Ask Rob A Question

About "Remember Me," people. Don't be all "Yeah, hi, Rob, this is Sienna and I'm your biggest fan, and , I really wanted to know...boxers or briefs?" because you will be not only shot down, but ridiculed far and wide over the Internet. And, really, does anyone want infamy THAT much?

So, here's the deal: join the "Remember Me" facebook page and click "become a fan." Submit your question and the Hobo might just answer you via video. Good luck and play nice!

"The Runaways" Gets Distribution

And a release date to boot!


"Bob Berney and Bill Pohlad's Apparition has picked up U.S. distribution rights to Floria Sigismondi's "The Runaways."

The acquisition has taken place more than a month ahead of the film's planned world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in late January. Apparition plans to release the film March 19.

The biographical story of the friendship between Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, who went on to form the groundbreaking all-girl rock band the Runaways in the '70s, the indie film stars Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning as the band's teenage guitarist and singer, respectively. The fact that both actors star in the super-successful "Twilight" franchise likely played a part in the film's appeal."

How Twilight Should Have Ended

This is a MUST SEE video!

"Are you afraid she's going to play baseball better than you?"

Rob Praises Kristen's Mad Guitar Skillz

Yet another radio interview from when the Hobo was in London last month. I swear, it's gonna be six months from now and another new one will pop up and we'll all go back into the CSI lab and start analyzing what he said--looking for voice patterns and trying to develop new software to read between the lines (seriously, WHY has no one invented that? Must I do everything myself? Jesus!).

Something To Remember From Rob's Own Mouth

So, as we all know, there have been several questionable, foreign interviews that have come out, supposedly given by Rob, where he claims a whole slew of thing--just shy of admitting he is, in fact, the Easter Bunny.

My general rule of thumb is if it's a translated interview? It's immediately suspect. Sorry, that's just the way I roll. But, don't let ME influence you. Let's take ROB'S word, shall we?

Check out what Rob has to say about some "quotes" attributed to him in this interview from November 11th, when he was in London (2:25 mark).

Kristen's 'Interview' Cover A Top Ten Favorite

Kristen's 'Interview' magazine cover made Time's Top Ten of 2009. You know what that means: Hobo Dance Party.

OK, probably not--but it's still pretty cool for the Badass.

What Time had to say:

"This is a hauntingly beautiful rendition of a visual pun — allusion meets illusion. The model for Interview's 40th anniversary issue is actress Kristen Stewart, who currently stars in the monster hit Twilight series. Using her as the model is a masterstroke of celebrity-cover timing, perfectly executed. The image is two photos — if you pull back, you can see her holding over her own face a same-scale, torn black-and-white photo of her, whose only color is in her blood-red lips. The ghoulish makeup is perfectly in keeping with current fashion photography, and it serves the dual purpose of enhancing the metaphor while making her look drop-dead beautiful. A final touch: the allusion gets heightened by more blood, this time on the fanglike letter I in the logo. That's why the lady is a vamp!"

Rob in Joy Magazine

‘Women swamp me’

The man with the magic stare is and will be Hollywood’s hottest vam­pire. Robert Pat­tin­son sat down with JOY author Frances Schoen­berger and talked about the Twi­light sequel, co-star Kris­ten Stew­art — and his secret fears.

Robert Pat­tin­son slips through a hid­den entry into the Four Sea­sons Hotel in Bev­erly Hills and greets me with a shy ‘hello’. Plaid shirt, black leather jacket and sport­ing stub­ble: the 6ft tall Brit seems more like a casual bohemian rather than the most wanted celebrity. I have the feel­ing he doesn’t like the spot­light on him­self: His eyes keep wan­der­ing to the floor. How­ever, it’s exactly that, his vul­ner­a­bil­ity and inse­cu­rity that sum up his incred­i­ble charisma.

JOY: When I met you last year you were still a new­comer to this busi­ness. Despite your break­through career you don’t seem to have changed. You still appear down-to-earth, show­ing up to an inter­view by your­self. Do you pass on an entourage?

RP: Hav­ing lots of peo­ple sur­round­ing me per­ma­nently makes me ner­vous. I don’t need an assis­tant or a men­tor. The more peo­ple hover over you the more peo­ple will try to tell you what to do. I don’t care about their opin­ions most of the time (laughs). Although I should try not to be too self-deprecating when being inter­viewed and to not put myself down all the time because fans will prob­a­bly think ‘It’s true, he IS an idiot.’ (laughs)

JOY: The first Twi­light movie pitch­forked you on the crest of the wave. How did your every day life change with all the fame?

RP: Most of the time I don’t even notice being a celebrity because I’m con­stantly work­ing. We started shoot­ing New Moon right after we fin­ished Twi­light and right now we are already work­ing on Eclipse. On the set, it doesn’t mat­ter if I’m famous or not. I get up at 5 in the morn­ing and when I go home at night I’m so tired that I just want to sleep.

JOY: Which part of the fame don’t you like?

RP: It truly is bizarre, how the press keeps lung­ing at me and how much they find to say about me. That means that I can’t go out as much — I need to hide when needed or lay false trails. I mean, I don’t have issues with peo­ple chat­ting me up on the street but if there is a bunch of girls swamp­ing me, things get out of hand.

JOY: Dakota Fan­ning, who plays the evil vam­pire girl Jane, explains the hype of the female fans as such: ‘Edward is the per­fect man, he is hand­some and has great hair.’ What do you think about that?

RP: If all that mat­ters is being attrac­tive and have great hair, those aren’t tough con­di­tions, I’m not sure if I can live up to them though (laughs).

JOY: What’s the dif­fer­ence between you and Edward?

RP: I, too, have bad hair days (laughs).

JOY: What was it like to work with Kris­ten Stew­art again? Did your rela­tion­ship evolve even more after work­ing on New Moon?

RP: I love work­ing with some­one that I really like. She’s been a great co-actor ever since we started shoot­ing Twi­light. Edward’s authen­tic­ity depends on her per­for­mance and vice versa. We chal­lenge each other.

JOY: Would you say it’s eas­ier to fall in love on a movie set?

RP: Of course we spend a huge amount of time together but that doesn’t mean I fall in love with all my co-stars. That would have meant start­ing a love affair with Javier Bel­tran after shoot­ing Lit­tle Ashes (laughs).

JOY: The female fans are all over the for­bid­den love between Bella and Edward. Do you think there is also a part, male fans can relate to?

RP: New Moon of all the movies pro­vides the most excit­ing plot: because Edward is so in love with Bella, he is going through per­ma­nent self-doubt, think­ing he’s not good enough for her. That way he destroys the rela­tion­ship. I think every man can relate to that because we can be pretty con­fused when being in love!

JOY: What does your fam­ily in Eng­land think about the Twi­light hype?

RP: I don’t think they even notice it that much. The other day my mom called to tell me she liked the shirt I was wear­ing in a pic­ture. Up to this point my par­ents have hardly been affected by the paparazzi. They are just really nice peo­ple, a story about them would be rather bor­ing. When my sis­ter vis­ited me in LA the other day she was shocked about how many mag­a­zines had my pic­ture on their covers.

JOY: When was the last time you vis­ited Eng­land?

RP: Almost a year ago when i was finally off work for 3 days. After that I only saw my par­ents at the New Moon pre­miere but we are plan­ning to cel­e­brate Christ­mas together!

JOY: Back in Lon­don you were the singer in a band called ‘Bad Girls’. Will there be any per­for­mances in the future?

RP: I am still writ­ing songs and if I hap­pen to have enough time it is a pos­si­bil­ity. Singing used to be a hobby of mine but now there would be a lot of peo­ple lis­ten­ing, or even crit­i­cize me. That scares me!

JOY: What is your next project?

RP: Next year I will be in New Mex­ico, shoot­ing a west­ern movie called Unbound Cap­tives, together with Hugh Jack­man. This role will be so far off from the role of Edward, noone will be able to com­pare them. My dad is really look­ing for­ward to that movie. He is bet­ter with horses than with vam­pires (laughs).

Scarlet says: I am always leery of translated interviews, as I think things get lost and, to be totally frank (when I'm not Scarlet, I'm Frank--remember that), I think many of them are, well, I'm not gonna say fake, but let's just say less than current/actual/real. But this one at least has the semblance of reality to it.

Question to Rob: So you're saying you don't fall in love with "all" your co-stars? How many then? Hmmm...
