Rob sightings

From Pepole.com:

Caught in the Act

Robert Pattinson, mingling in the VIP room at a party following the Juno Awards (the Canadian Grammys) at Vancouver's Velvet Room inside the Opus Hotel. The Twilight star arrived after the Universal Music bash was in full swing, then grabbed a martini and some food – much to the delight of many of the waitresses working the soiree. According to a source, several servers giddily greeted the actor, who was "gracious and really enjoying himself."

And one of the ROBsessed readers have another account of the night at Richard's on Richards in downtown Vancouver (the one where Adaline met Rob). According to her the party was an invite only party and most of the people at the event were professionals and that's why there will probably be no pictures form the night.

She says she got to hang out with Rob, Sam, Sam's manager and a couple of other friends.

"Luckily he was not bothered too much by fans due to the nature of the party, but he was still all smiles and totally willing to chat with whomever decided to approach him. He was not taking pictures with anyone though because then he would have had to take pictures with everyone that came up and he was clearly just there to hang out and enjoy the music happening. I didn't personally see any "warm embrace" but there were a few girls that looked like "Adaline" that approached him at different points in the night.
Anyway, Rob and Sam were just such nice guys and Rob is totally just a normal 22-year old guy that likes good music, hanging out with his friends and getting his drink on. Oh yeah, and no, he doesn't smell, hahaha. To be honest he is a little dorky in his mannerisms which is endearing.

For the record, I'm not a Twilight fan, but I've seen his interviews and he seemed like a fun guy to chill with which is why I decided to approach him and also Sam is a great local musician which I am always all about supporting."(Gozde: If I ever bump into Rob I am SO denying any connection to this site,Twilight,Little Ashes. I'll even change my name! :))

Gozde:

No pictures sorry. I was sent a picture earlier today but it is seriously stalkerrific so I am not posting it :)

Also, last night some people were giving Rob's hotel's name in the comments section, whether he stays there or not I won't say but How giving out his location makes ANY sense to you is beyond me. If you know it (and I do, not by choice, I was sent the info) keep it to yourself! So NOT cool people, so NOT cool...(the monster judges you!) .

Bump into him? Go for it. His hotel? Don't go for it :)) (Unless he asks you to go for it, then I want details :P Just kidding!(or not))

"What a Load of Crap!" Post of the Day

According to Life & Style Weekly, Taylor Lautner has taken Robert Pattinson's leading-man duties in "New Moon" as Jacob Black. Apparently the newly announced cast, which forms the movie's wolf pack, is treading upon Pattinson's heartthrob territory.(Gozde: Yeah, good luck with that! :))

Plus, the crew has reportedly been leaking rumors about his bad hygiene, and his co-stars are telling tabloid tales about his pick-up lines. What's wrong with "You remind me of my dead ex-girlfriend"? (Just kidding; he didn't say that. He does say this, and sometimes he also says this.)

Meanwhile, Taylor Lautner's supposedly reveling in his new role, and has packed on roughly 30 pounds of muscle -- now that's something to howl at the "New Moon" about.

Sources also claim the ladies on set are really taking notice of Lautner's transformation, particularly Kristen Stewart.

While Stewart got cozy with Pattinson during the production of "Twilight," we hear she's ditched the Vampire in favor of the Wolfman. The duo have been filming scenes together on remote Tofino, British Columbia, beaches, and were spotted keeping each other company off-set, too.(Gozde: Poor Kristen, if she makes a movie with a "dog" next they will start saying she is cozying up to the "dog" :))

So, how is the admittedly insecure Pattinson handling the attention transition?

"He's feeling very worried about his status as a fading superstar," an insider tells Life & Style. "And his friends are also concerned that Robert's 'Twilight' success may have only been short-lived, and they feel bad for him."(Gozde: Excuse me while I pee my pants laughing at this CRAP!)

Luckily for Robert, he has that new Salvador Dali biopic, "Little Ashes," coming out next month. Soon he'll be wooing a whole new segment of the fangirl population: artsy/indie/hipster chicks. (Gozde: I didn't get the memo that we weren't supposed to like Rob before.)

Sam Bradley: Rob is thankful

Twilight Examiner Amanda Bell has been writing a lot of very good article about Rob. You should definitely check her out :)

She recently interviewed Sam Bradley. Rob's long time friend and co-writer of Never Think. Here is what he said about Rob:

As for his friendship with Robert Pattinson, Sam says that “I’ve spent a lot of time with Rob over the last couple of months, and [notoriety] hasn’t affected him at all.” Says Bradley, “when we go out and when someone approaches him . . . he gets a bit nervous, I think . . . that’s his first reaction, and then, once he settles, which takes a second or so, he is . . . thankful.” Robert Pattinson is, says Sam, “quite . . . proud, you know, that he’s achieving something, and people are always appreciative. Like, I rarely have I ever seen, never actually, . . . anything negative, and so it’s a good feeling when someone comes up to you and sort of just says nice things to you, and, you know, he always says nice things back. So, you know, he’s the same guy. He just talks to a lot of people.”

You can read the rest of the interview HERE and check out Sam's music at his myspace page.

Robert Pattinson Interview with MTV Japan

Rob in Vancouver Last Night!

Amanda bumped into Robert Pattinson and Sam Bradley last night and she sent us the pictures!



So EVERYONE wants to know WHERE... unfortunately NO, I CANNOT TELL YOU WHERE

the bartender at this place told me that he eats there often and i dont want girls bombarding him cuz he was already pissed when we asked to take pictures

As we were paying and about to leave from a friend's birthday dinner, the famous ROBERT PATTINSON walks right in! how did i know? i see this all too familiar black coat on some guy and im like im going to ask this dude where he got his coat from so i can buy one for my boyfriend. the dude turns around and its Robert Pattinson with friend Sam Bradley.(Gozde: I think she meant to say "He turns around and it is Robert F***ing Pattinson! :)).

so i think i looked like i saw a ghost and i asked my really hot friend to ask him for a picture...and so my friend sat beside him and was like can i have a picture with you? and he said really? and she was like yeah really and he didn't seem like he wanted one but he took one anyways... but the best part is that my friend had asked Sam Bradley to take our picture and im like NO, He's famous too! lol so the waiter took our picture.

my other twilight friend rushed over to the restaurant and after a hour wait. The guys came out for a smoke and with lady who wouldn't leave them alone, so she took our picture. They told us to go to Sam's show and i told them to come to my bday party at the a club in vancouver and i asked them if they knew where it was, and sam's like on granville? and im like yea it'll be a good time there! the whole time Robert was laughing (maybe he was a little tipsy? but HE SMELT LIKE COLOGNE NOT B.O.) but he was quiet cuz i think twi-mom was annoying them :(

Miu Miu Boy: Robert Pattinson

Today is the day that keeps giving :)) The zygote strikes with a vengeance! I gotta say I am impressed he was in a Miu Miu ad at that age!

From Just Jared:

The 22-year-old British actor cozies up to model Lucy Flower in Miu Miu swimming shorts in one of his first modeling gigs ever from 2001, thanks to Star mag via Popstar!

Lucy tells Star, “Robert was such a shy, reserved little boy back then, I never would have thought he had that kind of super stardom ahead of him!”

FREE Magazine - Greece

Thanks to our Greek reader Evi for the scans and the translation :))

How do you feel about getting the role, while there were casted so many actors? The fans of the book got 75.000 signs because they didn’t want you. How did you feel about it?

When you are going to an audition for a role that many consider as the perfect man, you expect people to be suspicious. But I don’t really care.

There are many girls that would like to go to bed with you. How do you handle it?

I don’t know. I don’t have enough time to stay in a place. I only meet journalists. But it’s really weird that 10-years old fellows come to me and say “Please bite me!” .

Speaking of biting, who you’d like to bite?

I don’t think I’d like to bite anyone. I don’t like biting.

Have you ever had lessons to manage your profile? Your fans are young people. Was there anyone who told you what to do and how to be?

Yes! They sent me in a centre to learn how to manage my profile for the media. I thought that it’s very stupid. Probably I can do whatever I want because I’m a vampire in the big screen. I was supposed to have the profile of the “bad” guy. It’s hilarious. I remember that when I went to that centre, I was having humor to their questions and they looked annoyed. They accused me of opposing to learn how to manage myself for the media.

What is most important to you? To be an actor or a musician?

Both are really important to me. I think I take them seriously. I mean that I haven’t written music for a long time, I don’t want to be another actor who played in a successful movie and then released an album. I want to compose a really good album, but sometime that it won’t be comparable to acting.

What kind of music do you want to make? Indie rock or folk?

Folky rock!

You have a song in the Twilight OST. Have you been asked from the director to write it?

Well, I’ve written it a long time ago. A crew member gave it to the director and she put it in a scene, without telling me. At first, I didn’t recognize it. I was happy and I suggested putting it, retaining my anonymity but they didn’t let me because of the marketing. That was my first song that was recorded officially.

How was your life before getting the role of Edward Cullen?

Last year I had a great apartment in Soho where you could go to the roof and watch the great view. I played music and I tried to record it. But then I went to Spain for the movie “Little Ashes” and everything changed. It was the first time that I was researching about something. I haven’t seen the movie yet but either if it’s bad or good, it surely changed the way I feel about acting and made me more obedient about what I can achieve of acting when I see the scripts.

How did you pay for a big apartment in Soho?

It wasn’t big. Actually, it was the smallest you’ve ever seen and it was empty. It only had two garden chairs and nothing else. No carpet, no heating, no bathroom. I had to go to my parents’ house to take a bath. But it was perfect. I thought my lifestyle was bohemian. I was sad when I left it.

Why did you leave it?

Because there are some renovations in London and the rent raised 5.000 pounds. I was in U.S.A. for a whole year because of the filming of Twilight. I was practically paying for an apartment that my friends were living in. So I left it.

Do you miss London?

Yes, very much. I was there before two days and I was surprised of how much I miss it.

Where do you live now?

Nowhere.

So you’re a bohemian guy again?

Yes, someway…

Are you excited that you’re going to be a “vampire” for the next ten years?

Yes but that’s not going to last so much because vampires aren’t getting old. So I can’t do it for more than the next two years. It will be ridiculous.

For how many movies have you signed?

For three movies. The filming for New Moon has already began.

What do you think makes people so much interested in vampires right now?

I don’t know. It’s like domino phenomenon. Something is successful and then everybody is filming scripts for vampires.

Do you like vampires?

Yes. But I don’t understand those who say that they like everything that is related with vampires. I liked the first Nosferatu and things like that.

Are you addicted to something?

I was very addicted to Van Morrison.

"Twilight" takes lead in '09 video sales

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – "Twilight" has quickly become the biggest home-video release of the year, selling 5.6 million units during its first eight days, according to trade publication Home Media Magazine.

The vampire romance took the crown from "Madgascar: Escape 2 Africa," which has sold an estimated 5.3 million units since its February 6 release, according to Home Media research.

"Twilight," like the "Madagascar" sequel, wasn't released on the traditional Tuesday street date. Rather, the film arrived on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on Saturday, March 21 ("Madagascar" came out on a Friday).

The release sold 3 million units its first day in stores, according to distributor Summit Entertainment, enough to send it to the top of the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert sales chart for the week ended March 22.

Just 3 percent of the film's total unit sales came from Blu-ray Disc, not surprising given the "Twilight's" Blu-ray Disc edition is being sold only at Target Stores and Best Buy until May 5.

Contact Your Local Theatre To Request Little Ashes

Little Ashes will be in opening in US in select theatres starting May 8th. You can see the schedule HERE. You can also call your local "art" movie theatre and request them to show the movie in their theatre. It is important for the recognition of the movie so pick up your phone and get to dialing :))

Also this is from Little Ashes Promotional Blitz has an older article from Valladolid Film Festival, with some interesting commentary by Javier Beltrán about Little Ashes(via LA Spanish Blog). It gives you some insight to the film.

The special friendship that the playwright Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1936) and painter Salvador Dalí (1904-1989) had: intellectual, creative and effective, is the main point in the film ‘Little Ashes,' from British film maker Paul Morrison and with the Spanish actor Javier Beltrán who plays the poet. More so than the supposed homosexuality from both, that Morrison does not hide in this film, he also wants to show up to what point both " influenced each other's work and personal life." Javier Beltrán explains before attending the premier of the film in the Valladolid Festival.

"Even though the homosexuality between the two is there and you only need to open three or four books to prove it because it has not been hidden, the director did not try to hide from it with the consensus of all the actors. They have been two very important characters to just treat them as ordinary." Beltrán has made clear that "its not just the story of two people," but the intent to know more of the work of two creators through their lives and in a special way in which the friendship they had in 1922, when they met in La Residencia de Estudiantes, and in 1936, when Garcia Lorca was executed in Granada.

The objective is to find out "how much Lorca is in Dalí's (played by Robert Pattinson) work and how much Dalí is in Garcia Lorca's work" says the actor who incarnates the author of ‘Yerma,' his first acting on film. For Beltrán the objectivity in the treatment of this delicate subject is guaranteed and accentuated in the creation of the director of ‘Little Ashes,' far from the political, social and cultural taboo's with what is could of been a Spanish director. Morrison's "point of view is not conditional" says one of the actors of the film.

Also adding that, by extension, "a film about Luis Buñuel (Matthew McNulty) and Pepin Bello (Bruno Oro)," among other tenants of Madrid's Residencia de Estudiantes, and also about the denominated "Generation of 27." The movie was filmed in Barcelona, where Madrid has been recreated fro the 20's and the golden years of the Residencia de Estudiantes. Also in Cadaqués (Gerona), where Lorca and Dalí spent a vacation together. Paul Morrison (London, 1944), resides in his native city and has a career as a director, producer and screenwriter in film and television series.

Thanks to Crazy for telling me to encourage people for the requests :)

Creepiest Rob Photo Yet?

Creepiest Rob Photo Yet? I think so...

Is it Rob? Is it Darth Vader?

This was taken at the Storyeum Afterparty Sunday night. You can see Michael Angarano on the couch and next to him is Kristen with her red plaid shirt.

Should I have posted this? Big internal dilemma went on. So I decided to post with a disclaimer: Poor boy can't even enjoy a party without having a hood on to hide under. If you "meet" Rob don't be a creep, ask for a photo and if he says no move on and if he doesn't even look like he wants to be asked, move on....

And a very true observation from Erin: Pretty strong energy in this pic every single female body is turned towards him, he must be very aware of that even with his back turned.

Thanks to Anna for sending me the pic.

Glamour Interview (Spain)

Vale at Twilight Poison translated an interview Rob did with Glamour Spain. I am posting some parts here.

Does Twilight remind you of your real life and high school, when two people are attracted to each other with such energy?
Yes, although I had really bad luck with girls, the ones I liked hated me and the ones that liked me were not my type. But that’s something that I still go through, I like girls that I shouldn’t like. But I’m learning and now I take my time before I let the girl know. (Gozde: I think you took enough time Rob. See the contact us box on the right? Get on it:))

skipped

How are you handling being the new It Boy, being in so many covers of magazines now all over the world?

I don’t mind, my character is so good and he deserves to be admired. From the moment I signed up for this I knew what I was getting myself into. Edward is a vampire, he’s not a hero like Superman, he’s a vampire in love who wants to be normal. (Gozde: So it was one of THOSE days for Rob when he was doing this interview :) He says he doesn't mind being on so many covers. Himm, I am SURE I heard a different answer for that before :))

It took him 90 years for him to find love. Do you believe in love at first sight?
That’s so boring! I think we all have the right to fall in love several times. The conventional idea of love, the idea of being with somebody for the rest of your life and love her forever sounds so silly to me, and so unrealistic. I think you can love ten people at the same time (laughs).(Gozde: Uhoh! Refer to :

What would you be capable of doing for love?
I don’t know, climb a mountain? (Gozde: Hahahaha! I love his answer to the pointless question:)

Would it scare you to fall in love like the characters in Twilight?
Yes, because it’s an obsessive love, a sick love. When you fall in love and you lose yourself like that. Imagine falling in love like that!

Do you get hit on by difficult women?
I’m crazy about independent women who don’t require too much attention.

Have you ever used the phrase “I’m an actor” as a pick up line?
Not, that phrase doesn’t wok here in LA - everybody is an actor here.

Are you planning on going to college?
Yes, but I’m planning on taking it slowly, probably when I’m 28. As an actor you have to take advantage of the opportunities you get and not letting them pass by.

How did you feel at 17?
I felt increadibly awkward all the time. I’ve always been a very edgy person, especially in those years that I didn’t find my place, everything scared me. I just started reading again my journals from when I was 17….

Do you talk about love in them?
Actually, no. I’ve only been attracted to two women in my whole life. (Gozde: Why do I think this is one of THOSE answers? :))

Do you remember the first time you loved someone?
Yes. It’s weird to enjoy your first love, especially if the relationship lasts a long time. Our relationship was really beautiful, but we didn’t have an obsessive love like in the movie. Her presence in my life made me very happy for three years. Now it’s kind of hard to talk about it. (Gozde: Oh wow...)

You can read the rest of the interview and the parts that I skipped over at Twilight Poison.

How Do You Take Your Men?

LifeTime TV asks: How Do You Take Your Men?

Gozde: Umm...*giggles*....Too much fanfic is messing with my brain :))

Bald? With long locks? Is a man's hair (or lack thereof) a deciding factor for you?

Personally, I'm always a little weirded out when I encounter a man with hair longer than mine (shoulder-length or below). I also find a longer look, like McDreamy's, only suits a small number of men over a certain age. The majority of the time, it just seems like they're trying to hold on to their youth and/or hide a bald spot.

A shaved or short(er) style, however, is a sign of confidence in my books and a look I've come to love. There's just something so masculine about it. (Gozde: Oh I SO agree!)

You can go and vote for Rob's lovely locks HERE.
