Alex Meraz looked so happy at the premiere of The Twilight Saga: New Moon last night at the Mann Village and Bruin Theaters in Los Angeles, California. I love Alex in a suit but I was hoping maybe he would adopt what he wore in the movie, maybe showing up on the red carpet shirtless but that may have been too much pressure for him.
Alex was tweeting about it a lot in the last couple of days and it was neat to hear him so excited. Just before he went to the premiere he tweeted this.
Just got my hair cut and I actually shaved for once…I look like Nick Lachey…could be a good or a bad thing…don’t know.
And then just as he was pulling up he tweeted this.
In the limo about to pass out with nerves!! I’m amazed at how may people came out.
Alex Meraz was in Aventura, Florida today at Aventura Mall at a private meet and greet for a lucky 75 fans. Alex was also on the Rachael Ray show today. I didn’t get a chance to see it because the little boy in my life decided that he needed to watch cartoons.
I have been following Alex on Twitter and he’s really funny. I’m not surprised though Alex looks like he would be fun to hang out with. Yesterday he tweeted this…
Highlight of the night: A girl walks up to get my autograph with a disappointed look on her face and says “your not as Cute in person”
Poor Alex. I would think that he was cute no matter what.

We have been waiting all week for the new video by Britney Spears. Finally, this morning she released the video on Twitter. I have to say that I like it. And then I take a listen to the lyrics….
Merrier the more
Triple fun that way
Twister on the floor
What do you say?
Is this a song about threesomes? I guess this is the new open-minded world…
Adam Lambert released the artwork for his album last week on Twitter. Honestly, I thought that it was totally Adam. The glam rocker type thing. But what do I know? Adam took to Twitter again to explain the cover to the people that didn’t get it.
“Thank you to those who appreciate and understand that the album cover is deliberately campy. It’s an [homage] to the past. It IS ridiculous. For those that don’t get it: oh well… Glad to have gotten your attention.â€
“Debut single is called For Your Entertainment get ready to shake yo asses to this song. It’ll make ya dance for sure. â€
I know that his record will be an amazing hit. He was the only one I rooted for on American Idol.
I am realizing before New Moon comes out that the werewolves might be just as hot as the vampires. (Okay only Alex Meraz and Taylor Lautner are the cute ones.) Finally Alex is getting the love he deserves. He did an interview with Vanity Fair where they discussed all things Twilight. Here are the highlights of the interview.
On if he had seen Twilight: No, I hadn’t, but after I got the role, I bought a bootlegged version and watched it while I was on set.
On his favorite scene to shoot: The cliff diving scene was the most fun because the whole Wolf Pack was there and we were jumping off these 50-foot scaffolding things onto an air mattress. It was pretty exciting to be able to do our own stunts.
On if he had a stunt double: No! They were pushing for it, we were pushing against; we wanted to do our own stuff. We had to train for a good two days, eight hours each day just practicing jumping, making sure we were landing safely. On the day [of shooting], we were actually jumping from a green screen cliff but it was actually taller and a little bit more dangerous because there was foliage and grass on top of it—it was a little slippery. We were fine, and it was really fun.
On what they did on their downtime: We showed each other exercises. Taylor would show some of his workout, I would show some of mine. We’d practice martial arts tricks … just goof off! We had a great time. That’s part of what our characters were like anyway. We’re supposed to be frisky, friendly—like brothers. I think everyone on set was affected by it because they were always looking forward to the days when the Wolf Pack would film … everyone was really excited. They knew we were going to bring a different kind of energy.
On his thousands of Twitter followers: I know! It’s only been like a week and a half since I got my Twitter [account]! It’s pretty cool. For the first week, no one believed it was me, so I had to put a picture of me holding my name. It looked like a mug shot! It was pretty ridiculous, but it’s really cool knowing you have really enthusiastic fans that want to hear about what you do on a day-to-day basis.
