Romance Twilight fans get chance to cruise with vampire film stars

True Blood Cruise ? hmmm on the Red River in Shreveport ? From Guardian UK

Fans will get to hobnob with Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz, who play Alice and Emmett Cullen in the hit film, on a week-long cruise to the town where Twilight was shot

It sounds like the perfect setting for a trashy slasher flick: a group of teenagers book a trip-of-a-lifetime cruise around the stunning coastlines of Washington and Alaska, only to become suspicious when their fellow travellers all turn out to be unnaturally pale, spookily youthful types who appear to be obsessed by vampires.

Fortunately, the inaugural week-long Twilight fan cruise, which will set sail in August 2010, is only likely to be terrifying if you are the sort of person who has anxiety attacks at the thought of being stuck in a confined space with thousands of Robert Pattinson fans. Featuring a trip to the town of Falls, Washington, where Catherine Hardwicke's global hit was filmed, as well as guest appearances from stars Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz, who play members of the vampire family at the centre of Stephenie Meyer's bestselling books, it's being billed as "the ultimate convention at sea for Twilight fans".

It is so embarrassing to be old enough to afford that cruise, but immature enough to like books about abusive, sparkly 'vampires'.
