If you couldn’t make it to one of the Twilight DVD release events with one of the stars this weekend, pretend you were there with this exclusive video report from NewMoonMovie.org chat masters Walking Disaster and Princess Kris.

After going through all these vids from this weekend–I just have one question….Ashley gave out like a bazillion hugs to fans. Does she have a gallon of Purell from Costco backstage to get hosed down with afterwards? I’m just saying this out of love, and my never-ending-fear of germs, but jeez–I would die from all the TwiSquee all over me from that many strangers!

Also, check out the cool pics from reader CraftyMama at her local release event. She made an amazing Alice costume! She says–

I went dressed as Alice in a dress I made. I even bought a wig! (My hair is blond and just below my shoulders) I won 1st place in the Alice look-a-like contest & 2nd over all.

UPDATE: Also meant to add this awesome vid that Elena sent in from NYC with Edi Gathegi, and for those wondering about Ashley Greene’s earrings, the wonderfully talented bloggers at Letters to Twilight have another account of the evening that might explain them!
