On the red carpet for the 61st Annual Emmy Awards, E! News kicked off a campaign to get Twilight‘s Robert Pattinson a hosting gig on Saturday Night Live.
“We would love to get Robert Pattinson,” said Seth Meyers. “How dare you tell me he’s the hot guy from Twilight, like I don’t already know! We’re actually hoping if he’s not available, at least his hair will come by and host.”
“Oh yeah, he’d be great,” said Kristen Wiig.
Dancing With the Stars dancers Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff were seen arguing loudly backstage before their performance at the 61st Annual Emmy Awards. Perez Hilton reports Chmerkovskiy was angry with his former fiancee for taking too long to do her hair and make-up.
“They were going at it, screaming at each other,” revealed an eyewitness.
Season nine of Dancing With the Stars premieres on ABC on Sept. 21. Smirnoff will be dancing with singer Aaron Carter, while Chmerkovskiy will be paired with actress Debi Mazar.
So You Think You Can Dance host Cat Deeley will be presenting an award at Sunday’s 61st annual Emmy Awards, but many say she should be among American Idol‘s Ryan Seacrest, Survivor host Jeff Probst, and Heidi Klum of Project Runway as a nominee for best reality show host.
At the G-Star Raw fashion show, Deeley told E! News two people had already told her she deserved a nomination in the 20 minutes since she’d arrived at the show.
“I’m a little bit nervous about it though,” said the Brit about presenting. “I’ve done it back in England, and I’ve hosted award shows back in England, but I’ve never actually done it before here. But I’m excited, you know? It’s a really exciting thing to do. I’m having a whole plethora of dresses coming in. I know I’ve got Matthew Williamson and [Burberry's] Christopher Bailey sending me over things so far, but I’m sure there’ll be more.”
