Entertainment Weekly has named its “10 Breakout Stars of 2008” and the list includes an actor who wants to suck your blood, a singer looking for a boy from America, a tween star known to hang out with three brothers – and even a dog who lives the good life in the 90210. Robert Pattinson: Topping the magazine’s list is the “Twilight” star. The 22-year-old actor is set to play Edward Cullen in the big screen adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s insanely popular book series. Robert’s fans have been known to wait for hours to catch a glimpse of him, shriek and squeal at almost inhuman volume levels when they finally do see the British actor and even cause riots in malls if he’s nearby. Demi Lovato: Demi burst on to the tween scene in the Disney Channel’s “Camp Rock” television movie, starring alongside the Jonas Brothers. The young star, who also dropped her album, “Don’t Forget” in 2008, will be seen in the upcoming movie, “Princess Protection Program.” Russell Brand: The British funny man had audiences in hysterics in this summer’s “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” along with hosting MTV’s VMAs. He will revive his “Sarah Marshall” role in the upcoming “Get Him to the Greek.” Estelle: Estelle’s debut album, “Shine,” paired her with some of music’s greats including, Mark Ronson, will.i.am. and Kanye West on her hit single, '‘American Boy.’’ She toured with Gym Class Heroes and the Roots in 2008. |
