"Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are saving thousands of lives from cancer – by maintaining their pale complexions," Entertainment Daily writes quoting experts who argue the Twilight couple is promoting healthy skin by not showing off overexposure to sunlight.

The vampy fame surrounding vampires like "Edward Cullen" in Twilight and Alexander Skarsgard’s True Blood character "Eric" offers youth another side of beauty that doesn’t include exposing skin to harmful, UV rays. While Pattinson and Stewart aren’t the first celebs to go pale, Dr. Raj Mallipeddi says the pale skin pair has good celebrity pull with tweens and will ultimately help to reduce cancer rates.

“People have to want to resemble the individual giving the message," Dr. Mallipeddi said to The Daily Star. "If that image comes in vogue then people will follow suit and ultimately that could be better for people’s skin." Mallipeddi’s opinion is also supported by in-vogue cosmetics company, Urban Decay Cosmetics. A rep for the company, Eric Jimenz, agrees, saying, "Due to films such as Twilight, people see that pale skin can still be sophisticated, timeless and glamorous.”

Ironically enough, the UK is being led by celebrities like Kelly Osbourne and Nicole Roberts, to take a stand against tanning. Osbourne, who was lauded for her use of self-tanner on America’s Dancing with the Stars, went on to endorse a self-tanning lotion, St. Tropez..

"Must get to bed im shooting an ad for st. tropez tomorrow. Crazy I know who would have thought I would be the face of a spray tan!" the 25-year-old Kelly tweeted pre-shoot. Later adding, "This shoot is really fun just got my spray tan and I can’t get over how good it looks I’m not orange at all!"

LONDON – The intense war drama "The Hurt Locker" and the blockbuster sci-fi spectacle "Avatar" are squaring off at the British Academy Film Awards — a curtain raiser for their Academy Awards battle in Los Angeles next month.

British coming-of-age drama "An Education" is also a favorite for the London prizes, attended by a mix of homegrown celebrity and Hollywood imports.

Kate Winslet, Uma Thurman, Colin Firth, Dustin Hoffman and "Twilight" star Robert Pattinson are due to attend Sunday’s ceremony at London’s Royal Opera House, with Prince William in attendance to add real royalty to showbiz aristocracy.

William’s office said the prince would present an award, although it did not confirm the recipient. Media reports said it would a lifetime achievement honor to actress Vanessa Redgrave.

"Avatar," "An Education" and "The Hurt Locker" all have eight nominations, including best picture. "Avatar" director James Cameron and "Hurt Locker" director Kathryn Bigelow, former spouses turned awards-season rivals, are competing for best director.

WASHINGTON – Celebrities George Clooney and Oprah Winfrey and prominent lobbyists, corporate executives and Democratic fundraisers were among the first to score visits with President Barack Obama, his wife Michelle or top aides at the White House, newly released records show.

Girlfriends come and go for Justin Timberlake, but there seems to be some question whether his latest, Jessica Biel, is really gone.

Amid rumors that Timberlake and Biel have split, his grandmother, Sadie Bomar, told a British magazine that despite his two-and-a-half-year relationship with the actress, the only thing JT is really committed to is his career.

"Jessica was keen to marry, but Justin isn’t ready," Bomar told Closer earlier this month. "He’s busy writing new material and he works hard to be successful — he’s really focused on that. As far as we’re concerned, he’s always been single.

Viewers expressed mixed reactions Wednesday to "The Cove," a covertly filmed movie about a Japanese dolphin-hunting village that was shown to the Japanese public for the first time at the Tokyo International Film Festival.

Some were shocked but also defended the hunt as part of the country’s culture.

The film, added to the festival at the last minute partly because of international pressure, shows the annual hunt in the seaside town of Taiji, where about 2,000 dolphins are killed every year for their meat. Some are captured and sold to aquariums.

American director Louie Psihoyos, a National Geographic photographer, said he is in talks with Japanese distributors about nationwide screenings in Japan, where most people don’t know about the hunt and have never eaten dolphin meat.
