'Twilight' Has A New Promo Partner To Feature Prominently In 'New Moon' -- & It's A Whopper!
Tens of thousands of Twilighters at the San Diego Comic-Con this morning were greeted by Burger King representatives, strategically placed outside events promoting the franchise. The BK reps handed out paper folding "crowns" — a long-time trademark of the hamburger franchise.
But instead of featuring the King himself, the crowns featured the likenesses of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and others.<-----even creepier than the Rubber!King!
MTV can confirm that Burger King will be featured in the "New Moon" film via product placement, with its food products being consumed by the movie's stars — well, at least, those of them that can eat human food.
To help promote the tie-in, Burger King will soon begin distributing paper crowns in stores worldwide. One reads "Team Edward" and features Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the Cullen clan. The other reads "Team Jacob" and has Taylor Lautner staring seductively (Ewwww, gross LOL.) from the front of the crown, accompanied by photos of Stewart (also gross), and the shirtless Wolf Pack.
"Coming to Burger King Restaurants November 2009" reads the crowns, which are currently wrapped around the heads of thousands of Twilighters around the San Diego Convention Center.
Another interesting confirmation on the crowns? Near the bottom is the words "PG-13. Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13." Stay tuned for blood, Bella and burgers this November, as "Twilight" fans will be getting it their way.

1. So Forks is getting a BK? Sweet. Now 'poor Bella' won't have to eat at the diner with Charlie every night. Can SMeyer's cameo in New Moon be her working the drive-thru?!?!? PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
2. TEAM JASPER or TEAM ALICE, plzthnxbye.
3. There sure as hell better be ~dazzling~ shit in the kids meals.

Jacob is a Red Wings (*spit*) fan. I can't deal with shit like that. :P
And Emmett...
Ooooh, Emmett. He's so pretty, despite having the stench of the new 90210 on him... :P
I'm getting too damn old for this shit.
I 'hover' around the Twilight fandom for the lulz. It's all so RIDICULOUS lol.
Makes me really sorta glad I don't watch the movies? It's going to be painful.
See, if Jasper would've just eaten Bella @ the beginning of New Moon, the ~saga~ would've been 8327272020 times better :P
