Robsessed Mentioned On STV.tv



From STV.tv

The popular Twilight star Robert Pattinson has scores of die-hard fans who follow his every move. One of the most faithful is Goz, who runs a blog called ROBsessed (robsessedpattinson.com). (Kate: Go Goz, Go Goz)

ROBsessed publishes updates about the activities of the vampire actor which are followed by thousands of fans worldwide.

Meanwhile, a film maker and distributor called Revolver Entertainment decided to produce a DVD documentary about 23-year-old Robert’s life, called ROBSESSED.

To support their new DVD – which was exclusively launched through ASDA this week – it built a website, called robsessed.co.uk.

However, Robert Pattinson fans were not happy.

The showbiz website Gossip Cop said: “Many supporters of ROBsessedPattinson.com brought to our attention the site’s claim that Revolver Entertainment, the company behind the DVD, had lifted material from their site to market the unauthorized DVD.”

Gossip Cop called Revolver for comment and while the American arm of the business said the content of the site was “original”, when they called the London office, the disputed content suddenly disappeared.

Gossip Cop added: “We’re very encouraged to see fans stand up to shameless profiteering, especially when the offending party has wronged not only the celebrity, but also the fans who put time and effort into content without intending to make a dollar from it."

A statement from Revolver Entertainment on the ROBSESSED site reads: “We would like to make an official apology to all those who took offence to the publication of the syndicated feeds previously published on this site.

“Our intention was never to cause offence but simply to provide a single point of call which presents all available Robert Pattinson news in one convenient place for the use of the fans.

“We firmly believe that this is a film which Pattinson fans will enjoy and feel saddened that it would be judged before having been seen. However, we are confident that once the fans have the chance to see the film that they will embrace it.”

PLEASE NOTE: We received the apology above from Revolver when the "unfortunate incident" happened. We accepted it and have no hard feelings towards them.

Thanks to Gossip Cop and STV.tv & Big thanks to Meredith for sending us the link!

Okay, if you're feeling hot, sweaty and/or your blood pressure is sky high after watching that video, then you are definitely Robsessed!

(And if not, you're likely just dead.)

That was so freaking good. And interesting article, especially to those of us who really didn't know much about "all that". ; )

Goz. Best. Blog. Ever!


Back to the vid---may have missed something. LOL.

divinemsm said...

Oh and also while I get the chance - perfect song for the beautiful man - Put Your Records On by Corinne Bailey Ray

Petra Eller said...

Long live RobsesseD. I hope so. I sometimes wonder what I did before I became addicted to Rob, and after RobsesseD.
Thank you Kate, Cat, and Gozde
Gossip cop - well they always keep an eye on everything. The video is so hot - it evokes everything back to life that has been dead.(sorry my engl)

Kate said...

@ divinemsm thanks for sending us the link! Wasn't sure which name to put down but your real name was so pretty!

RTP_KJS_Lover said...

Had no idea about any of this! Have seen the other "Robsessed" website by mistake. Always wondered about it...

Love that Gossip Cop called them out on their BS and that they apologized, although it is a round about apology, IMO.

Gozde, your famous! Thanks to you and Kate and Kat for all hard work. Where would we be without you? And Biel video, still blows my mind.

RPLover said...

oh, how I LOVE THAT VIDEO!! Gets better every time I watch it. =)

As for the dvd crap-pfffttt. Sucker somebody else, I'm not buyin'. Glad they apologized, though.

Fantasizing_about_Rob said...

"They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no'"

Love this video :D

From the Oxford English Dictionary:
"syndication (3) A combination of capitalists or financiers entered into for the purpose of prosecuting a scheme requiring large resources of capital, esp. one having the object of obtaining control of the market in a particular commodity. Hence, more widely, a combination of persons formed for the promotion of an enterprise; esp. a combination for the acquisition of articles, etc. and their simultaneous publication in a number of periodicals..."

Key words: 'capital', 'control', acquisition', 'simultaneous'.

Or are they using it as a fancy word to mean 'theft'? Like larceny only vaguer? Cos all syndicated articles are published at more or less the same time, not months after, and usually with the full permission of (and often payment to) the rights holder. That's what 'simultaneous' means.

Sorry if I'm teaching you ladies to suck eggs, but that other site seems to have been sucking something else!

Lemonless said...

Mind you, I'd 'syndicate' Biel's vid if I knew how! It's gorgeous.

jc(britlover) said...

Accolades to RobsessedBlog...yes, the best there is!!!
Biel,again, superb video. Love it!!

FILTM

divinemsm said...

Kate more than happy that you did - I've just Rob-outted myself! Keep it up hon. As you all say FILTM! Now back to watching Haunted Airman with a big glass of wine until the boy gets home from the football.

divinemsm said...

Good god just watched that again and I think my heart is breaking. Is this pathetic? I struggle not to talk to my friends about that - please say I am normal!!!

Fiftyshadesofpink said...

Best blog around, I visit every day.
Kate, Kat and Goz, you are legends and do a brilliant job bringing us the best in all things Rob related.
THANK YOU!

@divinemsm
The Haunted Airman made me cry too, not sure if it was the story or the overdose of sheer beauty that is Rob :)

Fiftyshadesofpink said...

Oh, and Biel's vid - also overdose of beauty.
No rehab for me, thanks!

Lemonless said...

Hey, Fifty (love your new name, it's a blast to type), do you know anyone in the Big Smoke who's going to the premiere?

Fiftyshadesofpink said...

Hi Lemonless!
None that I know of yet. I've been trying to reschedule my meetings for the 17th in the hopes of getting down there myself but not having much luck with that so far... Still working on it.

Lemonless said...

Let me know if you do, and I'll meet you at the airport with a mochalatte!

Fiftyshadesofpink said...

Sounds good to me!

Lemonless said...

Fifty: Now's the time to use the dirt you have on the CEO.

jessegirl said...

@divinemsm: You're normal, even if addicted. You don't want to go to rehab, do you?

@GwenC: That vid will be the death of me. That and Biel's sexy Twilight one...let's just say, not dead yet.

Goz, Kate and Kat: Long may you live! This is the best blog, bar none, devoted to the god of hair and jaw porn. Thank you for permission to comment on the Pretty in all the different shades.
You're #1!

If Biel is listening. Hey girl, any chance of a Cedric vid? Or is the material copyright? All the best bits, even him lying dead, more beautiful than most others ever are alive.
I mean, I know you've spoiled us with all the others, esp. Rehab and Twilight sex, but we're always game for more.

Babs said...

Girls you deserve all the praise that you get because you do an amazing job, with respect and class.
This blog made me Robsessed! I used to read pieces of information about Rob here and there, but then I found this place and will never leave!! :)

SluttyPattz said...

LOL that video was awesome.
Gozde love the blog and Kate and Kat you ladies are amazing.

Biel said...

earest Goz, Kate, Kat,

We all, the ROBsessed community, can't thank you enough for putting so much talent, illusion and effort on this awesome site. As for the sad incident with the other site and its video, you can always think that only the rrrrreally good things are imitated / copied.

Thank YOU so much to everyone for being so sweet and supportive with my stuff! You all know me by now and I'm repeating myself here, but this means so much to me!! Lots of love!!

PS: dear Goz, so happy when I read on twitter you're okay after the earthquake... Love ya!

bonemama said...
