Exclusive! Robert Pattinson Talks to Teen Vogue About His Latest Campaign
Because there's just something great about a guy who likes fragrance. (Especially when that guy is R.Patz).
Few male fragrances have managed to capture female attention quite like Dior Homme Eau for Men. Perhaps that's because the scent—classically masculine according to perfume tradition—gives a couple nods to the ladies with notes like grapefruit and iris.
Or, perhaps more realistically, it has to do with its spokesman: The painfully handsome Mr. Robert Pattinson. (Tink: That's a bingo!)
"The idea of revisiting a classic fragrance was very attractive," says the star, who imagines the scent's wearer to be "a free spirit who does whatever he wants, and is fearless about it." Indeed, the fragrance's film campaign, directed by Romain Gavras, depicts just that:
Viewers can watch as he races a vintage car along the beach, runs on rooftops, kisses (Twilight style!) (Tink: Teen Vogue, you need a time out for acting like DiorRob kisses in the elevator are like Twilight kisses. Don't make us do a compare and contrast post because we happen to love all Rob's kisses but they are not created equal. Ok I'm done.) in an elevator, and more. These various scenes embody a guy who's a lot less Edward Cullen...and a lot more James Dean. (Tink: Ha! The irony never ceases to amuse.)
For R.Patz, it's fitting that the fragrance he's fronting is all about rebellion. "When I was 12, I remember being on holiday in Portugal and watching teenagers going into bars," he says. "I believed that splashing cologne would convince everyone I was an adult. I thought wearing perfume was the cool thing to do." Reluctantly, he adds, "That...and hair gel."
But, Rob acknowledges, it's totally possible that the dude who wears this scent may be slightly outdone—by the ladies. In fact, he seems undeterred by the female fanbase the fragrance has garnered. (Tink: Is anyone surprised by the female fanbase flocking towards DiorRob?)
"She's a girl of her own mind," he imagines, "refusing to smell 'pretty' or do what's expected of her. And clearly someone who isn't confused about her idea of femininity."
Luckily, this free-spirited lady is a familiar figure in the actor's life. "My mum's quite a dominant personality," he explains, "so I've always been very comfortable around girls." (Tink: Heeeeeeeey! How you doin, Rob?)
Somehow, we think the feeling might be mutual.Via
Robert Pattinson was the toast of the town Thursday night at the sixth annual GO GO Gala.Excerpt from the LA Times:
GO Campaign co-founder and CEO Scott Fifer thanked Pattinson on behalf of the 25 impoverished Cambodian girls he indirectly helped with an auction contribution. The actor donated a meet-and-greet on the set of “Twilight: Breaking Dawn” for the non-profit’s online auction two years ago that sold to woman in Chicago for $80,000. That funding led to the creation of a Program Advancing Girls’ Education (PAGE) in Cambodia.
“It’s been remarkable how one auction item from a person in the Hollywood community can translate into changing the lives of girls forever,” Fifer said before the gala.
The PAGE home will expand from 25 to 35 girls early next year.
The “Twilight” star continued his charitable streak by participating in the liveliest auction of the night. Pattinson bid $5,600 to win a cello made out of recycled material (built by Paraguay’s Recycled Orchestra of Cateura). The overall event raised more than $500,000.
The Recycled Orchestra, which plays instruments made from garbage found in landfills, also performed last night, eliciting a standing ovation from the crowd. Maracas hand-made with beer and tomato paste cans adorned the tables.

Auction sales have contributed mightily to the charity’s revenue, and actor Robert Pattinson, for one, has supported the GO Campaign as a buyer and seller. In addition to winning a recycled cello at the Nov. 14 shindig with his high bid of $5,600, Pattinson previously helped build a girls’ home in Cambodia by offering himself up for a “meet and greet” on the set of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn.” Bidding online at Charitybuzz.com, a Chicago woman reportedly paid $80,000 for that privilege.
“We call [the Cambodia home] the house that ‘Twilight’ built,” said Scott Fifer, the charity’s founder.Oh wow. :') Click HERE to read more about the event!
"Pattinson grabbed a drink at the bar before chatting with friends during cocktail hour. R.Pattz was smiley and chatty with a group of friends, acting super talkative and in a great mood while mingling and supporting the charity.And here's Rob getting his cello ;-)
Pattinson sat down to dinner where he continued to chat with folks at his table as event host Adam Shankman began the show. The 27-year-old star ate and drank while chatting with a female pal sitting next to him during the bash.
Pattinson also quietly bid on and won a cello made out of recycled material for $5,600."
Robert Pattinson was certainly in a good mood at tonight's GO GO Gala in L.A.! The hunky Twilight actor arrived with pals (sans rumored love interest Dylan Penn) and looked super handsome in a dark blue suit at the charity event, which works to improve the lives of orphans and vulnerable children around the world.

The 27-year-old star ate and drank while chatting with a female pal sitting next to him during the bash. At one point during the night, charity co-founder Scott Fifer thanked Pattinson for being one of the online auction prizes several years ago (a lucky bidder paid $85,000 for a Twilight set visit to meet him!) and Rob blushed and smiled as the crowd cheered for him.A little excerpt about the Go Campaign:
GO Campaign identifies deserving Local Heroes throughout the world and partners with these grassroots organizations to provide children and young adults with critical services, resources and needed opportunities. We offer support and raise awareness about these small, highly-impactful organizations that might not otherwise come to your attention. Our partners develop programs to provide children and young adults with basic human needs such as shelter, food, clean water, education, medical care, vocational training, and income-generating activities. We believe that providing today’s orphans and vulnerable children with these tools and opportunities to better their future is a critical part of the solution when it comes to fighting poverty. History has shown that the most effective way to fight poverty and make a difference in the lives of children is through small grants to grassroots organizations – and that’s what GO Campaign does best.Click HERE to read more and click HERE to donate to the Go Campaign (Nick is listed as a Friend of the organization!).
