Rob wins 4TNZ Hottie Tournament

Are we surprised? Ermmm NO! Our boy rocks.

This from the source

"The winner of our first annual 4TNZ March Madness Hottie Tourney, with 7825 votes is...

America's hottest (and coldest!) vampire, Robert Pattinson!R-Patz beat out Nick Jonas, 58% to 42%.

The JoBro put up a brave effort, but seriously, it's tough to "out hot" the British blood sucker."

The Daily 10 (5-6-09)

Oh sweet God at one point they joke about how Rob mentioned having a "penile implant" for certain Little Ashes scenes...CRACKING ME UP!

Again why we love Rob so much.

Ashley Greene: Rob likes being pretty & Spoiler of NM Filming

Thanks again for all the wonderful Birthday wishes. You all rule my world :) You and Robert Pattinson. I'm off to go get drunk and go dancing now. See ya all tomorrow ;)

Love, Gozde

From OK! Magazine:

OK!: How does Alice change in the sequel?
My character’s going to be a good 60 percent bigger in the second film. You get to see the development between Alice, Bella and Edward.

OK!: Does Robert have any problems with putting on that vampire makeup?
He likes being pretty [laughs]! No, I think any guy [actor] is kind of like, eh. But it’s part of the job.

OK!: How do you spend time off the set?
There’s a street in Vancouver called Robson, where we jam with people who play instruments. I’m going to take up guitar, because Jackson [Rathbone], Nikki [Reed], Kristen [Stewart] and Rob [Pattinson] all play guitar and sing.

OK!: Is the cast very close?
Yeah, you create this intense bond with these people. It’s really natural.

OK!: How is Robert handling being the world’s most desirable man?
Rob’s always like, “I don’t belong here, what’s going on?” He’s not the most sociable. He’s not one of those people who can go and talk to anyone. He’s kind of a hermit and a little awkward. He got thrust into this limelight, but he’s dealing with it. I think it’d be kind of difficult for anyone.

OK!: It’s been rumored that Rob had a crush on Kristen. Is that why he’s not dating?
I think he’s loving being single. He’s pretty much one of the most eligible bachelors out there right now. So if he was sad before [about Kristen], I think that he’s all right now.

OK!: Does Kristen stay in touch with her boyfriend, Michael Angarano?
I know that she cares about him a lot and they have a great relationship. On the last film, he would hang out often.

Oh and LAiMEy(puke!) has this bit of spoiler about the New Moon filming:

As I’ve already reported, yesterday’s scenes involved the Volturi and Carlisle in a flashback explaining what happens to vampires who break the rules. Then they reject Edward’s request.

Edward is hurled in the air, tossed against a wall when he attempts to protect Bella. Am pretty sure in the book his torture consisted of him writhing on the floor in pain. Obviously, visually, the throwing is much more spectacular, requiring much less emphasis on, um, Robert Pattinson’s facial expressions. Every time he was hurting in the first movie, he looked like he wanted to poo. Oh hush Twi-hards. It was the direction! (Gozde: Oh how I hate thee...)

Also on sched: Aro is convinced to release Bella, Edward, and Alice because he sees the vision.

Thanks to Jen from The Twilight Times for the tip ;)

Robert Pattinson's New Project: Bel Ami?

According to the French newspaper Lyon Plus, Rob will be in Paris for 3 months at the end of the summer to shoot a new movie which is the adaptation of the novel Bel-Ami written by Maupassant. ( Thanks to Kpucine for the scan and the translation ;))

Gozde:

There have been several reports on this, one of them being from the mouth of Rob himself at the interview we posted (here) a couple of days ago. (Update: Yes, the timing sounds fishy since Rob says "next year" in his interview but this is a RUMOR anyways. We'll let you know when something is set ;))

Bel Ami is a novel written by French Author Guy de Maupassant in 1885. It The story chronicles Georges Duroy's corrupt rise to power from a poor ex-NCO to one of the most successful men in Paris, most of which he achieves by manipulating a series of powerful, intelligent, and wealthy mistresses.(Read more HERE)

Bel-Ami was made into films and mini series before. You can check Guy de Maupassant imdb page for more info.

Rob is going to be a busy bee for the next years to come and for that he deserves a lot of lap dances ;))

Little Ashes Reviews

Ever since I had to sit through the highly praised but horrific movies like Spartan, Team America: World Police (what the HELL was that?) and Lost in Translation (it really was lost in translation for me and I usually LOVE that kind of movies) I stopped reading movie reviews or taking them seriously. I like making up my own mind about a movie. BUT if you'd like to read some reviews about Little Ashes here is a list ;) Looks like most of the reviews are mixed.
