Tinsel Korey (aka Emily) expresses her thoughts on why those should watch the Hope for Haiti Now Telethon and donate. 

Why should I donate? I don’t know anyone in Haiti. Those are things people might be saying to themselves.

People were wondering why I’ve been trying so hard to help out with this telethon. I don’t know anyone in Haiti personally. The only relation I have to Haiti is from listening to Wyclef’s music for years; the vibrancy in his beats and the poetic sounds of his words have always captured a part of my soul. Haiti, from what I’ve read and heard, has long been a place of struggle. So it’s more heartbreaking to think that in an instant, it has become even harder.

Many thousands of people are believed to have died in last week’s earthquake, and thousands more were injured. Governments have sent in aid from all over the world, but it’s still not enough. Then the aftershocks hit, more buildings came down, and more people were hurt. Many of us watched, feeling helpless as image after image and video after video flashed before our eyes. So what can you do?

Donating money can help get medical supplies, food and shelter to people who are without the basic necessities. As a global society, it is our job as human beings to help one another in times of struggle and times of need. Haiti needs us — right now.

Chaske Spencer and Tinsel Korey gave an interview to Take40.com in Australia.  Chaske and Tinsel talked about how they got the role, paparazzi, Alex Meraz and Taylor Lautner dances off… plus much more!

Here’s a short transcript of the interview:

“Alex and Taylor were doing these dance offs…” she tells take40.com.

“Like a Michael Jackson video!” adds Chaske. “Taylor won,” Tinsel went on. “I love the Alex but Taylor won!”

Tinsel said there was a lot of testosterone on set. “They’re always showing off their muscles!”

“Yeah it’s kind of embarrassing…” Chaske says. “We’re in the make up room… and all of us are trying to check out our muscles going ‘We could work a little more on this… probably could lose a little more weight on that’”

“Coz they have to pay attention to that stuff, it’s not a vein thing. They’re supposed to be those massive werewolves,” adds Tinsel.

It is an excellent interview and I just can’t get enough of Chaske’s voice!  To listen to the full interview go to Take40.com.

We have another awesome fan write up from, this time from JacobIsMyHerion who attended the Twilight Convention in Chicago (2-4 Oct) with I Love Wolves, RIMR_ and WolfPackChick.

Here is what JIMH had to say:

I Love Wolves, RIMR_, WolfPackChick, and JacobIsMyHeroin (me!) met up from all corners of the country to attend Twi Con in Chicago last weekend.  We are all avid NMM.org and EM.org fans, this is where we all first met and became friends!  None of us had ever met anyone from the site in real life before, but we took a chance and decided to go on this crazy adventure together.  It turned out so great; we had an amazing weekend and wanted to share our experience with everyone.

More after the break…….

New Moon actress Tinsel Korey (aka Emily, Sam’s Fiancee) recently visited LaPush and Neah Bay school to speak to the Mekah children -

Tinsel Korey, the beautiful girl who plays the Makah character Emily in the upcoming “Twilight” series movie “New Moon” came to share her experience with Makah children on Thursday, Sept. 9 in the Neah Bay school gymnasium.
Korey is one of the Anishinaabe people, of the Great Lakes region. She was accompanied by her publicist, Jackie Jacobs, a Lumbee from North Carolina, and the Navajo photographer and videographer, Yazzie, who was documenting her tour of local tribal areas and towns associated with the book series.
Yazzie had also auditioned for the movie, in answer to a casting call that asked for “native Americans.” Korey herself doesn’t look like a Makah, but in a movie industry where native peoples have been played by everyone from Germans to Italians – and sometimes still are – the fact that the native characters are natives of any sort is a major step forward.

On a leg of the tour to the West End, Korey visited the Quileute village at LaPush. She soon realized that many of the tourists who were walking on Rialto beach, right beside the town, thought that the Quilleute nation was an imaginary invention of the Twilight series author, Stephenie Meyer.

Korey decided readers outside tribal society needed to know that the Quilleute are real people, with their own emotions and culture.

Korey said, “I was taught by my grandparents and ancestors we have a responsibility to share our gifts with our youth.”

You can read about the rest of her visit over at ForksForum.com!

[Thank you to everyone who sent this in! You are all freakin' awesome!]
