Fans camped out for almost a week outside Los Angeles’s Nokia Theatre in anticipation of the final installment in the ‘Twilight’ franchise and last night‘s premiere of ‘Breaking dawn – Part 2’ was a bittersweet even for stars and fans alike. To celebrate the conclusion of one of this century’s most beloved stories a lavish after party was held last night for 3,500 guests.

The event, set up by party planner Chad Hudson, featured small vignettes from each of Stephanie Meyer’s 5 books. Bella’s orange pick-up truck was set up at the venues entrance, along with waiters passing out celebratory cocktails. Guests could also view the wolf pack’s “New Moon” lunar bodies and several of the motorcycles from Jacob Black’s garage. The Volturi also got their due with a red set where guests could get their pictures taken upon the group’s thrones.

The series’ stars were on hand for the affair including; Peter Facinelli, Kellan Lutz and Nikki Reed and music and dancing went on until the wee hours of the morning.

Twilight costars Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson sat down with Ellen on the Ellen DeGeneres Show to talk about their upcoming, and final, Twilight movie ‘Breaking Dawn Part 2.’

Ellen good naturedly poked fun at Patterson when he revealed that he had yet to see the movie, but when Ellen pointed out that the ending was different from the book, Lautner  promised fans that they would not be disappointed. “I would be really scared if you were really pissed at us right now,” he said, “but I don’t think fans will be upset with it. We don’t change anything. I mean, the books are their babies; we can’t really touch it too much. It’s fun and there is definitely a twist.”

Pattinson also poked fun of Lautner’s dramatic change in physical appearance since the franchise began. “Taylor left the first film a 15-year old little boy with a long wig and he came back like a Chippendale.”

Also up for discussion was Pattinson’s adorable adopted pup Bear. “Yeah, he was in a five day kill shelter and it was his fourth day. A couple of days later just by coincidence I had to go back to L.A. and this is not my usual way of travelling but we had a private plane. So I took him from the worst pound in Monroe, Louisiana, and he was sitting on a little private jet the next day.”

While Pattinson was mum on his rekindled relationship with Twilight costar Kirsten Stewart he did laugh with Ellen about his habit of getting caught with his fly down.

“Don’t you check right before?” Ellen asked. “We have another picture of you walking. I think it was a Halloween shot and the zipper is down….And you had a mask on, but we know it was you because your zipper was down.”

“It’s crazy,” Rob replied. “I noticed it yesterday as well. I said, what is wrong with me? It’s actually become a problem.”
