‘New Moon’ Stars Forced To Evacuate London Hotel

November 12, 2009 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

For the brave few Twi-hards that decided to camp outside of The Dorchester Hotel in London on Wednesday waiting to catch a glimpse of their favorite vampires and werewolves, Christmas most definitely came early. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and “New Moon” director Chris Weitz were forced to evacuate the hotel when a fire alarm went off around lunchtime, forcing everyone outside.

Per MTV:

“Everyone was out on the street. There Rob was with his entourage, including Kristen.”

A Dorchester Hotel spokesperson called it a “minor incident” although for those lucky few Twi-hards camped outside, it was probably better than free tequila shot night at the local bar. The actors were said to be at the hotel giving press interviews at the time the fire alarm went off. And how much you want to bet that alarm was pulled by one of the campers? Hmmmm….

Rachel Bilson Burgled

May 20, 2009 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

While Rachel Bilson was visiting fiance Hayden Christiansen in Canada earlier this month, some burglars broke into her LA house and helped themselves to jewelry and designer clothing. Although the actual incident occurred on May 8, she has yet to file a complete missing items report with the police. Rachel’s mother discovered the break in while stopping in to check on things.

Per People:

“They stole all her designer labels – shoes, clothes, bags … She collected a lot of vintage shoes – she’s a size 5 – and they took them all,” says a pal. Also boosted? “All her jewelry, including some handed down to her by her grandmother. Fashion is her passion. She’s devastated.”

Police are investigating the robbery, while Rachel tries to get over it reportedly left feeling shaken and violated. While there are no signs of forced entry, the loss is estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

What – with hers and Haydens money they couldn’t invest in a security system? Make sure to lock your doors! People are getting desperate in this bleak economy!

Gerard Butler Facing 6 Months in Jail for Paparazzi Beat-Down

May 15, 2009 By Holly Stafford 3 Comments

Movie star hunk Gerard Butler has been charged with misdemeanor criminal battery over an incident involving a paparazzi-photographer last year. If convicted, he could be sentenced up to 6 months in jail. The incident occurred the night of October 7th, 2008 after a premiere party for “RockNRolla.” Allegedly, the photographer was trailing Gerard’s limo for hours, verbally harassing Butler whenever he got in and out of the limo, and even was chasing people through the streets.

Gerard’s manager Alan Siegel said the actor was forced to have his driver stop the car he was riding in after the particular photographer repeatedly sped through red lights and almost struck two pedestrians. Butler was said to have then punched him several times, bloodying the photographer’s lip. Police filed a report against the “300” actor over the scuffle. The Los Angeles City Attorney has already filed legal charge against him on Wednesday, May 13th, and Gerard is due in court for an arraignment on June 10th. His attorney, Blair Berk, has said that Butler is not required to, and won’t, appear in court on the matter.

I don’t blame him for punching someone who was following him! It would have been cool if he yelled “This… is… Sparta!” right before knocking the pap in the mouth!!

Dirty Boy, Robert Pattinson Injured On Set Of New Moon Rumors

March 25, 2009 By Crista Webster 5 Comments

Attention all Twi-hards, we have a vampire down! It is being reported by several sources that my beloved Robert Pattinson was injured today while filming scenes New Moon in Vancouver!! Before you throw yourself in front of on-coming traffic, he is fine. He will go on with the movie. He can still give good face.

According to reports, Sparklepants was knocked in the noggin when a piece of a metal billboard blew-off in a gust of wind.

Via The National Ledger:

“During filming of his upcoming flick, ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ in Vancouver, Pattinson had just started shooting a scene when a rogue gust of violent wind tore a heavy metal sign from a post. It shot across the location so fast no one even managed to shout a warning at Pattinson, who was just opening his mouth to emote when…WHAM!…the unguided missile smashed into the back of his head.”

Luckily, Pattinson is currently sporting his “Edward Cullen” hair which is full of hairspray and his natural eight layers of grease. His inability to frequently wash may have saved his life.

According to Mike Walker of The Inquirer:

“Rob dropped and then lay deadly still as cast and crew ran to help, sending out a radio call for an ambulance. Finally, Pattinson – looking like he’d had the blood sucked from him – began moving feebly, disoriented, but able to speak. The crew put ice packs on a knot sized lump, and by the time medics arrived, the star was coherent and insisting he was fine.”

Not only is Sparklepants suffering from a knot on his head, he is also offending several of his “New Moon” cast mates and crew members due to his poor hygiene.

Via E! Online:

“He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy. He completely reeks.”

Pattinson was given the rest of the day off and was sent back to his hotel to rest. He continues to wait there for his private nurse who will arrive in a little over a week (wink!). Don’t worry, she will give him a nice spongebath.

UPDATE Via The Dame: Pattinson got wind of the injury story and quickly denied the accident and being smelly.

Moviefone: You know the same thing went around about Zac Efron a while ago; that he doesn’t shower.

Robert: Really? He looks like he smells really good [laughs]. I also do shower.

How often he showers is another question entirely. He went on Jay Leno shortly after “Twilight” released and talked about how he woud go for weeks without a shower.
