HOLLYWOOD DIRT OVERFLOW (10-09-09)

THE HARVARD LAMPOON IS RELEASING A "TWILIGHT" PARODY NOVEL:

It's hard to believe this could actually be funny . . . but if you're a "Twilight" fan, it might be worth checking out . . .

The Harvard Lampoon is releasing a "Twilight" parody novel, called "Nightlight". It'll be in stores November 3rd.

It's about a pale, klutzy girl named BELLE GOOSE, who moves to "Switchblade, Oregon" and meets a guy named EDWART MULLEN, whom she believes is a vampire. (--Yeah, it sounds roughly like "Scary Movie 4"-level humor. Pretty much the only way you're going to find this funny or interesting is if you're into either that kind of humor, or "Twilight" itself.)

For those of you who don't live and breathe "Twilight", the main characters are Bella Swan and Edward Cullen . . . and it's set in Forks, Washington. It's been 40 years since the Harvard Lampoon . . . which is Harvard University's undergraduate humor magazine . . . has published a novel. The last one was 1969's "Lord of the Rings" parody, "Bored of the Rings". (--Here's the oh-so-clever book cover for "Nightlight" . . .)

MILEY CYRUS DUMPED HER TWITTER ACCOUNT . . . BECAUSE HER BOYFRIEND WANTED HER TO!!!

MILEY CYRUS' new boyfriend, LIAM HEMSWORTH, is way too controlling . . . to the point where it might actually be DANGEROUS. You're not going to believe what he did. --He made Miley . . . GIVE UP HER TWITTER ACCOUNT!!!

That's right . . . Miley has bailed on Twitter, leaving more than TWO MILLION FOLLOWERS with no hope and no direction!!! --We don't know exactly what Liam has against Twitter. All we have is Miley's very last tweet, which read, quote, "FYI Liam doesn't have a Twitter and he wants ME to delete mine with good reason."

Not surprisingly, #mileycomeback is Twitter's top trending topic. --If you see a supposedly "legit" Miley Cyrus Twitter account, don't fall for it. Several fakes have popped up since Miley quit. --Miley and Liam met on the set of the movie, "The Last Song" . . . which will be in theaters next April.

If it somehow matters to you, Miley's mom Tish also deleted her account. But her sister Brandi and her brother Trace are still tweeting.


DR. CONRAD MURRAY COULD BE ARRESTED . . . OVER BACK CHILD SUPPORT:

DR. CONRAD MURRAY is in hot water with the law. But not for anything he may have done to MICHAEL JACKSON. It's for BACK CHILD SUPPORT. Murray is allegedly behind $13,000 in payments to one Nenita Malibiran . . . the mother of his 10-year-old son.

There was a hearing in Las Vegas to work things out . . . but Murray was a no-show. The District Attorney recommended a bench warrant for Dr. Murray's arrest . . . but it hasn't been issued yet. --And that won't happen for another week or so. Murray has a 10-day period in which to get in contact with the court. If he doesn't, THEN they can issue the warrant.

The D.A.'s office also plans to ask that Murray's medical license be suspended . . . which they can apparently do because of his history of lagging on his child support payments. (--It's probably only a matter of time before this happens, one way or another.)
