Culture: Implying sex is enough to get libraries to ban the “Twilight” series

  • Torn feathered pillows, bruises and a sore jaw. That’s all. The “Twilight” books, which are actually pretty conservative in their handling of sexual tension, are generally considered teen-friendly books.

Ironic part: Author Stephenie Meyer’s a devout Mormon. And the books promote chastity. source

Culture: Paris Hilton is a bit behind the curve on her “Twilight” love

  • She digs Robert Pattinson. Hilton, who kind of has a history of getting what she wants, mentioned to reporters that she finally saw the bloodsucking hit “Twilight” – which has been out since November – a couple of nights ago, and took a liking to both the vampire tale and the male lead. Regarding Pattinson, she noted that “He’s fabulous!” Next, Hilton will do the Macarena for us. source
