People Have WAY Too Much Money

LovePattz on Twitter sent me the link to a special handmade Edward Cullen doll on ebay. The doll is really beautiful (although it doesn't look like Rob) and all but the bid is at $590 right now and there are 2 days to go!!! It made me wonder why the bids were so high then I saw this bit at the end of the doll pics:

AUCTION IS FOR NUDE DOLL ONLY.

Perverts, lol. Oh it's just me? Nah! :))

More Rob on ET tonight?

According to ET Executive producer Linda Bell Blue:

Check out ET Online at midnight tonight for more with Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart and watch ET next Thursday! Enjoy!

Yesterday's promo:

Why is Rob so popular with the magazines?

I am assuming we are looking for an answer other than: Because his covers SELL. Let see what Life and Style told Mark Pasetsky's Cover Awards:

CoverAwards spoke exclusively to Life & Style’s editor in chief Dan Wakeford, who explained why Robert Pattinson has suddenly become the new ‘It” cover guy for the magazine:

“Robert Pattinson is a perfect mixture of obsession and mystery, which makes him a fantastic cover star,” says Wakeford.

“He’s bright, cool and handsome, yet doesn’t have the persona of a boy like other heartthrobs. With the Twilight books and movies so prevalent, Life & Style’s readers are obsessed by him and his character Edward and are addicted to every new piece of information they can get about him.”

What’s the really special part about Pattinson?

“And if that weren’t enough, who can resist an English accent?” asked Wakeford. (who also has an English accent!)

Life & Style Weekly released its fourth Life & Style Robert Pattinson cover this week!

This week (above) focused on Robert Pattinson’s messy love triangle.

Life & Style’s “Twilight Fight” cover featured Robert Pattinson’s professional drama!

Life & Style’s “Back On!” cover plays off the idea that readers believe Pattinson and Stewart are secretly dating

Life & Style’s “Twilight Romance” cover was the first cover in the celeb weekly space to feature the possible Pattinson/Stewart romance

Thou Shalt Not Stalk

Repeat after me: Thou Shalt Not Stalk.

Seriously people, if you say you "keep bumping into the cast" you are stalking them and we don't believe you are normal at ALL.

Veilsoflight left this in the comments section and it's too good to not post :)

There once was a hottie named Rob
Who felt overwhelmed by his job
He put up his hood
But it did him no good
So he went into hiding as 'Bob'

Robert Pattinson Under Siege In Canada
Security is stepped up after fans storm the New Moon set...

Robert Pattinson's heartthrob status is creating all manner of headaches during the shooting of Twilight sequel New Moon, it's claimed.
Security has been tightened after an influx of fans descended on the Canadian set in the hope of getting a glimpse of the British actor, who plays Edward in the vampire saga.

An insider said: "It's got to the point where security measures have had to be trebled to keep these people off the set."

So far attempts to shake off R-Patz's army of followers have failed.

The insider added to British newspaper The Sun: "At one point, a fake shoot was set up to throw these kids off the scent but they are surprisingly resourceful.

"Robert is having to come to terms with having his own personal fan club wherever he goes."

ROBsessed mention In Greek Glamour!

How cool is this? LovelikeaCullen sent me the scans of Greek Glamour.

She says: Its the GQ photos and a worship piece of an article. They mention ROBsessed and say they will hang around your page while counting down the days for New Moon. Here is a translation from Stella:

It begins with the big impact that Rob had in his last film. According to “confessions of twicrack addict” blog, we need to wait for about 231 days; 28 hours and 2 minutes for the release of “new moon” …if we manage to fly to New York.

It mentions about the madness that has come over women and young girls over Rob, and it mentions some links, or sites that people can read (enter ROBsessed) or see several trailers at youtube. In a few words, get more addicted and don’t miss a thing related to Rob.

It gives a brief intro about his first appearances as an actor, till the moment that he was rehearsing his role of Edward in the director’s bedroom with Kristen. Even though he was terrified at the audition, he was thrilled to be with Kristen, because he was been very impressed by her play at “into the wild”.

Glamour God: Robert Pattinson
Mad about the boy

TomStu Interview and Rob mention

LittleBear found this article at Swiss 20 Minuten Online. You can check out the article at source apparently it's in German. Here is the translation thanks to Annik0r :)

Tom Sturridge is like the nice guy from next door. So why is it, that he`s more successful in acting than in love?
Tom Sturridge is cute, very cute. His messed and a little oily hair is hidden under a cap, he`s just
indulged himself in a massage at the hotel, which he`s almost embarassed by. The 23-year-old smiles cannily like the boy from next door. Even though residing in a suite in the Baur au Lac and being dealt with as the "next big thing" back in Great Britain. When you see him, you want to hang out with him, have a beer and listen to good music.

In "The Boat That Rocked", Tom Sturridge plays teenager Karl, whose mother sends him to a boat where some peeved DJs run a pirate channel. There`s fun, sex, drugs and a lot of rock`n`roll ahead for Karl.

- Friday: Tom, the soundtrack of "The Boat That Rocked" really rocks! Did the sixties-sound
influence your taste in music?
Tom Sturridge: To me, the Rolling Stones, Otis Redding or Van Morrison have always been the
greatest. I grew up with their music. No day passes without me listening to Van Morrison. I really admire the guys, because without them, the music of today wouldn`t be like it is.

- Do you like the fashion style of the sixties as much as the music?
Well, look at me (laughs)! I don´t care about fashion, I never go shopping. The shirt belongs to a friend, the t-shirt was made by my sister´s boyfriend, and the shoes, well, it´s obvious (points to his shabby Nikes).

- The movie is too funny for words. Did you have equally fun when shooting it?
Absolutely! As we were constantly filmed by three cameras, every joke done is visible in the movie, we improvised a lot and had many laughs.

- You had to audition for several times to get the role. How did you finally convince director
Richard Curtis?
I don´t know, I guess he had a bad day (laughs). I wanted this role no matter what, because I wanted to make a movie with Richard Curtis and all these great actors like Philip Seymour Hoffman, Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson. I´m proud that it did work out! And on top of that, I really needed a job.

Originally, Tom wanted to become a thatcher. The typical english thatched roof already fascinated him as a tiddler: <> In any case, the son of producer Charles Sturridge and actress Phoebe Nicholls never wanted to become an actor. <>, he says. That he ended
up in movies anyway was completely by chance. At the age of 17, director Istvan Szabo enquired him for a small role in the comedy <> with Annette Benning. Tom accepted because he was
interested in the director and noticed: hey, being an actor is cool, you´re free.

- Which stars inspired you for acting?
No stars, more these little moments in everyday life. For example when a girl brushed my elbow, or a friend played the guitar for me.

- Like for example your best friend, the Twilight-star Robert Pattinson? You lived together in
London. How was that?
That was a great time. We had a completely normal flat share life, borrowed each other´s clothes, talked about women and fought about the washing-up.

- Rob and Tom, a dreamteam for womankind. What happens, when you rock a club together?
We never rocked a club in our lifes. We tend to go to bars and pubs. Like normal guys: two guys having a beer and talking nonsense.

- You´re not surrounded by screaming groupies?
No, fortunately not! Rob is mostly famous in the US. And I´m hardly ever recognized on the streets of London.

- That will surely change with "The Boat That Rocked". No jimjams with being famous?
I actually can´t really imagine being famous. So I´m not afraid. Still, I saw with Rob that it´s not funny when paparazzis besiege you. I like wandering through the streets of London without getting noticed.

- Hand in hand with your girlfriend...?
I don´t have a girlfriend. But I´d like to. If any Swiss girl is interested, she should get in touch with me.

- Is it so difficult with London girls?
It´s generally difficult with love. Or how many loves did you have in your life?

- Two. But you´ve surely been in love as well?
Only once. When I find the love of my life, I´ll build us a house with a thatched roof.
