Okay so a lot of you probably want me to just shut up about Twilight already, but I can’t - so bite me (no pun intended)!

I’m so excited!  The movie officially comes out tonight at midnight, and if I weren’t so stinking old (and already in bed) I’d be at that show!  I am, however, seeing it tomorrow at noon. I’ve been reading reviews all day, and the only critic review was the one I posted earlier from Entertainment Weekly.

From what I’ve gathered from people who have seen the film already, they’ve all said it doesn’t stick to the book as much as they would have liked. But I think that’s usually the case when you have a movie based off a book. I’m not going in - expecting to see the exact book I read. I understand there are some differences. And when you have such a cult following - like this movie - people feel personally connected to the book. I think it’s hard to not disappoint some fans.

I can’t remember the last time I was this pumped, this excited to see a movie. I just finished Eclipse last night around 11:00 - and I LOVED it. I was a bit disappointed with New Moon, but Eclipse was much better. I’m going to start Breaking Dawn tonight - and it’s going to be sad! I’ve been really enjoying these books - I don’t want them to end!

Are any of you seeing Twilight tonight or tomorrow?

I love him (but wow, what’s with the hair!), can’t stand her!

on’t expect wedding bells for Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal any time soon.

“Family is all we have in life, but I don’t know how I feel about marriage,” the actress, 32, reveals in the Nov. 23 issue of Parade. “Obviously, I’m not far enough out of being married to think about doing it again.”

Witherspoon split from her husband of 7 years, Ryan Phillippe, in 2006. They have two kids together: Ava, 9, and Deacon, 5. She’s been dating Gyllenhaal, 27, since April 2007.

The Academy-award winning actress isn’t sure she’ll ever be ready to say “I Do.”

“I don’t know,” she says in the newest issue of Us Weekly, on stands now. “I don’t think about it much…it’s important to stay open to whatever your relationship evolves into. I have a certain idea of what I thought marriage is and the whole life and [the way] things are, and sometimes it doesn’t work out that way.”

She admits that her split from Phillippe was tough.

“There are things in my life that are hard to reconcile, like divorce. Sometimes it is very difficult to make sense of how it could possibly happen,” she says.

“Laying blame it so easy. I don’t have time for hate or negativity in my life. There’s no room for it,” she adds. “When you make wrong choices, you have to take responsibility for them: ‘What part of this do I own?’

“I struggle to figure out what made me make those choices,” she says. “All I can hope for is that I’ve learned something from it and won’t make the same choices again.”

She says she made a lot of mistakes when she was young.

“I wasn’t good about protecting myself,” she explains. “I spent a lot of my 20s just trying to make other people happy, rather than trying to figure out if doing that made me happy.”

Witherspoon also says her fame makes it hard to connect with people.

“When I first meet someone, it is so hard for me to overcome everything they’ve read about me,” she says in Parade. “It’s not fair. It’s difficult, because I’m the kind of person who just wants to hug people.”

Her next movie, Four Christmases, hits theaters Nov. 26.

Since splitting with 82-year-old Hugh Hefner recently, The Girls Next Door star Holly Madison has never looked more fresh-faced and beautiful. The inspiration behind her make-under? A new beau — bad-boy illusionist Criss Angel — and a new life, Holly tells Life & Style exclusively.

“I think the breakup is partially the reason,” says the 30-year-old, who has traded her heavy foundation, fake lashes and lip gloss for just a hint of blush and eyeliner. “The truth is, I barely wear lip gloss anymore because I’m always making out with my boyfriend, so it comes off in two-and-a-half seconds,” she says, adding with a laugh, “Apparently, I wasn’t making out with Hef as much.”

And Holly’s new man, Criss, 40 — star of the Las Vegas show Believe — is all for her updated look. “He doesn’t like me in a lot of makeup,” says Holly, “and I appreciate that.”

Official proceedings in the Madonna-Guy Ritchie divorce will begin Friday in in London, The Associated Press reports.

London’s High Court lists “Ciccone M L v Ritchie G S” as one of 16 cases for “matrimonial and civil partnership causes for pronouncement of decree.” The two — who announced they were calling it quits Oct. 15 after 7 1/2 years of marriage — most likely will not be in court.

After a judge grants the couple a preliminary divorce decree tomorrow, their split should be finalized in about six weeks.

Meanwhile, Britain’s Evening Standard reports that the two have reached a settlement and that Ritchie will not accept any of Madonna’s money.

But Ritchie has insisted on sharing custody of the couple’s two children, Rocco, 8, and adopted son David, 3.

An announcement about the couple’s divorce is expected to be made at the end of the month, the newspaper said.
