TWILIGHT ODDS AND ENDS TUESDAY 1/20/09
January 20th, 2009
Wallpaper contest, Robert, Vitamin String Quartet, and Bella’s pick-up truck. Lots of Robert today:
-
DON’T FORGET ABOUT OUR WALLPAPER CONTEST
- Sponsored by MuteMath’s song Spotlight, create a wallpaper and win their single on vinyl. Directions and rules here
- Pattinson was there with some friends and performed two songs which apparently “silenced the room” with how good he was. Click here for images. (thanks kat)
- I just saw on itunes that the Vitamin String Quartet performed the songs from Twilight! It is really cool! Just thought I would let you know! ( thanks tayway91)
- He really wants the chance to try out more vampire stuff in the next two Twilight films. Rob told G4: “I want to flip out and kill a whole crowd.” He does admit that being Edward Cullen is tough though. Robert added: “I’m terrible at stunts. I mean I picked up so many injuries during this job. “Nothing terrible…terminal groin chafing from the harnesses. “Always wear padding to be a vampire.” Source
- When a fan asked him if a girl had ever asked him out he replied: “I’ve never been asked out on a date…or maybe I have. “It can’t have been very memorable.” Robert was actually being interviewed for a radio show at the time and took off his jacket halfway through. When he was asked why he was stripping off he explained that he had dandruff adding: “I’m such a sex symbol right.” Source
- He isn’t that surprised that teenage girls view his character as the perfect boyfriend. Rob explains: “It’s weird but girls always seem to do that. As a guy you look at girls and think ‘What do you see in him.’ “Nice guys always come last.” Source
- He says, “I found that women prefer men with small flaws—bad boys.”They don’t always open the door for you, but they promise adventure. A guy like James Dean would always win out against a gentleman… He’s a cool guy.”There is no film of his where you get bored.”I’ve been obsessed with him since I was a boy. He has been my hero since I was seven years old.” Source
- When he was asked by a MTV presenter ‘Have you been working on anything new, any new projects?’ Rob replied: “I’ve been trying to get healthier…that’s my project at the moment.” Robert added: “I’ve been trying to improve my spelling and yeah spelling has been a big one for me at the moment. “I had to change my bank account details and also I had a parking ticket the other day…it’s an ongoing project.” Source
- Kyle Anderson of West End Motors came to the rescue from close to home.”He brought in a whole box full of gas caps, and we picked out a really nice one and a semi-nice one that we will have as a backup — just in case,” Gurling said. Source

I look forward to seeing the winning wallpaper for the MuteMath’s contest. Hopefully we will get to see other entries too. On another note, I don’t think I really want to see Robert(Edward) attack a crowd of people but it would be interesting to see him play an aggressive or primal(more so then Twilight) role. And I’m sure Rob’s fan girls would skwee. He has a point when he mention that girls like the ‘bad boys’. I still like the good guys, they can still be fun! And it’s cool to hear he’s facing his flaws(for a better word) and improving his life. It makes him a better role model, especially after the pictures of him smoking. Not that it’s any of our business. Oh and the gas cap story is cute(again, lack of a better word).
LOL, Rob seems to have a really good sense of humor. I love it.
Ok lol.
As good looking as Rob is..I wouldn’t date him.
He always looks so depressed! I mean I heard this story, where Rob had this stalker, who stood outside his New York apartmen for weeks and weeks every day. So Rob took her out on a date. On that date he complained about all the stuff going on in his life. The stalker never came back again.
Its just, I’d love to meet him and get to know him. He just doesnt seem very…friendly. If you get what I mean.
Lol its hard to explain.
Em xx
Rob has to be one of the funniest people ever! lol!
I wonder if Rob was talking about Kristen’s boyfriend when he said “As a guy you look at girls and think ‘What do you see in him?’”
I think Rob seems way more friendly than Kristen. He doesn’t seem cocky and he’s really funny! Kristen often comes off as ornery and ungrateful to me. I want to like her so bad, but she makes it hard sometimes. I can’t really see Rob getting married though. He seems like one of those guys who wouldn’t want to commit in that way and wouldn’t want to be bothered by a serious relationship and girl problems. Maybe later though, just not for a while. I’m rambling.
I agree with everything Kerri and Carly stated. lol
Well I would love to meet Robert. Im not an obsessed fan by all means. I feel that he is very talented and he should know this. I would just love to shake his hand and say ” your very talented and your not as crazy as everyone makes you out to be.” Then just walk away.
