This story makes me so happy - what a lucky (and awfully cute) family. Thank you Maria for sharing your Robert Pattinson story.
Maria(the lucky fan) says: Well....it all started with an email to the Oprah show. I just told her that the entire family were huge fans and if you came over and you were NOT a twilight fan then "YOUR NOT COMING". Where? We didn’t know. We just said your not coming to anything with us unless you were a fan. They apparently loved that line. So Sunday night they called and said that the show was totally booked but there might be a slight chance that we can pre tape something with skype. Now...she said a very slim chance. They were calling thousands of people. She asked me to send pics of my family. So in order to get their attention I thought I would be a great idea to take pictures as the “Cullen Family”. I waited all day on Monday to hear from them to see if we would be doing the skype thingy. Just when I started to give up it was around 10:30pm and they called. THE TWILIGHT PICTURES DID THE TRICK. They were so amazed on how my son Giuseppe looked so much like Edward. They told me to expect a skype kit to pre-tape a very short segment around 8pm on Tuesday night. They told me a hundred times “Sorry the show is full & we couldn’t give you tickets. So on Tuesday the skype kit came and I waited all day again for directions on how it was going to work. They called at 5pm and said we were going to do a practice run with skype and we would be live with oprah on the show in the morning. They told us do not dress up wear comfortable cloth because you will be moving furniture and it was just a test run. She actually told us to wear our pjs. At 8pm they called us on the skype cam to set everything up. We wasted about on hour just setting up the room. They kept telling me make sure all the blinds are close the camera is sensitive to light. (which now I know it’s because they didn’t want us to see him pull up.) They were asking random questions really just filling in time until I saw a camera crew through the small window on my front door and the people on skype heard me and said “go open the door” Well….that was it we all lost it. Screaming like a bunch of maniacs. Rosanna was crying, Giuseppe was frozen and everyone else was jumping a screaming. He stayed for about 10 minutes. Even though it felt like a week. And we just were all amazed that he was in our house. I told him me and Rosanna stalked him in NYC for the Remember Me premiere and he said “yeah I think I remember you” which was an obvious joke. I asked him is Kristen was here too and he said “well fine…I’ll just leave then”. Other things were said but I was in so much shock I cant remember. It is so weired. His lips were moving and I know he was talking but all I heard was wah wah wah. (kind of like snoopy and Charlie Brown). Then he told us we had tickets to the show. Again lots of screaming. He was great. So nice. Funny. And sooo tall. You was beautiful. I still cant believe it. So we went to the show and they had our names on our seats so we felt to privileged. Robert, Taylor, Kristen, & Dakota all sat and talked to oprah and then they showed the footage of him knocking on doors. He went to 3 homes in Naperville. We were the last ones. When he was leaving my house he said to the camera “I really want to stay and hang out at this house.” It was amazing. We all got a certificate to order Bella’s engagement ring from eclispe. The audience got to see the movie while he made his visit to our house. It is something we will never forget. Oprah & Robert was great but hearing my kids say “thanks for making this happen”……absolutely priceless!!!

So cute and so lucky. So jealous.
Rob is a sweetheart. His JFH is killing me, though.
This is the kind of thing fans dream about. What if Robert knocked on our front door?
So so adorable, I can't imagine how excited they must have been to open the door and see ROB!!!!! That was funny that she said he was only there for 10 minutes but it seemed like a week!!!! lol
He fits right in with that family picture.
Someone on another site mentioned they'd use that picture for their Christmas card!!!!! Good idea.
how awesome!!
Freakin' awesome!!! So cool. I would have panicked and relentlessly offered him food. I know. It's what I do.
Yay for that family! They sound like they deserved it!
Im too Jealous to comment lol
he looks so cute. Wow ... Oprah always manages a great surprise. My PJs would have come off if Rob showed up at my house...now i know why things like this never happen to me.
SOOOOOOOOO LUCKY!!! I truly don't know how I would have reacted. I probably would have been embarassed if I was wearing sweats and no make up! But man!!! How exciting! Good for them!
aww. what a cute story, although it makes me really sad.
my dream (and pretty much a bunch of other girls too) is for rob knocking on my door some day and this family and the other two families had that. that just makes me jealous coz i sometimes think its impossible that robert pattinson is gonna come knocking on your door.
still, its a really cute story and these fan stories are all so cute. wish i lived in USA so that i could at least watch oprah.. :(
is it me or dos rob look really blonde on the photos? gotta love him anyway <3
Awww :')
That's the sweetest thing, geez.
I love how she didn't capitalize Oprah in one sentence, but managed to capitalize the casts' name's xD. Just a little accident, but it's still cute!
OMG! What a lucky bunch of people!
Why not me?
What can I do to deserve this kind of luck?
I love you Oprah,I'll be your slave for all my life but please, just pleeeease send Rob to my house! I beg you!
@losgonzalez4 - we'll have it up for you view here as soon as we possibly can...
so cute, Rob is always nice with his fans. I love him so much...
Rob is just incredible all around. Can you imagine him in your home? With all the commotion that follows him everywhere and he was willing to do this? What a sweetheart!
Omg seriously?! So lucky! :( I live an hour away from Chicago n couldn't even go down there to see him! This is not fair.
I can't imagine that happening to me! All I can say is, lucky basterds!! Lol jkk! But yeah, I would um like LOVE to win that.
Oh My God!!!! I am soooo jealous but sooooo happy for the family. If he paid me a visit, I would have screamed so loud or I would have been speechless. HE is just soooo wonderfully AWESOME :-)
That's great, what an amazing surprise! I like where she said that Rob was talking but it just sounded like "wah wah wah" from Charlie Brown. I can totally imagine how hard it would be to concentrate under those circumstances.
...Wow what a cute story! i'm soo happy for the family! Filtm
This is such a great little story and says a lot about how he must miss the ease of a family setting... if he said, even as a joke, that he'd like to stay. Living in hotels and running back and forth through the airports gets old fast. He's welcome anytime at my house, right here in sunny California.
this is like a dream come true!!!!!
When will it be me?
:(
What a cute story :)
Rob and the cast are always so incredibly sweet and nice to the fans, he amazes me every time
WOWWWW!, Rob is really a nice guy, so handsome so famous, yet so humble...that's why i really really like him, he was just like us...
Good morning
What luck for this family. Everyone would be happy if something like this happens. But I do not know if I find this so good for Rob. He works so much and still always flying around everywhere. People see and soon find him anywhere because of Twitter. Must they now send him into the houses. I do not know. Sorry. I think it's not so great when famous people will be send around like puppets.
But Rob is always so nice and friendly with his fans. Love him more and more and I hope he stays that way.
There is no business like show business.
Hi there Rob's hair. Long time no see. Looking good.
Can you just imagine it happening to you? The door bell goes, you open the door, and there stands Rob Pattinson????
What would you say?
Reckon I'd try to act really casual and say "Oh hi Rob, good to see you... come in and have a cuppa".
In reality I think I'd probably burst into tears and then have a heart attack. Still, I'd die a happy woman!
Maria, Giuseppe, Rosanna: seems a family with Italian origins... if so, double happiness for the divine present they got...and double envy! If not, the same anyway!
Do I have to emigrate to US for getting such a chance? Ready, now! Well, my sister-in-low is going to live “near” LA for the next two years and I remember Rob once told it could be his next home (“maybe” he answered to Ellen DG’s question)...
No need at all for Oprah’s or who else cameras, he could just ring my doorbell shouting me to clean the filth my dog left in his garden during its wanderings and I would be in seventh heaven LOL!
Apart from joking, he’s always so cute and natural with his fans. Adorable!
why do i love this so much??? that would be impossible in my family. My father hates twilight, i hate TV and my mom is absolutely ignorant with computer. i mean, a few days ago she surfed the web for the first time in her life, and she's 51! ajajaj she couldn't move the mouse and she created a hotmail for first time too.
This was the moment:
Me: there you have to put your address (i meant, her new e-mail address)
Mom: ok
*2 minuts later, i went back to my bedroom*
Me: what the fuck are you writting?
Mom: my address
Me: you don't have to put our home address! you have to invent your e-mail address!!!!!!!
ajajaja she was writting our mailing address!!! ajajajaja poor mom...
i want to be on Oprah n meet rob!
So did they serve him hot pockets and heinekens, that's what I really want to know! :-)
Alas, yesterday was my birthday and I used to live in Naperville. It would have been a phenomonal birthday present.......
Aww. So cute. Lucky, lucky girl and could you love Rob any more??? He is the consummate sweetheart. What an awesome opportunity for this family. I'm jealous. I admit it. But still what a sweet story. Maybe I don't hate Oprah quite as much.
That is so fricking awesome. Rob is such a sweetie for doing that! I can't wait to watch the show next week!
oohh my god I would love to be in that house thats one of the things that makes me love him so much he is a real one in a million
