SAN DIEGO — For the first time since 2007, there was no official “Twilight” presence at the Comic-Con panels this year. But screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg was in attendance, and she was more than willing to take a break from the convention to chat with MTV News about her upcoming work on “Breaking Dawn.” The two films are set to start shooting back-to-back in November, and Rosenberg said she is still working on finalizing the script.

What a difference a year makes. Last summer, Eminem’s comeback album, Relapse, held on to the top position on the Billboard albums chart for two weeks before beginning a slow downhill march that had it out of the top 10 within two months.

“Glee” star Jane Lynch put aside competitive cheerleading coach alter ego Sue Sylvester on Monday night and showed her (slightly) softer side as host of the 2010 VH1 Do Something Awards, which honor young people and celebrities for their charitable work and activism.

marrying Brian Austin Green earlier this summer, that had people talking.

Although you may not recognize him at first, Kevin Todd has been a part of many of the biggest moments of “The Hills.” He was standing by when Heidi and Lauren had that huge blow-up over that rumored LC sex tape. He witnessed the drama when Justin Bobby made out with another girl in front of Audrina. He was part of the festivities at the ladies’ 2006 New Year’s Eve bash and he has even presented Lauren with a cake at her birthday.

Taylor Lautner already plays one of the most recognizable onscreen characters as werewolf Jacob Black in the teen hysteria-inducing “Twilight” flicks. But another star thinks Lautner should put his ripped physique to good use in another role. “Wolverine” star Hugh Jackman says Lautner could convincingly don a pair of claws as a teen Wolverine in next year’s “X-Men: First Class.”
