Look who popped up at a post-Emmy party with Heroes‘ Hayden Panettiere?  None other than Twilight‘s Kellan Lutz:

Like Panettiere, Gossip Girl‘s Blake Lively showed up to the Emmys in red, although her neckline was a little deeper.  They both pulled it off, but Lively’s Gossip co-star Leighton Meester didn’t fare as well in a frumpy white dress.  Check them both out below:

This week marks the unfortunate passing of Hollywood superstar Patrick Swayze. After a long and courageous battle with cancer Swayze leaves behind an incredible legacy. We here at ClevverTV would like to celebrate his contributions to the entertainment world by making our DVD Pick of the week one of the most iconic movies in Film History- the 1987 film “Dirty Dancing.”

I know, a bit obscure, but this is actually really appropriate since the next role being discussed for Robert Pattinson is as the young scion of House Atreides, Paul Atreides, in the upcoming remake of Dune.

Science fiction buffs everywhere will know that Dune was one of the biggest, most sweeping sci-fi epics ever released, and this newest version promises to be different from the original and from the miniseries that aired on the Syfy (formerly Sci-Fi) Channel.

I’m personally a bit conflicted as to how to feel about this–while I do feel that, in general, Pattinson’s body of work does suggest he can handle science fiction, it also shows a total lack of actual experience IN the genre.  He’s got fantasy with his Cedric Diggory, and at least a kind of horror with his Edward Cullen–and there’s no doubt he’s got the leading man cred–but science fiction is not your normal class of movie.  This gives me some doubt as to his ability to handle a huge role like Paul Atreides.

But we’ll have a long wait before we can find out–the script is still being written, and is reportedly so large it will require substantial editing to air. Would Robert Pattinson be able to handle this role?

As in “Saturday Night Live” from New York.

Seems SNL’s interested in getting the Twilight lead for a guest host position, and the cast is actually fairly enthusiastic about such a move.  Even Andy Samberg gave the idea a thumbs-up, and Kristen Wiig was reportedly very enthusiastic.

Seth Meyers, lead writer and star on the long-running series, also said that, if they couldn’t get Rob himself, he at least hopes they “can get his hair” to handle hosting duties.  This would probably work out well for SNL, as Rob’s hair is about as easily recognizable as he is, and Meyers could then go nuts writing “Cousin It” from The Addams Family sketches featuring it.

But there’s no doubt that R-Pattz on SNL could be a sparkly gold mine of comedy fodder for the writers on that show, so frankly, I hope they manage to get him in.  Even I’d start watching the show, and I haven’t watched SNL regularly since Chris Kattan left.

It’s impressive that this year marks the 61st annual awards show and there are some newly set records in different categories for 2009. 30 Rock has 22 nods for comedy series, the TV movie Grey Gardens has 17 SNL has 13 nominations for variety program and Dancing With the Stars has 10 nods for non-fiction program. HBO is dominating overall with 99 nominations, followed by Showtime’s 29 and AMC’s 23 – thanks mostly to Mad Men, and of course, there’s a long list of network and cable channels with multiple nominations that follows… Check out the video for the rest of the Story.
