UPDATE: An awesome EclipseMovie.org reader Lucia, has figured out who Billy was referring to! His name is Peter Murphy from the band Bauhaus. Ironically their first single was called Bella Lugosi’s Dead, and Lead singer Peter Murphy was known for performing upside down in a bat costume!
Here is confirmation that this is indeed the person making the cameo. And is taken directly from his site PeterMurphy.info

Ok already saw this, but I love Billy!

Like someone already wrote on the comments section on the NewMoon page, the singer from Bauhaus is called Peter Murphy (one of my all time favourites). Billy Burke gave ALL the info and the lady doing the interview didn't even understand, lol

ravensrayne

LOL….Ok I am a child from the 80's and I dont even know who this Peter Murphy is nor the band Bauhaus is so no worries children…..LOL
Team_Bookworm

Bauhaus was like a goth band from the 80s They are pretty awesome. I love um! I listened to them all the time in my 'goth' phase when I was younger. Im pretty excited about him makin a cameo though, that is pretty awesome!
TeamVampiresWearS*xDrivenPants

I wonder WHY he would be doing a cameo as a vampire…. *thinks*
TwiAddict513

I hope its not a slow news day!
but this is cool.
edwardcullen_luvr

I am not sure who this man is! But what vamp do you think he will be? It says from a flashback scene. Hmm….
edwardcullen_luvr

Yes, I cannot wait for breakingdawnmovie.org! And let's just say for whatever reason they do not make BD (I know, it is horrible to even think like that!!), can you still make a bd.org for us. You know, so we have somewhere to go!!
Irishgirl

He's a pretty well known unknown……meaning he's one of those guys that you instantly know the song when you hear it, but don't know who sings it. LOL! He's kind of punk/goth/alternative. His band, Bauhaus, was in the opening of the movie 'The Hunger' with David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve. 'Bella Lugosi's Dead' is a great song, but 'Cuts You Up' is my favorite. He toured with Nine Inch Nails a few years back….2006 I think. I wonder if he's playing a known character or some random unnamed character in the flashback?
Chel*Team NMS*

The more i look at it the more his name is really familiar but then again Peter Murphy its a pretty standard name here so that could be it LOL!!
i'll have to download those songs to see if i recognise them

Yeah i wonder who he's gonna play if its a cameo *strokes chin in contemplation*
Becki_Cullen

So, is this like… Jasper flashback scene?
Or… is there any other vamp flashback bits?
I don't know.
This should be interesting!
Becki_Cullen

I know!
“Cos that's the rumour going round.”
Is it? O.o
I didn't hear that one.
Chel*Team NMS*

Everyones over on NMM.org except me *tears up*
edwardcullen_luvr

Me too, Chel, me too I cannot wait until all of the new, exciting news is over here, then we can be included!!
nikki13

does anyone know who he is talking about?
hc

holy shit! i love that freakin' song!!!!! way to go David Slade! kickassery!
Chel*Team NMS*

Hey Luvr!!! I thought i was gonna lose my mind earlier all those new posts today and we got NADA!!!! I hate my work computer
edwardcullen_luvr

Yeah, it sucks big time. I want to hurry up and go home so I can comment on all of the new stuff at nmm.org. A lot happened today!!
Chel*Team NMS*

i'm home and trying to catch up but i don't think i'm gonna be able to damn my less than perfect typing skills!!!!
PhoenixMP3 ~ Mrs. Cudmore

I like Billy !!!! He's cool!!!

mmmm starting to sound odd to myself these days mmmmm ………….
vampdazzle

oops I don't know who he is either! and on the other hand I'm trying to think of flash back scene, and maybe it could be when Bella is at the bonfire and they talk about how to these two vamps came and killed lots of natives, one was a guy and the other was a girl, but the guy was killed and the woman came to get revenged and then the whole 'third wife' story comes up! I think that maybe it could be that, or it could be Peter (Jasper's friend), although I really think the other one is most likely!
vampdazzle

Hi, yeah umh? I was commenting above about the story of the 'third wife' that came up at the bonfire, in that story two vamps are mentioned, one guy (who is killed) and the woman that was with him, that later comes and tries to get revenge! hope it helps, 'cause the other one flashback vamp I can think of is Peter, but Billy said in the video that it was a dream/flashback scene and so I think that the former is more likely since Bella also has a dream about the third wife, what do you think? …. gosh this just makes me more desperate for Eclipse and I haven't seen NM yet, I'm going to need psychiatric help very soon! : ) and sorry for the long comment!
Angie

Wow, I feel old. None of you know who Peter Murphy is.

This will be cool to see. I've seen him live a few times. I have several Bauhaus and Peter Murphy solo CDs. Sexy creepy guy.
edwardcullen_luvr

You might be right. All I know is that his picture kinda scares me, so he would probably make a good “bad vamp”.
Angie

Edit to add:

Billy said the name of the band right in the interview and you still didn't know who he was talking about? That means that I am definitely old and irrelevant at 35. **sniff**
Wolfi ♥(TEAM LEAH)♥ ♥ ♥

i forget to check on here!!..yaya cameo..i dont know who peter whatever his name is..
ills

I didn't hear that rumor either.. but that would be odd.. even though he played a good Lestat i can't see him in the Twilight world.
