If You Take Enough Pictures of Twilight Actors, You’re Bound to Get Some Funny Ones

When I attend Twilight events, I tend to frantically take a ton of pictures in the fervent hope that I will somehow miraculously end up with a few gems. Basically, I try to compensate for my lack of skills and knowhow (and cheap camera) with volume. Believe me when I say that for every one good picture that I take, there are many, many more blurry and undecipherable ones. I also occasionally end up with some funny shots that I keep hidden away in the vault (that’s the super secret folder on my computer where I stash all my Twilight pictures so that my family will never realize that I have more pictures of Robert Pattinson than them). Until now.

As I anxiously count down the days until I race off to the LA Twilight convention and Breaking Dawn premiere, I’m opening the vault to share some pictures with you that, in all good conscience, probably should just be deleted. Sure some of them are kind of unflattering, but I know that you, my fellow Bite Packers, will accept them with the same good humor and shared love of all things Twilight in which they are offered. Enjoy!















You know there’s no shortage of pictures showcasing the many funny faces of Rob. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are entire websites dedicated to them. In honor of the many new ones yet to come during the Breaking Dawn press tour, here are a few of my favorites (sources unknown unless indicated on the photo):





And to send you off with a dreamy smile on your face, here’s a picture from this week’s Breaking Dawn fan event in Paris (borrowed from Robsessed). I could probably just stare at this picture of ParisRob for hours (and maybe I shall. I think that would be time well spent, don't you?)

A Look Back at the 2010 LA Twi-con Part 2: Do Your Best Bella!

In addition to heart palpitating appearances by Peter Facinelli and Kellan Lutz (you can check out the pictures and read part one of my post HERE), there were plenty of other Twilight cast members to keep us entertained over the three day weekend. And one thing you can always count on at a Twilight convention is that that there will be plenty of laughing.

One of the most fun guests that we’ve seen a few times now is Wolfpacker Alex Meraz (Paul). He was very charming and extremely good looking, not to mention quite a good sport.


We submited questions in writing ahead of time for the cast member Q&A sessions and my question for each person was to "do their best Bella." There had recently been a lot of discussion on Twitarded about Bella impressions and I figured what the heck. Of course, I put Twi-daughter Nicole's name down as the person asking (you didn’t think I’d put my own name down, did you?). Boy was I surprised when they chose "her" question for Alex to answer. I have to say, he was hysterical. He knew exactly what I was asking and did a fabulous Bella impression, very twitchy and blinky.




He also told a bunch of great stories and didn't hesitate to talk about his filming experiences and funny antedotes about fellow cast members.





Another “Wolf” that we saw was Kiowa Gordon (Embry). His panel had a whole different vibe for me cause it was like watching my teenage son up there answering questions. He was sweet, but all kinds of awkward.



Kiowa also performed with his band “Touche”. I use the terms "band" and "perform" kinda loosely cause they were every sterotype of a typical high school garage band and I have a feeling this may have been their first gig. I also suspect that the sound guy may have turned the microphones off completely for the last part of their performance. Still, you have to admire their enthusiasm.



They ended up asking "Nicole's" question to do his best Bella and I don’t think Kiowa completely understood the question, but it was still fabulous. He brought Nicole up on stage to act out the New Moon break up scene with him and it was SO funny! He kept running his hands through his hair like Rob while Nicole stuttered and blinked her way through it. Surprisingly she didn't kill me afterwards.



Chaske Spencer (Sam) told some really funny stories and had a killer smile. He was one of those people you instantly like and could just sit and listen to all afternoon. And who would have pegged him as a closet Lady GaGa fan?



I’m so sorry I can’t remember much about when Justin Chon (Eric) was on stage…


Or Justine Wachsberger (Gianna) either…



Tinsel Korey (Emily) hosted the Friday night karaoke and I’m pleased to report that she can sing! She was very likeable and great at answering the randomest questions with equally random and entertaining answers.



Charlie Bewley (Demetri) was interesting, because between his British accent and very offbeat personality, most people didn't know what to make of him.


He bounced around the room like a rubber ball and was extremely energetic and enthusiastic (and maybe just a little scary). He kept saying the word “banananana” in that delightful accent and cracking us up. True, we were an easily amused crowd.

We also attended the Vampire Ball the second night (I dressed up as a human) and all of the day's Twi-cast members were there too. I was very impressed that Chaske stayed the whole time and danced with everyone (and by the term "everyone" I mean 12 year old girls). He totally made their day.

Throughout the convention they had videos playing on the big screens, trivia contests, various panels, dealer room, etc. We met all of the actors to get their autographs and it was especially fun getting Mrs. P’s avi signed by Peter Facinelli. I have to give him credit that he didn't seem surprised at all to sign a picture of a cartoon girl. He looked at me a few seconds like he was thinking about what to write and then wrote “To Mrs. P ♥ Mr. P”. What a doll. We also met the “Twilight Hands” lady who holds the apple on the Twilight book cover and she good naturedly posed holding Mrs. P’s avi (see left sidebar for photos).




And Mrs. P also met the Hillywood Show! She was just as impressed with Hillywood-Jacob’s abs as we were.

Don’t forget to go Walk with Mrs. P today!

P.S. You didn’t think I’d leave you without a picture of Rob, did you?
