We announced yesterday that word on the street was Robert Pattinson was going to be the new face for Dior mens fragrance. Now we've got even more great info!
Grazia has an update about DiorRob:
We've just heard from a reliable source that Robert is shooting the Dior campaign in London any day now (eyes peeled, ladies!). We also know it’s set to be a Moulin Rouge-style shoot in black and white. Appaz, Rob had no less than three offers on the table but chose Dior because it’s ‘classic and timeless’. Stay tuned as we bring you more details as they arrive...GAH! Moulin-Rouge, black and white?? And no less than 3 offers on the table? We can believe that. Rob is a wanted man and rightly so.
Grazia said on their twitter that Rob is heading to London this week to shoot but I'm not sure how accurate that is with press junket activities happening for Rob at the end of the week then TV interviews next week. We'll see. Point is what he will be shooting. This is going to be goooooood ladies....
Here is Jude Law's ad for Dior Homme to get your imagination flying.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 240 Newer› Newest»Can't wait to see the results...k
Oh my oh my oh my I was getting all hot and bothered watching that, thinking about Rob doing something similar, no words :)
i`m soooooo freaking excited!!!! pretty sure it will be GORGEOUS....very tasteful and classy....to be honest, i`d rather he does all this Dior stuff than the promotion, cause i`m soooooo ready for his moving on...pretty sure he`s as well!!!! love this JD commercial, but pretty sure Rob`s will be 10000000000 times better....cause......cause come on, it`s Rob))))
me too! i think this suits jude law perfectly so lets hope they pay the same attention to robs personality :) fun, intelligent, sexy. oh and i so hope if they do an add robs voice is featured as much as judes was, ohhhhhh my.
any ideas what moulin rouge might mean for a man?
Its gonna be HOT.......black and white - Mouline Rouge........cant wait to see this ;)
Moulin Rouge...black n white???? Am I going to hyperventilate, have to catch my breath when i see these????? I believe so!!!
I would guess he will go back to London after the German premiere. He won't have time while he's there for the UK premiere, but after Berlin, he's free, as far as we know anyway. I'm excited about this, and so proud of him!
Hmmm, I'm now supremely interested in knowing who he turned down. If it was Gucci, I might have to cry just a bit. LOL! I have to figure that the shoot will coincide with the UK BD2 premiere. Jesus, black and white and Moulin Rouge-esque??? Yep, a slow sweet death.
If he is just the face of the fragrance, couldn't he still represent Gucci clothes?
OMG ... black and white ... Rob in ... well it doesn't matter what the hell he wears, does it? Black and White ... Ebony and Ivory ... grand piano ... Rob and a piano ... I swear this ad might do me in ladies.
If I stop posting after it comes out ... know I died with a smile on my face and my tongue stuck to a magazine page! :P LOL
LUV YA ROB ;D
I hope it's true!
Didn't understand your question, Moulin Rouge is red windmill, is that what you meant? There was another perfume ad with Nicole Kidman that I loved, and I really, really hope this is in a similar vein. Kiera Knightly is in another really good perfume ad.
LOL I wonder how many would be left here still alive !!!!
only the strong survive Lyn ... I don't know how much fight I have left in me anymore :P lol
oh that would be the perfect add Rob playing the piano taking place in the 30's or 40's and it is in nite club and the singer could be Billie Holiday singing(either computer generated or a look alike) the song would be The Very Thought Of You oooohhooo that would so cool!
That's a fragrance ad? It's a full length feature film directed by Guy Ritchie for G-d's sake. I haven't seen it before - it's the longest ad for a fragrance - I guess they showed different segments of it when it was running. Well, I have reservations about the whole actor/celeb fragrance ads thing but I guess the're all doing it so why not Rob and it keeps his profile up while he is away for so long on his several projects. Having said all that - W.O.W. Rob will smooulderrrr big time in something like this - eat your heart out Christian Grey and 50 Shades!!!!
It doesn't matter how many times I hear it... "you know who I am" just gets me LOL Love a little bit of Jude. It fits him perfectly.
They have got to do something that fits Rob just as well!!!!!
Please tell me he'll be wandering around London on Thursday - not likely but a girl can dream that he'll be in the same place at the same time :-)
Or the TV screen Haha...
Oh we have to keep up the fight........don't want to give up yet ;)
OMG NOOOOO.... this has to be a still shot!! tv spot??? I'm a goner FOR SURE!! lol
this is true ... too many movies left to watch. Not to mention I want to be wiping tears away as I listen to Rob give his acceptance speech for his Oscar someday. Can't miss THAT! :)
Wouldn't miss that for ANYTHING !!!
LOL I just put moulin rouge in youtube and didn't get very far....all I kept seeing was "elephant love"......we all know that Rob loved that elephant...sorry but it was just so funny to see.
There's a few piano pieces on there too.....mmmmmmm I wonder....
Moulin Rouge type shoot ....en blanc et noir ...this has got to be something decadent and sexy, old moviestar style perhaps in a French setting ?
Oh lala ! Now there is only the wait left, and I cannot wait to hear about and see this !
I was thinking something musical. Several people have mentioned him playing piano, so who knows. Def something to look forward to :)
Keep an eye out Maria - you neverknow - he could be breathing the same air!....lol
I love Rob in black and white (see Avi). Just think, if Dior get their act together, he might be all over our tele's at Christmas - happy days ahead :))
Piano fits in fine.....;-)
Yeah right....highly unlikey!! Seriously though even if there were a chance I would have to firmly tell myself that he wouldn't be there....I can't spend the day second-guessing every tall slim man in sight lol
The last time I was in Leicester Square, to see Cosmopolis, the following day they said he had been in London.....so glad I didn't know ;-)
Just imagine - Christmas lunch over - wine in hand, ever so slightly p-ssed, and watching smouldering Rob with all the Moulin Rouge dancers and all in sophisticated black and white. Leave you with that thought lol...
I said before and i'll say it again: SWEET MOTHER OF MOSES, I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THIS!!!! bring it on!
hey there! me too friend, me too!
Mon Dieu !!
I can't wait to see this RobDior campaing ...
I love the Jude Law one - I think I already said it... very sexy. But I'm convinced Rob's one will be smouldering... I can anticipate some French CanCan and frilly skirts... Nice ;o)
I'm kind of drooling right now !
Sounds like the perfect day !
I do not think I will live through these ads...I will die from the hotness!!!
Yes, Nicole Kidman's ad was very Moulin Rouge-esque. That's what I'm thinking as well! GAH.
Soo near and yet so far. Can you imagine how w efelt when we heard Rob had been just down the road in Arundel at KS press junket!! DH and I nearly went there that day and didn't for some reason - Rob had been spotted out jogging with KS so they said. aarrgghhh....
Yes. They'll run a moive ad as well as magazine and poster ads. Brace yourself. lol...
Oh not good!!!
The thing is had you seen him jogging would you automatically have known it was him? If people aren't seen in the right context sometimes you don't 'see' them.
:)) exactly...
My goodness. Rob+London+Dior+black and white shoot+Moulin Rouge style+'classic and timeless' = a very lethal combo to date. And the product is not even created yet. Fudge brownies. Kill me now. LOL
Go Rob! ;D
Can't wait he's going to be everywhere :)
You're right of course - I would probably think 'nah' - but - he was with K so that may have been the thing to clinch it Oh it never would have happened but hey - bit of dreaming is good..sighh
I had a thought..........not just the one lol.........wouldn't it be lovely if you could hear somebody singing to the piano but not see who it was until the camera panned round and Rob was sitting at the piano.........phew..........just a dream ;D
Moulin Rouge style? Does that mean he's going to have a bunch of half naked women dancing around him?
I have to think that Rob is making some nice change for this little ad that has brought on so much flack! Good for Rob !! Not that he needs it, but he damn well deserves it ;D
Il est tres beau, oui? (couldn't resist, sorry!) Rob's will most assuredly be smouldering -- drool rags all around!
Love the tags Tink : "it's gonna be good, Oh So Sexy, Rob is SO beautiful, Rob is so hot., Rob is so sexy, Rob is so talented"...
I can only agree with everything you say !
Oh yess.:))
Aside from being excited for him for having financial options for projects that he wishes to do, and for having professional photos in ads to perhaps offset the whining demand for pappz, I am so fascinated, thrilled, and grateful to see this whole process unfold, to have seen Rob from Goblet of Fire onward, and watch him grapple with being overwhelmed, balance himself, learn and grow. I look forward to his continued growth, success, and flourishing. May he go from strength to strength.
I think you are right though.....seeing both together would have made the difference. Oh well....another day maybe......
How close are you to Arundel? How close were they to you the whole time?? ;-)
There will be mixed views about it - I have some reservations myself but we can trust Rob to know what he is doing so enjoy!!
Hey guys. I think you may recognize me, I'm the die hard HP fan that went by the name HPRonfan. I said I wouldn't be coming here since I haven't been feeling robsessed. Yeah, I still stand by what I said, I won't be coming back again. I just came to say this one thing and since this is the only Rob site where fans put themselves out there and are totally proud of being his fan, I thought I should post this here.
Well, I saw Cosmopolis, finally. You guys know that I am quite rational and unbiased about Rob, I'm not his biggest fan and I say, he was GOOD. I do see a bright career if thats how he's going to act. The movie, in general, was slow paced, I had to check the time sometimes, but as Cronenberg said, Rob made it watchable, he totally nailed that part. Seriously, good acting. I liked him in the scene with Samantha Morton and of course the one with Paul Giamatti, he was very convincing. An overall good performance.
And yeah, he looked great at the LACMA event and he's doing Dior endorsements and all! Very unexpected, but hey, he's going to make money, loads of it, so yeah, thats how you survive in Hollywood, make hay while the sun shines. People have been quite cynical about him signing on as the face of Dior, but I never had a problem with celebs that endorse brands, I mean, I love Emma Watson so much, and she does Burberry. Its cool. Btw, I never had a problem with Kristen doing Balenciaga either :)
So, bye...again, maybe I'll come here whenever I watch a good movie of his, as long as I am interested in him. Not Robsessed, but yeah, I am a very simple fan..still
By the way, Is the storm dying down yet? *prays for it to calm down*:)
Thank god there is a Mary and a Maria for minute there I thought you were talking to yourself!
Nice! I was wondering if Rob was ever going to make it back to England aside from the Breaking Dawn Premiere. I know I would love to go back!
Anyway, Can't wait to see the finished product!
I don't get it. Dior is French. Moulin Rouge is French. LVMH that owns Dior is French. But they're shooting in London? I guess authenticity is not a consideration here.
I respect that.:)
I literally giggled upon reading this,bwen! :)
Rob, you are full of surprises! I believe in you and I believe that you know what are you doing. Smart move. I can't wait to see the effect of Rob&Dior's cooperation. It will be stunning, I bet.
No wind, but we had a lot of rain again today. My son just called to tell me that a tree outside the building here is totally uprooted and it crushed a car. The water is still in a lot of places; according to the news the subways will be down for another 4-5 days, and many subway tunnels were flooded and battery tunnel was totally flooded like a raging river.
Think yourself lucky I changed my avi....it was almost the same....you would be throwing every drop of alcohol in the house down the sink...along with everybody else on here LOL
Just for the record - I DO talk to myself - I'm the only one that understands what I say ;p
As far as I'm aware I haven't done it on here though !!
Yeah, companies have been dangling millions in front of him for years to sign on. As for shooting this week? Hmmm...I dunno 'bout that. He's in the middle of a huge publicity junket here in the states for the next two weeks. But then he'll be in Europe for the premieres and after that, his schedule should be cleared thru the holidays. Don't want to rush this. Want to get it just right.
Rob isn't French either but I won't let that bother me :P lol
Small question...has Dior actually announced he's the new face of Homme? Perhaps it might be prudent to wait for confirmation before scheduling his photoshoots...lol
I wondered about that, too.... I had vision of it being very sophisticated, great suit, slicked back hair, moody gazes, pouting, stylish women draped around him? Maybe a little bit Fifty-ish?
But Rob has the promo.He can't be at London and LA .
Giggling - I can just imagine you trying to act cool, calm and collected under those circumstances. Looking forward to seeing Bel Ami again tomorrow too! LOL - can we be cool, calm and collected then? and stuff the can can dancers, focus on Rob......
okayyyyy ... when you say pissed ... to an American that means angry. In the UK does it mean intoxicated? lol
sorry I'm such a newb here :P
You know I seriously thought about going to London next week 'just in case'. Then I got real - huge big city, wouldn't have a cat in hell's chance of finding him, even if I did get the correct day. How would I explain to friends - do you want to go to London No not shopping, not galleries or museums, just randomly walking......
Well...
I don't believe there's been any official confirmation from his camp but this began being picked up by legitimate news outlets across the world yesterday and if there was nothing to it, you'd think it would have been debunked by now. During the "scandal" when the rumours were flying that he was so distraught that he wouldn't be doing any promo for Cosmopolis, that was shot down immediately with Nick issuing a statement that he would indeed be meeting his professional obligations.
I was thinking that there might be some kind of 'unveiling' of sorts. An official press conference with Rob and Dior in attendence and that they'd do this in Europe after he finishes with the premieres. But with it getting out, that might now be redundant. I just don't know.
Well I just can't wait for this! Gorgeous sexy Rob in an arty black and white advert... bring it on. My friend and I have been trying to hatch up a scheme where we can get hold of a couple of the Dior posters up in the shops... ideas anyone?!?
It may have a French theme but possibly the director they are using prefers to work in London? Anyway, it is still speculation - I haven't seen a Dior announcement yet so even the Moulin Rouge thing might be just gossip?
True, the company is French, but the product is global. They can shoot these ads and commercials anywhere in the world and it's still Dior.
Yep it means intoxicated or simply........... drunk lol :)
LOL ... now DRUNK, I know! :P
I suppose you could be pissed in your sense too, depends on your family lol
Your comments are welcome and I am glad you enjoyed Cosmopolis - believe me it is 100% better the second time around. I read the book before seeing the film so knew what was coming, but you appreciate how good the film is when you see it again. The more I think about Rob signing himself up to Dior, I am coming to the conclusion that it is his way of walking away from the teenage persona he has. This campaign will show him as a mature man, which is what he is now. I hope you come and visit again soon - maybe when his next film is released. See you next year then ?
Just plain theft !
Surely Grazia have the timing wrong...Don't know how these things work nik but I would think that apart from shooting another movie right now,he'd be obliged to finish his scheduled appearances in LA,can't see Summit letting their main man go off in the middle of promo's and I just read this in The Inquisitor,
*With Kristen Stewart as the current face of Balenciaga fragrance and now Dior for her beau, it will be a seriously stylish couple walking the red carpet at the upcoming Breaking Dawn — Part 2 premieres*
LOL ... I suppose so. But I'm never pissed WHILE I'm drunk ... I'm a happy drunk ... a chatty drunk ... bad combination those three! :P
Lol with ya Jennifer...
iffy beat me to it .. swipe those posters off the wall! that or become besties with the store manager and have her save them for you ... may be a while before you get them though ... hey we could just all start emailing Dior when these come out and request one ... supply and demand ...right? ;D
OMG, I can hardly breathe just thinking about it!! It's going to be HOT!!!
Good comment Aishwarya...
yeah, I was gonna say I wouldn't hold that against him but then that led to other, dirty, illicit thoughts and so I went with bother...uno...bother? lol get it? sorry...long day :P
Sounds good to me lol. My daughter asked me a week or so ago to go up this Thursday, I agreed but said I'm not spending the day inside.....maybe something was telling me something lol......No, a pipedream ...he would need to be on that plane today!!! and then all of what you have just said applies plus the fact that he needs to be back again!
Hopefully not...
I'm at my parents home in Brooklyn and the ways in which I would get to the city are the battery tunnel, or the b,q,f, 4 and 5 trains are all shut down for the next few days and yet my boss called me to tell me i have to be at work tomorrow. Apparently I have to leaner how to teleport tonight. Hope there wasn't any damage by you. My street was spared, but I was blocked in by 4ft of water on each avenue and could't leave if i tried
Hopefully I won't be too pissed to appreciate Rob's commercials or I will be seriously pissed !! (This is really confusing our US cousins). Maybe we should use other words to describe being in a drunken state like blotto, three sheets to the wind, legless, rat-arsed, smashed, wrecked, tipsy (for grandma), or any others !! Cheers !
Lol Wendy
me too haha !!
Maybe they're going back to the Burberry offer and the underwear offer...
*sends out inhalers* :D
If I saw that poster or add in MACY*S I would snatch that man up in a second LOL!
Well all of the above are pretty good but rat-arsed is quite a popular phrase around here lol
He's already committed to the promo's,I'm sure the timing for this shoot will be after Berlin.I don't think Dior would expect him to stop in the middle of his work schedule but I always stand to be corrected.
Thank you! :D
I am in Midwood, Flatbush near the Q. Thank G-d, the religious institution where I have my main job was closed yesterday and today and will be tomorrow. After that I do not know what will be, as they say the trains will not be up and running for a while, and I don't have my broomstick ready. I cancelled my private clients for the next few days. I have enough food to last a bit and do not plan on going out.
Trees are down. I am grateful to be safe and to have power, but do worry for others. My son who lives around the corner has power, but the rest of the NY relatives and friends in NJ and NY do not. It will be a while.
:-D
LMAO! I won't let it bother me either who cares he is GOREGOUS and he would be perfect :-}
LOL! Jen I was thinking the exact same thing ;-}
Hes being interviewed with Taylor and Kristen by Josh for MTV first on Thursday evening so cant see it happening just yet !!
that was very beautifully said and I love your review very nice I will pre-order it and pick it up a week after new years day coz it is not going to be out on New Years day every post office and all that will not be open for bussiness that day
As Guy Richie directed the Dior ad with Jude Law,maybe the director they have in mind for Rob's ad is currently in London and it fits his schedule to film in London. It will look like Paris so it doesn't really matter
Oops. Sorry you just said the same thing! I should read the other quotes before I jump in.
When I first saw Rob it was in the movie GOF(Goblet Of Fire) I have been an HP fan since the first book and when I saw him I thought wow he is a good looking guy but that was it NO impure thoughts just strictly paltonic because I have seen the cast since they were nine years old(Rob excluded of course) but when Twilight came out and I saw him walk across the cafeteria I was stunned and then it dawned on me(did not know his name at the time) OH MY GOD IT'S CEDRIC ha ha ha ha ha!! and I thought too myself what am I doing?! and well the rest is history xD
And if they decided to use some Muse Song in Rob's commercial too, then it would just be unbearably perfect...
OH NO! that is awfull! :(
Yes - UK it's under the influence of alcohol to varying degrees!!
boy your boss is(as I use the term sarcastically) is really sweet NOT! I would say okay genius how the hell are you going too get work huh?! unless the fool lives right next door the building! honestly hellooooooo?! what world does this fool live in I would love too see him try too get too work dumb ass! NYC is basically(from what I have seen) shut down! what part of that does'nt this fool understand?!
oh you made me giggle. sorry, i could have phrased better. i meant moulin rouge as in styling and fashion. i know the female would probably be interpreted as showgirl, corsets, feather headdresses etc like the original show and subsequent films but what for a man? early 20th century suits? i do know and like the nicole kidman ad, i think for chanel 5 without looking? they always show the really long one at christmas don't they? not quite as keen on the KK one but it is beautifully shot, thats another chanel one isn't it? mademoiselle? yes, be great and i'm sure they will be as classic as both of these :)
Oh yes of course! The can can in Bel Ami! Practice run for the ad then!! Lol...see you there!
Yea I'm in Mill Basin/Bergen Beach. My street was fine, but my friend uploaded pictures on Facebook just around the block from me and it's a river. So glad you are okay and who knew you were so close! Yeah so Kings Hwy is definitely closed then, huh? I am assuming the Flatbush 2, 5 lines as well. My office is closed today, but I'm trying to get in ouch with my boss because he lives in Hoboken which I am assuming is worse in terms of flooding than I am. My boss knows I fled to Brooklyn, but given where my parents live I don't exactly live in an easy and "metro" part of Brooklyn and he thinks I live 5 minute away instead of an hour and 15 lol.
I have food as well, and I still have my power (thank god), but I have a few family friends staying with us from seagate and gerritsen and there houses are gone! I can't believe how crazy it is. I'm 10 minutes from Breezy Point in Queens which apparently no longer exists. I'm in shock right now.
I'm glad so glad you are okay because I remember you saying you lived in Brooklyn and I was worried about you. Hoping for nothing but the best for you and your loved ones...and just about anyone who was affected by this.
When I saw him in GoF (I also have been a fan of the books and films since the first book came out) I htought--what a beautiful boy! And when I saw him in the cafeteria scene of Twilight, I thought--there's that beautiful boy again! But i was amazed how he had grown in skill--he was raw and unsure in GoF, but knew what he was doing in Twilight--and i was amazed at how he was able to transform his face as if it were putty to have such a different look, beyond what make-up and weird hairdo could do. I was impressed. And when I saw the clip of him freaking out at Comicon, and went back and saw clips of him from when he was doing GoF promos and premieres, I KNEW this was a special person and was intrigued to see how he would handle the sudden opening of the gates of heaven and hell at the same time with himself between them bridging the gap and the gape, and I was interested in seeing how much more he would grow in talent and skill and the ability to transform. I have not been disappointed, have only been impressed.
Randomly walking! Love that! Lol
10-15 minutes!!!!
Releasing him from or cutting back on promotional duties because of filming? Yeah, that they'll do cos that's movie business stuff. Kristen and Taylor had a much heavier schedule than Rob during Eclipse promotion because he was in the middle of filming WFE. Just as he and Taylor carried most of it last year for BD while she was filming SWATH. But to let him off of an already scheduled promotional tour (especially for the last hurrah of a multi-billion dollar enterprise) so that he can go off about his own business and personal gain? Uh...not very likely they would be so generous with that. And rightfully so as this is his job at the moment...selling the rest of this franchise and putting it to bed.
And yeah, with joining Kristen in a similar venture and with them having beaten back the wolves at their door (a slaughter by the global media, joined in by a viscious public court of opinion) and having emerged from it on their feet (and their arms around one another), they look to be stronger than ever and with them embarking on a new phase of their 'adult' careers, coupled with these prestigious endorsement deals, I'm thinking this does cement them as the new power couple in Hollwyood. Even more so than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. With Brad approaching 50 and Angie 40, they're not exactly 'fresh'. Whereas Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are just getting started. With their youth, their beauty, their talent and their success...they are dazzling. Who would have thought that just three months ago when the shit was flying (her career in tatters and him tumbling off the deep end), that they'd be here? My guess is because most of what was said about them was a pack of lies. They were always okay. They hit a bump, they dealt with it and they went on...to bigger and better. And their detractors are just gonna have to deal with it or take a hike. Or get to a doctor and get on some meds.
In Canada it means both it all depends on the context !
Miss me??
how about blitzed! LOL! or shit faced drunk LMAO!
Thanks, and wishes of nothing but the best for you and family and friends. And their houses are gone!!! O my Goodness! It IS crazy. Stay safe.
and I plan on getting the display poster *evil smirk* hee heee heee
OH that's just painful....even not going to Arundel he was so close!!!!
oh my god YES! that would be awesome!!!!
Oh oui - il est à tomber !! To die for ... So many things to look forward to with all the new roles and now this ... so exciting ;o)
sounds like my kind of place ;D
lol ... and ALWAYS ;D
There is limited bus service beginning in the next hour, but I still have no idea which busses to take and transfer to that would take me into manhattan and then who knows which bus lines are down because of flooding. I mean I may have to switch to 9 different lines. That's not okay. I just wish he would close at least until monday. There isn't flooding everywhere but it's pockets of areas that cut off and detour commute lines. what nutcase calls us into work tomorrow? It's impossible to get anywhere and all of lower manhattan is without power including my apartment building and my office! I'm supposed to teleport and find a hotspot to conduct business in Nebraska apparently. This is crazy, oh and not to mention that cell phones don't work because networks are keeping the lines open for emergency calls only. I'm not going to work and if he fires me then so be it. I was quitting soon anyway.
Perfect scene would be him on the piano surrounded by gorgeous cabaret dancers. Old French glamour:)
I hope they film it after BD2 promos so he can relax in London and hopefully visit friends and family.
Just grab 'em and run.
Or trade sexual favors?
Hey. This is Rob were talking about and is there a sacrifice too high? I think not.
I agree Lionsgate/Summit will squeeze every last nickel and dime out of them that they can.
I think the future holds a lot in store for this couple and I can't wait to see what they make of it.
Doctors and meds? I think you may be right ...it isn't going to be easy for some.
I wonder if they'd consider selling them? Probably not, Dior is far too swanky for that .... I'd really love one though
That's a great idea Jenn. Bombard them. Hey, marketing posters would be another source of revenue for them.
Someone suggested last night about emailing Dior and thanking them for this. I went to their official site and couldn't find an email click which is nothing new as I can barely find my own email click. Any instructions on how to do this anyone?
(are people getting tired of explaining to me how to do shit?)
As far as selling posters, I would agree...thus far. But they haven't met Rob Pattinson's fan yet. And if there was a big enough demand and they sold them for say...$29.95, that is another source of revenue. And a buck is a buck. Especially in these times. Who knows what they might do. But first step would be...ASKING for them!
God Stephanie it sounds awful...
I wish I could say more than just take care of yourself ... you and the rest of the ladies affected are in my prayers.
YES!!!
I can't even say how excited I am for this! His previous modelling shots were IMO a bit.... how should I put this.... well he has looked soooo much better since but this is a good move! I think it's going to be very classy and sophisticated but with bursting sexuality. And those eyes, cheekbones, lips and that jawline are definately going to honour Dior's classic sense of male beauty!
LOL.
They might not...but the store manager might! I know a fellow that works in Macy's ... know him pretty well ... I'm gonna call in a favor ;D
Using Rob Pattinson as the face of Dior Men's Cologne may require new marketing strategies never employed by Dior before in order to satisfy the new and ravenous costumers they will acquire.
LOL ... sorry, when you mentioned not finding your OWN email click ... my mind went THERE. as it so often does! :P
maybe if it's tweeted or twittered or twatted (whatever) enough, someone in corporate will get wind of it and sell it as
HIS idea and get a raise and we'll get to purchase these posters ... and every body will be happy!! ;D
I volunteer to be one of those ;-)
Oops. Sorry. This was in answer to BWEN (just below) and instead I responded to myself (and here I am telling others to get on meds)...
If I'd been one of those who have spent the last four years despising her, talking shit about her and with what happened thought that maybe he was finally rid of her only to discover that nope, man still loves her. That he walked thru the shitstorm with her and is even willing to take some of that shit onto himself because of what happened, I think I just might bail. I'd have to accept that they won and I lost. Yeah, I probably would move on. But unfortunately, I think some are gonna go on beating their tom toms and shaking their tamberines because they've been doing it for so long now that they don't know what else to do. To change their opinion would mean that they were wrong. And some people just cannot be wrong and that's sad cos that's a helluva cross to bear. To not be able to ever accept that sometimes were wrong. I know a couple of people like that and truthfully, they're quite miserable.
exceptional man needs exceptional treating
That Jude Law ad made no sense whatsoever. I hate that kind of goofy euro noir stuff. But it Robert is in it, I'm sure I will love whatever little film or photoshoot the cook up.
Can you imagine if they put up these giant ads in the department stores and we all start stealing them. It would be unpresidented, I am sure. They would not know what to do.
Me thinks they're about to get their eyes opened. When he shows up for any kind of promo for Fashion Week in Paris and/or NY and when he goes on location to shoot these commercials? Shall we place our bets now as to the kind of crowds that will show up to see him? If past is prologue...this is gonna be interesting.
they'd have to do like the cinemas had to do with movie posters ... put them in a case with a lock on it! I had a friend in high school that would steal movie posters all the time (not ME, I SWEAR!) and she never got caught, but when they started putting them in that case with a lock on it, her crime spree came to a screeching halt! LOL
They shoud hire you on their marketing team. They couldn't lose!
Yeah, I was thinking fresh is not a term I would eve ruse for Angelina Jolie, drinking blood, tattoos, making out with her brother, getting pregnant by a married man, and now, 7 kids later...not so fresh! LOL
Do you think a lot of the Kristen haters are young kids? That's what I keep thinking, because those of us who have lived a little, tend to understand that people make mistakes, or just that not everyone is going to love every movie star out there. There are many that just rub me the wrong way, but I don't say they are not talented and don't deserve to be happy in their personal lives. Speaking of actors I don't like...Brad Pitt's Chanel ad has been universally mocked as far as I can see. I hope Dior learns from that.
Stephanie and Solas, I wish all the best for you and all the others in that area! Stay safe <3
I was thinking the same thing! Why London? Just wait until dark and shoot in LA!
I hated that movie Moulin Rouge...but that was really stylized and wacked out by the director Baz Lurman. I don't know if the work the movie was based on is like that.
Sadly that's very true Nik...
But I think we can all agree that this young man is no ordinary young man...and like everything there is more than meets the eyes to what he has gone through. Meaning the truth that we''ll never be a party to.
Rob is an exceptionally fine man in my mind. He seems to be strong within himself, intelligent and determined despite all the crap he has lived through these past several months let alone years. Then couple all that with what appears to be a kind, compassionate and loving nature you have a one of a kind person.
What we have to accept as his fans is that HE knows what he wants and to hell with those people that will continue to beat their drums and be miserable it's their misfortune that they can't find happiness in his happiness.
I doubt it will be "any day now" because Rob has BD2 promo in the USA until almost November 12. And then he has Euro promo until the 16, and he is in London for one day only.
Grazzia is a tabloid, so not too reliable.
In Paris we will have posters up in the streets, on bus stops. We have some for Florabotanica at the moment.
But I think we are going to wait until the spring, because new perfumes/fragrances are usually out in early Autumn and in Spring/early Summer.
Aren't those photographers notoriously hyper about distractions on their shoots?
I guess they may find that shooting onto the streets of Paris or London may be a problem then!
Wow Christine that first question is loaded!!
Well Nik I have my opinion... I'll be interested in seeing what your is?
Okay since we are all "playing push me pull you" with Rob how about shooting in Quebec City, Montreal, Toronto or Victoria ;o)
I'm thinking the same thing too Vanessa. If we see something before the end of the year, I'll be stunned. Not that they couldn't start putting it together but that it will be spring at the earliest before we see something. You just don't throw these ad campaigns together slap dash. Well, not if you want them to be any good. How long ago was it that Kristen was signed to Ballenciaga and when did the ads begin? Just last month? Yeah, it takes awhile.
Hi Nik, I'm a fan from the Caribbean. One question I have is, can he still wear / sponsor Gucci? I love all his Gucci looks.
Aww. Thanks. I'll admit I've got a pretty good handle on this stuff. Well...you observe it up close for a life time and after a while, you start to pick up a clue.
Well they're gonna have to deal with it or shoot inside a studio and it would cost a fortune to recreate such settings or landmarks. But yeah, fashion photographers are unusally quite persnickety. But then, so are some film directors and thus far, they've coped with the distractions. I honestly thought that Cronenberg would have the streets cleared and yet, he seemed to embrace it. So...I dunno. We shall see.
lol!..Nik..you should have seen the fans tearing down all those large WFE posters at the London premiere...I managed to grab one of those large hardboard poster of gorgeous Jacob holding on to Marlena...so,my hubby and I had to travel by taxi (black London taxi) and by train to where we live in Essex.. with this poster...you should have seen the look we got from other passengers....especially the ladies..more like ..I want that! lol! ..and as you said "this is Rob we are talking about and there is no sacrifice too high!
Cronenberg clear Toronto streets that ain't happening there usually isn't not enough money in his budget to attempt that.
The opening scene for Cosmopolis was in front of Union Station on Front Street the transportation hub of commuters and one of the busiest sections of town, just a stones throw from the financial district believe me that was not going to happen.
Plus there is a certain kind of reverence for DC in Toronto and we are kind of weird in Canada that it seems to be standard practice for the people there to pretend to ignore the famous and film crews. Hell Mick Jagger and the Stones have always come to Toronto before any world tour in the past just to chill out because they could walk the streets of the city without being bothered. If there were crowds around any of David's sets I can almost guarantee you that they would have been quiet and respectful.
Just watched the vid...that was..very HOT...was trying to imagine Rob in JL's place....can't wait to see anything and everything on this campaign...never paid much attention to those ads....I will now! Very much looking forward to them.
Ask in the shops? As mad as it may seem, not everybody is a fan! I don't understand it myself but that apprarently is the case ;-)
If Rob is doing just a photo shoot and not a commercial. He could do that over a weekend. Do we even know if he is in LA now? Maybe, he is busy having pics snapped even as I write this. Summit would love the additional PR. They could link it in with BD2. If not perhaps, they will shoot it right after he finishes in Berlin on the 16th. I can hardly stand the wait. In about 2 weeks I will be sitting in a theater for the marathon. It didn't seem like November would ever get here. OMFG! it is less than 2 months til Yule. And then New Years and I will be able to cuddle up on the couch and watch Cosmopolis.
Maybe because Rob is English? Maybe they will link that fact somehow.
Nice to know you are ok.
Hmmm...
From a lot of the comments I've read over the years on different sites, yeah, I would say that were dealing with some kids here. And especially when this situation occured, you could see their idealistic views on personal relationships. And it's when were young that we are idealistic because we haven't lived long enough or experienced enough to understand that the world and the people who inhabit it are not painted in bold strokes of black and white. Good or bad. It's not until we get our teeth kicked in a few times, or that we do the kicking, that we begin to figure a few things out. That were not perfect and neither is anyone else. On the other hand...
The original hate group in this fandom, the nonstens, were not comprised primarily of young girls. There are women in that crowd who are old enough to be Kristen's mother that went mental in their hatred over her. And in my opinion, such behavior is deserving of some counciling. As adults, they're in too deep in such negative terms and it would probably be wise to step back and re-evalute their participation in the fandom because they're moving into emotionally unhealthy areas. So I think it's a mixed bag. In terms of what happened...
I think calmer heads have prevailed. Even those who lost their shit in the immediate aftermath have moved on. They just want him happy and if he wants her, even if they don't approve, they're gonna let it go. Those I think are the grownups of the group because that is more grownup behavior. But we've still got some stragglers hanging on. Mostly kids I suspect but some not so kids too. They hated her before, they hated her then, they hate her now and they'll hate her tomorrow. What threw me was how some turned on him because he chose to continue to love her and yes, my opinion is that this is coming from the predominately younger crowd. The death threats for instance. For the most part, I do believe that is kids. Same thing goes on in the Bieber fandom. Not that there aren't a few adult women who've come unhinged. They have. But I think they're in the vast minority. Overall, I think this is a strong and devoted fandom who treats them both respectfully when meeting them. But I also think they let loose while hidden behind their screens. I think many many have said horrible things about her in social networkings that they'd never say to her face. ESPECIALLY if he was anywhere in the vicinity.
Just my opinions. I don't know that they're true because I have no official data.
I can't even say how excited I am and hardly breathe just thinking about it!!! Any Muse song will be just perfect...because HE IS A MAN...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALGypc4K-Yo...

It was just over three years ago I discover this site through Amazon and while searching for Twilight stuff I happen on a poll about between Rob/Taylor/Edward/Jacob... and while I am not a fan of Taylor and feel that MR/SM and even Summit show preferential treatment to Taylor... I was absolutely in SHOCK at some of the things I read on the Internet...suffice to say I don't read anything but at this site now and even then I just skip some post...
That's ok - great minds think alike !!
You obviously went to the same Finishing School that I did !! Sorry for the delay in replying - just been down the pub (honestly) !
Jen, you really need a focus lol.....shame there is no voting for you to work on atm. ;p
email Dior and ask them about the posters ;-) or try their fb page
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AGREE
It does indeed mean intoxicated LOL
Pissed OFF means angry ;p
After the advert when the TV does its usual stint of repeat after repeat we could all put cosmopolis on ;-)
I think Rob & his team will work this out just fine when its going to happen as he is ultra busy with the promo,our in put I'd say will be drooling at
the pictures when robsessed will put them on the blog& on RPLife,its great news though.
I didn't mean sweeping the streets clean of all humanity. I meant, clearing away people who specifically showed up to look at Rob. And thing is, at that time, I was thinking about what happened the last time he filmed on the streets of a big city. Namely, New York during RM. That was not good. In fact it was so not good that after the film wrapped, he had to return to NY, not just fix a few lines of dialogue but to fix entire scenes because the murmuring of the crowd and the clicking of the papp's cameras had ruined the work. But yeah, I heard that the crowds that showed up in Toronto were quiet and respectful and like I said, that David embraced it.
LOL...Okay I get your point!
But Nik this is Canada were talking about ...that isn't going to happen, we are the quiet like the Aussies.
Well all except for me it would seem.
Hell when we were kicking ass in the 92 an 93 world series the team had to ask the fans to make noise!!
And David is a national treasure...you don't squeal when as national treasure is working his magic.
A celebrity can have more than one endorsement deal at a time. Like for instance, Nike sneakers and Crest toothpaste because they're not in competition with another. But I've never heard of a celebrity being the face of two fashion houses at the same time. They're both selling fashion whether it be perfume or clothes and I don't know how someone could sell Gucci suits and Dior perfume at the same time. Those two brands are in direct competition with one another with the same target audience and wouldn't that be seen as a conflict of interest? Like, you can't sell Coke and Pepsi at the same time. But I'm no expert in the field so don't quote me.
Yeah, ol' Baz is an aquired taste. When I heard they were shooting The Great Gatsby in 3-D I thought...huh? Fitzgerald in 3-D? Why would anyone want to do that? But then I thought, what do you know? It might be great. But then when the film got pushed back from it's Christmas Day release this year to sometime next summer (no date set), I wondered if something was wrong with the film, the studio got nervous and moved it out of the awards season arena. Cos this one has been talked up as a potential award winner since it was first announced and to move it from that prime release date...I dunno. Something's up. That's the buzz.
Big houses only put out new perfumes/fragrances in spring/early summer and in the autumn. They are the seasons for new perfumes/fragrances.
Great story!
Just going thru the comments and I wanted to say to STEPHANIE...
Don't you dare go into work. The city is vulnerable right now. Both from an infrastructure standpoint and unfortunately, from a human behavior standpoint. It's too damn risky and your boss is way out of line in asking this of you. Stay safe. There's always another job.
(and now I'll butt out, but that made me mad)
I wasn't that keen on MR, even though it had Ewan in. I'm sure the Dior advert will be nothing like that - it will be stylish, not brash.
Thanks Nikola. Sorry I had to rush to pick up the kids.
I'm just imagining Rob seeing Brad Pitt doing that godawful Chanel 5 ad and thinking......."hmmm, I think I can do better than that."
And I'm sure he WILL! The Jude Law one was not hot - to me - cause it wasn't Rob.
I'm not much into the Big Houses or expensive clothing advertisement so I wouldn't know those details. I was just commenting on the article Tink posted suggested Rob was going to be in London shooting any day. I was speculating at how that could be when Rob will be stateside Thursday, Friday and just about all of the next 2 weeks. Don't read Grazia, either!
I'm watching a special show on the devastation of the storm and still cannot comprehend how huge it was, especially in NYC. It is shocking.
great to hear from you Lallie! :)
Good comment, Lallie, about forgiveness and about Rob and Kristen.
However, thinking about forgiveness, I've come to some other conclusions.
I don't agree with #1, for example. You can forgive someone you will never see again, or even someone who is dead. Doing this helps you. It's important for you to let the other person go. I think of Tyler in RM, forgiving Michael, as one example of this.
Yeah, it's important that you think the person would not repeat said transgression (#2). One way to get you to believe it though is for the other person to make amends of some kind, if possible, to show how serious he or she is.
And #3? Well, if the transgression is out of character, then there's a better chance the person would not repeat it, and would learn from it and that's important.
But the professor has not mentioned the very first requirement (although she might assume it), which is that the other person, the 'transgressor' must ask for forgiveness. It means little if you forgive generously if the other person has not even acknowledged his wrong and indicated his desire to make amends. To me, forgiveness then would be a travesty.
I admit I get stuck with this requirement when it applies to dead people. Obviously they cannot ask. But in this case, to me, there would be different requirements, probably having to do with knowing the character of the dead person and thinking that they would have asked. It's complicated.
Bravo Lallie!!!
Honestly Lallie,
The news isn't even exaggerating in terms of devastation. I'm surprised they didn't comment on my neighborhood in Brooklyn. All of the beach communities and water communities were it especially hard in Brooklyn and Queens.
I'm so incredibly lucky. I didn't have any flooding nor did I lose my power, but the 2 streets on each side of me did and my block was literally an island all its own in terms of being surrounded by water. I was so naive. All day yesterday I just kept waiting for the power to go out and it never did so I thought it was just heavy winds and didn't make a big deal out of it. It wasn't until my friend and neighbor pulled me out of my house around 11 last night and showed me the 2.5-3 feet of river that was once a major avenue that it really hit me. Looking down the avenue into complete darkness and smelling gas and just burnt anything nearly made me collapse in tears knowing I have friends and family members trapped in their homes in utter darkness with no means of emergency rescue to help them or for them to know what is going on. I'm at my parents home and they were considered Zone B, but there is so much devastation here. My aunt and grandparents who live 6 streets away have 7 ft of water in their basement that breached their main floor. My friends house collapsed a few neighborhoods over and I have a few high school friends who live out in Rockaway and Breezy Point who literally lost their houses in a massive fire that destroyed about 100 homes--and this is just 10 minutes across the bridge from where I am now. I'm in complete shock right now and it finally really hit me within the last couple of hours. I have my family sleeping here and a few of my friends came here to shower and stuff. I also just found out that they believe a young couple drowned in their basement apartment a few streets from me, but I'm chalking it up to rumors for now because the news has been pretty accurate thus far in terms of reporting what is going on. I don't even know what to do. There is no bus route for me to get back into the city and the power is still out at my apartment building back home in manhattan and I have an elderly neighbor I'm desperately trying to check in on since she decided to stay even after a mandatory evacuation. It's just so horrible and this is just NYC. The jersey shore is a mess. Seaside heights and Atlantic city (apart from the casinos) were destroyed. Parts of CT and MA, NH are still without power. There are people without power who have no idea what is going on... I'm just so thankful and lucky that I somehow dodged this major bullet. I just wish I were able to help in some way... I feel like a chicken without its head right now. I'm just pacing trying to figure out my next move or to figure out how to help. Sorry for the rant. I just needed to vent.
Why not. He has said he loves working in Canada, probably because we're unobtrusive and respectful. However, I don't see Dior filming outside of Europe.
I admit to not reading the whole article, and it's sitting right here beside me, but my distinct impression is that its focus is about forgiving in a relationship, apparent in the professor's 3 rules. As for the other requirements of forgiveness, that indeed is very complicated. Just last night I was speaking to a good friend about her relationship with her father. She speaks to her father (who lives 1500 miles away) and admitted that she loves him, despite the damage and emotional upset he caused in her family. Her two sisters, on the other hand, (who live in the same state as him) have been estranged from him for several years now, refusing to speak to him. He has a great grandchild he doesn't even know about. One of her sisters is a Mormon. Their parents divorced but my friend has shared some happy family memories from her childhood which I'm sure her sisters share. So when he dies, how are they going to feel, I asked her. They won't care? Her father will never ask, but once he's dead, I think you are right, they have to decide if he would have and how guilty they are in not even trying to reach out to him when they still could. I'm glad that I don't have to ask those questions in my life, I think I made my peace with my parents before they passed.
