'Twilight' stars light up IMDb's Top 100 of 2009 listing

It wasn't until late 2008 (November 21st to be exact) that Twilight released to theaters and its cast members became household names. In 2009, however, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and its cast have been on the tips of tongues ranging everywhere from the mainstream media to the most ardent of critics. 

All year long, the coveted top spot on IMDb's STARmeter has belonged to a Twilight star (with intermediate takeovers by temporary pop culture icons from time to time), and the "big three" (Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner) have all taken turns at number one.

So, it should serve as no surprise, then, that when IMDb released its Top 100 of 2009 list, it was the cast of Twilight that held many of the highest places on the list.

For starters, Robert Pattinson was the number one on the STARmeter for 2009 with Kristen Stewart right behind him in second place.

Taylor Lautner took the number five spot, and Dakota Fanning placed eighth on the list. Beyond the top ten list, too, there is a lot of Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon cast representation. Ashley Greene is number eleven; Nikki Reed holds down the fifteenth spot; Jackson Rathbone came in at twenty-six; Peter Facinelli is thirty-seventh; Kellan Lutz came in at thirty-nine; Michael Sheen is forty-fifth; and Cam Gigandet is at number sixty.
