It seems only fair that “The Twilight Saga,” which has been sweeping fan-voted award shows continuously since they first hit the scene in 2008, should win the “Most Obsessive Fans” award at the 2010 Teen Choice Awards. Who, Twilighters? Never in a million years!
Ashley Greene accepted the surfboard award, saying, “You guys are so fantastic and amazing and I can’t thank you guys enough for being there for us. I know we all really, really appreciate you guys.” But she knew the real person fans wanted to hear something from — and the real reason they are so obsessive — was Robert Pattinson, and she tried to get him to come up to the mic.
Rob isn’t always the most camera-happy person when it comes to award shows, so he tried to get Taylor Lautner to join him in saying thanks, and when that didn’t work, tried to get the entire cast. Neither were very effective, so Rob ended by saying, “Thank you guys so much for everything. It’s amazing. Thank you very much.”
The Obsessive Fans award was just one of many awards given to the “Twilight Saga” stars thanks to those very fans. Rob and Kristen Stewart won “Choice Movie: Liplock” and “Choice Movie: Chemistry” for “New Moon,” Kristen won “Choice Movie Actress: Fantasy” and “Choice Summer Movie Star: Female,” and Rob won “Choice Movie Actor: Drama” for “Remember Me” and “Choice Summer Movie Star: Male.”


Unlike at the MTV Movie Awards, the other actors in the film weren’t ignored for their work, and pretty much everyone received an award for something. Taylor received “Choice Movie Actor: Fantasy” (sorry RPattz!), “Choice Male Hottie” (press play above to see that acceptance speech!) and “Choice Smile,” Ashley won “Choice Scene Stealers: Female” and Kellan Lutz won “Choice Scene Stealer: Male,” while Rachelle Lefevre finally won some recognition as “Choice Movie Villain.”
Last but not least, both “Twilight Saga” films were recognized at the Teen Choice Awards. “New Moon” won “Choice Movie: Fantasy” and “Eclipse” won “Choice Summer Movie.” Fanatic fans, indeed. This was definitely “The Twilight Saga’s” year to rule.
Are you surprised “The Twilight Saga” swept the Teen Choice Awards? Do you think they deserved their obsessive fans award?
2010 Emmy Nominees Announced!

The kids of Glee have something to sing about. The 2010 Emmy nominations were announced this morning and as expected, Glee led the pack with 19 nominations. The show had even more steam than expected, earning nominations for Outstanding Comedy Series plus acting nominations in all six categories (Matthew Morrison, LeaMichele, Chris Colfer, Jane Lynch, Mike O’Malley, Neil Patrick Harris and Kristin Chenoweth).
The comedy side also saw newcomers Nurse Jackie and Modern Family crack the Comedy Series category. Modern Family picked up an impressive five acting nominations in the supporting categories, with Ed O’Neill the only adult star who didn’t get nominated.
On the drama side, Mad Men led the pack with 17 nominations, but there were some big surprises for network shows. Lost scored a nomination for Drama Series in its final season and star Matthew Fox managed to get his first nomination for Lead Actor. The show also got nominations for Terry O’Quinn, Michael Emerson and a guest actress nomination for Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliet). The shows 12 nominations ties the number it scored for the first season.
And after being ignored for so long, Friday Night Lights stars Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton were both nominated in the lead acting categories. The Good Wife also made a huge splash with nominations for Drama Series, Lead Actress (Julianna Margulies) and two for Supporting Actress (Christine Baranski and Archie Punjabi).
The guest acting races include a lot of double nominees, including NPH (who scored noms for Glee and How I Met Your Mother), Jane Lynch (Two and a Half Men), Tina Fey (hosting SNL), Jon Hamm (30 Rock) and Christine Baranski (The Big Bang Theory). All the ladies will have to fend off the beloved Betty White, who earned a nomination for hosting SNL.
In one of the most amusing categories, Conan O’Brien’s Tonight Show was nominated for Variety Series, beating Jay Leno’s version and putting Hollywood squarely on Team Coco.

The event, which Everybody Hates Chris‘ adorable Tyler James Williams hosted, also featured stars from the music world. Phenoms Miley Cyrus and Leona “Bleeding Love” Lewis accepted the special event award for Stand Up 2 Cancer, which aired in Sept. with a celeb-studded lineup of artists and celebs.

TVGuide.com’s Top Emmy Moments
Posted on: September 22, 2008
TVGuide.com’s Top Emmy Moments
1. Best diss: “At this point I was planning on doing a few more jokes, but Katherine Heigl told me my material wasn’t Emmy worthy.” – Conan O’Brien.
2. Best demand: Kathy Griffin ordering everyone to “GET UP!” for Don Rickles. Can we get Kathy to host next year?
3. Most miscast: Josh Groban performing a medley of 30 of TV’s most famous theme songs. Granted, he did Cartman and his Baywatch run superbly well, but couldn’t they just have played these songs?
4. Most heartwarming tribute: Ray Romano, Patricia Heaton, Doris Roberts and Brad Garrett yelping Frank Barone’s famed “Holy crap!” as part of TV’s most memorable catchphrases. RIP, Peter Boyle.
5. Most awkward opening: Wanting to bring “reality” to the Emmys, the five hosts — Ryan Seacrest, Tom Bergeron, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel and Jeff Probst — opened with absolutely nothing prepared and it was positively painful. Did no one get the memo that these guys aren’t stand-ups? Plus, it didn’t help to follow Oprah and to be followed by the dynamic duo of Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Note to Emmy producers: humorless banter does not keep viewers.
6. Best example of a comedy performance: Tom Bergeron dropping Heidi Klum onto the stage, which definitely looked like it hurt.
7. Most painful reminder: Martin Sheen telling us he never won an Emmy for The West Wing. At least he has one for guesting on Murphy Brown…that’s not the same, is it?
8. Best political statement: Stephen Colbert: “I think right now, America needs a prune.”
9. Best reunion: Sally Field presenting the Outstanding Miniseries Emmy to John Adams’ producer Tom Hanks. “You know, mom always said…” Oh, why didn’t you finish that sentence, Tom?
10. Best backhanded compliment: “Haven’t they been sufficient?” Jimmy Kimmel on the five reality host nominees and Emmy hosts. “Sufficient” is too kind, Jimmy.
11. Most unnecessarily drawn-out segment: The presentation for reality host. Did we really need to spread this out over a commercial break? Who do you think you are? American Idol?
12. Best passing of the torch: Nothing was more fab than Mary Tyler Moore and Betty White awarding this generation’s comedienne extraordinaire Tina Fey for Outstanding Comedy Series.

Emmys 2008: The Best Dressed Stars
See which small screen celebs – Heidi! America! – dazzled and dared on TV’s biggest night.
Emmys: Amazing Red Carpet Moments
From Christina Applegate’s return to Rainn Wilson’s wave, see who made a scene before the ceremony even started
‘John Adams’ sets record
HBO’s “John Adams” has won 11 Emmys overall. The miniseries received 23 nominations.
var CNN_ArticleChanger = new CNN_imageChanger(‘cnnImgChngr’,'/2008/SHOWBIZ/TV/09/21/emmy.awards/imgChng/p1-0.init.exclude.html’,3,1);
//CNN.imageChanger.load(‘cnnImgChngr’,'imgChng/p1-0.exclude.html’);
The HBO program, which led all nominees with 23 nods, also earned trophies for Paul Giamatti, Laura Linney, Tom Wilkinson and writer Kirk Ellis.
“Mad Men” was named best drama.
The NBC sitcom “30 Rock” was named best comedy series as part of its seven Emmys overall. Creator Tina Fey got two — one for writing, one for acting — and lead actor Alec Baldwin also won. Gallery: See the stars on the red carpet
“The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report” ruled the Emmys among variety/comedy/music programs, with “Colbert” winning for its writing and “Daily” winning best overall.
The award was the sixth straight for “The Daily Show.” Blog: Behind the scenes at the Emmys
A predecessor in the topical “Daily”/”Colbert” tradition, “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” earned an Emmy 40 years late.
Comedian Tommy Smothers, onetime “Smothers Brothers” scribe Steve Martin pointed out, left his name off the list submitted to the Emmys for the writing award in 1969 so as not to inflame their attitudes at a time when the ever-topical Smothers show was the subject of controversy. When the show’s staff won, Smothers was left out.
Smothers accepted emotionally, concluding his speech, “There’s nothing more scary than watching ignorance in action. So I dedicate this to add the people who feel compelled to speak out … to speak truth to power.”
Another comedy veteran, Don Rickles, picked up an award for “Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project.”
“I’ve been in the business 55 years, and the biggest award I got was an ashtray from the Friars in New York,” Rickles said, offering several more zingers in his acceptance. Earlier in the evening, when Rickles came out with Kathy Griffin to present an award, Griffin demanded the audience “GET UP!” — and it responded with a standing ovation for the 82-year-old comedian.
In a surprise, “Breaking Bad’s” Bryan Cranston defeated “Mad Men’s” Jon Hamm and “House’s” Hugh Laurie to win best actor in a drama.
Don’t Miss
Glenn Close won best actress in a drama for “Damages.”
Jeremy Piven won his third straight Emmy Sunday night, for best supporting actor in a comedy for his performance in “Entourage.”
Interactive: List of winners »
Piven poked fun at the odd opening by five reality show hosts before thanking the audience for his award.
“What if I just kept talking for 12 minutes — what would happen? That was the opening,” he said.
The five hosts began the 60th annual Primetime Emmy Awards by doing … nothing.
Ryan Seacrest, Tom Bergeron, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel and Jeff Probst — with the 5-foot, 9 ½-inch high-heeled Klum towering over her fellow hosts — spent a few minutes doing some bizarre vamping, admitting they hadn’t prepared an opening. They followed a gracious Oprah Winfrey, who paid tribute to the television medium by observing that “television helped open up my world.”
Probst won the award for best reality show host. “The Amazing Race” was named best reality-competition show for the sixth straight year.
Ricky Gervais received more laughs than the hosts for a segment in which he berated Steve Carell for stealing the Emmy Gervais won last year.
“Have you been to see ‘Ghost Town’ yet?” he demanded, referring to his new movie. “I went to see ‘Evan Almighty.’ Give me my Emmy.”
