If you get stuck in some heinous traffic this morning in Hollywood, blame Twilight.

Thanks to a 10:30 a.m. handprint ceremony at the Chinese Theatre for the bloodsucking sensation film franchise's Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, streets in the area will be closed down to make room for the stars...and their hordes of screaming fans.

Here are the street closures from Navigate Hollywood:
