My second husband choice (after Brad Pitt)
Good news girls – Robert Pattinson is officially single.
I waltzed over for a little flirt as soon as I saw him at the AmFar charity dinner in the exclusive Hotel du Cap in Antibes.
After warming him up by telling him he is the second best looking vampire in the world, (because Brad Pitt was in Interview With a Vampire), we had a long chat about all matters of the heart.
I just wanted to eat Robert up / snog his face off when he told me: “I haven’t had a girlfriend in ages. I’m not very settled at all. I’ve spent every night of the last six months in hotel rooms around the world. I haven’t been back to my parents house in six whole months.There is no way a girl would put up with that.”
Uhhhh, HELLOOOOO – I’d give it a damn good shot and I’m sure many other girls would consider it.
But Robert added: “I don’t even find time to meet anyone. If I’m not working then I am doing interviews and if I am not doing interviews then I am attending corporate and charity events where I have to be on my best behaviour to stop photos getting out.
“Basically, I don’t have time for fun. It’s 2am now and I am getting up about 5am to go to Rome for five days. Then I’m going somewhere else and then to LA. I’m filming another Twilight that will be released this year and next year I should have three movies out.”
At this point, I was starting to think he was a bit of a moaner until he looked me in the eyes with his full-on glare and I tried not to swoon as he said: “I seriously need to party! I’m just worried that if I start partying I won’t stop as it’s been so long. What can I do?”
Given that he had to get a flight the next day, I told him that the best option would be to get some sleep. He’ll thank me for it in the long-term and remember me as I bet many girls don’t tell him that.

Very honest blog. It is nice for someone to actually tell everyone about someone they will never get to meet how they really are, thank you. And I disagree about the Brad Pitt part.

I though u said he has weird eyes..
wait i dont get it u and laineys posts are diff..
but it was cool of u to ask diff questions rather than the generic ones..
thumbs up!
ps brad pitt can snog my arse, i wud not wana pull a grand pa.
May 25, 2009 at 6:26 pm
so, he just has weird eyes. I guess that means he’s just ugly. you have bad taste in dudes. I’ve seen Pitt in person, too, and I was disappointed. he definitely did not live up to the hype imo.

I’m so jealous that you had the opportunity to have what sounds like a wonderful conversation with MY fave vampire! Sound like you conducted yourself with dignity and grace (right?), not like a giddy teenybopper. You are one lucky gal! Good advice too, even tho I know you would like to have said something totally different! I hope he gets to go home very soon. He may need to recharge his batteries! Thanks for the article…love reading stuff like this.

Actors are sure busy. There aren’t many who could do it. And then there’s that image they have to maintain..
May 25, 2009 at 11:11 pm
Lucky lucky girl, you! I don’t remember in my lifetime (42 yrs) that i’ve ever seen a face that knocked me out so totally. Don’t think i could have chatted w/ him for even a min w/o texting my lawyer for a divorce from my hub.
May 25, 2009 at 11:35 pm
like that – you’d have snogged him even if he was moaning and boring you to death. Thanx for sharing.

Poor guy, it must be difficult to have a whole gaggle of teeny-boppers drooling over his fictional counterpart..after all, it couldn’t be about him as a person, since he’s just not that cute.
Don’t click here!

You know, I totally agree with you. I am a huge fan of the Twilight Saga and Love the movie. This is my first post to anything and I read a lot of what people have to say. I am really glad to here that he had some interest. Love him as an actor and Seems to be a great person. As personally I have never met the guy but I feel for him. All those girls and cameras in his face.
People, just let the man have time to think and be himself, he is human and seems to have a great interest in a lot of other things. He doesn’t like to be photographed but give the man SOOOOMMMMEEE SPACE.
So Miss ZOEGRIFFIN, He will always probably remember you because you were not some crazed fan and you treated him like a friend. Glad you had lots of fun and an experience of a lifetime. Hope many more for you. Good luck in all you do. Thank you for a great little article and sharing your time with a Great and Gifted man.

I’m in love with that guy.
May 26, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Good for you- telling Rob to get some sleep:) I am SURE he appreciated you not trying to get into his pants. Although that’s less fun for you……
Thanks for sharing your story!

Zoe,
You are one lucky lady! I’d like to think I’d do the same thing but I don’t think I could pass that opportunity up. I really feel for Rob! He desperately needs a break to just be young and free. I respect him for resisting temptation and upholding his good guy status. I would’ve handled the whole convo the same as you except for when he asks what can he do. I’d tell him that I’d be happy to go to his hotel room, give him a massage to relieve his stress, order room service and just get to know each other. I love his personality, I know he and I would instantly click! I would have given anything to be in your shoes! If he gave you his number you should definitely give it to me
He complains that no one calls him and I’d like to change that! More than anything I’d just love to give him a big hug and tell him that he is doing an amazing job. Then I’d whisk him away for some much needed and deserved down time to do whatever he wants.

Zoe – Thank you! I don’t normally post, but I just had to! Finally someone who is sane! I am so tired of reading blog after blog about how Robert Pattinson is dating Kristen Stewart. It’s absolutely ludicrous and all based on people who read way too much into pictures and articles that don’t provide the entire context of the conversation. I feel bad for him. His “fans” and certain un-named gossip sites who feed their obsession have made it impossible for him to try to and even be normal, every little thing he does is put under a microscope and then analyzed to death. I hope they find something new to focus on soon so that he can at least try to be normal.
