Rob and Will Young ?

According to Contact Music :

ROBERT PATTINSON is planning his music career - he wants to work with British singer WILL YOUNG.
The Twilight star has frequently mentioned his love for music, insisting it is a career backup plan should his film roles dry up.
And Pattinson, who sang on the vampire movie's soundtrack and has performed impromptu gigs in London, is keen to move into the pop genre and duet with the Leave Right Now hitmaker.
He says, "Will has a great voice and it would blend really well with mine but I bet he has no idea who I am. But you never know.

Gozde: Do I believe he said this? Well he says a lot of stuff and Will does have a great voice so you never know :))

Thanks to Rocio for the tip :)

Robert Pattinson Tells Us Which Love Stories Inspire Him And Lots More In A NEW Interview

Robert Pattinson Tells Us Which Love Stories Inspire Him And Lots More In A NEW Interview



Photo Credit: Bauer-Griffin LLC

LOS ANGELES—ROBERT PATTINSON usually arrives at our interviews with an easy, sly grin on his face. The smile reminds us that we’re in for another humor-filled talk with the guy.

What was different this time was his haircut—cropped on the side—which made him look younger.

In this chat, Robert talks about his anxiety over the coming end of the “Twilight” series, how he feels about the kissing scenes between Kristen Stewart’s Bella and Taylor Lautner’s Jacob, and a life-changing moment, among others.

Robert has come a long way from the first time we interviewed him on the London set of “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” in which he played Cedric Diggory.

Screaming Girls Is Part Of My Job

Entertainmentwise.com has an interview with Rob.

EW: Hundreds of “Twilight” fans invaded Leicester Square for the film’s premiere, do you ever get used to the screaming?

ROB PATTINSON: No not really! I don’t know why I’m not used to it yet because it’s happened with absolutely everything to do with ‘Twilight’. But yeah, I’m completely overwhelmed by it.

EW: Has the success of the film changed your life much? Are you planning to decamp to Hollywood?

RP: I was living in L.A. on and off for a few months, but my life hasn’t changed that much. I dunno, maybe little weird things like people following you to your house is strange! But all the screaming and stuff seems so separate from my life. I can still go on the tube and not be noticed, it just feels like the girls screaming is part of the job, like they get paid to be there.

EW: There’s a lot of sexual tension in the film, did you work with Kristin a lot beforehand to achieve it?

RP: I’d just walk into Kristin’s bedroom naked, just to shock her! (laughs) Not really. I don’t know, I guess all the romantic scenes in the film are kind of pivotal. It’s funny because we were both wearing contact lenses in the film. So much of those scenes relies on eye contact, and we had these ‘masks’ on our eyes so I was really worrying that there wouldn’t be anything there, so it’s very lucky that people thought there was.

EW: Does your appearance on the film’s soundtrack mean you are planning to launch a music career as well?

RP: I don’t really have any intension of release an album…it’s strange, there’s such a stigma attached to actors who release music, maybe I’ll just try and do it anonymously, or wait until I’m unemployable

EW: With a sequel in the works, do you worry about forever being associated with the series?

RP: Yeah I guess it makes it a little scary to decide what your next job is. But if you choose things carefully, and do good movies then I don’t think you can get typecast. At least I hope not!

EW: Finally, what’s it like seeing your face on buses?

RP: It’s scary! It’s a bit like ‘1984’, like your image is everywhere. It’s not good if you’re someone who suffers from extreme paranoia!

Repeat offenders

The post is not as controversial as the title :) There are lots of links to pieces of articles from UK this morning but most of them are just repetition of one another so I'm not posting them. But if you want to check them out:

People.com:
Method acting?

Vampire-playing Robert Pattinson admits he sometimes slips into character when he's out with the ladies.

"I've been known for a little nibble," he told reporters at the London premiere of Twilight.
Channel 4 News :
Heart-throb Pattinson said: "I made a bet as a joke with my manager to say how much it would make opening weekend and it made that much. It's like it'll make $80 million and it was like $5 million off. No one was expecting - it beat Bond opening weekend - it's completely nuts."

Vauxhall Crossed Writer/Producer Clears Up Robert Pattinson Rumors

As I called yesterday the Contact Music News was wrong, no secret agent role for Rob...yet... :)

A New Role for Robert Pattinson?

The following is from Contact Music which is not a very reliable. They are known to print BS (check here) but they claim Robert Pattinson is up for a new part: Prince Harry ....

I'm calling this "insert Robert Pattinson's name for hits/publicity for your new movie" :)

GRINT AND PATTINSON UP FOR ROYAL ROLE

RUPERT GRINT and ROBERT PATTINSON have both been tipped to play PRINCE HARRY in a movie about the British monarch's life.
Director Peter Kosminsky is set to begin casting for biopic The Spare, which will depict the royal's experience losing his mother Princess Diana and serving for the Army in Afghanistan.
The filmmaker is said to be considering British actors Grint and Pattinson for the lead, as well as Pride and Prejudice star Rupert Friend, according to Britain's Daily Star newspaper.
Kosminsky explains, "I feel a sense of compassion for the guy (Prince Harry). His parents break up in the most spectacularly public way, his mother dies in the most tragic and, again, public way and everything is picked over.
"He's a man born to no role. His brother's the heir and Harry's the spare."
The White Oleander filmmaker is refusing to rule out recruiting an American star, adding: "My personal approach as a director is that I read the script and people start to pop into my head."

New Movie for Robert Pattinson or Free Promotion Attempt?

From ContactMusic.com:

STUNTMAN MAKES DIRECTORIAL DEBUT WITH POTTER PAL PATTINSON

Blockbuster stuntman PETER PEDRERO is to make his directorial debut an all-star affair after landing his two-time HARRY POTTER pal ROBERT PATTINSON and DANNII MINOGUE among the familiar faces in VAUXHALL CROSSED.
Pedrero, who has performed stunts in all the Potter films as well as James Bond movies Goldeneye and The World Is Not Enough and Braveheart and The Mummy, will direct the British spy movie at Pinewood Studios in England, where the 007 movies are shot.
The film, about American and MI6 agents who team up to take down a psychotic dictator, also features The Full Monty star Hugo Speer.

Gozde: Here is the IMDB page for the movie no mention of Rob. Contact Music has been publishing (what we call) CRAP for the past month. So I'll say "I don't think this is true since I can NOT see Rob making a movie with Dannii Minogue.

He would be a HOT MI6 agent though (as pictured below reaching for his gun or just looking very 007:))

Thanks to out fab Kim for the tip :)

Jennifer Love Hewitt might get her chance to meet Robert Pattinson

One of Rob's celebrity fangirls just might get her meet & greet! It's no secret that Jennifer Love Hewitt loves her some Robert Pattinson. She talked about her mission to meet him at the Eclipse premiere HERE. Then the heartbreak, the fail. She talks about how it was mission unaccomplished HERE.

Now the girl went and got herself a job that comes close to guaranteeing a run in with the dashing Robert.



From Contact Music:

JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT has landed her dream job - she has been hired to cover the red carpet at the final TWILIGHT movie premiere for TV show ACCESS HOLLYWOOD.

The die hard fan revealed she has yet to meet Twilight hero Robert Pattinson after he snubbed her at a photo signing, and now TV bosses have stepped in to make her wish come true.

Appearing on Access Hollywood Live on Tuesday (01Feb11), the actress told host Billy Bush, "I actually waited in line to take a picture of him (Pattinson) after the very first premiere for, like, an hour and 15 minutes and, as I got up to take my picture, they were like, 'Robert, are you tired?' He's like, 'Yes', and he left."

But then Bush offered her the job of a lifetime, asking Hewitt if she'd be interested in reporting on the red carpet at the next Twilight premiere.

Thrilled Hewitt screamed and said, "Are you kidding? Really...? Oh my God... This is amazing... I'm gonna get (vampire) teeth... I'm gonna get him (Pattinson) to sit on my lap."

This is too funny and too cute. Jennifer is a massive fangirl and I have no doubt she will get to meet him this time. Maybe she'll have a fold-up chair on standby for her interview? She needs to enlist Shaun Robinson on her mission. Rob likes Shaun. This is going to be hilarious to watch. Stay tuned! Well...we have a bit of a wait ;)

Robert Pattinson NOT Up For Royal Role

Color me surprised. As I called it the other day Robert Pattinson is NOT in the running for the new Prince Harry Movie... Good going contact music.com you still have a long way to catch OK! though...

From Gossip Cop:

Is a vampire battling a wizard for royalty?

The Internet is buzzing with talk that “Twilight” heartthrob Robert Pattinson and “Harry Potter” sidekick Rupert Grint are on the short list to play Britain’s Prince Harry in an upcoming film called The Spare. According to stories on E! and elsewhere, the two young stars, along with Rupert Friend, are “among the hotties in the running” for the lead role. OK! goes so far as to declare, “Robert Pattinson is in line to play Prince Harry in a new movie.”

To borrow a phrase from our British friends — bullocks!

Director Peter Kosminsky never actually said whether Pattinson, Grint, or anyone else was being considered for the prince. The Harry biopic is still too far off. An associate of Kosminsky tells Gossip Cop that he has another movie he’s working on, and in terms of casting for The Spare, they’re “not at that stage.”

Stubborn as a bull in more than one way

Robert Pattinson on his role, suffering and human side of Edward Cullen
by Robert Wise

Robert Pattinson, handsome 23 year old British actor probably doesn't need a special introduction. Only a short one will do: he's the vampire from Twilight who conquered so many hearts. He is also the man who knows what he is talking about. It's a pleasure talking to him and one can see he is not an airhead, what we can occasionally say for some other celebrities. In New Moon he once again gives us an excellent performance of the mysterious Edward Cullen. It was easier this time, he says.

Do you like interviews?
I don' mind them. But it's true: foreign journalists are better than American. They follow questions and answers, while American tend to make you say whatever their editor wants to hear. It would be better to have a list of things they want me to say and I would just say them. So they could always be content.

What was the most frequent question asked in the last few days?
They kept asking me if we were doing practical jokes during making the movie. They want to know that concerning every movie. Do you make practical jokes while sitting in your office? (Gozde: You mean like poking your coworkers with a sharp stick? Sure...All the time :))

We had the scans and new pics from this Interview this morning (Click HERE if you missed them) Now read the translation of the interview below.



Translation (Source)

Robert Pattinson: The Phoenix.

Is there a life after "Twilight"? It's the question that the actor has been trying to answer by lending his talent to arthouse films and his sex appeal to the Dior fragrance. We met up with him.

"The most important is to be cool!" After five years spent in the eye of the storm in Hollywood, Robert Pattinson finally gets it. The revelation didn't come up to him while he was walking his dog in the streets of Los Angeles. It's always felt like there was something awkward about him. And he's always had a hard time hiding (maybe he wasn't really trying) the fact that he didn't really feel like he belonged in the kind of cinema for which he's now an icon. "Acting in a movie that you wouldn't normally go see yourself can complicate things a little," he admits. "It's hard to talk about it, hard to promote it, hard to feel connected to the public... Before I met David Cronenberg who hired me to be in "Cosmospolis", I always felt like I was getting roles that I didn't really get to choose. I was mostly trying not to sink. For the first time ever, I felt like I was chosen for my talent. David gave me that confidence that I didn't possess. It changed everything in the way I viewed my job as an actor."

This week we have THE DARKEST JOY by Marata Eros just released Feb. 18th! Marata is a New York Times and USA Today best selling author and her latest is "a sexy and poignant new adult novel about two lost souls who find each other in the wake of tragedy—only to learn that love may not be enough to heal the wounds of a dark and tortured past…" Here's the official synopsis:

Twenty year-old Brooke Starr has escaped the aftermath of a brutal tragedy by abandoning her music studies and moving north to take a summer position as a part-time deck hand on a fishing boat. When her survivor's guilt becomes unbearable, Brooke realizes there's only one thing she can do to finally erase the pain.  

Deep-sea fisherman, Chance Taylor, has just wrapped his guitar set at the local saloon when he sees the silhouette of a young woman, the full moon highlighting her shadow as she plummets from a pier too high for diving...into water too cold to survive. Without thinking, he plunges in after her, saving Brooke from drowning.  

As Chance works to save her from her own emotional fragility, Brooke finally begins to learn how to save herself. But when their chemistry begins to consume them, Brooke withdraws. She's determined to be the master of her own destiny...until the past catches up with her in a cataclysmic plan so dark, so final - it threatens their love - and their lives. Electryfying, mysterious and utterly captivating, THE DARKEST JOY shows just what happens when a tormented past comes back to haunt you - and may never let you move on.
