Do not mock the photo above. These are just things you do when you are a Twi-hard, along with attending Twilight Night. Twilight Night was a 12-city promotional event hosted by Summit Entertainment on June 26th to get everyone excited and ready for the release of Twilight’s third (& best in my opinion) installment, Eclipse.
Once again, All-Mighty strikes in the cute department! They just recently released some new items, including an adorable paws necklace along with this wrapping paper sprinkled with Boston Terriers. Unfortunately, it is $3 a sheet and not a roll. Total bummer!
I’d like to start off Lovable Friday today with the winner of The Bird & The Bee contest I held last week! The lucky winner of a copy of their new album, Interpreting the Masters, Volume 1 is Karen Lisa! Congratulations! Remember to send me your mailing address as soon as you can so the CD can be sent your way!
I couldn’t love this more. For those not in the know, VILF stands for Vampire I‘d Like to F___ – I’ll let you fill in the nasty little letters yourselves! As if June 13th didn’t feel long enough, yet another teaser was released earlier this week featuring everyone’s favorite bar-owning shape shifter, Sam Merlotte. I hate how they are purposely featuring scenes that cannot be placed if you read the novels. Does anyone have any theories? Also, I totally need this as a shirt for this year’s Comic Con!
I’m excited to announce that I have yet another kick-ass giveaway to host this week thanks to Filter Magazine! One of the year’s best movies, Where the Wild Things Are, is being released today on DVD and Blu-Ray and I’m giving you a chance to win the movie’s amazing soundtrack along with a few other little goodies!
In case you didn’t hear all the rave reviews about the movie’s soundtrack, it is chock full of original music by Yeah Yeah Yeah’s lead singer, Karen O, and “the kids.” It’s one of the sweetest, most uplifting albums you will probably ever own – I know every time I listen to it, I can’t help but smile. Even on my worst days.
Check out the following awesome video where Karen O explains the tracks on the album & their inspiration:

I know that I had mentioned that I was mad at Billy Corgan for his “relationship” with Jessica Simpson (he now states he was only spending time with her because he was doing the theme song for her new VH1 show…hmph), but I can never be mad at his music. So far, the two new releases off the Smashing Pumpkins’ new album, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, have been amazing as usual. They are being released for free (you can download them here), but knowing that there will be those rabid fans that need a physical release to cherish for years, Corgan decided to have special edition box sets. The first one will be available on April 20th and is now available for pre-order. Each box contains a 4-song CD, a 7″ vinyl single (containing a new song and a B-Side), and a hand-carved “leopard stone” obelisk, about 2″ tall, similar to marble (??). You know I’ll be placing my order!
