Robert Pattinson Defends Heath Ledger’s Honor

Behold! It is the gift of further R.Patz Sparklepants do-gooding. I can’t help it. My apologies to those of you who haven’t been wooed by this unicorn of slobby hotness.

Earlier in December Robert Pattison attended a show at The Improv. A tacky and heartless comic was trying to make a tasteless joke out of the death of Heath Ledger. Offended and hurt, Sparklepants stood up for Ledger.

Us Weekly reports:

“[He] booed a comic who said, “Here’s my impression of Heath Ledger,” then he collapsed and began faking convulsions. “Robert and his friend went nuts yelling at him, “ the source said.

“The comic didn’t know who it was, but I’m sure he found out later!”

Pattinson reportedly yelled “F**k you! You suck!” at the comic’s attempt at humor. Also I feel I should mention the event was benefiting the fight against Prop 8. After Heath was a well voiced proponent for gay rights, I find it difficult to believe that someone would stoop so low to attack a someone who fearlessly took on the touchy subject both in film and in life.

When the buzz from my whiskey shooters wear off, I am going to be so pissed.

Go him, I haven’t seen Twilight or anything but I watch like every award show and I saw him at the Oscars, seems like a nice guy. I have a lot of respect for him for doing that. Heath Ledger was amazing. I don’t think I’ll ever be impressed by another actor after seeing his performance in The Dark Knight. Just amazing.
