The blowup between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart is bringing more bad news for Twihards.

The former on- and off-screen couple will not attend the final four "Twilight" conventions, according to Creation Entertainment.

The company said that the pair, along with "Twilight" star Taylor Lautner, would not be part of upcoming shows in San Antonio (Aug. 25), Detroit (Sept. 29), Parsippany, N.J. (Oct. 5) and Los Angeles (Nov. 3).

FindIs the Stewart-Sanders scandal costing her any movie jobs?

The disclosure was made on the web site Zap2it.com. Creation's statement said in part: "Although Rob, Kristen and Taylor will not be with us this time out we will have a super lineup of other 'Twilight' stars and the weekend will be filled with special events, movie prop and costume displays, contests, panels, auctions, parties, exclusive merchandise, music and much more, including some surprises!"

The four "Twilight" films in which the two starred have grossed more than $1 billion at the worldwide box office for Summit Entertainment. The next film in the franchise, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 2)," will be released on Nov. 16.

Pattinson and Stewart s troubles came to light after she disclosed infidelities with married director Rupert Sanders, with whom she worked on "Snow White and the Huntsman."

Universal, which was planning a "Snow White" sequel, is considering other approaches but last week denied a report that the studio had dropped the actress from the project.

home wrecking whore has ruined her career. I know the married man is to blame also, but she had more to lose than him. He's a well off director whose married and surely has had other affairs, but he still gets to keep his celebrity credit, her on the other hand, will be looked at as a slut, and will lose a lot of her female fan base, and on top of all that some people are not going to risk working with her.

KARMA is a mutha!

These kids need to grow up and be more professional and stop acting like a couple of spoiled brats.

These two young people should put the differences aside,along with taylor lautner and show up to these events, because they should remember without the fans they would not be where they are today!

She made a mistake and owned up to it and said she was sorry!(She should be forgiven).

Has this not occured to anyone, except myself ,  this could be a publicity stunt?  Before this sequel was released,  I asked many who loved this series.  I was told over and again, getting tired of it, not sure I want to pay for another one, will wait until it is on cable, etc.

 

Hollywood has done this in the past, why not now?
