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.

actually, I think that was likely decided after the last one in Los Angeles last year. Creation Entertainment let people from the audience yell out hateful stuff to both Rob and Kristen...made no effort to stop it. I don't  blame them for not wanting to return.

Maybe Kristen should be kept out of the appearances and the other cast members should be able to fulfill their obligations they are not guilty of anything and I feel bad for Robert and the wife and children of the man she cheated with for Kristen and Rupert Sanders should be ashamed of themselves if Kristen wanted to be with this older married loser she should of broke up with Robert first and this guy should of got a divorce but doing this behind someone's back is  disrespectful and disquieting neither one of these idiots are innocent they still would of been cheating and together if the paparazzi did not take those pictures and they wouldn't of got caught. Maybe she's not married to Robert but she should of said no to this guy because he was married with children his a scumbag.

What does her affair have to do with the price of tea in China??? Common now... The fact that she had an affair does not take away from the plot of Twilight. For goodness sake ITS JUST A MOVIE!!! The public needs to realize that movie roles are one thing and reality is something else. The fact the she messed up JUST LIKE REGULAR PEOPLE DO EVERYDAY, does NOT take away from her acting abilities and from the fact that the Twilight Saga is an excellent series, liked by millions of people.  At the same time ACTORS NEED TO REALIZE THAT THEY HAVE A CERTAIN OBLIGATION TO THEIR FANS REGARDLESS OF WHAT'S GOING ON IN THEIR PERSONAL LIVES.

 

My OPINION is EVERYONE NEEDS TO GROW UP!! LET THEM SORT OUT THEIR PROBLEMS, STOP JUDGING, AND ACTORS: GET OFF YOUR BEHINDS AND GIVE THE PUBLIC THE TIME AND ATTENTION THAT THEY NEED, YOU OWE IT TO THE PUBLIC!!!

This girl has the acting ability of a brick. Her face must be made of stone in order to pull off those performances. If her career is over it's a blessing for the entire world. The director must have mistaken her for a mannequin, therefore making any sexual encounter with her meaningless, just kinky. lol
