Are you tired of my incessant posts on Twilight? Well, don't worry - things will simmer down once the movie comes out tomorrow and I have another obsession. But for now, you'll just have to experience my lovely passion for angst-ridden teen vampire romance...

On Tuesday, I went to a screening of the film and there was a "Forks High School Prom" theme to the whole ordeal (In case you're wondering, Forks is the city the movie takes place and there is a prom involved in the story). There were tons of shrieking tweens there dressed in prom attire and as characters in the movie. I swear, the following for this movie is huge and rabid. Throughout the film, the tweens squealed with irritating glee as particular characters appeared on screen - particularly Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen.

After the screening, I was talking to a fellow, more mature Twilighter, Samantha, who happens to be a fashion writer for FabSugar.com. We were talking about all the screams throughout the film and she said she let a little scream for someone as well - but it wasn't Pattinson. It was Cam Gigandet. He plays the villainous vampire James in the film:

Isn't his last name interesting? Anyways, everyone is so focused on the good guy in the film, that they rarely notice the bad boy. And as we all know, girls love those troublemakers. Especially if they are vampires. And if they are a part of the new Gap holiday campaign (which I look forward to every year). In case you haven't seen them, Gigandet joins an long list of celebs for the campaign including Jon Hamm from "Mad Men," hip hop star Flo-rida, Mary-Louise Parker from "Weeds," Rainn Wilson from "The Office", Ben Barnes from "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian," model/actor/fashion designer Milla Jovovich with her 8-month old daughter Ever Gabo, actor and singer Jennifer Hudson, sci-fi soul diva Janelle Monae and many others.

 

I'll post some more pics of the holiday campaign later, but for now, you can enjoy Cam Gigandet in his Gap garb. He may be pure evil in "Twilight," but the lad cleans up very well; showing that he isn't all about bloodsucking and bad boy leather - he likes argyle too!
