'Twilight' Best Kiss Nominee Was Born On Catherine Hardwicke's Bed
MTV continues its coverage on everything Twilight in anticipation for tonight's awards show. While touring her house, Catherine Hardwicke showed the MTV crew her bed, where Rob and Kristen auditioned. Catherine Hardwicke takes pride in doing things differently than most directors. For years, she's held "chemistry reads" at her house, switching out various actors while making them feel at home. And, as is now the stuff of "Twilight" legend, 18 months ago she invited two young actors named Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart into her bedroom. "This is the bed. That's where we had the first kiss between Rob and Kristen," Hardwicke beamed on Thursday when we visited her home just blocks from the beach, to celebrate such MTV Movie Awards moments as the Best Kiss nominee born on her own personal bed. "We did the audition — the chemistry read — here to see if these two would have chemistry. To see if their kiss would be exciting and cool.
