Ashley Greene Sounds Off on Domestic Violence and Abusive Relationships

2012-02-09T21:00:00.004-07:00

The Twilight star and face of Mark talks about her involvement with LoveisRespect.org, a new resource from the National Dating Abuse Helpline.

Tell us a little bit about the event you're hosting.
The event is for Loveisrespect.org and it's for their "Louder Than Words" launch, and I'm here because I'm the ambassador for Mark. The campaign is dedicated to stopping abuse and domestic violence. They recently created youth advisory board with the National Dating Abuse Helpline.

Who are you most excited to see at the party tonight?
I got to meet a couple of the girls who are the board. They're all very smart girls who are very dedicated. I admire what they're doing, especially at young age; it's incredible and really inspiring.
How did the girls get involved?
Loveisrespect.org did a search, working with the National Dating Abuse Helpline. They had to write essays, explaining how domestic violence has affected them. Twenty-four girls were selected and now they're all out there making a difference, making sure people my age and younger are aware of dating abuse.

The most impressive part is that they're getting down to the bottom of the issue, explaining that it doesn't have to physical. It can start with sending erratic text messages and being jealous—things that escalate into something. Making people aware is the most the important thing. We have to stop the cycle while we're young, because once you've been involved in an abusive relations, it's a lot harder to break that pattern.
How did you get involved?
Mark approached me to be their ambassador, and though I like the products and think they're great, I wasn't interested in signing on to a brand just because it's a campaign. But then I saw this m.powerment aspect. I asked them, "What's your cause, what to you do?" Then they gave me the raw rundown of the statistics. Before I actually knew what the statistics were, I knew domestic violence was out there. But there are a lot of things that people just don't know, and I really believe that people need to know this. It hit home with me because it's my age range and my fans are that demographic. You probably know something who's been abused, or you've been abused, or it's affected you in some way.

What have you learned since getting involved?
I learned that 16 to 24 is the highest percentage of women who are abused. People know that abuse is out there but they don't realize it's such a epidemic.
Tell us a little bit about m.powerment.
It's Mark's philanthropic initiative dedicated to stopping domestic abuse. We raise money to give grants each year to give to organizations who have shelters and help abused women. They put people in the right place and right direction.

How is m.powerment making a difference?
Mark's m.powerment campaign donated $100,000 to start this youth advisory board. Loveisrespect.org is for all ages, but the youth advisory board is zoning in on the age demographic that's highly impacted. They make it easier for adults and teenagers to interact and connect, as far as how we speak to them with through social media.
What are the basics of healthy dating?
One of the big things is the quality of your relationships. You want someone who doesn't need power, someone who lets you discuss your thoughts and views and lets you be the individual that you are. If someone wants so be in a relationship with you, they shouldn't want to control you or change anything about you. Constantly texting you, wanting to control who you're friends with, pushing you to different limits—anyone who puts you in positions you don't want to be in. With mental abuse, it doesn't have to be screaming. Little things lead to larger problems.

What can girls do to educate themselves and get involved?
Loveisrespect.org is a great outlet, and there's tons of information out there. Girls can help other people, and they can educate themselves. They should also visit meetmark.com to learn more about the m.powerment campaign.

Kristen Stewart compares Snow White and Twilight

2012-02-09T20:50:00.000-07:00

Kristen Stewart shot to superstardom thanks to being cast in the role as Bella Swan in the Twilight franchise and that fame has given her the opportunity to work on some great films. One such film is Snow White and the Huntsman and Kristen has been talking about both movies and comparing certain aspects of the films.

Stewart explained, “I guess the only actual comparison, or I guess that a million could be drawn, but the one thing that sticks out in my mind is that they really are both in different ways matriarchs, very strong matriarchs that need to find that position. You see the whole process, but they’re so different. Them both being icons, Snow White, I didn’t grow up on fairy tales. I know everyone says that the reason that this thing is so cool is that we’ve all grown up with these stories and it’s a retelling. I’m like, ‘Nah, not really. I didn’t.’”

She added, “I also didn’t grow up with Twilight. So, for me these things are sort of being put on these characters. Right as I think, ‘Wow, this is important,’ everyone goes, ‘That’s important.’ It’s like, ‘Okay, cool.’ So, I’ve gotten really lucky. I didn’t know going into either of these things necessarily, or I mean, I know Snow White obviously more so than Twilight was expected to be important to people because they know it.” You can see Kristen Stewart in Snow White and the Huntsmanwhen it is released on June 1, while the final Twilight movie is released on November 16.

'Breaking Dawn' DVD EXCLUSIVE: Go Behind The Bloody Birth Scene

2012-02-06T00:42:00.000-07:00

The wait is almost over! In little more than a week, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" will be yours to own on Blu-ray and DVD, meaning you can hit repeat on all those awkward wedding toasts over and over again. (Or, y'know, one of the steamy sex scenes. If that's your thing.) In anticipation of the February 11 release, we've nabbed an EXCLUSIVE DVD extra in which "Twilight" scribe (and "Breaking Dawn" producer) Stephenie Meyer recalls filming the climactic birth scene. Watch the behind-the-scenes clip of Edward (Robert Pattinson) trying to revive Bella (Kristen Stewart) as Stephenie explains:

Get More: Movie Trailers, Movies Blog

"He was really able to touch the human emotions of that scene. Rob really nailed it," Stephenie recalled. "It was really powerful. I teared up, several people near me did. It was just a lump in your throat—that moment of thinking you've lost everything and not being able to accept it. It was really emotional."

Yet, as fraught as that life-or-death moment was, we can't help but smile at the quick shot of director Bill Condon fist-pumping when Rob nailed it. Very sweet.

'Twilight' helps Summit Entertainment quintuple revenue in 2 years

2012-02-05T23:26:00.000-07:00

LA Time:

Summit Entertainment's revenue more than quintupled from 2008 to 2010 based on the massive success of three "Twilight" movies, according to a regulatory filing by the studio's new parent company Lions Gate Entertainment.
As part of a presentation to potential lenders as part of its acquisition of Summit, which was previously a private company, Lions Gate disclosed Summit's financial results for the first time.
They show that from 2008, the year that the first "Twilight" movie was released theatrically, to 2010, Summit's revenue skyrocketed from $211.6 million to $1.15 billion. The Santa Monica-based studio also swung from an $85.3-million net loss in 2008 to a $352.2 million profit two years later.
In 2009, when the first "Twilight" movie came out on DVD and "New Moon" hit theaters, Summit made a profit of $145.1 million on revenue of $722.1 million.
2010 was a particularly successful year for Summit because not only was the third "Twilight" movie, "Eclipse," released in theaters, but both that picture and 2009's "New Moon" came out on DVD. Studios make most of their film profits from home entertainment sales and rentals.
In the first nine months of 2011, the most recent year for which Lions Gate released data, Summit's revenue plunged to $331.3 million and its net income was only $14.7 million. During that period, however, there were no "Twilight" releases.
The fourth "Twilight" movie was released last November and the fifth and final installment of the popular vampire series will be in theaters in November.

Kristen's Customized Vans For A Good Cause

2012-02-05T22:58:00.000-07:00

D.I.Y. Vans, win money for your school. (Plus, see Kristen Stewart's design!)

Confession: we’re all guilty of scribbling all over our Vans slip-ons. With a fresh white blank canvas, it’s kind of impossible not to- which is one of the reasons why these insanely comfy sneakers are a permanent staple in our closet. Turns out everyone from Kristen Stewart to Conan to Lucy Hale feel the same way, since they’re teaming up with the company for Vans Custom Culture, an outreach to raise money for educational art programs. They’ve lent their designs as inspiration for students everywhere to draw on their own pairs of sneakers for a chance to win $50,000 donation for their school. Besides the fact that it gives you a valid excuse to break out the markers and channel your inner 10-year-old, the contest is a total no-brainer because it’s for a good cause.

after the twilight

Since landing a major role in that  vampire movie series, Ashley Greene has  mastered the red carpet, battled paparazzi and become a DKNY muse and Mark makeup icon.  But she’s still got something to prove.

“I won’t lie, there are times when I’m like, ‘Why is this so hard?’ ” Ashley Greene is saying. “You come off a high like Twilightand then you get dropped back down to reality.”

We’re sitting in a cozy Italian restaurant near Times Square on a rainy winter evening, and Greene—who is best known for playing Alice Cullen, the cheeriest vampire in the Twilight saga movies—is laying out her game plan for making it even bigger in Hollywood.

“Twilight has given me something to skyrocket off of,” Greene says. “But now that it’s ending, there’s so much work to be done. And if I don’t do it, then Twilight’s all I’m ever going to be known for, as great as it is.”

Greene is dressed in all black, including a sleek, faux-fur Marc Jacobs vest, plus shadowy eye makeup—but somehow she doesn’t look at all goth. Instead she almost sparkles, like the moon or stars or werewolf eyes or something. Nonetheless, as she speaks, it becomes apparent that having a cult-like following at just 25 may not be quite as cool as it sounds. On the one hand, the throngs of obsessed fans make her feel like a superstar. They build adoring websites dedicated to her and fixate on every single thing she does (this category includes certain creepy folks who staked out her parents’ house in Florida and a paparazzo who once drove directly into her garage in L.A.). On the other hand, she still has to prove herself as a leading actress and audition for people who may not be Twilight fans—only now her competition is often big-time celebrities. “Basically I went from ‘dying to get a gig’ to ‘dying to get the gig that everyone wants,’ ” she says. “So now I’m in this realm with a lot of highly respected actresses, which is an amazing place to be, but also kind of terrifying.”

Greene is moving like mad to get what she wants: The fourth Twilight movie came out in November and grossed $138 million over the opening weekend; soon after that she shot four episodes of ABC’s Pan Am; this month she’ll costar in the quirky film Butter and appear in ad campaigns for DKNY and DKNY Jeans (“I love how Donna Karan designs for real women with curves,” Greene says); later this year she’ll appear in the final Twilight movie, take her first lead role, in a summer horror flick called The Apparition, as well as costar inLOL with Demi Moore and continue her gig as the global ambassador for Mark cosmetics. “I mean, I think I’m doing all right,” Greene says as raindrops pelt the restaurant’s windows. “But the main focus is trying to solidify my spot in Hollywood because, you know, I’m not there yet.”

This sense of insecurity has driven Greene—with good results—since childhood. “My mother put me in modeling classes because I had low self-esteem,” Greene says. “I was friends with older people, so I was always around someone more mature who boys responded to. I think that kind of messed with me.”

Greene’s mother would tell her, “You’re beautiful, and you just don’t know it.” But it didn’t help. “I was like, ‘You’re my mom, you have to say that!’ ” Greene says in a bratty teen voice. “She never actually wanted me to be a model; she just wanted me to feel good about myself. But then there was a chain reaction.” The modeling class led to acting classes. “All of a sudden I wanted to be an actor, and of course, my mother was like, ‘Oh, great, what did I do?’ ”

Greene memorized lines till midnight, practiced acting techniques, auditioned her heart out—and it worked: She landed an agent when she was 17. “And he said, ‘Okay, you have to come out to L.A. for pilot season,’ ” Greene recalls. “And I was like, ‘I’ll be there!’ ” The ultra-driven student already had enough credits to graduate, so she ditched the last half of her senior year and moved to Hollywood. Alone.

She went with her parents’ blessing—and agreement that if it didn’t work out in a couple of years, she would move back to Florida to go to college. In L.A., she spent her days taking acting classes and driving from one audition to another. “I actually cried the first time I drove on the freeway there,” Greene says, laughing. “It was raining, and it was so different from Jacksonville, and I just freaked out. I didn’t get back on the freeway for a month!”

Once she started to make new friends, she faced some classic Hollywood challenges—challenges not every young starlet has navigated so well. “I was like ‘Oh, I can go out and do this and do that,’ and it took me about five seconds to realize ‘If you do that, you’re not going to book jobs, and there are 10,000 girls who want your job.’ ”

“You mean like partying and stuff?” I ask.

“Yeah. It’s all glitz and glamour in Hollywood, and you want to be part of it. And the deadly thing is that you meet people who do have the money and do have fame and are in a position to not spend every waking moment working toward getting a job, and it’s easy to feel like you can do it too, when really you haven’t earned it. You can either socialize or you can study your script, and luckily I learned that pretty quick!”

She nabbed her first paying gigs after about a year: Crossing Jordan, followed by a brief appearance on Mad TV. And then right around the time her parents started to hint that maybe it was time to move back home, she auditioned for Twilight. “I’d fallen in love with the book, so I was like ‘I need to be part of this, and that’s all there is to it,’ ” Greene says. “I prepped as much as I possibly could.” She first read for the lead role of Bella—but lost out to Kristen Stewart. (She says she has no hard feelings about this now: “I honestly understood, and I always related more to Alice than to Bella.”) Then they called her back to try out for Alice, and … nothing. Early one morning a couple of months later, her phone rang. She ignored it. It rang again.

“I answered a little grumpily, but when my agent told me the news, I freaked out and called my parents—and my dad almost cried, which was kind of cool,” she says with a big smile. “My dad was a Marine; he doesn’t cry a lot.”

Like Alice Cullen, who can see into the future, Greene also has a secret talent: running in heels. “When I took the modeling classes in Florida, they had us walk in crazy heels and do the whole runway thing. And actually?” Greene says, laughing. “That’s been very helpful, because I can walk and run in pretty much anything! And they will have you run in heels in films, as ridiculous as it sounds.”

Greene sticks her leg out to show off some breathtakingly high, pointy black boots. “These actually aren’t that bad,” she says. “My stylist usually puts me in five-inch heels, it’s crazy.”

Her stylist happens to be Cristina Ehrlich, who has a particularly fashionable roster of celebrity clients, including Lady Gaga, the Olsen twins and Milla Jovovich. Greene met Ehrlich after the movie producer Joel Silver invited her to join him for the premiere of hisSherlock Holmes film in 2009, while they were working together on The Apparition. When Greene agreed, Silver suggested she meet with Ehrlich or some other stylists to plan her outfit.

“Were you insulted, like ‘I can style myself’?” I ask.

“No. Are you kidding me? I was like ‘Yes!’ ” she says, excitedly. “Listen, honestly, you don’t get sent L’Wren Scott if you’re just yourself. Cristina has those relationships with designers—and now I have access to them, too!”

Greene says she got “bit by the fashion bug” after she started going to fancy events forTwilight—when she immediately became enchanted with the magnificent clothes she got to wear. “My mom was so funny the other day, because I was saying, ‘You can wear this designer to this, but you can’t wear that designer to an afterparty.’ And she just started giggling and said, ‘Wow, you’ve really come into your own in this fashion world!’ ”

One awards show Greene attended turned out to be memorable for all the wrong reasons. Here’s how she tells it: “I wore a dress with boning that was zipped so tight it bruised my rib cage. It made this really beautiful tiny-waist silhouette with a kind of Old Hollywood glamour, but I could barely walk. To accept the award, I basically had to be carried up the stairs. And then I had to go to the bathroom, but when I got there I realized I couldn’t unzip the dress and I couldn’t pull it up. And I was already in the stall, which is the worst because then everything’s ready to go! Oh, and also my feet were numb because I was wearing these ridiculously high Brian Atwood heels that were beautiful but—it was just the most painful experience ever! I had to wait through the rest of the ceremony and then rush home afterward. So you should always make sure you can go to the bathroom before you go out.” She leans back and laughs.

In this month’s Butter, a comedy about a butter-carving competition, Greene expanded her repertoire in more ways than one: Not only was it her first comedy, it also involved her first love scene with a woman, Olivia Wilde. “It wasn’t that awkward,” Greene says about the makeout session. “It’s the same idea when you’re having to kiss a male costar and it’s not real. Olivia is such a cool chick and very professional. So we were just messing around and cracking up in between scenes, and it ended up being really fun.” She smiles. “And now I’m the envy of every straight male everywhere!”

With all the glamorous events and photo shoots and prepping for auditions—yes, she still stays home to read scripts over and over and over again—it’s not too surprising that Greene isn’t seeing anyone at the moment. While she has dated at least one famous guy (Google it), Greene says that her ideal partner isn’t necessarily in showbiz. “What’s most attractive to me is someone who has the same amount of drive as I do, someone who’s equally passionate about what they do, and equally busy,” she says. “But I think that would be a tall order.”

And anyway, Greene adds, she doesn’t need the distraction of a serious relationship right now—there are vampire-free movies to make, producers to woo and red carpets to step on in her five-inch heels. “I’m so laser-focused on my career, because when you’re dealt these cards, if you don’t kind of run with it, then you’re an idiot,” she says, before picking up her umbrella and heading out into the rain. “You’ve gotta take advantage of what you’ve been given.”

“This is a great example of a classic silhouette that’s sexy but not too revealing. I wouldn’t normally think of wearing this mustard yellow, but it actually goes nicely with my skin tone.”
“I tend to stay away from printed dresses, but this one just works! It’s not too overwhelming.”
“This outfit can go from day to night, just by swapping flats for heels. The pink shorts are playful, and this top is one of my closet essentials.”
“I love this bright, springy green and all the fun embellishments.”
“I love this pattern and the subtly sexy fit. The material is really light and comfortable for spring.”

“My toy fox terrier, Marlo, is always with me. She’s like my child, and she instantly brightens up everything.”

1. “I love traveling with my MacBook Air—it’s so light. And Audrey Hepburn is my screen saver because she’s the epitome of style and grace.”

2. “This is big enough to carry all my stuff, and I like the sleek, classic lines.”

3. “I swear by Mark makeup wipes—they’re just
damp enough—and Mark mascara, because it defines your lashes.”

4. “My iPhone is like my portable lifesaver. My parents now know how to text, so this is how we keep in touch.”

5. “I like hardback books, lists and writing my schedules down.”

Lucky, ash-greene
