Twilight co-stars and real-life couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart had argument while re-shooting some final scenes for Eclipse.

She accused him right in front of the director and the crew for doing late night parties at burlesque bar. The source said, "He didn't take it well. They were both so angry, the crew had to take a break for an hour for things to be cool down.''

When several Eclipse cast members turned up to The Oprah Winfrey Show set, Oprah reportedly pulled Rob and Kristen aside and explained she would have to ask about their relationship on-air.

However, she agreed she would go lightly and let them give a "non answer" if they told the truth off screen.  Apparently, the couple confirmed they are "100% together.

Gisele: The Highest Paid Model in the world


Being a new mother has not slowed Gisele Bündchen down. With estimated earnings remaining at $25 million, she’s the world's top earning model once again.

In difficult economic times, agencies and magazines keep their A-list short. When companies do buy ads, they reserve the space for their proven talent. Despite the tough times, Bündchen, the 29-year-old Brazilian still rank No. 1 and retaining the top spots of the annual list - World's Top Earning Models according to estimated earnings from June 2009 to June 2010.

The 29-year-old Brazilian beauty married to NFL quarterback Tom Brady. She gave birth to the couple's first child in December.

As the world’s most sought-out face and body, Bündchen made an estimated $25 million in the past year. Aside from starring in campaigns for True Religion jeans, Dolce & Gabbana, Bündchen has her own skin care line and her own lucrative sandals brand — Ipanema by Gisele.

German sensation Heidi Klum is second with $16 million. From her modeling career into a television star, Project Runway, now in its seventh season but modeling always remains Klum's bread and butter. She continues to grace Victoria's Secret runways and starred in campaigns ranging from McDonald's in Germany to Volkswagen.

Kate Moss ranks third, with $9 million. Despite her well-publicized personal and professional ups and downs, Moss, 36, kept busy in the last 12 months. Aside from designing a fashion line for the British retailer Topshop, Moss released a new perfume, announced she's designing handbags for Longchamp and made headlines — starting a trend — by dying her hair with gray streaks. Moss remains the face of Versace, Longchamp and David Yurman, among others. In November she got flack from eating disorder support groups for telling Women's Wear Daily, "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."

Aniston having a baby food diet

A baby food diet consisting of 14 portions of pureed food a day is how Jennifer Aniston hopes to embody the phrase you are what you eat.

The diet has helped her lose 3kg. Despite her enviable body, Aniston is said to be insecure about her looks and flew in another personal trainer, Mandy Ingber, to have on the set of Just Go With It to make sure she held her own beside Decker.

Sources on the set confirmed her paranoia, telling the Daily Mail Aniston feared she might look old and out of shape in comparison. Also she is worried about working with a younger model.


Kristen Stewart is not miserable


Kristen Stewart has a tendency to look like she's sucking on lemons whenever she has her picture taken, but she insists she's not a sour puss - she's just shy.

"People say that I'm miserable all the time. It's not that I'm miserable it's just that [photographers are] yelling at me... I literally sometimes have to keep myself from crying... it's a physical reaction to the energy that's thrown at you," she tells E! Online.

"They think I'm nervous, uncomfortable, and awkward. And I am - but those are bad words for them." Well now we know she is just a shy girl.

The Cullen Family

Insiders say we’ll get to see a much darker side of the Cullen family in the next film. That we'll see when the film actually will hit the cinema but right now we are all bursting with curiosity about what happens in the third instalment, Eclipse.

"Alice gets a little edgier with each instalment. It's a reminder to the audience that even though we restrain ourselves at times, we're still vampires and we're dangerous” says actress Ashley Greene, who plays the sweet and bubbly character of Edward’s sister Alice.

Esme Cullen, the matriarch of the Cullen household played by Elizabeth Reaser also brings out a more fiery side.

"It was interesting to get in touch with the vampire side of her in ways that haven't really been explored. Her family is in danger and that brings out the mama bear in her” says Elizabeth.

We can’t wait, a new Twilight fix is long overdue! Eclipse hits Australian cinemas on the 1st of July 2010.
