Extended "New Moon" Trailer Debuts During MTV's VMAs

Twilight stars Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart took the VMAs stage tonight to debut an extended trailer for the upcoming The Twilight Saga: New Moon — "a first look at a movie we've been working on for months," said Pattinson.

Q&A with Robert Pattinson: "There's only so much adoration you can take."

The trailer offers a look at the darker sequel to last year's blockbuster, which details what happens when Pattinson's vampire hunk Edward leaves his girlfriend, the mortal Bella (played by Stewart), who in turn looks to Lautner's character, the human-turned-werewolf Jacob. Fans also got a first look at the improved CGI in play for Jacob's mythical transformations, as well as glimpses of Dakota Fanning and Michael Sheen as evil vamps.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
