As if the cast of "Breaking Dawn" weren't big enough already, eight new actors have just been added to the "Twilight" finale. Summit didn't specify which of the twenty-odd characters left to cast each one will play, but we're pretty sure we can figure most of them out on our own.

Take for instance Ty Olsson (pictured). The 36-year-old actor best known for his work in "2012" and "X2" is a dead ringer for the balding, middle-aged attorney James Jenks that Bella deals with several times over the course of "Breaking Dawn." He has a fairly important part in the story, so it makes a lot of sense that an established actor would be cast in the role instead of a newcomer, like some of the new vampires were. Keep reading after the jump to see the other seven actors cast and which of the remaining roles—Isle Esme employees? J. Jenks and associates? Volturi posse?—we think they'll be playing.

Audrina Patridge has joined the likes of "The Situation," becoming the latest contestant booted off of the 11th season of "Dancing with the Stars." The elimination surprised many fans and friends of the reality star including Lo Bosworth, who tweeted, "i dont think @audrinapatridge should have been eliminated. #justsayin." But Audrina (pictured) was a good sport about the whole thing, as she told supporters, "Thank you to everyone for all of your support and votes!!:) I've had an unforgettable experience on dwts and the journey does not end here.."

Elsewhere, former "DWTS" contestant Kelly Osbourne actually had something to celebrate...her 26th birthday! She received plenty of b-day wishes, including one from "The Spin Crowd" star Jonathan Cheban who told Kelly, "Happy Birthday @misskellyo one of my oldest and best freinds..Love you and wish you many more!" The birthday girl got more than Twitter love, as she shared with followers, "a man just came to deliver me flowers he asked me how old i was i told him 26 and he called me a liar he said i only looked 19 AMAZING!!!"

Rupert Grint, the ginger-haired star of the "Harry Potter" franchise, won our hearts as Ron Weasley, but really, he's so much more than just a teen witch. He's managed to sneak in all sorts of projects while still maintaining his blockbuster star status in the "Harry Potter" flicks. So before "Potter" madness really takes over the world, we're naming him this week's Hump Day Hottie.

Press play on the video below to see more of Rupert, and then keep reading for more details about him!

Vital stats: The 22-year-old Brit got his start on the stage and had never appeared on camera before "Harry Potter." He grew up in the magical-sounding land of Hertfordshire and comes from a rather large family: He's got one brother and three sisters. He's the oldest.

Still looking for the perfect Halloween costume? Don't fret! Hollywood Crush is here to help! All week long, we'll give you the deets on how to dress like your favorite pop-culture icons (without breaking the bank), in our Halloween Costume How-To column. So before you resort to cutting eye holes in your favorite sheets, check out our suggestions for awesome Halloween get-ups!

She's only just returned to Mystic Falls, but the Salvatore brothers' once-loved-now-despised nemesis Katherine is causing some major trouble on "The Vampire Diaries." In fact, she's even weaseled in between soul mates Elena and Stefan. Ahhhhhhhh! Despite her flaws, you have to admit the girl's got a stellar style sense, which is why she's a perfect costume option for Halloween 2010. You better take advantage now, because who knows if she'll still be around come 2011, right?

The crucial aspects of a Katherine costume are the small details that set her apart from good girl Elena. First, you need some bouncy curls. We swear by Conair's 1 1/4 in. Instant Heat Curling Iron (available online or in drug stores for $18.99). Wrap small sections of hair around the iron, keeping the barrel vertical to guarantee perfectly loose ringlets. Next, you'll need a pair of vampire fangs, which you can find at pretty much any Halloween store (though we like these from vampfangs.com).

First "The Hills," now "The City." After two seasons, Whitney Port's New York City-set reality show will not be returning to the MTV airwaves. Let's pour out a Cosmo in its memory.

Okay, now that the mourning portion of this post is over, let's look to the future—cause that's what Miss Port's doing. When she stopped by Ryan Seacrest's radio show on Monday, the leggy blond told the less-leggy, frosted-tipped blond that she has plans. "I'm working on some other things," Whitney hinted. "It's okay. One door closes and another opens." Though Whitney was a bit vague about what's waiting behind those doors, we've got a few ideas of our own. Check out our suggestions for Whitney's new gig and vote for your favorite!

We always thought the only thing that you could put in front of Mark Salling to make him even cuter was a guitar. Turns out we were wrong, it's a baby! We were downright smitten when we saw these pics from the set of "Glee" with Mark (in a suit!) playing with the tyke.

Of course, our first thought as Gleeks was, will this mark the return of Puck and Quinn's baby Beth? But upon inspection, it looks as though this wee one is a lad. So, no sign of baby Beth and her adoptive mother Shelby (Idina Menzel)...just yet.

Boo! Did we scare you? No? Okay, well, maybe a fright-night feature will get your knees knocking. In anticipation of Halloween, we asked a slew of celebrities to suggest their favorite scary movies to get you in the mood for the ooky, spooky holiday.

You probably know today's guest blogger, Austin Basis, best as Math on The CW's "Life Unexpected." Which flick keeps Austin up at night? "The Shining"!

Blood pouring from an elevator door and splashing against the floor and walls, as it creeps towards us in slow-motion and drowns the frame red… Simple, yet absolutely terrifying—this is the trailer for my favorite scary movie: "The Shining."

"Here's JOHNNY!" sarcastically exclaimed through an axed-open door frame; "Come play with us, Danny," echoed in unison by a pair of naively ominous twin girls; "REDRUM!" repeatedly chanted to reveal (in a mirror) the word "murder" written on the bathroom door… Are you scared yet? Stanley Kubrick is a genius! It's got ghost kids, E.S.P., cabin fever, blizzards, an AXE!!! And what's a haunted hotel without a murderous history and a Native American burial ground beneath it? Jack Nicholson embodies homicidal mania with exuberance; Shelley Duvall is the personification of fear… Epic visuals and camera movements, along with the imposing score, will haunt you well into the night.

The "Footloose" remake set has been pretty quiet since production started back in July, so we were pretty excited when director Craig Brewer dropped a set photo of the film's two stars right into our laps. Okay, so he posted it on Twitter, but the photo is of Kenny Wormald and Julianne Hough at the film's famous prom scene, so it's still pretty awesome.

Whoever Harry is, he must feel pretty lucky, and we feel lucky too finally seeing Kenny in costume. We didn't know too much about him when he was cast, and that gelled up hair didn't really have us convinced he'd look like a great Ren, but he looks smoking hot in this picture! Julianne looks gorgeous as always as well... but that brings us to our next point of contention. Is this flick set in the '80s or in the present day?

After all the depressing news this month of separations, divorces and called-off engagements, it's almost a relief to hear about a nice, amiable breakup—particularly one that makes the celebrity dating pool exponentially hotter. The dish: Blake Lively and Penn Badgley, a.k.a. one of Hollywood's most exceptionally attractive couples, have gone their separate ways after two years of dating. The "Gossip Girl" co-stars split early in September, but kept the breakup secret until this week, when a rep confirmed the news to US Weekly.

As splits go, this one looks like a pretty clean break—no major heartbreak, no sordid drama and no knockdown, drag-out fights involving baseball bats and heirloom dishware. (According to reports, the pair have conducted themselves so professionally on set that nobody even noticed that things had cooled off.) And since Blake and Penn have known each other since they were kids, we'll probably still be seeing them out and about on a strictly-platonic basis.

What's "Welcome to the Rileys" star Kristen Stewart's not-so-hidden talent? The girl can cook...and bake! Earlier this year when Kristen and her "Eclipse" costars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were interviewed by Entertainment Weekly, Kristen supplied the refreshments—a loquat pie. And even though she didn't bring any treats for us when we sat down with her a few weeks ago, we still wanted to hear all about her latest culinary pursuits.

While on set for "On the Road," Kristen was the de facto cast chef, and if we had to guess, we'd bet her dishes easily rivaled anything craft services could cook up. "I didn't bake," she said. "I cooked a lot though. I was the only girl on set."
