LYRICS:
I wanna be a Vampire so freakin’ bad
and bite all of the girls I never had.
I wanna be on the cover of Fangs Magazine
smiling next to Edward and Sookie.
Oh every time I close my eyes
I scream that I will never die
A different blood-type every night,
Oh I, I swear
The world better prepare,
For when I’m a vampire.
Yeah, I would have a cape like Dracula
Sneak up from the back of ya,
Everyday Halloween
Popular with all the teens
I’ll probably pull an alice cullen and emmett
and hook up with my siblings just for the heck of it.
Give away a few t-shirts that say “Suck It”
and last but not least grant somebody their last wish
You can call me Count von Count from the ‘Street, though
I’m not purple and I got no hand up my bum hole.
Get it? Can’t wait to bite on some Twi-moms
they all seem to want to get it on in my coffin
I’ll make sure to choose my victims with care
and there’ll be smokin’ hot 100-year-old cougars everywhere!
Oh every time I close my eyes
I dream that I will never die
A different blood-type every night,
oh I, I swear
The world better prepare,
for when I’m a vampire.
I’ll be buyin’ up Transylvanian real estate
avoiding all the wooden stakes
Ain’t got time for all of that furry werewolf patty-cake
Poof of smoke, and then i’ll fly away like a crazed bat
And sparkle while running through the woods giving piggy-backs
And, yeah, everyone will think that I’m real gay
But they’ll all be dead by my 200th birthday.
I’ll probably suck the most of all the vampires you know
and have a thousand hook-ups with the girls that are emo.
And all the other vampire starlets
could rest in peace once we rid the world of all garlic.
I know we’ve all gotta similar thirst
for finding tasty necks, so sink your teeth in for the blood burst
I wanna Vampire so freakin’ bad
and bite all of the girls i never had.
I wanna be on the cover of Fangs Magazine
smiling next to Edward and Sookie (What up Sookie!)
Here is the latest Podcast epsiode. This week we discuss all of the Twilight movies, each director, soundtrack, what we liked/didn’t like, the Twilight parody Vampires Suck & Rob and the paprazzi issues that have been doing the rounds online. Please listen & we hope you enjoy!!
Last year Robert Pattinson was named Glamour Magazine’s Sexiest Man 2009 – who will take the title this year? Noticeably missing from the Twilight cast is Peter Facinelli & Jackson Rathbone (who the more I see of the more I like) Let us know who you will vote for and who you think is missing from the list?
Xavier Samuel:
Age: 26 Single? Xavier Samuel (aka Riley in new Twilight movie Eclipse), turned up to the London premiere with Iranian girlfriend Shermine Shahrivar. Sorry folks… See Him Next: Xavier is currently in the process of filming Anonymous, a political thriller that attempts to discover who really wrote the works of Shakespeare. Sounds a tad heavier
Age:18 Single?Yes – after splitting with namesake Taylor Swift at the end of last year. See Him Next:The hottest werewolf on the block can be seen baring his claws (and chest, we hope) in the latest Twilight film Eclipse. After that, it’s a long, cruel wait until the next episode, Breaking Dawn Part 1, is out in November 2011. How will we cope?
Age: 25 Single?The Twilight star Kellan Lutz has been dating his equally hot girlfriend Anna Lynne McCord OF Beverly Hills 90210 fame for quite some time. Darn it. See Him Next:In romantic flick Love, Wedding, Marriage, or, if you can wait that long to see him again, he’ll be starring alongside Twilight co-actress Ashley Greene in the 2011 film Warrior.
Age: 24 Single? Robert is allegedly dating his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart, but we’ll leave it up to you to work out whether the rumours are true or not. We’re hoping he’s still on the market… See Him Next: In Bel Ami, a film adaptation of a French novel, where he’ll be acting alongside Uma Thurman and Christina Ricci. Ooh la la!
Now I know he isn’t part of Twilight, but he is a ‘vampire’ and a hawt one at that, so I’ve included him
Ian Somerhalder
Age: 31 Single? After splitting up with Ashley Greene last year, the world’s second sexiest vampire has apparently turned his affections towards his Vampire Diaries co-star Nina Dobrev. Or is it Lost co-star Elizabeth Mitchell, as he revealed in a GQ.com interview recently? Bah, who knows. Let’s pretend he’s single anyway… See Him Next: In suitably gothic movie Cradlewood, which is due for release in 2011.To vote for Ian, click hereSource: Glamour Magazine

We at Twilightseries.co.za and all in South Africa, would like to wish Gil Birmingham a wonderful birthday today May you have a memorable day and many more! I’m so glad I got to meet you last month – stay as wonderful as you are Add your wishes too
Gil Birmingham, was born on 13 July 1966, in San Antonio, Texas, where he spent his formative years moving from state to state, due to his father’s career in the military. As the eldest of five children, Gil grew up in many locations, including Alaska, Hawaii and Kentucky, eventually ending up in California where he now calls home. His musical aspirations began at age 10, when he first picked up a guitar and learned to play. Since then, he has traveled across the country, singing and playing guitar with various bands. Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix served as the early inspiration for Gil’s musical style, which ranges from Blues and R&B, to Rock.
After graduating cum laude from the University of Southern California with a B.S. degree in Administration, he embarked on a career in petrochemical engineering. Gil began bodybuilding and soon entered a number of bodybuilding contests. His sculpted physique led to his first acting experience when he was cast opposite Diana Ross in her music video,Muscles. After his on camera debut, Gil’s acting became an extension of the creative expression of his music. While studying acting with Larry Moss and Charles Conrad, he played Conan the Barbarian at Universal Studios Hollywood.
Gil made his television debut in an episode of Riptide, and went on to star in television shows, including an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Gil appeared as a series regular in the medical drama Body & Soul, starring Peter Strauss. In 2002, he received a First American in the Arts (FAITA) award for an “Outstanding Performance in a Recurring Role” for his portrayal of a hospital intern in Body & Soul. TV viewers have seen him in guest appearances on Veronica Mars, where he played shady casino owner Leonard Lobo. More recently, Gil appeared in the comedy improvisation show 10 Items or Less, as John Greene, and in Nip Tuck as a tribal shaman.
On film, Gil starred with Dean Cain in Gentle Ben 1 and 2. His Native American Comanche ancestry has brought him numerous roles, such as the alcoholic, abusive father in Skins. A pivotal role for Gil came as Manny Deadmarsh in The Doe Boy, which won the Sundance International Filmmaker’s Award in 2001.
In 2005, Gil won the American Indian LA Film and Television Award for “Outstanding Supporting Role” in Dreamkeeper, a two-part miniseries, for his portrayal of Sam. In the role, Gil captured the feelings of a father who had made regrettable choices, yet who desperately sought to reconnect with his son. After the success of Dreamkeeper, Gil played Sharp Claw in the Hallmark Hall of Fame movie, Love’s Long Journey.
Cast by Stephen Spielberg in the six-part miniseries Into the West, Gil offered a gripping portrayal of the older Dogstar. One of his many fine performances, he adeptly portrayed Dogstar from adulthood through his elderly years. It is through his eyes, that viewers witness the atrocities and devastation that occurred at Wounded Knee in 1890.
After Into the West, Gil switched gears to play Moipa, a vengeful tribesman in End of the Spear. In addition to film roles, Gil’s voiceover work includes theWild Thornberrys, Night at the Museum, and a yet-to-be-released animated film, Turok, Son of Stone.
Longing to battle vampires again after his taste in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gil joined the werewolf pack as Billy Black, chief of the Quileute tribe, in the blockbuster hit, Twilight, a film based on the best-selling series written by Stephenie Meyer. As Jacob Black’s father, Billy, confined to a wheelchair, is a descendant of a long line of magical chieftains. Gil found working with director Catherine Hardwick to be one of the best experiences in his career. Honored to be among a cast of talented young actors, such as Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner, Gil will return as Billy for the sequel, New Moon.
Gil recently filmed The Love Ranch, starring Helen Mirren and Joe Pesci, directed by Taylor Hackford. The movie is a true story about the married couple who founded the first legal brothel in Nevada in 1975. Gil plays the corrupt Sheriff Johnny Cortez, who is Joe Pesci’s right-hand man. In January of 2009, Gil finished shooting an animated film called Rango, staring Johnny Depp. The film is due out in theaters in 2011.
Currently, Gil is working on a number of new projects that span both stage and screen. In what little spare time he has, he continues to pursue his music, which is essential to his spirit. Gil enjoys embracing nature and the unbelievable beauty of mother earth, whether it be in the California mountains or in the incredible tropical setting of Hawaii. His work has allowed him to visit many parts of the world, where he enjoys exploring different cultures and sharing our connection as human beings to all things.
