The Vampire Diaries ‘Family Ties’ – Episode Recap
Written by Violet on October 2, 2009 – 7:26 pm -The Vampire Diaries did not disappoint this week. The show is beginning to delve into the history of The Brothers Salvatore, their relationship to the town and the hotness that is Ian Somerhalder knows no bounds.
Awesome Twilight dig from Damon: “Edward is so whipped!”
So let’s sum it up:
Caroline (Candice Accola) is under Damon’s (Somerhalder) control for most of the episode. She knows he’s a vampire, he feeds on her blood and that he will kill her eventually and still keeps his secret. Stefan (Paul Wesley) is physically and mentally weaker than his evil brother because he does not feed on human blood and Damon takes advantage of this and invades his little bro’s dreams.
The town has a long standing tradition called The Founder’s Day party and the Salvatore family has history that is slowly being uncovered by Elena (Nina Dobrev.) Stefan tries to counter Damon’s mind manipulation and gives a vervain-enhanced locket to Elena so she can see through his wily attempts. Oh and the human uncle Zach has a secret stash of the plant growing. Damon tried to wipe out the anti-vampire plant vervain some time ago. Shhhh!
Elena’s family has a pocket watch that is coveted by the townspeople (who are aware that there are vampires in their midst) and the group wants it. Elena has handed it over to her brother who was sentimental about it belonging to their dead parents but a long lost love shows up to court their Aunt Jenna and get it back. Watch = Silver bullet/stake in the heart kinda protection perhaps?
Damon gets played by Stefan who spikes Caroline’s drink with vervain and when Damon drinks her blood, he ends up in spasms on the ground. Stephan and Zach throw Damon into the locked room with the strength sapping plant and think their problems are solved. Tricky!
After Damon’s influence is gone, Caroline starts to remember all the vile things Damon has done and is about to have a nervous breakdown in Elena’s arms.
Now it’s getting juicy!

Miley Cyrus Cancels Show Due To Strep Throat
Written by Violet on October 2, 2009 – 6:43 pm -Poor Miley Cyrus. The ‘Party In The USA’ singer has had to cancel a stop on her Wonder World Show tour tonight in Omaha, Nebraska. She has come down with a nasty case of strep throat. She has given up lots of updates through her twitter page:
“My throat is yelling at me to shut up. Strep is the worst thing ever,” she wrote. “Thank you, Salt Lake, for being so amazing and supportive. My body is done with me working it so hard. Off to have a very nice peaceful sleep.”According to her tweets, dad Billy Ray and sister Noah have been keeping the singer’s spirits up until she gets better. “Nurse Noah is taking good care of me tonight. I just put on a Snuggie and ate a popsicle,” she wrote.
According to MTV.com her next show is Saturday night, October 3rd in Kansas City MO. Let’s hope she feels well enough by tomorrow to perform, but if she’s not up to it, it will be better for her stay in bed – although fans will be disappointed. Then she can reschedule and give it her all.

‘Eclipse’ Soundtrack May Include Robert Pattinson
Written by Violet on October 2, 2009 – 6:08 pm -In the upcoming issue of Mexican Joy Magazine, actor Robert Pattinson spoke openly about his life since landing the role of Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga and his passion for music and a possible song or two for ‘Eclipse.’ He says he’d like to contribute if time allows. We are all waiting to hear more of his music.
The photo and translation of the article is courtesy of TwilightPoison.
Robert is the perfect example of what the media and fame are capable of doing. It’s a huge stroke of luck, brutal and well-aimed that all of a sudden launches you to the highest peak of worldwide attention, away from good and evil. Something very tempting and rare.
“I wasn’t expecting having this much success. It’s something I still can’t understand. The truth is that in certain occasions I feel dizzy and I still don’t know how to handle so much attention” he expresses, in a very shy voice, almost like a whisper, as if he was telling us a secret. His eyes, so clear they’re almost transparent, stare attentively at us and distract us. It’s not easy resisting his charms! His honesty wins us over though, because far from finding a male diva, we discover, little by little a sensitive man. Warm and charming. We don’t hesitate in sharing with him what we really think: luck, yes, it’s fundamental, but if it doesn’t come hand in hand with talent and magic, everything remains just an anecdote. Robert smiles, he likes the idea. For now he knows that in talent he has exceeded expectations but he worries that he might not be up to the hype and the phenomenon that he’s become. It’s clear to us; charisma is authentic. And after this interview, there’s no doubts about it.
Last time we saw you, Twilight was about to be released and you said you didn’t know what to expect of the movie, and that everybody was looking forward to it. After all the success and box office numbers, how do you feel?
It’s very strange. I can say that everything has happened very fast. Like I’m fast-forwarding through life. Like everything around me is happening at 1000 m/p. The way you fast-forward a movie, just like that. I never thought the movie would cause such a stir. Seeing girls screaming around me is so bizarre. Sometimes I can’t believe is all about me. It’s like I’m living inside a movie, but I wake up and it’s all real. I see that it’s real and how much my life has changed. I still don’t know in which ways my life has changed, I’m still figuring that out. And I don’t know why but I think it’s going to take me a long time to figure it out. I guess it’s normal, don’t you think?

But Chenowith stole the show with her leading the club on Carrie Underwood’s song ‘Last Name.’
