Hollywood's Grand Dame of Gossip and Style
Ol’ Sparklepants can’t pick a glitter booger without a herd of Twihards shanking each other for it. The stress of being the constant center of worldwide manhunt has Rob doing all he can to shed his Twilight fame.
Robert Pattinson reportedly told OK! (via MTV UK) that he is already working to disassociate himself from his role as Edward Cullen.
“When you’re really successful you pay a certain price. Especially because I’ve been so successful with Twilight I will probably have to prove for the next 10 years that I am more than just Edward.”
Along with his woes of typecasting, he misses the simple things in life.
“The other day at a dinner. I was told I would be sitting next to a table with 18 people and my first thought was, ‘Great, probably a mob of teenagers’. But it was 18 Asian children and they didn’t know who I was. It was the most relaxed dinner I’ve had in ages.”
Pattinson threw out the idea of focusing on music during an BBC Radio 1 interview.
“I’d like to start performing again because I haven’t done it in so many years now. It makes such a difference in your life. If you’ve ever done it once it’s very addictive.”
“The Water for Elephants” is known for showing up to random pubs on open mic nights to perform as well as singing a song for the soundtrack of the first installment of ‘Twilight.’

It’s the time of year when Oscar winning movies take on teen favorites in the MTV Movie Awards. Already announced, SNL’s Jason Sudeikis will host the show on Sunday, June 5th. Justin Bieber is even up for an award!
Ah young love…you make a girl dream big and get regular STD checks.
Though they have spent much of their time hiding their ‘forbidden’ love (with the exception of being snapped all lovey-dovey at a friend’s wedding-see those pics HERE), ‘Twilight’ co-stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were caught swapping spit while at the premiere party for Pattinson’s new film, ‘Water for Elephants’ (read about Pattinson’s less than sexy sex scene with Reese Witherspoon HERE).
Everyone’s favorite sparkling vampire, Robert Pattinson, is trying his best these days to lose his fangs in hopes of actually starring in movies that attract more than 13 year old girls.
While promoting his new film, ‘Water for Elephants’ with Reese Witherspoon (read about their not-so-sexy love scene HERE), Pattinson discussed his favorite co-star…and it’s not girlfriend Kristen Stewart!
“[Tai-the elephant in the film]is such a phenomenal creature. Hanging out with elephants is such a life-changing experience. I love that my job as an actor allows me to spend three months with elephants.”
However, Pattinson is quick to mention his growing distaste for paprazzi and the media, who like to delve into his personal life as much as possible.
When asked about a recent ‘interview’ Pattinson allegedly gave to an Italian magazine which claims Pattinson was ready to marry girlfriend Kristen Stewart and start a family, Sparklepants puts the brakes on:
“I don’t understand how they printed that. It’s a completely made-up interview. I’d love to have a family — sometime in the future.”
Rumors surrounding Pattinson and Stewart’s relationship pop-up more often than a virgin at a rodeo. In fact, a few weeks ago it was reported the two split while, just last week, Pattinson allegedly dropped $17,000 on a promise ring for his lady.

I had envisioned Rob taking KStew on a shopping spree and making it rain at Hot Topic, but they spent the day with Twilight friends.
Kristen Stewart turned 21 and celebrated her birthday in Vancouver. Rumors that they broke up proved to be total crap (as we already told you) and Robert Pattinson even led everyone in singing ‘Happy Birthday.’
Via Us:
“Rob led the crowd singing for her, and you could tell she was so embarrassed but in a cute way!” says the source. “Everyone was in a good mood, but it was a bittersweet night (as filming is almost complete). Rob and Kristin were together all night,” says the insider. “They held hands and he kissed her cheek a bunch of times.”
They were joined by the Twilight cast and crew on Saturday night at Rockwell Bar and Grill in Squamish. The guest list included Taylor Lautner and Ashley Greene despite Ashley’s admission they didn’t get along on set at times. After snaking on oysters, Stewart was surprised with a simple chocolate cake brought in by private caterers. Finally, she was presented with her birthday present…a motorcycle.
“Rob was so excited for Kristen and they each took turns riding it,” says the source. “Kristen learned to ride a dirt bike in New Moon so they thought it would be appropriate. Rob was supervising as she sat on it to make sure she was ok. They looked like they were having a great time, and it will be something they can really enjoy!”

Are you counting down the months? The days? The minutes? Yes, Twi-Hards, I am talking to you. The ‘Twlight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part One’ opens this November, but in the meantime, Robert Pattinson has two other movies to pimp.
The first being ‘Water for Elephants’ (see the trailer for that film HERE) and the second is ‘Bel Ami’ which features Pattinson as a womanizing journalist who sleeps his way to the top. Much like I had to do to get to the middle here at Hollywood Dame.
Via Elle:
ELLE: Was it fun playing a ladies’ man instead of a celibate?
RP: Completely. I thought it was funny as well—Twilight having quite a bit of a female audience—to play a guy who basically screws women out of money. I like the fact that you never hear of a movie where the bad guy stabs every single person in the back and then wins.
ELLE: So you relished playing a sleazy journalist?
RP: I like the section where he gets a job as a gossip writer and in a completely banal way just makes stuff up—uses the same story and changes the names. I think that still is very, very true.
Pattinson didn’t hold back his true feelings about the paparazzi that follow his day-to-day routine, either.
“You know, when the whole thing dries up and there’s hardly any paparazzi around—I don’t know, in 15 years or something—I like the idea of just one paparazzo coming out and trying to get a picture, and I just beat the sh*t out of him. I mean—out of nowhere—when my picture’s not even worth…and I’ve spent all my money, so you can’t sue me!”

Fans and industry members voted Taylor Swift as the Academy of Country Music’s entertainer of the year at Sunday night’s 46th annual ACM Awards, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, while televised on CBS. Swift played her new single, “Mean,” the sharp-tongued response to some of her haters, playing on a fake backwoods front porch with accompaniment from an old-style string band with fiddle, mandolin, acoustic guitar and a six-string banjo.
“For me, with the entertainer of the year award, I see the face of Shania [Twain] and Garth [Brooks] and my heroes,” she told PEOPLE after snagging the honor. “To be among them – it just means so much.”
Lady Antebellum also took major ACM awards with top vocal group and album of the year for the multiplatinum song “Need You Now.” The Band Perry, a bluegrass-rooted family trio, was voted in as overall best new artist over best new solo artist winner Eric Church.
For his part, Brad Paisley seemed genuinely surprised when he won best male vocalist over Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, George Strait and Keith Urban. In the moments after the announcement he seemed taken aback by being named as country’s top male voice, as if the award was too much. (Paisley opened the show with “Old Alabama,” a song that found him borrowing lines from Alabama’s “Mountain Music.”)
“I am honestly shocked. This is way too many of these for me,” he said of his fifth consecutive trophy in the category. “I don’t want to know who got paid what,” he quipped, quickly adding, “No, it’s all very fair.”
Award shows tend to be as much about the performances as the actual awards — or even more so. The ACM awards pushed the envelope more than most… at the 45-minute mark there had been seven songs without a single award being handed out. Hoping a genre-crossing appeal will improve ratings and possibly expose non-country fans to the music, producers paired Rihanna with Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles for a performance of Rihanna’s latest single, “California King Bed.” While the two had obvious chemistry, their voices didn’t blend so well.
The crowd at the MGM arena jumped to its feet when Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler joined Carrie Underwood for a rendition of her heavy rock tune “Undo It” and Aerosmith’s classic “Walk This Way.” But when Tyler sang, “So I gave her just a little kiss, like this,” she pulled away at the last second and grinned.
The show also teamed veteran singer-songwriter James Taylor with the Zac Brown Band for a performance segment and lined up Ryan Seacrest, actress Reese Witherspoon and “Twilight” actor Robert Pattinson to be among the award presenters. Miranda Lambert made the most trips to the podium, earning four awards last night, honored as best female vocalist, and her hit single “The House That Built Me” was named both single and song of the year. The song snagged video of the year as well.
Entertainer of the year nominee Aldean even worked a couple of country rap interludes into his “Dirt Road Anthem.” Among the awards handed out before Sunday’s telecast, Reba McEntire was honored for career achievement and Swift collected the Jim Reeves International Award, which recognizes country performers who spread the music worldwide. The Tex Ritter Award that goes to movies that emphasize country music went to the Gwyneth Paltrow starring “Country Strong.” Garth Brooks took another ACM Award, even though he released no new recordings during the eligibility period, as one of two recipients of the Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award, which also was given to Larry Gatlin & the Gatlin Brothers.
McEntire hosted the show for the 13th time, bringing Blake Shelton on to co-host with her. Much of the pair’s banter during the show centered on Shelton learning to do the job, which he handled for the most part with ease and humor, while taking a jab at Miley Cyrus.
“Eric Church has a big hit this year with ‘Smoke a Little Smoke,’” Shelton, 34, told the audience. His punch line? “I heard it was about Miley Cyrus.”
Shelton also poked fun at Swift’s breakup with Jake Gyllenhaal, and made low blows to LeAnn Rimes’ marriage issues. However, a Charlie Sheen joke did sneak its way in there eventually when Blake said that the MGM Grand was so big it would take Sheen forever to trash it. He then noted that since that statement was “not a joke,” he didn’t break the “no Charlie Sheen” rule that was playfully put into effect at the beginning of the ceremony.
Full list of 2011 ACM Winners:
- Entertainer of the Year: Taylor Swift
- Top Male Vocalist of the Year: Brad Paisley

Robert Pattinson talked with MTV about his less than sensual sex scene with Reese Witherspoon in ‘Water for Elephants.’ The ‘Twilight’ star, he will always be Sparklepants to me, revealed that he had a nasty cold while filming the drama.
Per MTV Via Deadbolt:
“I’m not generally that awkward doing stuff apart from when I’ve got my belly coming out, but my nose [was] running all over the place! Reese had this wig on and I was literally wiping my nose on her wig. We’d be doing this really passionate love scene and I had to be [wiping my nose]. It was so stupid!”
If Reese were smart she would have bottled that snot and made a fortune on eBay from some Twihard wanting his DNA.
FYI – Reese married Jim Toth yesterday! Click HERE for the ceremony details including who got snubbed from the invites list…

I was going to title this one “Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s Affectionate Wedding Photos,” but I didn’t want to wake up with the decapitated cardboard cutout head of a Robert Pattinson in my bed nor do I wish to be responsible for sending some Twihard into a panic induced rage.
The two Twilight stars attended a wedding of a mutual friend together and looked couple-cozy in some candid pics. Pattinson and Stewart pose with their arms around each other as Rob leans in close. In another photo, he affectionately cradles her cheek as she beams back at him.
I also threw in Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon’s Entertainment Weekly cover because it looked like Reese was posing with a cardboard cutout of Rob and it gave me a post lunch giggle.
