they speak about nothing else in gas stations, convenience stores, candy outlets regional wineries and other establishments, the film has raised great expectations.
"We understand that most people will arrive here on September 15, and if over 150 people between producers, actors, technicians, and all other elements that participate in the filming and of course we have a great hope for major spills that permeate so important in many businesses and establishments, " a well known businessman told VANGUARDIA later "I do not know why they walk with so much mystery, because it is a fact that the producers have already confirmed their base here assembled, and hence are moved daily to different locations, but what is a fact, that day is coming, and 18 will be giving the 'claquetazo' to mark the commencement of filming, "explained the informant.
He said the project is important not only for financial spills, but for the projection of Parras internationally.
"For to know the quality of management, because I have understood to be a very prestigious Brazilian director, and actors are very significant, this will cause many people come," he said, "journalists also clear from several countries, and spills becomes much more important, and of course, also receive our dear projection Magic Town"
