Kellan Lutz has Gisele Bundchen’s back.

The supermodel’s been taking some heat this week for an email she sent to friends and family asking them to pray for husband Tom Brady as he prepares to lead the New England Patriots in Sunday’s Super Bowl.

Lutz doesn’t understand why people would have anything nasty to say about that.

“I found [Bundchen's email] very endearing, very sweet,” the actor told reporters at an Audi Super Bowl party.

He added, “To have a wife do that for her husband and give that positive energy, I think we all need that in the world.”

Lutz was baffled to hear “newscasters blast that and really just be negative” about it.

Do you agree?

During MTV’s New Year’s Eve broadcast, it was officially announced that “Punk’d” is returning on March 19.

As Gossip Cop reported back in August, the hidden-camera show will feature a series of rotating hosts, including Justin Bieber, Kellan Lutz, Bam Margera, and former “Punk’d” star Dax Shepard.

In the preview aired during MTV’s New Year’s Eve celebration, “Punk’d” guest host Miley Cyrus, along with pal Kelly Osbourne, pull a prank on Khloe Kardashian in which a food delivery man uses Cyrus’ bathroom, and gets his balls caught in his zipper.

“Punk’d” is produced by former host and creator Ashton Kutcher.

What a joke.

A few weeks ago, HollywoodLife invented the rumor about Robert Pattinson possibly using a body double in Breaking Dawn‘s sex scene.

It was baseless speculation, and Gossip Cop busted it.

That was on June 9.

Three weeks passed.

Spring became summer.

And now, today, HollywoodLife claims to have “solved” the “mystery” behind the sex scene!

Hooray!

The site points to a Kellan Lutz interview with MTV in which Lutz talks about Pattinson training hard for the movie, and laughs off rumors that he served as a muscle “double” in the sequel’s shirtless scenes.

“We’re glad this issue has finally been cleared up,” declares HollywoodLife.

Yeah, what a relief!

Uh… except there WAS no “issue” until HollywoodLife MADE it an issue, let it linger for weeks, and then pretended to resolve it.

Gossip Cop thinks HollywoodLife should leave the busts to us and resume inventing the rumors and fake stories for which it’s famous.

Britney Spears and her agent boyfriend Jason Trawick hit up the red carpet last night in Beverly Hills to support her Southern Style St. Bernard Project event.

The proud Louisiana native, looking smashing in a yellow Herve Leger dress, hosted a Southern-influenced dinner to benefit victims of Hurricane Katrina.

While Spears and Trawick have been dating for over two years and attended a number of events together (such as the 2010 Grammys), they rarely pose together as a couple on the red carpet.

Other guests at the event included Kellan Lutz, Shenae Grimes, Hilary Duff, Mike Comrie, Kim Kardashian and Victoria Justice.

Spears’ father Jamie catered the Southern feast.

To support the pop star’s Hurricane Katrina cause, you can text BRITNEY to UNITED (864833) to donate $10 to the project.

Kellan Lutz is the new face of Dylan George jeans, and will also have a hand in designing for the premium denim label.

The new sub-brand, called Abbot & Main, will also feature men’s T-shirts and knits when it launches next fall.

Lutz will collaborate with label founder Daniel Guez on the design aesthetic.

“How cool will that be to create my own line? I grew up wanting to be an inventor,” the Twilight actor tells WWD. “I went to school for chemical engineering. I love to create. I’ve always wanted to get into fashion. I’ve always liked drawing, not Space Age stuff but high fashion.”

The hunky star has modeled for Calvin Klein in the past and will soon be starring as sea god Poseidon.

AnnaLynne McCord and Kellan Lutz are over, confirms a mutual pal of the “90210″ star and Gossip Cop.

“No, they’re not together anymore,” says our impeccable source.

Speculation that McCord and the Breaking Dawn star had broken up began Saturday night when the actress hosted a Halloween party at Lavo in Las Vegas, and was spotted holding hands with model Aaron O’Connell.

According to our insider, McCord and Lutz parted ways about a month ago.

Since then, McCord has been “dating,” says our source, stressing it’s too early to call O’Connell her boyfriend.

What do you think of McCord and Lutz splitting up?

Kellan Lutz is “a wild child,” says his “90210” girlfriend AnnaLynne McCord.

Though the couple for a while dodged the question of whether or not they were dating, McCord told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show today that she’s “very with” the Twilight star.

And while she wouldn’t elaborate, McCord did spill that Lutz is “crazy in a different way” than she is. She said, “He’s just a wild child.”

Despite Seacrest’s efforts to get her to say she wears the pants in their relationship, McCord only offered that they “share the control.”

The actress also noted that her man is currently relaxing in Israel. McCord half-joked, “Before the 75th Twilight comes out, he has five minutes of a break.”

It’s been easy for Kellan Lutz to get noticed by young women everywhere, but now a teenage girl’s won his attention — for all the wrong reasons.

Today the Twilight actor tweeted his outrage with the Bosnian girl captured on video tossing puppies into a river.

“I’ve never been so disgusted before,” writes Lutz. “That video is so incredibly disturbing and plain out wrong.”

The infamous clip, which horrified viewers worldwide before being pulled from YouTube, shows a blonde girl in a red sweatshirt taking black and white puppies from a bucket and hurling them, one after the other, into the water.

“That cruelty and any cruelty to animals helpless or not is unacceptable,” continues Lutz. “I can’t get the crying puppies out of my head.”

Reportedly, the girl has been identified and now will face local authorities. Bosnia recently passed new animal protection laws that spell out hefty fines for cruel treatment.

Lutz, who has done work in the past with animal rights group PETA, later tweeted his appreciation that police believe they’ve caught the perpetrator.

“I’m so grateful that she has been found and even more grateful for the new law! Thank you ALL for taking a stand and using your voices against such actions as this,” tweeted Lutz.

He was not the only Hollywood figure to be revolted by the video.

Earlier this week, before reports emerged that she’d been apprehended, Transformers director Michael Bay offered a $50,000 reward for information on the puppy thrower.

A Canadian paparazzo is at the center of a hit-and-run investigation involving Twilight star Kellan Lutz.

According to court documents, Lutz claims he was hit by a car while on the Montreal set of his film Immortals this summer, and the actor now fears for his safety.

Allegedly, neither the driver of the car nor its occupants stayed at the scene, and now police are trying to identify whether paparazzo Richard Fedyck was the driver.

In July, Montreal police filed a request for a copy of Fedyck’s driver’s license, in hopes of using the photo to either identify or eliminate him as a suspect in the reported hit-and-run.

Fedyck, when contacted by CBC News, admitted he witnessed the accident but denied being the driver. Fedyck also said he hadn’t yet been contacted by police.

No charges have been filed.

“Torn apart by money,” reads the headline of a piece in In Touch, which claims the cast of Twilight is now “split into cliques” between main stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner and supporting characters like Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene.

The reason, really?

Money.

Lutz reportedly asked for $8 million for the next two Breaking Dawn films, and only received $1.25 million per picture. 

But according to In Touch, Lutz is “still holding a grudge” that the other castmembers didn’t back him up, and now there’s tension within the franchise.

Not true, says a Lutz pal, who adds he’s still very much part of the team.

The Lutz insider says that while he was in Berlin last week to do promotion for his Calvin Klein deal, “He happily [also] did a press day for Eclipse.”

Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz won’t be breaking up with Breaking Dawn.

Gossip Cop has confirmed that Greene and Lutz have signed contracts to return as Alice and Emmett Cullen for the final installment of the “Twilight” series.

The actors had been at an impasse with studio Summit Entertainment and reportedly threatened to leave their roles if their pay wasn’t increased.

While stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner receive far bigger paydays for their work, Greene and Lutz negotiated for raises in a franchise that has generated a fortune.

Neither was permitted to renegotiate terms for the second (New Moon) or third (Eclipse) films after the original became a blockbuster.

Reports are swirling today that Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz might leave the “Twilight” franchise before Breaking Dawn begins production if contract negotiations crumble.

While it’s expected that the Big Three of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner are close to finalizing deals to complete the run, Greene and Lutz are rumored to be looking for more than producers are willing to spend.

Bryce Dallas Howard is taking over for Rachelle Levefre in the upcoming Eclipse, so there is a precedent for secondary role replacements.

Gossip Cop wanted to know how much YOU think potential losses of Greene and Lutz would mean to the series’ final installment.

“Can You Believe John Krasinski Beat Out Kellan Lutz For The Role Of Captain America?” asks HollywoodLife.

The site further steps in it when it goes on to question, “What the heck, Hollywood? How could you pick John Krasinski over Kellan Lutz?!”

But HollywoodLife wasn’t the only accuracy-challenged site to wrongly cast Krasinski as the American flag-wearing Captain.

Hollyscoop blares in its headline, “John Krasinski to Play Captain America,” followed by the opening line of “John Krasinski is about to become a huge movie star!”

Added to this list of bad blogs, of course, is Perez Hilton, which reports, “John Krasinski is rumored to be Marvel’s top choice for the lead role in The First Avenger: Captain America to be released in the summer of 2011!”

All these inaccurate stories were based on an “exclusive” from Fox411, which stated, “‘Captain America’ role is John Krasinski’s to lose, source says.”

So, what do all these sites have is common?

(1) They’re all WRONG.

(2) None of them bothered to fact-check the story.

Actually, it’s took Gossip Cop longer to write this post than it did to verify whether or not it was true that Krasinski was tapped for “Captain America.”

According to Krasinski’s rep, stories of “The Office” star playing the superhero are “not true at all.”

“EXCLUSIVE! Kellan Lutz Couldn’t Get Into Last Night’s Maxim Super Bowl Party!” barks a headline on HollywoodLife, which goes on to ask, “Can you imagine turning Kellan away at the door?”

According to the same site that recently declared “New Couple Alert” about Ron Livingston and his wife Rosemarie DeWitt, comes a report that “Kellan Lutz was apparently denied access into last night’s Maxim-sponsored Super Bowl party in Miami.”

HollywoodLife claims that after Lutz walked down the red carpet and posed for photos along with Jessica Szohr, “Kellan was turned away at the door and he furiously stormed off.”

Now getting back to HollywoodLife’s question, “Can you imagine turning Kellan away at the door?”

NO.

It DIDN’T happen.

Gossip Cop is told the story is “100 percent not true,” and that Lutz was in the Maxim magazine party with his agent.

Gossip Cop didn’t forget about Kristen Stewart. Many of you asked whether she would be attending tonight’s People’s Choice Awards, the first big Hollywood event of the year.

While a rep for Stewart did not get back to us, sources at Summit Entertainment say only “New Moon” stars Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz are slated to attend, and a rep for the awards show told Gossip Cop that Stewart was not on the list of attendees.

Stewart was nominated in the “Favorite Movie Actress” category.

“New Moon” is up for “Favorite Movie” and “Favorite On-Screen Team.”

As reported yesterday, Robert Pattinson will NOT be at the People’s Choice Awards since he has prior work commitments.

And while Lautner’s ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift will be at the presentation, don’t expect any drama.

Still, there’s plenty of reason to watch the show, being hosted by Queen Latifah, especially if you’re a fan of Sandra Bullock, Steve Carell, Carrie Underwood, Ashton Kutcher, Mariah Carey, Ryan Reynolds, Jessica Alba, LL Cool J, George Lopez, Keith Urban, Sacha Baron Cohen or Hugh Jackman, among others. 

The People’s Choice Awards are being broadcast live on CBS from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.

The People’s Choice Awards just got more interesting.

Taylor Swift is expected to run into her most recent ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner, now that singing star has just been added as one of the celebrities expected at tomorrow’s awards show, which hands out trophies to film, television and music stars, all based on fan voting.

More than 60 million fans voted for the 30 different categories including, Favorite Movie Actor, Favorite TV Comedy, Favorite Female Artist, Favorite On-Screen Team, and even Favorite Animal Show.

Among the top nominated movies and TV shows, respectively, are the vampire-based “New Moon” and “True Blood.”

In addition to the two Taylors, also expected at the Queen Latifah-hosted show, being aired on CBS from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, are Sandra Bullock, Steve Carell, Carrie Underwood, Ashton Kutcher, Mariah Carey, Ryan Reynolds, Jessica Alba, LL Cool J, George Lopez, Kellan Lutz, Keith Urban, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Hugh Jackman.

Don’t jump to any conclusions. Kellan Lutz hasn’t decided to greet the new decade as a cross-dresser (we think).

But the “Twilight” star did “don a black wig and hide under a hoodie” in Miami recently, the New York Post reports. The paper claims the hunky actor “tried to go incognito” while at the Delano Hotel’s Florida Room. Lutz’s bid for anonymity may not have worked, though, with the Post‘s so-called “spy” saying the star “was getting lots of admiring glances from women, but he only seemed interested in hanging with his friends.”

Gossip Cop just made a New Year’s resolution: To become so startlingly handsome we can’t disguise it.

Almost no one’s been tagged with as many outright wrong rumors as Lindsay Lohan, who Tweets directly with her fans (and speaks directly with Gossip Cop) to try to keep the nonsense at bay. We’ve collected fifteen of the worst examples to show how much fictional dish has been thrown in Lohan’s direction over just the last few months.

15. Lindsay Loves Leo

… And so did 20 other guests at his party. No late night scandal here.

14. Lindsay “Owes” Hotel Thousands

She didn’t owe a dime, which is about how much some of these tabs should charge.

13. Lindsay “Hooking Up” with Model Petey Wright

We’re looking forward to the day when blogs “hook up” with fact checkers. No romance there.

12. Lindsay Fashionable for Free

Call it “The Devil Knows Nada.” Ungaro did pay her for design work, contrary to reports.

11. Lindsay to Play Herself on Big Screen

She’s not. The way these rumors usually go, we half-expected Robert Pattinson to be cast in the role of “Lindsay.”

10. Lindsay Moroccan “Rock’n'” Lip Lock

True: she and Gerard Butler were in the same country. Not true: everything else.

9. Lindsay and Petey’s African Adventure

A Tweeter and X17 combined to place omnipresent Petey Wright and Lohan together in Morocco. They were only off by two continents and one ocean.

8. Lindsay to Appear on “Big Brother”

Perez Hilton with a big “oops.” No reality here.

7. Lindsay “Camps Out” on Location in Texas… From New York?

The reason her profile was reportedly low in Texas? She was still in New York.

6. Lindsay Hurls Tray in New York Hotel, Gets Booted

… But when this “happened,” she was in Texas. That’s an awfully impressive toss.

5. Lindsay Reality Show on the Way

Someone could really put together a strong programming lineup of all the reality shows starring Lohan.

4. Lindsay “Burglarizes” Her Own Home

Her “eerie” resemblance to the perpetrator on surveillance tape? They both wear hoods!! (Oooh!!)

3. Lindsay Sex Tape Stolen

We’re still waiting at Blockbuster.

2. Lindsay Engaged!

Funny, how “engaged” has the letters G-A-G.

1. Lindsay Invents Time Travel and Uses Power to Ban Men from Club

She reportedly had every guy bounced from a club in Sardinia, even though she was in New York. Here, Star magazine couldn’t get a Lindsay story “right” if we spotted them “R,” “I,” “G,” and “H.”

Last week we counted down Gossip Cop‘s 20 Top “Twilight” Rumors, many of which involved a young man named Robert Pattinson. We had a great time recalling Pattinson’s alleged “steroids use” (ha!), his near stint in “rehab” (HA!), and his potential role of a lifetime – as Bristol Palin baby daddy Levi Johnston (gasping…for…air…).

But that wasn’t enough. So as Pattinson winds down press for “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” and as Thanksgiving approaches, Gossip Cop presents ten MORE turkeys – wrong Robert Pattinson rumors the gossip biz desperately wanted you to buy. Enjoy.

10. The “Remember Me” Ending Changed

Here’s a spoiler alert: No, it didn’t. But it had been fifteen minutes since the last alarmist rumor and sites were getting antsy.

9. Trying to Win Back Camilla Belle with Flowers

More a case of “unfounded speculation” than unrequited love.

8. Throwing Darts at Himself in Misery

When Star shows up, it definitely feels like target practice around here.

7. Kirsten Dunst’s “Barrage of Flirty Texts”

This one didn’t even bother flirting with the facts.

6. Teaming Up with Nicole Kidman

Everyone insisted she was playing opposite in “Bel Ami.” Everyone was wrong.

5. Casting Curiosities on Earth and in Space

While studios would love him to be in every single movie ever… it’s probably not happening.

4. “Threatened” by Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz

If there’s one thing we know about Robert Pattinson, it’s that he… craves the spotlight? (Um…)

3. DVD Exploits Actor and His Fans in One Fell Swoop

What could be sketchier than lifting material from fans to sell unauthorized footage?…

2. $500 Million TV Deal for Edward Cullen

Oh, yeah. Wrongly promising that Pattinson’s bringing “Twilight” to television.

1. Engagement to Mystery Woman!

Gossip Cop checks the mailbox every day for a wedding invitation. Our letter carrier is concerned.

Gossip Cop had eyes and ears at tapings of “Ellen” today, where Kellan Lutz and Robert Pattinson charmed the audience in back-to-back appearances. Here’s what we found out:

Lutz taped his episode first, and it airs tomorrow (Wednesday). DeGeneres offered him $5,000 to charity for him to remove his shirt. We won’t spoil whether he agreed to the offer – you’ll have to watch tomorrow.

Pattinson’s parents and sisters were in the audience for his taping, which airs on Friday. He told DeGeneres he was proud of his body for the first time in his life when he watched “New Moon.”

Apparently he isn’t the only one feeling comfortable these days.

Pattinson revealed to DeGeneres that a woman in a crowd had asked him how she could get his attention, and he jokingly suggested she could get naked.

And she did.

Forget Edward Cullen. It’s Robert Pattinson whose powers are superhuman.

In a piece titled, “LiLo Wants Kellan Lutz To Pay Her Tab?!”  Perez Hilton writes, “we’re hearing” – meaning, “we’re cutting and pasting from another unreliable outlet” – that Lindsay Lohan was recently at Crown Bar in L.A. and was  “having a perfectly wonderful time, drinking and hanging with friends, until the bar bill came.”

He then says, “The waitress came over looking for Lindsay to pay for the bottle of Champagne she ordered and Lindsay told the woman to charge Kellan for it!”

Really?

“Cop Blocker” Hilton goes on to claim, “She left the bar never having paid the bill.”

Really?

Not really.

In fact, Lohan called the entire story “absurd,” and told Gossip Cop, “I don’t like champagne and I barely know the kid.”

Might Robert Pattinson host “Saturday Night Live” after all? Well, there are no plans as of now, but fans should be careful not to buy some interpretations of a recent interview… or to assume the late night institution has closed its doors to him.

Last week we busted the rumor Pattinson had turned down a chance to cohost with Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz. In fact, he’d been offered a chance to host on his own, but couldn’t because of scheduling issues.

Yesterday MTV posted a video clip where Pattinson was asked about potentially hosting SNL. In it, Pattinson talks about being “terrified of doing stuff like that” but excitedly adds, “I’d love to write an episode… that’d be fun,” although he suspected it was against protocol.

Now many outlets are interpreting Pattinson’s response to mean he’d be too anxious to appear unless he could create his own material.

First of all, that’s not really what he’s saying in the interview. More importantly, pitching his own ideas would NOT be a deal breaker. A spokesperson for SNL told Gossip Cop, “If he wants to come in with his own ideas, we would welcome it,” and went on to remind Gossip Cop that several other hosts in the past have helped come up with sketch ideas. Just last week, Taylor Swift broke with convention by writing her own monologue.

So while Pattinson is busy these days (have you noticed?) and SNL doesn’t have him slated, it could happen at some point. Gossip Cop will keep our ears to the ground.

It looks like “The Bonnie Hunt Show” will be having a week chock full of “Twilight” stars:

Michael Sheen will appear on November 30, Kellan Lutz on December 2, Nikki Reed on December 3, and Ashley Greene on December 4.

A source told Gossip Cop that Peter Facinelli is ALSO being booked for Bonnie’s show, although a date is not yet known.

Earlier, Gossip Cop confirmed with insiders at “Rachael Ray” that Nikki Reed will be appearing on November 20 (taping on the 18th), while Peter Facinelli will tape an appearance on November 17 – air date to be determined.

We’ve also learned Kellan Lutz will be on “Ellen” on November 18. It tapes the day before.

Robert Pattinson in Japan (GettyImages.com)

Fox411 gets a zero for this one.

According to the blog, “Despite his staggering success as the certified break out star of the ‘Twilight’ film franchise, actor Robert Pattinson is still threatened by his co-stars.”

Really?!

The site claims, “sources tell Fox411 exclusively that Pattinson is not a fan of sharing the spotlight and that he even refused to host ‘Saturday Night Live’ along with his ‘New Moon’ costars Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz.”

Either Fox411 made up this info or they have a really bad source, because they have someone say, “Rob is threatened by Kellan and Taylor,” and “When SNL approached him to host he was excited – until he found out he would be hosting with Kellan and Taylor… He doesn’t want to share the stage with them on ‘SNL’ because he doesn’t think they are serious actors like him and doesn’t believe they are on the same level.”



Well, not feeling others are on the same level unfortunately is how we feel right now dealing with this Fox411 item.

But we’ll stoop.

First, this entire story is nonsense. That said, back in September Gossip Cop – who has real sources – found out that Pattinson was offered an SNL hosting gig (by himself), but there were scheduling conflicts.

Today, Gossip Cop spoke to an understandably bewildered rep at SNL, who assured us that the proposed triple booking scenario is absolutely 100 percent “not true.”
