TWIST Meets with Mathias Anderle!

Hey TWIST Girls!

TWIST recently got the chance to meet Mathias Anderle, singer, songwriter, model, and now actor in Nickelodeon's upcoming film, School Gyrls, featuring a performance by Justin Bieber! This boy is so talented, and not too bad to look at either. We loved chatting with him and he got us super excited about the movie. Keep reading to learn more about the film, his upcoming debut album, and some personal tid-bits he shared only with us! Also take a look at the video of him telling us about his perfect date and most embarrassing moment. And don't forget to check him out in School Gyrls February 21st at 7 pm on Nickelodeon!

Tell us, are you as excited as we are to see the movie? Do you think Mathias is a hottie?

XOXO
Intern Jen

TWIST: Hey, Mathias! Tell us about your new movie, School Gyrls, and your character in the film?
Mathias: So the movie School Gyrls is based around a group of girls who are an up and coming pop group. I play the role of Colin, which is the quarterback jock in the school. He's friends with everybody in the school, so its un-like that stereotypical jerk jock character. He helps the girls form this group, and they get to be really good friends. There were a lot of people in the movie. Justin Bieber was in the movie. He got to do a musical appearance; he was a really cool guy too.

TWIST: How was it working with all the girls- Mandy, Monica, and Jacque?
Mathias: It was a lot of fun because from the beginning, even before we filmed, we were all really good friends. We did some things together. We went bowling with Justin and everybody, so that was a lot of fun. We all aren't very good at bowling, but that's what made it fun. It was because we just got to be ourselves and got to learn a little bit more about each other.

TWIST: You just dropped your first single and are now recording your debut album. Who has been your biggest musical influence for this album?
Mathias: My album was based around a lot of different people. I've listened to everything since I've been growing up. I listened to reggae, jazz, pop, R&B. I'm really big into Jesse McCartney right now and his kind of style. He mixes everything from that jazz feel to reggae to the R&B, so I'm definitely looking to base some stuff around him and hope to work with him someday.

TWIST: That sounds great. Tell us, if a girl is trying to figure out if a guy likes her, what signs or signals should she look for from him?
Mathias: I think, for me especially, its kind of one of those things where you're just being natural and just joking around. I think guys can really respond to somebody who can make them laugh. Guys like to be goofy, if girls are goofy too that means it lightens the atmosphere a bit. Just try to be yourself and don't be somebody you're not, for sure. Guys respond to that really well. I know I do. (Laughs)!

Shakira is back on the charts with hits from her latest album She Wolf (in stores now!). PopEater.com sat down with the performer to talk about her album and her huge success during the last few years.

Shakira spilled that she's planning a tour, and is mostly looking forward to seeing how fans react during her shows! "Of course you want people to enjoy your work. And nothing would make me more happier as an artist than knowing that people are having fun with this album and the music I've created," she spills. "If they can forget about their troubles for ten seconds while they are listening to one of my songs, I would be absolutely fulfilled and satisfied as an artist," Shakira added.

TWIST talks to Valemont star Nikki Blonsky!


Hey TWIST Girls!

TWIST recently had the chance to catch up with, Nikki Blonsky one of the stars of MTV's, Valemont. In case you've missed it, the show is a really fun, interactive experience, full of mystery and vampire fun! We all know you can never have enough vampires! You can click here to check out the episodes you've missed, and click here to apply to become an actual Valemont student! If you haven't had a chance to see the show, the finale is this Friday on MTV. Keep reading as Nikki tells us more about the show, Hairspray 2 and kissing Zac Efron! Be sure to check out her video where she tells us about one of her favorite memories with her BFF!

TWIST: Can you tell us a little bit about Valemont and your character? What exactly is going on?
NB: Well, my character's name is Poppy. Poppy Barker, and she enrolls in Valemont because it's one of the most prestigious universities. She wants to go to one of the best schools. So, she enrolls and she doesn't know that she has enrolled herself at a school for vampires. It's actually cool because it's a college where vampires go to learn how to live amongst the human race and how to suppress their hunger for human blood and all that good stuff.

TWIST: It seems a little more on the dark side compared to the stuff that you normally do like Hairspray and Queen Sized.
NB: Yeah, that's kind of why I wanted to do it. I've read the script and I loved it. And I've read the character description and I just fell in love with, Poppy. You know, I've been fortunate. I've gotten the opportunity to play a lot of fun characters that are out there and bubbly and having a good time and we're singing and dancing, but this script had no singing and dancing. It was about vampires and it was about you know, the dark side. So I kind of wanted to cross over to the dark side and see what it was like for a little while, and it was cool.

TWIST: I don't know if you're able to talk about it, but they just announced their filming Hairspray 2. Do you know anything about that?
NB: I learn as the fans do. Honest to God, I don't get any special treatment. I found out about Hairspray 2 when something was up on my website when a fan wrote in, "Check your IMDB," and I checked it and it said Hairspray 2, Tracy Turnblad. I was just like, oh, guess we're making it. I did speak to the director, Adam Shankman, he's been twittering a lot about it, so yeah. It's happening.

TWIST: Do you think they're going to be able to get the cast back?
NB: I know that I just spoke to Amanda the other day, and I know that me and her, honestly, what you see on camera as Tracy and Penny, we're like that in real life, like Nikki and Amanda we're just crazy. We definitely would love to play Tracy and Penny again. I know that Zac would totally be down for it as well because we can't have anybody but the Link Larkin. He's the only one that makes Tracy's heart beat. So, yeah I think they would be able to get everybody back, everybody that would really be important to the story line that they're writing for the second one.

TWIST: Can you tell us about your most embarrassing moment?
NB: I guess, it's kind of embarrassing but Zac and I were doing a kissing scene in Hairspray and we didn't hear the director yell cut. So, we went on for like four minutes and it was kind of embarrassing to turn around and see all the backup dancers with their arms folded. They kind of looked at us and just said, "Are you done yet?" And I was just like, "I didn't hear anybody say cut, like guys you know, use the megaphone, be a little louder!" That was kind of embarrassing.
