It pays to be a Hollywood vampire -- though in Ashley Greene‘s case, we don’t know just how much yet. Regardless, she and her ‘Twilight Saga’ costar Nikki Reed were big winners at Thursday night’s Hollywood Life Young Hollywood Awards.
Legions of hot young stars turned out to the ceremony -- check out red-carpet arrivals here -- hosted by Mario Lopez at the Wilshire Ebell Theater in Los Angeles and sponsored by JCPenney and Mark cosmetics.
Greene scooped the Young Hollywood Style Icon award, presented by Jessica Stroup, and Reed the Young Hollywood Superstar in the Making trophy, given by her ‘Twilight’ dad Peter Facinelli.
Reed, looking adorable in a nude Chris Benz minidress, thanked her family members in attendance -- minus her mother who’s ‘mad at me because I rear-ended her on Mother’s Day.’
Kevin and Joe Jonas turned up to support their brother Nick, who nabbed artist of the year. Achieving equal screams from fans was actor Liam Hemsworth, earning the YH Breakthrough of the Year award.
Presenting the trophy to Hemsworth was Adam Shankman, ‘The Last Song’ producer who earned plenty of attention earlier this week for a dirty dance session with Hemsworth’s girlfriend, Miley Cyrus.
For those of age, Svedka cocktails were served at the after party, where HollywoodLife.com editor in chief Bonnie Fuller toasted with stars like ‘90210’ actress Jessica Stroup, Facinelli and wife Jennie Garth, and ‘Modern Family’ prodigy Rico Rodriguez.
DJ Cobra provided tracks for Kevin Rudolph, ‘Greek’ cutie Gregory Michael, pop princess Kristine Elezaj and the cast of ‘The Vampire Diaries.’
Naturally goodies were part of the package -- backstage all award winners and presenters scored gifts like Onitsuka Tiger kicks, swimwear from Sundek and tanning product from Fake Bake.
