::Team Twilight::: Stephenie Meyer to present Oscar for Best Adpated Screenplay tomorrow.

London, March 4 (IANS) ‘Harry Potter’ author J.K. Rowling has turned down the opportunity to present an Oscar because she is too busy writing her next book.  The ‘Twilight’ scribe Stephenie Meyer and Rowling were approached together by academy bosses to announce the winner of best adapted screenplay award. Meyer accepted the offer, while Rowling turned down the invite, reports contactmusic.com.
‘You won’t be hearing from me often I am afraid, as pen and paper is my priority at the moment,’ Rowling wrote on her website.
The movies nominated for the screenplay award are:
‘In the Loop’ (Jesse Armstrong, Simon Blackwell, Armando Iannucci and Tony Roche)
‘District 9′ (Neill Blomkamp and Terri Tatchell),
‘Precious’ (Geoffrey Fletcher)
‘An Education’ (Nick Hornby)
‘Up In The Air’ (Jason Reitman and Sheldon Turner).
