Just in time for Halloween and the New Moon premiere, is the latest Bing commercial from Microsoft. Set to air for the first time tonight, the popular new search engine — which Rachel Zoe can't get enough of — is used in this dramatic clip, which stars two characters that closely resemble Edward and Bella. Although it's too bad her Bing search wasn't for something a little bit more Twilight-esque!

Pop culture is all ablaze with vampire mania. Baby may not be able to read the Twilight novels and he certainly shouldn't be watching True Blood at such a young age but it doesn't mean the wee one can't get in on the act.

I consider myself a big fan of True Blood and Twilight, but I'm beginning to think the whole vampire craze has gone too far. I recently came across a blood energy drink and I've been creeped out ever since.
