Here are a few pics of Twilight cast members Taylor Lautner (Jacob) and Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria) signing a few autographs at an in-store appearance at the Hot Topic at the Westfield Shopping Center in Seattle, WA yesterday afternoon. The principal cast of Twilight are touring Hot Topic stores in malls around the US to promote their new movie Twilight which opens in theaters on November 21 .. behold:

Be warned, there are a few rules and requirements you need to be aware of if you want to meet these Twilight cast members in person at a mall new you. Click HERE for all the deets on the when’s and how’s. Also … I will be doing a Twilight Contest later this week where I will be offering up a pretty cool Twilight Prize Pack for one lucky Pink is the new Blog reader. Wanna know what it is? (more…)

Beyoncé and her mama Tina Knowles were on hand this week in NYC to do an in-store appearance at Bloomingdale’s department store for the official launch of a new collection of House of Dereon fashions inspired by B’s new movie Cadillac Records (a biopic of sorts where Beyoncé portrays jazz/soul singer Etta James). Here are a few pics of B and T at this week’s in-store appearance:

I don’t actually know of anyone who has ever purchased and/or worn an article of clothing from House of Dereon (Beyoncé’s “high end” fashion line) but it must be doing well if they are able to produce specialized collections like this. I’m always dubiously wary of celebrity branded clothing lines (because, really, if you’re going to spend money on expensive clothes, why not spend that money on actual designer labels?) but I can understand how some folks might want to shell out clothes “designed” by their fave stars. I believe Jennifer Lopez’s fashion line sells well … as does P. Diddy’s Sean John line. In any event, the House of Dereon: Cadillac Records Collection is coming your way so interested parties should be on the look-out.

In other Beyoncé news, here are a few new promo pics of Ms. B from her upcoming I Am … Sasha Fierce album:

She sure looks a lot like regular ol’ Beyoncé in most of these pics … only the ferosh pic in the middle looks anything like Sasha Fierce. You gotta admit … Beyoncé is everywhere these days. The girl knows how to work. Is anyone else buying any of this?

Yesterday afternoon I made my way out to The Golden Apple comic book store on Melrose Ave. here in LA for an in-store appearance by Heroes star Milo Ventimiglia and comic artist Tim Sale for the launch of their new comic book series Rest. I was very happy to see that a few hundred folks also came out for the comic book release event. Here are a few pics from yesterday’s fun:

When I arrived, the line of folks who came out for the event stretched down the street and around the block, it was very cool. I was fortunate enough to get to hang out with Milo’s best friends Dino and Russ (some of you may know that they, along with Milo, are the founding members of the Divide Social Club) for the duration of the in-store appearance. I got to meet a few Pink readers and, after the event was finished, I also got to snap a pic with Milo himself. After the jump, check out a few more fun pics including a VERY COOL VIDEO of Milo’s arrival at yesterday’s event … (more…)

Heidi Klum made an in-store appearance at the Victoria’s Secret shop at The Grove here in LA Thursday for the launch of her new line of Very Sexy Make-up that is being sold for a limited time exclusively at VS stores (and online) around the country. Heidi donned a cute pair of fairy wings for the event … here are a few pics:

Anyone who knows anything about Heidi Klum knows that she is a big fan of Halloween so I’m not at all surprised that she wanted to play a little dress-up for this event. Now, I have no idea whether folks may be interested in procuring her line of make-up products merely because her name is attached to them but I am well aware that celebrity-branded fragrances tend to sell well so … why not? I’m not sure if wearing Very Sexy Make-up will make you look as hawt as Heidi Klum but for a reasonable price you can find out … if you dare.

A few castmembers from the new CW series 90210 made their way out to the Kitson boutique in West Hollywood, CA last night for the red carpet launch of a new line of t-shirts that promote the show. Back in the early ’90’s, Beverly Hills, 90210 spawned a crush of merchandising options (from frisbees to dolls to perfume) and it looks like the new gang at West Beverly High are trying to get in on that action with a new line of stuff of their own. Here are a few pics from the red carpet arrivals at last night’s in-store launch event at Kitson:

I don’t personally think that the new batch of 90210 stuff is gonna be as popular as their predecessor’s merchandise but I can’t blame them for striking while the iron is hot. I think they might want to come up with better shirt slogans than Lacrosse Players Do It Better but the Team Silver and Team Naomi shirts are cute, if not inventive. If YOU are interested in procuring these 90210-themed t-shirts you can pop in to Kitson on Robertson Blvd. or order them online HERE. Never fear old skoolers, they’ve got a couple faux vintage BH, 90210 designs as well.
