Still basking in the glory “New Moon’s” opening weekend, Robert Pattinson was spotted out to dinner in New York City last night (November 22).
The “Twilight” stud looked a bit camera-shy as he made his way out of Megu Japanese restaurant in downtown Manhattan where he was said to be having dinner with costar Kristen Stewart.
Thanks FePattz for the tip :)

And the beanie is back! Aah loving the hobo ;-)
Love the buttonfly pants! I'm hopeless...
Kristen must have vanished, how is that there are always photos of Rob and never photos of Kristen, yet reports always they were together. Somebody is clearly lying!
Oh, and happy hobo-Rob day everyone, nice to have him back :) He looks very vulnerable without glasses. :(
Alex, Rob may or may not have been eating dinner with Kristen Stewart, but it's clear that he takes the brunt of the paparazzi pictures so whoever he's eating with doesn't have to have their picture taken. JMO
mmmmmmmm, he looks so good here.
Rob got himself some new clothing items from this promo-tour (the jacket) - Good for him!!! Welcome back beanie :D
nice to see him after all the premieres!!breathless again.........:D
Yeah, the old good beanie is back. Even though he can afford to buy millions of new hats now, he still wears this one. I love him!!!
I would happily go out for dinner with him!!! Only in my dreams, I know, I know:(
I wonder how long will he stay in USA. Does he still has some work there? Anyone knows?
@jmm4832
sorry my sarcasm didn't translate very well :) I also noticed that Rob always takes the paparazzi hit whenever he is out with anybody.
...always the gentleman :)
Yeah, he's definitely the paparazzi bait. He most likely didn't eat dinner by himself, so whoever he had dinner with left another way so as to not be photographed.
I wonder how long he's staying in NY.
me 2 cuz i live here lol
jmm4832 I think they'd definitely have taken a picture of Kristen if she was there. I don't think she's able to teleport herself into the restaurant so she wouldn't have to walk through that huge crowd of paparazzi. *Imagines how Kristen teleports herself into the restaurant* It would be really funny though xD Maybe they DID take pictures and they're just not in this post. It's about Rob and not Kristen, right? :)
Perhaps Kristen when out the back since they knew the Paps would be waiting for them... Remember he said they had to sneak around to avoid the photographs. Or... (you fill in the blanks...) just say'in...
meant to add - After the maelstrom of New Moon junket photos, I didn't expect to still see new photos of Rob... We've been spoiled... :-)
I think they probably were together cause there has been no report on her goin back to L.A either, i think they are both probably goin to hang around NYC cause is less Pap friendly than L.A and it seems like is easier for them to hide.
They need peace and rest after all the New Moon press tour craziness and they probably will get more of that in NYC than in LA.
what???he'll be back at England???does anybody know??Although i must admit that he need some rest....Love you Robert
Well, I remember him saying in one of the NM promotion interview that he will spend Christmas at home, but I don't know what about now, I guess he will stay in USA until then
A POW/MIA shirt? Is this new? Is Rob getting political?
il n'y a aucunes preuves que Kristen était là! -_-'
Am a little surprised he didn't go back to LA to spend time with the family. Don't imagine they came all the way from England just to stay one day to see Ellen! Perhaps they'll all be reunited out west for some Thanksgiving celebrations... the Pattinson clan certainly has a great deal to be grateful for this year, as do we. Thank you Rob: the heart, soul and driving force behind the New Moon love tsunami.
Ah, the hobolicious one! Love him.
Moonbeam: unless it's a personal statement from someone feeling like he's a POW and would rather be MIA!
Rob supposed being in LA with Kristen last weekend at the AMAS,at least at the gift suite,according with a tweet from a guy,that i don't remember his name.So,as we all see,it's a lie.
Then,Rob is supposed being for dinner with Kristen.ALWAYS with her.BUT,there are never pics of them,just Rob.Sometimes i think that the gossip blogs and mags just add Kristen's name to stir the pot.
And my evil mind sometimes think:what if both R/K have secret relationships with other people,but the paps only photo them,because they're so sure that they're together?Don't bash me.It's just a thought.
I am sometimes really surprised that some Americans seem not to know meaning of their own holidays. They should know that Thanksgiving is not celebrating in Europe, Asia, Australia.. I don´t want to be mean, just a thought.
Kristen was inside the eatery that Robert ate at on Friday night, yet only he was papped that night as well, even though he was actually eating with a big group.
This has been a pattern that paps and autograph seekers in Vancouver have pointed out before--that Robert often goes out a front entrance, absorbs the pap attention, letting others in his party exit from a different location and not have to deal witth paps.
i think they're a couple!!i mean guys we saw the photos right?their hands was really close-it's the first time we saw this kind of photo-and the other one at kings of leon concert,it was a kiss!!!i really hope they're together
but we are really thankful for Rob here!!! :)
He looks a little lost without his huge entourage (Nick, Stephanie, Dean, that mean as hell Summit publicist). I guess he is officially off the clock. I wonder if Dean will continue to be his sidekick while he is not working. Hope he is having a relaxing time in NY.
LK, I've kind of wondered the same thing as well.........and I think its also odd that Kristen was there, but there isn't one picture of her? I mean, come on!
I agree Kate, love the beanie!
No bodyguard Rob? Glad he's relaxing now and just bring rob
Um..I think Rob's family also came to see a certain movie open, not just Ellen. lol They are still out in LA?
Devi, Jamie, LK-the other day, when all the media reported rob being out and about alone in NY (with friends), you could clearly see, on pictures here, on this site, kristen's manager/PA assistant. and there was no kstew in the pictures. so...unless he and kstew's manager/PA/something are best buddies or secret lovers, she was there...and nobody mentioned it.
Last Friday they had pics of Rob eating out, and you could see Kristen's agent in a couple of the pics next to him coming out of the restaurant. But we didnt get any pics of Kristen coming out. So its obvious she is there.
I honestly do believe that Rob is serving as a decoy. I bet Rob's friends were there with them too.
ok, i just realized my mistake: just PA, as it already means "personal assistant". sorry, haven't slept whole night, and english isn't my maternal language. ;)
I don't see Kristen's manager here.So,i say that maybe she wasn't there.What if that guy(i think he's lady's gaga director), who tweeted that he saw Kristen at LA was right,but she was with some other guy and he thought that she was with RPattz?
i thought that the robsten was something like official between the twifans right?if they were not together for one dinner big deal!!!
I'm not sure why people feel compelled to shoot down the idea that Kristen has dinner with him. I'm not a shipper and don't have strong feelings one way or the other, but I have to ask, why does it matter? Friends have dinner, right? I get it, there are no pics, but as I said earlier, he obviously had dinner with someone, who is no where to be seen in the pics or account. It is possible to get around the paps. They traveled all over the world recently and weren't papped at every airport, etc. Only some. They said it themselves, there are ways. Maybe they didn't have dinner, who knows. I'm just confused as to why it's so important to some to believe they didn't.
and applaud to Debi, as i totally agree with her. i think they are together, but that really isn't my bussines. i'm just confused why people jump on possibility of her being somewhere with him-if you don't believe they're together, why does it bother you so much?? why not worry over the fact he is papped yet again??
sorry, debbi ;)
He didn't eat alone--yet he's walking out the FRONT ENTRANCE alone. No star as big as him uses front entrances unless they want to be papped. The fact that a) he used the front entrance to be papped on purpose and b) he's coming out alone yet all the details from inside said he was with others sorta implies he's taking one for the team here folks. Rob is not a fame whore, and only fame whores rush into the front entrance lion's pap den to get photographed. There was a purpose for him walking out the front alone.
Looks like Rob knows his way around NYC already. Without his entourage he can easily travel alone incognito.
He can take the subway anonymously with his beanie. He'll have the laughs of his life if nobody recognizes him there. Come on you're an actor Rob. Wear a goatie and dark glasses and ppl might never bother to take a second look at you. I bet you'll still look good though. What the heck ! Just enjoy you time and i know you'll love NYC as much as i do.
Im with you Debbi. Im not a shipper, but i have to admit, at this point i do think they are together. But sometimes i feel like people are just as obsessed with proving that they are not together as shipper are with proving that they are.
I think at this point its pretty obvious that these two are very close. Who cares if that closeness is romantic or just platonic. At least they have eachother in this mayhem
Well said debbi :-). And hey if Rob does take the brunt of the paps that just shows he's a gentleman, also hasn't Kristen been ill..she had a cold during the last promo stuff she did. So maybe he is taking the brunt of the paps so she can get away unnoticed...either way whatever the reason is, if that is the case he's a gentleman and takes care of his friends, being them male or female. I love that idea!
Kristen alone is not a big deal pap wise, but Kristen beside Robert is the money shot. Divde and conquer the paps basically.
Notice what types of pictures we get every night--Robert coming out the front of a restaurant alone, looking bored and tired. Yet all the information from inside each restaurant on Friday and Sunday say he was having a grand ol' time inside with a group of people.
Robert is not dumb, he's sly. He knows how to use the paps if he needs to, and he knows how to take a picture to convey whatever he wants. You'd think from the shots in the last couple days he didn't have a friend in the world, he was on his last dime, and he was sad.
And yet the kid's movie is breaking box office records, he was jovial just minutes earlier, and was not alone inside.
Kid's smart-he's effing with the paps here people. lol
Rob is no dummy. Rob is papped here alone and still he's the topic of blogs everywhere. No need to question why he goes to and from places alone. I'm sure his dinner companion(s) appreciates not having had to go through this.
He looks so cute and shy in these pictures. Especially the last one! He makes one want to cuddle him.
And I don't know who came up with the phrase "hobolicious" lol, but I concur completely!
Ok, totally not trying to come off as crabby but...
Do I care if they are together? Not really. Do I think they should say either way? Yeah probably just to get the majority of people off their back (although I know that probably wouldnt work). I, like the rest of the world, have no idea if they are together or not. But, thats really not the topic of this discussion.
I was trying to get across that just because he had dinner with friends does not mean that it was with Kristen. Yeah, it could have been, but I found it odd that we didn't see one picture of her. Yes, now that you say he probably was the decoy, that makes sense.
I don't think you sound crabby, and this really isn't about Kristen to me.
I think it's more about the fact that Robert is much more saavy than people give him credit for.
Sure, he does that "little boy lost" schtick expertly, it makes every cougar in the nation want to feed him soup while molesting him. lol
But he's much more saavy in terms of how he deals with paps and public image, and it sorta illustrates more than anything that his life is weird. lol Going to eat becomes a process, with a strategy, with exit plans. lol His life is insane, and he's handling it like quite saavy like.
Well Kat, because I'm not feeling overly generous today I'll say that comment was needlessly snarky and plain stupid. Of course we (I) know THanksgiving is an American holiday. I also know that foreigners staying in the US tend to join in the spirit and celebrate it with their American friends. Some people enjoy feeling and sharing their gratitude, instead of spewing smarter-than-thou "lessons."
Maryann, les fans de Robsten voient des preuves partout qu'ils sont ensemble, c'est pareil pour les personnes qui ne pensent pas qu'ils sont ensemble!
Wouldn't it be fun if tomorrow or later on we had some pics of Kristen at LA?I think strange for her to be still in NY.Maybe then the discusion ended.
As for Rob,i certainly don't think that he's a fame whore to come out from the front door.Maybe he wants to show to everybody that he was alone there.Or he was with someone who didn't want to be papped,not necessarily Kristen.
I posted on an earlier blog, but I read someones tweet last night who works on the set of Eclipse and lives in NYC. She said that TomStu got an apt. in "The Village" in NYC. Maybe that's where Rob has been househunting. And he's having Tom get the place for him so as not to attract attention. She also said that L.A. is a paparazzi heaven, and stars prefer NYC because they're not as hounded. So perhaps Rob is staying in NYC to get settled in his new digs. I don't believe he and Kristen are together....Rob is still single or with someone else and this whole R/K thing is a cover up...just saying.
Oh, and BTW, yeah, he's freaking hot. Love the beanie and the jacket. Le sigh
ok, I am going to say something that is probably not going to be very popular, but... I think that Rob and Kristen should just come out - guns blazing, matching Ray-Bans on, and just let the frigging paps get their photos and be done with it. Photos of them together won't be so important anymore and will become mundane, thus giving them more freedom... When the mystery is gone, who's going to care anymore about the question if they're together or not... Just my 2 cents.
I love to see him in his usual all over again.... That is who he is, hobolicious!!! Love his upper lip... JUST ADORE HIS HOT SELF!!! And I love how theyre all playing with the PAPZ so well! Of course they won't be seen together whether they are or not... They have outsmart them and I LOVE IT!!
... or perhaps this is really just a huge publicity stunt to keep the focus on Summit's two biggest stars...?
You got it KittyKat! This is all it is....
And don't be surprised if you all hear that Rob has got a "place" in NYC. It makes sense....he's right in between L.A. and London.
If there's a side/back entrance to avoid paps, why wouldn't Rob use it too??
And they reported Kristen in a DRESS, a YELLOW dress, btw...outside of a promo event, the jeans/tshirt girl, who wouldn't even keep her dress on at the NM afterparty? I think not!
I kind of agree that they should just come out. Then there would no longer be a "money shot." Just my opinion - please dont bash me! :0)
Rob wouldn't use the side entrance if he was absorbing the pap attention.
Rob doing a publicity stunt for a movie that already gets 24/7 publicity via him as a constant media interest makes no sense. He's too big to have to showmance, that shizz is for TV stars. lol IF Rob was stuck schleping around doing publicity stunts at his status, then he needs to fire Nick asap cause he's horrible at having his back.
Rob's too big for showmances, and eating out with Kristen is not a confirmation of them bumping uglies. By their own account, they are thick as thieves close, ain't no big thing if they go out to dinner.
They really can't come out officially. They can indirectly confirm by being seeing out in public together. But they can't confirm directly.
They head a franchise that relies on their chemistry. If they date and it doesn't work out(and let's face it, they are young, so not working out is rule, not the exception), people are going to look at the franchise differently. If they confirm they are dating, they have to confirm they aren't anymore as well. Opens up a big can of worms.
Also, yes, Robert is too big a star to have to continue a PR stunt that has lasted a half of year now.
That's not how it works for someone in Robert's celebrity position. Robert's public image is affected by all this publicity, it cheapens his name in many ways to be a constant tabloid target. He does not need to be side by side with Jon Gosselin and Kim Kardashian weekly on gossip rags, he would not take that sort of bullet, just to ensure a good first week box office.
He has too much power and weight in the franchise at this point to have to do such things as pretend to date his costar for months on end and not be seen with anyone else. That's a major personal life intrusion.
One thing is for sure, the paps don't know where Rob is staying. They only get pictures of him when he's left somewhere, lol. Poor guy. Even if he was seen with Tom Sturridge a lot there would be people saying that he's having an affair with him. He can't go out to dinner without it being a big event so no wonder he leaves alone. Leave Rob alone!
@rpattz-zone - Vraiment!
I agree with many who wonder what happened w/ Robsten. Now that NM is out and doing well the publicity about them has stopped also. It makes sense in as much as "Remember Me" is already launching its promo. It would seem awkward for Rob/KS to be seen out and about while Rob/Emilie doing the promo tours. Just my thoughts.
I think I was misunderstood... What I meant was that perhaps 'they' were told to keep the mystery of their relationship going because of the franchise... If it wasn't such a big deal to 'someone'(Summit) then it wouldn't matter if they were photographed together... Or perhaps they (Robsten) are just trying to control what the paps photograph. I did not imply that Rob was whoring himself out for the benefit of Summit and the 'franchise'.... For the record - I think that they're a couple and are not 'together' because someone said they had to be or because someone told them they couldn't be...
The media attention hasn't stopped for robert and kristen--every blog is talking about them out last night and Friday night, as well as the night of the premiere.
I think the reality is they will never comment on whatever the nature is of their relationship, and they will leave it open to fans to interpret it how they want to. They aren't going to shove it down anyone's throats.
Rob is a huge paparazzi target, it's official now and I doubt anything will change that.
A confirmation would do nothing for him. It might satisfy our curiosity as fans, but the man has got to set some boundaries with the public. And the way he's banned the K-Stew question is a good start. He's been generous as it is in sharing his "inner-life" with the world.
In interviews he's talked about his visceral reaction to his admirers-- being moved to tears by them, wanting to please them but not knowing how...
The thing is he can't please them all. He can't make them all happy. But he can and should put what's best for him and his first.
I've read that Rob admires Jay-Z and even wandered around his old stomping grounds in Brooklyn this past summer. If that's true, I'm hoping he follows Jay's lead in protecting his private life. Jay doesn't give the public anything about his private life. He connects to his fans through his work. It's a good model for Rob to
adapt to his own life.
Rosa & Riley- I agree.
First of all, in NYC there are alley ways and back entrances. I'm positive that Kris, Tom, Marcus, and whoever else was with Rob went out the back way and down another street to get into their taxis. Rob knows that he is the main attraction for the paps. So he is the decoy to let the others get away. This is so the paps will get their shots and leave him alone for the rest of the night. If he didn't do it they would just hound him for the rest of the night.
And this whole thing with him and Kris being a PR stunt is ridiculous. All the interest in them being together started way back when they did those first MTV on set Twilight interviews. If you have seen them they totally looked like there was something going on and they were flirting with each other. No one at that time knew Kris had a boyfriend. Most importantly they were being themselves. Kris put her finger in his mouth o get food out of his teeth. If that doesn't show some type of closeness. Kris saying that Rob spent the night over her house and they hung out a lot pre-production.Wouldn't that raise an eyebrow a bit. But it was just there genuine comfort level with each other that was a red flag for most people.
That guy from MTV was the first media person who had contact with the cast. So there was no need for them to act the way they did. They were not playing up a relationship for media hype. They were very open with that guy and telling him about how they achieved their connection.So after the fans saw those interviews speculation began. And it got worse after Comic Con 08. Rob and Kris acted like there was something going on. The way they looked at each other and talked only to one another the whole time made it look subspecies. They were caught up in their own little bubble. Anyone with common sense would question if they were together after seeing the way they acted in those interviews and at CC 08.
Oh, PS: Rob looks adorbs, per the usual. He's got the look of a hunted animal, but...
kittykat, I absolutely agree with you!!!
They should give the paps their picture and the speculation would end!
Yves- That Jay Z thing is true. I read the actual interview with him. Rob was there in NYC last year with CH and her producer bf. The article had a picture of them all together sitting at a table in a restaurant. It's from the NEW YORK TIMES I believe. I thought I had the link, but I can't find it.
Robert's very defiant with the paps at this point though. They have treated him like crap, very aggressive and rude and don't let up, even when he gives them the picture. And they've been worse with Kristen to be honest. They'll egg her on, ask him about his gential size, if he's good in bed, they've trapped her in her car at nightwhere she can't move and she was taped crying.
Robert's quite adversarial with the paps at this point, and I think precedence shows what even when both of them play nice, it's nevery enough. The paps want more, because the fans want more.
what riley said!
OF COURSE they are not playing something up for pr, they so don´t need it. and OF COURSE they shouldn´t come out as a couple, that would only make people want more pictures of them together, asking them even more personal questions. it is not like you would not want to know anything else if they "came out"? they are doing exactely what is best for both of them and the franchise, just avoiding the question - and hopefully having a great friendship/love privately.
and btw, rob looks fantastic as always.
@Shani,
Hey there! I remember that article now! He said he walked thru Marcy Projects and no one bothered him. I lol'd when I read that. JayZ is just about the only celeb that would cause a stir in Marcy.
Actually, I've always thought that any celebrity looking for a place to disappear would do well to seek out the nearest east coast (U.S.) housing project. I lived in one when I was a little girl and while the accommodations are often, ahem, modest, you can trust that a) folks keep to their own counsel and don't bother you (unless you bother them), and b) the paparazzi would never think to look for a celeb there!
having lived in nyc for a few years and living in the west village i know that about 90% of restaurants have more than one exit, but i also know that the paparazzi know about those exists. IF kristen was there and they knew it, i think they would have done everything in their power to get a picture of her.
that being said-who cares if he was out with kristen or not? obviously he wasn't dining alone, whether they were together or not really doesn't matter, but what is obvious is that he is trying to protect those that are closest to him and not get them caught up in all the hype. could have been tom, marcus, kristen, his family, who knows...i think its really admirable that he chooses to take the brunt of it.
I think the logic for the most part is that Kristen's pap mug is unnecessary if it's not within 5 feet of Robert.
Robert's the money shot, so the paps will follow him, because a lone picture of Robert is still valuable.
Suppossedly there was a group of 8 there. The report goes that Robert and kristen had different drivers, and the group of others left in different cars. Robert went out the front while the rest of party left from different exits.
Now after I've commented on the pictures themselves, I must say that I agree with those who said that it seems like he is simply taking one for the team.
He knows that the papps are after him, so he goes out the front door so that all the rest of the people who were dining with him can leave without any harassment from the photographers.
maybe on their way in he saw the pap and said let us enjoy dinner in piece and I will give you some nice shots on the way out... so long as you don't tweet our bloody location!
Twitter from the restauran owner say that kristen was there and it also say what she ate. I would really love paz and twitter to leave this kids along.
Just leave them enjoy their freedom.
This a twit fromm the restaurant and they also sell the story to people and ok magazine.
MEGUNYC: New Moon stars dine at MEGU NY in TriBeca last night--Pattinson loved the artisanal beers and Stewart was loving the sashimi. #newmoon
about 1 hour ago from web
I find it disturbing that they would sell this to magazine.
@Pauleta, I wonder if that post is authentic. If he/she is a smart business owner, he wouldn't want his restaurant to be considered as a place lacking privacy or not celebrity friendly, especially in a place like NY.
There are a lot of fake twitter accounts out there, but then again, the owner could be looking for publicity if he/she really gave those details.
Jules- Trust that the owner did tweet that info. It gives him so much publicity. Because back in Vancouver Rob was sold out when he went to that Global restaurant. They told what he ate(Kobe meatballs) and drank(fruity alcoholic drink) there. The same place he went to for his birthday. Now that place has people coming there from all around the world to dine.
Yves- What's up!!! I never lived in one, but I know what you mean.Plus you know people around there have to mind their business for a reason.*wink*
Jules- I think it was an Indian restaurant too that told what Rob ate and drank. Rob is a money maker. He should do endorsements, but he doesn't want too.Like that old saying goes... Whatever he touches turns to gold.
C'est incroyable, Robert ne peut pas aller dans un restaurant seul, pour vous forcément il mangeait avec quelqu'un! là je vois Robert qui sort seul d'un restaurant, pas de preuves qu'il y avait quelqu'un, pourquoi vous spéculez?
C'est incroyable, Robert ne peut pas aller dans un restaurant seul, pour vous forcément il mangeait avec quelqu'un! là je vois Robert qui sort seul d'un restaurant, pas de preuves qu'il y avait quelqu'un, pourquoi vous spéculez?
He's taking the hit for the team, as it's a clear strategy in place for a while now.
Don't know how anyone can still think he should just "man up" and give us deets on his private life... it would NOT end the frenzy but just fan the flames and make people expect him to keep sharing things that are personal.
Rob DESERVES a private life, and once fans get that in their heads, and stop wanting to get inside the poor boy's pants (figuratively of course, because every hot blooded lady wants inside that jackpot literally!), then the pappz will back off and find another target.
I hate to see him like this: purposely making himself look boring and miserable. I think it's a ploy. Problem is, if you make yourself wear that mask all the time, you eventually start actually feeling the emotion.
The story is already published on the People website...
Shani, that's what I meant about the publicity.
"... or perhaps this is really just a huge publicity stunt to keep the focus on Summit's two biggest stars...?"
I started believing in Robsten when I saw the pics from Paris (the holding hands but not really pics), if they're just playing around that means I got punk'd, big time. That said, I don't understand why everytime Rob is seeing getting out alone of somewhere that means he's taking one for the team, come on, don't you want to be alone every once in a while? Because I do, I go out alone and not even my boyfriend gets an invitation, I just like to be by myself. I also want to say that it's very funny people still believe every single thing posted on the internet, especially on tweeter. That's just sad.
