ACTOR ALEX MERAZ – SEVEN TWEETS RIZON – 12.26.10

An Arizona sense of Humor: “Just got three gold teeth for my new role! Peruvian chicks love a guy with gold teeth I have to keep telling them I’m not a rapper or a drug dealer but no one will believe me.”

Twilight Saga‘s Alex Meraz always makes me smile the way Alex tweets. His native American Indian sense of humor is very similar to Maori in New Zealand. Here’s the rest of Alex’ tweets as a working action star actor of Hollywood:

On how fame changes community roles: “Just got invited to do a police ride along…and I’ll actually be in the passenger side and NOT the back this time!”

How to announce getting selected as a sex symbol of America: “Check out my photo for PEOPLE MAGAZINES “Sexiest Man Alive issue” in stores now http://twitpic.com/37q2df

On the joy of screenwriting is entirely one’s own–most times: “Been giggling to myself all day like a little girl…nearly finished writing a movie script and It’s a shake-weight stroke of genius!”

On prepping for Twilight filming: “Guess what script I’m reading? I’ll give you a hint…It rhymes with “Breaking Dawn pt.1″ Oops!!!”

On being a secret Miley Cyrus fan: Christmas came early!! Check out my new journalhttp://twitpic.com/3cy5x6.

Lol!

TAYLOR LAUTNER’S STAR POWER, HOLLYWOOD 2011

Taylor Lautner: The only teen action movie star to clearly make it through Hollywood’s quick sand celebrity hoops in 2010 by playing a teen werewolf has managed to keep his newest relaysh with Lily Collins out of the public eye, at least compared to his tour-de-paparazzi-force courtship with Taylor Swift.

This kid never made the top ten in Hollywood this year, but still proves he can kick above his weight in Tinsel Town. He’s a symbol that teen lads can do anything if they work hard, get lucky breaks, if authors write popular book series with teens in mind that then get adapted to film; and with the right parenting behind them.

Lautner’s upcoming movie work in Hollywood sees him cast in the film: Abduction (Post Production); The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part I & Breaking Dawn Part II as Jacob Black.

Courage To Love by Californian author Robert Ellis is created and written in the spirit needed in American schools today. In a Shakespearean love story set in the Middle East two young people from opposite worlds, find love from a sense of honesty only found in accepting each others difference. So romantic. Read it. It’s  a great book for all American school children … and kidults too. Cover artwork is by the legendary surrealist artist, Salvador Dali.

HORIWOOD’S 10 TOP TWILIGHT ECLIPSE WEBSITES

KristenStewartStephenieMeyerRobertPattinson

On Horiwood.Com we are a huge fan of author Stephenie Meyer and her cast of characters she created in the Twilight Saga book series. We also love her brilliance  for giving young people in a recession film careers too, with the casting of Twilight’s big young super stars in her Summit Entertainment films. She’s an architect of  Hollywood with the power of the pen. Love it.

But first up, here’s our hot pick of a Twilight Saga website that is  a rising star. It’s called TwilightSingapore.Com and it  is proof that fantastic things happen online outside of American in entertainment. Nice one Singapore! We feel you.

In honor  of Stephenie Meyer, here’s our Top 10 Twilight  Saga Websites on Horiwood.Com:

1. The Twilight Saga.Com – features a great interview with director Catherine Hardwicke and currently has a penchant for Taylor Lautner’s Jacob Black film character. Mainly centered around hawking Twilight’s latest merchandise for the film series the site is  rated #1 on google.com’s search engines.

The latest merchandise being offered is a promotion featuring the cover for New Moon: The Official Illustrated Movie Companion which is to be published by Little, Brown on October 6th. The visual guide to the second Twilight fim features exclusive full-color photos of the cast, sets and locations and is the ultimate companion to the movie  which hits theaters November 20th.

TwilightNewMoonMovieCompanion

2. TwilightTheMovie.Com: This site needs Flash, version 10 to enjoy. It’s a very pretty site. 

3. StephenieMeyer.Com: I love this site, for the other author book recommends that Stephenie  Meyer writes  about too. She’s a really humble literary bird. At the moment she recommends reading:  Dreamhunter and Dreamquake by Elizabeth Knox. You just get the feeling with Stephenie  Meyer, that she  wants other really good  authors to have the same success that she’s had. What a honey!

4. IMDB.Com: This  website  is the online industry bible in Hollywood, of who does what in film. Casting agents, all producers and directors refer to IMDB every day. Why I  like it, is because IMDB has a message  thread board, and many Twilight Fans comment on it, as to who and what should be in the future Twilight Saga films.

It does require a membership to have full access,  but it’s so worth it, if you want to know what’s going on in Hollywood from an industry perspective. IMDB is also Twilight Eclipse actor, Robert Pattinson’s favorite website, along with the New York Times.

5. HisGoldenEyes.Com: You have to give creds to a fan website, that has become an official website of Summit Entertainment’s  marketing team to use and do promotions through. That’s quite a feat  for the creator of His Golden Eyes.Com to achieve. Why I like it, is because they are up to date and more current than any other Twilight Saga related site available.

XavierSamuelBryceDallasHowardTwilightEclipse

Today HisGoldenEyes features this  pic of Xavier Samuels snogging Bryce Dalls Howard (the girl who replaced Rachelle Lefevre) on set of the filming of Eclipse. Also, they sell their own merchandise too, like a “Bite Me Edward” tee shirt for screaming Twilight teen fan girls. They’re making money off Stephenie Meyer, and they’re doing it the best. Nice!

6. Twilighters.Org: Is a crazy fansite, dedicated to updates and news tips about the cast and crew. It also  borrows heavily from Twilight’s branding, sticking to the color palate of Summit entertainment for their own website face. Today, it’s  looking pretty good, plugging the New Moon Board Game. Stephenie Meyer loves anyone whose doing her work for her and selling her hot stuff, so  I’ve got to give Twilighters.Org a shout out today for that! Nice one guys and girls! They are very similar to His Golden Eyes, borrowing a lot off their competitors. But  still love them anyway!

NewMoonBoardGamePackaging

New Moon Board Game features are:
✩ Enter the world of the Twilight Saga and reunite Bella and Edward

NewMoonBoardGame

To preorder the  New Moon Board Game from Amazon.Com go here.

7. TwilightReview.Com: A younger site that is competing with the best Twilight Saga websites. They deserve a big shout out today. Hard work pays off.

8. TwilightGuy.Com: Any guy who says he’s not a Twilight fan, goes to TwiCon, and has this crazy website, is funny enough, to be an interesting Twilight News reporter in our book. Nice one Twilight Guy! Oh, and he’s also writing his own novel. Smart.

9. TwilightLexicon.Com: was dubbed by Stephenie Meyer as being “the brightest star in the Twilight online universe.” Anyone who knows what a lexicon is  in the first place and sets up a website called that, deserves a spotlight today. 

10. ETOnline.Com: All Twilight Saga websites benefit hugely from those rare and exclusive TV interviews with Twilight Saga stars. When New Moon and Eclipse is being filmed, it is Entertainment Tonight (ET) who is the largest entertainment news show in America who gets these exclusive interviews first. Websites and bloggers can’t do it alone, so ETonline.Com get a special mention for bringing the expensive TV component to keeping the Twilight fans happy all year round.

EXCLUSIVE – IQ+ EQ: THE Q’ORIANKER KILCHER INTERVIEW

QoriankaKilcher2

The actress known as Q’orianker Kilcher may have narrowly missed out on playing Leah Clearwater in Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight Saga: Eclipse film for Summit Entertainment, but she is the Princess of Humanitarian causes and the Queen of globally conscious young hearts, all around the world.

She’s more than an actress, she’s a global movement of smart change at the eclipse of twilight’s dawning of a new world for young people who are thinking of future generations.

This young lady is in one word, stunning!

Sam Cruickshank’s interview with actress Q’orianker Kilcher for Horiwood.Com and Tu Mai Magazine, follows.

iQ +  eQ: Actress Q’orianker Kilcher and her Clearwater Conscience of Global Change is Inspiring

 

Ko wai koe? [Who are you?] What does your name mean?

I am descendant from the Huachipaeri and Quechua people of Peru.  My name means Golden Eagle in the quechua language …  -Qoria =Golden and Anka=Eagle

I’m just a girl who tries to do her part to contribute to a global warming of hearts and cause climate change and shift in human consciousness;)

 No hea koe? [Where are your people descended from, and where do you physically live now?]

I am half Quechua Huachipaeri from the Peruvian Amazon and Swiss French and Alaskan…. And yes now I live in LA…ah!!!

I was born in Germany; Lived in Peru as a baby and then moved to Hawaii when I was two. My mom also traveled a lot with me… Egypt, England, Germany, Japan Mexico Guatemala, Switzerland etc… I am currently staying in Los Angeles due to work … but I refuse to unpack all my boxes!

 How did you get into acting?

When I was about five or six my mom took me to a Rolling Stones concert and I looked at this stadium of people and saw the power you could have as an artist. It was amazing the influence that an artist can have on people. The power to be able to speak out for justice…. Fame seemed like a wonderful tool to do so much good in the world… and that fascinated me… and I looked at my mom and told her one day I want to be here with a stadium of people; I wanted to one day be able to give voice to the voiceless.

 So my mom made me a deal to support me, if I in return would ALWAYS remember why I started a showbiz career…. And I always have.

I started going to acting classes, voice lessons, and any other class I could find… such as kung fu, Capoaira, diving, sailing, stunt class, acrobatics, all kinds of dance classes etc… so I could have a good resume….

I owe all my success to my family…the unending support of my whole family and a special shout out for my little brother Kainoa… who always saved all his money to help me pay for voice lessons and acting classes.

So In December of 1998 my whole family relocated for me to Los Angeles… We lived in our RV… I started showcasing my singing on the streets in Santa Monica…. And writing songs for my first imaginary CD!

I was sent for my first audition for the Grinch That Stole Christmas and booked a principal part, which was cut out of the final version. Then it went back to endless auditioning, without ever booking anything. One has to be patient in Hollywood.

It’s not easy being a hard to place ethnic talent. I was never White enough, Latino enough, Black enough, Asian enough…. Just not enough… I don’t know what….But I think I was persistent enough. (more…)

THE HORIWOOD TOP 10 – TUES 8.18.09

8BellaSwanPoster

Kristen Stewart and Q’orianker Kilcher have Summit Entertainment’s Twilight Eclipse casting in common. Kristen’s casting as Bella Swan for the third film of Stephenie Meyers novels, proves Kristen Stewart is hot enough to make both Robert Pattinson’s Edward Cullen and Taylor Lautner’s Jacob Black both have chemistry, both onscreen and also in real life, with a cinematic association to the LA actress.

QoriankaKilcher

However, when put to public vote, it is Q’orianker Kilcher who is rating today at #1, on the issue of the Twilight Saga’s casting choices. Kilcher, the actress who starred at 14 years of age as Pocahontas in The New World, is the rising star of Horiwood.Com the past two month. She’s got blog heat and an exciting future in film ahead of her. Q’orianker is 19 years old and has a bright future in mainstream movies.

Horiwood also congratulates Julia Jones III, 30, for landing the role of Leah Clearwater, 19, for Twilight Saga Eclipse. Beating out beautiful, highly accomplished, younger and even more intelligent actresses, is no easy feat. Congratulations too Ms Jones. Perhaps Julia Jones could be a Meryl Streep kind of actress. Meryl is still going strong in her 60s. That could be Julia Jones’ story too if she has staying power in Hollywood.
