Teenagers Of The World, Rejoice!


The rumour mill is rife with conjecture over the state of Twilight actors Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's relationship. The latest reports are suggesting that the two, who have never publicly confirmed their relationship, have called it quits.

The blame, as is often the case with celeb relationships, has been laid on hectic work schedules resulting in a lack of time spent together. Rob's work is especially hectic at the moment, as he is off all over the world promoting, spending less and less time with homebody Kristen.

A source spoke to The Mirror and gave a lengthy statement saying "[Rob and Kristen's] phone calls were getting fewer and further between. They started to only see each other on set and began to drift apart until a general apathy developed...The excuses why they could't meet up basically got weaker and weaker, and Rob figured they should officially cool things off and have some time to figure out what they want."

The Mirror's source added (just for good measure); "There have been a few tears but the pair remain friendly. Kristen is hopeful of a reconciliation once Rob has finished promotion for his latest movie."

Twihards everywhere, I hear your hearts breaking.

Kristen Stewart To Be Snow White?


According to Universal Studios sources, they have offered the role of Snow White to Kristen Strewart if she wants it. After screentesting several actresses for the role, they want her to star alongside Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen and Viggo Mortensen as the Huntsman. Stewart certainly has the colouring required for the role, although it remains to be seen if she can conjoure up Snow White's good nature and grace. Of course, this film version could deviate into far darker territory than the Brothers Grimm literary folk tale, which was used as the basis for Disney's 1930's animated version. In which case, she'd be great. Well, not great, because her acting skills still need quite a bit of work, but you know...she does dark pretty O.K.

Along with the Universal version, there are two other Snow White films in the pipeline, one which has Julia Roberts signed on as the Queen, and another which is in the writing process for a new Disney version. Tough competition, and maybe a slight overloading of the market for that particular tale. As a fan of the older versions of the story, where things are much more gritty and scary and *gasp* rude, I hope that at least one of the versions decides to go down that route. Fairy Tales were originally for grown-ups, you know.
