Today 6:09 PM PDT by Marc MalkinRobert Pattinson gives good lip service.
Kisses from the man himself were just auctioned off for oodles of money at the Cannes Film Festival.
Read on for all the kiss-and-tell details...
R.Patzz was a guest at tonight's über-chic amfAR benefit, sitting at a table with Italian designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana (yes, Rob was in a D&G tux) and French Vogue Editor-in-Chief Carine Roitfeld.

Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein joked from the stage that his daughters changed their last name to Pattison after they saw Twilight. "Harvey then suggested auctioning off an opportunity for someone's daughter to meet and get a kiss on the cheek from Pattinson," a fellow partygoer says. "There were two bidders who paid 20,000 euros each for their daughters to have that kiss."
In U.S. cash, that's about $55,000!
"Harvey put him on the spot, in a playful way," my source says. "And Rob agreed to it in his usual brooding, modest way."
P.S.: The winning bidders were not the parents of Kristen Stewart or Nikki Reed.
For a fantastic cause... but still the oddest thing I've seen happen to him yet!!
ReplyDeleteKudos for him for the Harvey Weinstein shout-out. On stage no less. Doors opening left and right..
Yet another test in Cannes to see how much discomfort Rob can bear with grace. This one's for a good cause, and he's holding up really well.
ReplyDeleteLove the disclaimer that neither Kristen or Nikki's parents were in on the bidding! It's important to get these things straight from the get-go.

ReplyDelete"And if it goes well, maybe it'll turn into something more." Aww Rob...
ReplyDeleteWow that much money for a kiss from Rob? *sigh* Sucks being broke (lol), but then again there's not much to brag about if you have to spend truckloads of cash for Rob to kiss you. =P
ReplyDeleteOn a brighter note, Dolce & Gabbana (or in this case the D&G line) looks GOOD on Rob!
An Amazing Cause
ReplyDeleteAn Amazing Guy
And Amazing Shoes!
Hannah..
ReplyDeleteMy mum (rest her soul)

if they were good and clean, respectively.. it was ok to proceed
Where, oh where did I go wrong, here?
(Sorry mum)
HAPPY FRIDAY LADIES!
Rob in Italy?
is that $55,000 each, or total?
ReplyDeleteit's 40k total, dunno if € or $ though, I guess $
ReplyDelete1 euro is $1.3998 so...
ReplyDelete40.000 (2 x 20.000) euros = $56.000
as it was in France the auction was in euros (and finished at 40.000 euros)
ReplyDeletecouldn't watch video from the auction because his (sweet) embarassment ... how long will it take that the world takes it from him and either spoils (doubt) or bitter him...
ReplyDelete"The winning bidders were not the parents of Kristen Stewart or Nikki Reed".LMAO Oh Marc how you slay me...Ha Ha. Okay,really I'm not laughing,at all. I'm so over this issue. Damn, like I said before I can't wait until he moves on and can work around new people. He so needs a new start being around fresh talent. No more stale...
ReplyDeleteSuz - My mum tells me the EXACT same thing!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am a Mum (of 2 young men) and I say the same : look at their hands :)))) I have always been checking man's hands
ReplyDeletethe title almost gave me a heart attack. XD
ReplyDeletegood cause, good rob, probably good kiss :D
Well, since I am not in France, I guess it is not me... brrrrr...
