Much like Miley Cyrus' cameo in the sequel to "Sex and the City: The Movie" was once one a big mystery, we've now unearthed details about another thespian's (this time it's an Academy Award winner!) guest stint.

In October, People reported that Penelope Cruz would be appearing in the film (which is slated to be released in 2010) as a banker, and while we can't exactly confirm if her financial abilities are going to be highlighted, we can shed more light on the logistics behind her part. "I'm in it for very, very little time," she told MTV News during a press event for her next film "Nine." "It's a collaboration that I did because I am a huge fan of the show and the movie and Sarah Jessica Parker."

If you're like a very large majority of Twilighters out there, there's a good chance you've already seen "New Moon" and have purchased a ticket to go see it again this weekend. Well, if you fall into that category, than director Chris Weitz really hopes you keep your mouth zipped "The final scene is extraordinarily emotional, and it leads to a very potent climax," he told MTV News on the red carpet of the NYC screening of "New Moon." "And it's kind of a spoiler, which I hope people won't give away."

That ending — a special moment between two characters that rhyme with Nella and Nedward — and the way it appears in the movie was plotted very carefully by the filmmaker and his team. "Everything about it was planned to reach that ultimate moment," Chris noted. Looking back at the overall film, he admits he's very optimistic about how it will be perceived among the world. "I feel it was as close to the final product as I could make it, which was an honest version of the book and something that a fan would appreciate," he said. "So it's not made for any particular demographic, except for the reader of the book who really wants to see it visualized."

Do you agree with Chris' vision? And will you be keeping the ending a secret over the next few days?

Last night, the stars of the month (or should it be year by now?), the cast of "New Moon," took their place in the New York City spotlight by attending the Cinema Society and D&G screening of the movie at the Landmark Sunshine Theater. It was originally supposed to be a "secret" event (is there really such a thing with the "Twilight" franchise anymore?), but plenty of faces from Manhattan's "elite" circles (um, hi, Ivanka Trump) were still there to support the Saga.

Just looking at the photos above (and the ones from the rest of the evening), it seems as though Kristen Stewart was somehow left off the memo that instructed attendees to "please only wear black or shades of cream tonight." Though she did show up to the carpet in a black Burberry trench coat, she eventually took it off to reveal an olive green Valentino dress. We adore the silhouette and the girly frills, but we're not super keen on the color for the actress, who looks a little washed out in it (her eyes, however, look stunning). As for Kristen's boys, both Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner chose sleek black Dolce & Gabbana suits, with Rob's, of course, sans tie and unbuttoned at the top.

Every day a multitude of stars wander through the halls of MTV News to talk about their latest projects and goof around with staff members. But sometimes we catch stars elsewhere, and that's why we put together Spotted!, a daily compendium of stars in the wild.

We have quite a while till "True Blood" returns with more deliciousness, but that doesn't mean we've forgotten about our favorite cunning (yet sexy!) vampire, Eric (a.k.a. Alexander Skarsgard). Last night, the actor attended GQ's 14th Annual Men of the Year Party (Chris Pine, Bradley Cooper and Obama were among the men honored on the cover of the mag's newest issue) at the Chateau Marmont in L.A. We appreciate his layered, casual look and how smooth and clean-shaven his face was, but that's not why he was worthy of a post — check out who is in the picture on the right with him!

Yes, that's Kate Bosworth standing right in front of Alex. Yes, they are standing awfully close. And no, we have no idea what he's staring at either. What we do know is that back in October, when Alex picked up a trophy at the Scream Awards for Best Villain, he may have picked up something else as well — a new girlfriend. We, too, noticed then that he and Kate, who presented him with the award, were being a tad flirty. Now, it seems (much to our dismay) that the Swede could very well be dating the California girl! What do you guys think?

Check out who else MTV Spotted!, including Taylor Swift in London, Ashley Greene at the MoMA, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen at a Tim Burton event and more!

December is going to be here before you can utter the words, "jingle bells," but last night, the temperature on the red carpet at Us Weekly's Hot Hollywood party was exactly that — HOT! The event, which celebrated the magazine's annual issue in which the best of the best in Tinseltown are honored for being on the pulse of pop culture this year, was held at the Voyeur club in L.A. (Does anyone else find it oddly fitting that the name of the club also stands for a term that describes "a fascinated observer of scandalous events"?) An abundance of well-known faces turned up for the big night, including some that were, uh, a little random, like Levi Johnston.

Not so random, however, were the cameos by Kristin Cavallari and her MTV cohort, Whitney Port. Kristin, who was nominated as "Comeback of the Year" for her return to reality TV with "The Hills," wore a Dolce & Gabbana black corset, a Philip Lam skirt with a black/gold design on it and shoes that we find to be a tad questionable as we don't like the way they cut off her leg. Whitney's vintage sheath however, was adorable and perfect for the upcoming holiday season — sparkles, gold Guiseppe Zanotti heels and just the right amount of skin.

While the big three "New Moon" stars were heading Madrid for a photo call, the big three pop stars — Kevin, Joe and Nick Jonas — were nearby doing their best Cristiano Ronaldo (he's a famous Portuguese soccer player, for those of you not so keen on keeping up with European football at home) impressions at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. After showing off their fancy footwork, the Jonas Brothers performed at the Bilbao Exhibition Centre.

Check out who else MTV Spotted!, including Lindsay Lohan at a Kitson party, Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth leaving a club and Maria Carey in London.

First there was Quinn and Finn. Then it was Finn and Rachel. And Rachel and Puck. Then Puck and Quinn, and once again Quinn and Finn (it always comes full circle, doesn't it?). But those hookups aren't the only ones the cast of "Glee" want to see steaming up the hallways of McKinley High school.

In fact when Rachel and Finn themselves (Lea Michele and Cory Monteith) stopped by MTV News last week to gossip about the show and its powerhouse soundtrack, we got them to spill on a classmate they're hoping finds a love match.

"I would really like to see Kurt have a relationship," Lea said. "I don't think Puck is the right guy for him for sure — sorry Mark [Salling]!"

As if the looming excitement about "New Moon" wasn't enough to keep you guys going every single day, now we have even bigger news: MTV is bringing you not one but TWO TV specials about your favorite vampire, his leading lady and all of their friends.

So, set your DVRs, Tivos and cell phone calendar reminders now! On Monday, November 16 — the same night the "New Moon" cast is hitting up L.A. for the U.S. premiere of the flick — MTV will premiere “Love Bites” at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT. The exclusive, half-hour special will take a closer look into the subject none of you can hear enough about: the hot-and-heavy chemisty between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. 

If that isn't enough to get your pulse racing, keep your DVR recording after "Love Bites" for the debut of “New Moon Revealed” at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT. In this 30-minute special, expect even more awesome access to the “Twilight” saga. The show, which will be be hosted by Kim Stolz and anchored from “New Moon” mall events in L.A. and Chicago, will countdown the five hottest, most burning questions fans of the “Twilight” series want answered.

Ashley Tisdale had been tweeting up a storm later about her adventure to New York City (on Monday, she wrote, "Just landed woo hoo!!! Now your in New York, these streets will make u feel brand new, the lights will inspire you.....") and now we know why: she got to celebrate Halloween ... in November. The actress, singer and full-time fashionista was Spotted! wearing a black and gold frock as she co-hosted M magazine's 2009 Hollywood Halloween event at Marquee. We're not quite sure why the teen mag waited a whole two weeks after the festive holiday to throw a big bash, but, then again, you should never need an excuse to put on a costume.

Check out who else MTV Spotted!, including David Archuleta dining with a lady and Leona Lewis at London's Radio One.

After yesterday's debatable Proenza Schouler ensemble at the "New Moon" photocall in London (some of you called it "awful" while others thought it was "mod, funky and fun"), Kristen Stewart has reverted back to her old ways today in Madrid with a Elizabeth and James black mini dress. We can't blame her for wanting to break out the leather for the Spanish excursion, and we're absolutely adoring her wine red staggeringly high Christian Louboutin heels, but we kind of wish someone would've could've cut off the sheer part from the top. That dress would've looked much better on her in strapless form.

As for K Stew's boys, we appreciate how coordinated they all were. Ignoring Robert Pattinson's facial scruff, we think his dark-washed jeans combined with white button down and Marc Jacobs bomber jacket looked very posh, and very Edward Cullen. Taylor Lautner opted for a classic all-black style with a hint of grey. Heck even director Chris Weitz sported a sleek outfit — one that that suited him much better than the orange pants he chose for Paris.
