Last week, the Chop Shop crew went out to the New Moon Talent Tour kick off party at the Hollywood & Highland complex here in Los Angeles. It was a great evening that featured performances from New Moon Soundtrack artists Death Cab for Cutie, Band Of Skulls, Sea Wolf, and Anya Marina. The cast from New Moon also made an appearance and answered fan questions about the upcoming film. The decibel level peaked when Robert Pattinson (Edward Cullen) made his “surprise” grand entrance. I may have let out a little yell also, but don’t tell anyone.
Here is a fantastic fan video of Anya’s performance of “Satellite Heart” from the show:
In more Anya news, her cover of T.I.’s “Whatever You Like” was featured on this weeks controversial episode of Gossip Girl. The song plays over a scene where Dan, Vanessa, and Olivia (played by Hillary Duff) all engage in some communal kissing and what appears to be the beginning of an interesting night together. The episode was the most watched of the season and “Whatever You Like” is #22 on the iTunes single chart today. Safe to say, it is a win-win(-win?) for everyone.
