Twihards Attack! Emma Roberts Abandons Twitter After 'Team Jacob' Allegience

By Sharmaine Jones

We knew that “Twilight” fans were passionate but we weren't aware they were also gangsta! Thanks to a confession on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” from Emma Roberts about her preference for the Wolfpack over Cullen Clan, we now see the moonlight!

On Tuesday (June 15), Roberts was put on the spot by Jay Leno while sitting next to RPattz, when he asked “Team Edward? Team Jacob?”. There's no wrong answer right? Well, apparently there is. Roberts' reply was “Your hair looks wonderful in person but I'd have to say I'm Team Jacob.” Patterson laughed it off jokingly saying “You've just revealed yourself to have absolutely no taste.” Soon after, angry Twihards flooded Roberts' account with messages, prompting her to delete her account!

"Team Jacob? Ewwwwwwwww!!!!! >.<," one post read. Another post read, "lol it was a bit more then her declaring herself Team Jacob. She was pretty bitchy throughout the whole thing but more with Rob." Thankfully, more rational fans are speaking up now that their more rabid brethren have scared Roberts away.

"Dear Emma Roberts, Sorry abt our fandom. Please know not all of us act that way. I didn't agree w/ your Jay antics, but won't cuss you out." Another post additionally read, "Emma Roberts deleted her twitter? I can safely say i'm very embarrassed to even be part of “Twilight” at this point. Rob made a joke about it!"

Way to go guys!

"The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" hits theaters June 30.
