Established in June 2009, after seeing the monumental hysteria ensue while Rob was in New York filming “Remember Me”, our elite affiliate Let Me Sign organized the Respect Me campaign, which is dedicated to promote the essential privacy of this young actor’s life.

For their newest project, the Respect Me campaign has launched a one-of-a-kind, originally designed line of merchandise for supporters, including T-shirts, tote bags and mugs! All proceeds are being donated to the Livestrong organization who help “fight to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.”

Check out the campaign’s store and help support not one, but two awesome causes!

Moms crush on the ‘Twilight’ boys and other screen candy like it’s 1984.

Jill Etesse was hooked on the “Twilight” books the second she cracked the series opener. She ripped through the saga on paper and rented movie No. 1.
Lifestyles Twi Moms

Then the madness began.

“I joined the lines of teens for ‘New Moon,’” said the 38-year-old mom of two. “My husband is deathly embarrassed. Half my friends think I’m crazy.”

Etesse, from Leesburg, Va., won’t let her 8-year-old daughter anywhere near Team Edward OR Team Jacob, but did she take herself to “Eclipse” this summer? “Oh yeah.”

Is there something, um, icky about moms lusting after the boys of “Twilight” or other morsels of ripe screen candy? Heck no, said 54-year-old Toni Downey of Limerick, Pa. We’re not dead yet!

Downey’s more into Matt Bomer, 32, of TV’s “White Collar” at the moment, but “I’ve had impure thoughts about barely legal boys as well.” Strictly the celebrity look-don’t-touch variety, she notes.

Eighteen-year-old Taylor Lautner’s six-pack? “Mind-boggling,” said Downey, who has a 25-year-old daughter. “She likes Buffy as her only vamp thing, and we both thought Pattinson was hotter as a blond in Harry Potter.”

Into the light they’ve come, publicly declaring their sometimes puzzled joy, juggling movie schedules with diaper changes, kid lunches and soccer practices. They’re definitely looking forward with younger fans to the last two “Twilight” movies starting next year, and they’re scooping up all sorts of reads intended for the young.

“I have no idea why it’s so appealing to me,” Etesse said of her “Twilight” jones. “I’m married to a tall, dark and handsome French-Irish guy, but those abs, you know. I’d trade a pair of my Jimmy C’s for my husband to have those.”

In June, 30-year-old mom Christina Fiedler was undaunted by a tent city of young people on her way in to a special screening of “Eclipse” at a Los Angeles theater. She’s not all that much older than 24-year-old Robert Pattinson and his mid-20s Cullen kin, played by Kellan Lutz and Jackson Rathbone, but her mom status makes her feel light years their senior, especially since they’re all supposed to be teens on screen.

“What an odd experience to be an adult woman in a theater full of screaming tweens,” said Fiedler, who has a 2-year-old son and has blogged about her “Twilight” habit at Mom Logic. “I didn’t go with my Team Jacob or Team Edward shirt like some of the women my age did. There were quite a few of them. I didn’t talk back to the screen like they did.”

Is there an age cutoff of appropriateness? A mom code when it comes to ogling young hunks?

Single mom Victoria Martinez, 37, in Hemet, Calif., said yes. She has three boys of her own, ages 15, 14 and 11, and won’t let her mind wander to jail bait. The Cullen clan may be playing teens, but they’re way legal in life so it’s full steam ahead.

“I don’t have a husband or even a significant other to worry about when it comes to my man candy crushes,” she said, adding that she’s a bit of a cougar on the ground. “Taylor Lautner isn’t on my list because he’s only 18 and I still think of him as Shark Boy.”

Martinez first heard of the Twilight saga when she learned the bedroom-eyed Pattinson was cast as Edward. “He’s the reason I read the books. There’s just something irresistible about him. I’ll continue to lust over and enjoy them on the big screen long after the teens move on to the next big thing.”

She has others, not just the Twilight crew. There’s Jake Gyllenhaal, who at 29 was “a nice piece of summer eye candy” in “Prince of Persia.” Downey especially liked the Entertainment Weekly spread featuring Bomer pouring a jug of water over his head, nicely soaking his white T-shirt.

“And he and his character have a pinch of naughty in the devastating smile,” she said.

With an upswing in grown-ups (yes, women) embracing books intended for teens, are moms thinking younger, or at least enjoying the freedom to express their still-young sides in ways June Cleaver was denied?

Fiedler’s Team Edward, though considers him bad boyfriend material for his younger fans. He encourages Bella to keep secrets from her family and ditch her old friends. He needs anger management counseling and the two are never happy. Besides, his family finds her “irresistible.” You be the judge.

“It’s not so much as a ‘lust’ thing as it is escaping from a hectic daily life and into their frivolous ones,” she said. “It’s this generation’s Romeo and Juliet — forbidden love.”

Here’s the most recent update regarding Bel Ami’s UK promotion direct from our official source:

“Regarding officially released movie stills: there will be more but not for a few months as the film is way off being finished. The same is true of the promotional poster. Once these items become available they will certainly send them to us. There is currently no fixed time scale for the release of this info.

Our official sources are very hopeful there will be a UK premiere, however a date has yet to be set for this. Once more info is clarified they will pass it on to us.

There is still no distributor for the 3 remaining areas.

They are very happy with the interest we are generating and will stay in frequent touch.”

I remember the first time I saw Robert Pattinson on screen. He fell off a tree an an actor in glasses said: “This is my son Cedric”. My mouth fell open from seeing such a perfect face. As soon as i got home from the theater I started researching photos of him on the internet. That’s how my passion for Rob was born, and over the years has grown more and more to the point of being the inspiration for a new character and book about him ‘El Amuleto’

Hands up who wants to nurse Robert Pattinson’s injuries? Me too! They’re all fake, of course, as he did a photoshoot for new movie Water For Elephants in LA yesterday alongside his costars. Doesn’t it remind you of those pics of him all cut up while shooting Remember Me in New York? He showed off a little of his chest in his open necked sweater, definitely not as smart and dapper as some of the costumes he’s worn on set. I can’t wait to see this film!

Courtney should know almost better than anyone that tabloids make up quotes and stories to sell magazines and gain publicity. Hence, who knows if Rob even said anything about her?
CourtneyLoveUK:

He plays the vampire every girl wants to be bitten by – so it was our duty (and a hard one at that) to grill the 24-year-old over whether he’s anything like the gorgeous Edward Cullen, being mobbed, and believing in fate…

Robert Pattinson appears a little befuddled. The Twilight heart-throb has come straight from a night-shoot on the movie he’s filming, Water For Elephants, into our interview. In real life, Rob couldn’t be further removed from the character he plays in the Twilight saga, Edward Cullen. He’s warm, funny, and, in sharp contrast to Edward, very relaxed. There are no pouts and fiery-eyed stares from Pattinson. He and co-star Kristen Stewart will not discuss their off-screen relationship, despite ’jokingly’ stealing a kiss on stage at the MTV Movie Awards in June, but he’s happy to talk about anything else, from the serious to the trivial. Clearly, he was not built for superstardom – he finds the interview process awkward – but he’s loosened up since his early pre-Twilight interviews and luckily he’s not cursed with an A-lister’s ego. Dressed in jeans and white shirt, his famously wild hair neatly cropped, he settles down for a natter about life…

Have your mates ever called you Edward by mistake?
People have called me Edward – not family, that would be weird! My mates might have done it to rib me. They don’t really know about Twilight, but some of them found out about this R-Pattz thing, so now one of them always calls me R-Pattz, which he thinks is hilarious.

Edward can read thoughts. If we could hear your thoughts, what would they sound like?
Complete silence, dust blowing in the wind. Or maybe just like white noise…

What aspects of Edward do you most identify with?
It’s changed a bit in this film. In the first two, I guess there was his feeling that you can’t relate to anyone, or no one can relate to you. I was like, ’I never want to talk to anyone’. I used to feel like that when I was younger. I’ve grown up now.

Are you a traditionalist, like Edward?
It is quite pronounced in the movie, and I respect that, but when I work on other films, I want to play really amoral characters. I don’t feel like I have to stand by his values, but I respect them. I guess courtship is a good thing, but only if it’s pleasurable. Some people meet each other in a bar and sleep with each other that night, then stay with each other for the rest of their lives. Or they could stay with each other and never get married. It just doesn’t make any difference.

You definitely play an amoral character in your next film, Bel Ami.
Yes. There’s something fun about Bel Ami, going from Edward to some guy who pretty much abuses women to get money out of them. Edward so wouldn’t approve – and I thought that was a funny irony. In Bel Ami all the women my character screws over are all attracted to him to begin with, so he starts having affairs with them and destroys their lives.

You are much less intense than Edward, clearly…
I don’t know, I guess in a lot of ways. I think the main thing is he’s very extreme in his way of thinking, and I’m not like that. I don’t think in such absolutes, like ’I can’t be with this girlfriend, I’m going to kill myself!’ It’s quite a teenage thing.

Can you go out anywhere without being mobbed?
In LA, sometimes I can. I wish I still had the beard I wore for Bel Ami. It was a good disguise. But LA is definitely harder than London, although London’s changed recently. The good thing about Britain in that respect is that people are often too embarrassed to come and say stuff. They’re embarrassed to have even seen you. I used to go into the same HMV shop all the time and they had New Moon posters everywhere, and I was worried I’d get stalked, but the guys at the counter would not even look at me, even though there were posters everywhere.

How hard is it to dodge the paps in London?
I can’t believe I was photographed recently going to buy underpants with my best friend in Marks & Spencer. They were 5ft away – we were going to have this nice little day, and they photographed me buying underpants!

So you can laugh it off?
Yeah, the only time things matter is when people start calling my family for stories. That gets in the way. 99 per cent of stuff is just made up. The thing is, the more stuff is reported, the more it starts to affect your career. If you’re constantly in gossip magazines people think, ’He’s not a proper actor, he’s just a gossip person.’

Do you want to step out of the limelight?
I want to produce a film. It would be so satisfying to turn up to work and not have to go into costume or make-up. You stand behind the monitor and don’t even have the responsibility of the director.

You recently said you think you might be dead by 30. What was that about?
I was talking about luck running out. When I was doing interviews for Harry Potter, I was thinking, ’I don’t want this to be all the luck in my life.’ So now I’m getting ridiculously lucky and I wonder if I might suffer some punishment at the hands of the universe and be dead by the time I’m 30. I like to believe in fate, so I’m not responsible for anything!

You’re working with animals on Water For Elephants. How’s that?
Almost every day I’m working with an exotic animal; there are scenes where I’m leading buffalo and elephants into cages. It’s insane, like I got bitten on the arm by a lion with no teeth. They were like, ’It’s fine, he does it all the time.’ And I was like, ’Erm, OK…’ But they had to get him to do it harder, because he was being so gentle and just licking my arm.

Is it true you’re going to play Kurt Cobain in the Nirvana movie?
Sometimes these things just appear. I love Nirvana, but I love them a bit too much – I’d be embarrassed. And you see all these comments, like from Courtney Love, saying ’What the f*ck! He’s totally wrong for it’, and I’m like, ’I f*cking said no, you d*ck!’ I didn’t get offered it. For one thing, I’m too tall, and I can’t sing like him, I’m nothing like him!’ It’s ridiculous.

What does it mean to be addicted to Robert Pattinson? Do you watch all of his movies? Do you buy every magazine he is featured in? Do you buy any and all merchandise featuring his face? As a fan, of course you do BUT what does it mean to be addicted? We have devised a Top 10 List of You Know You’re Addicted to Robert Pattinson when….

10.) You have to pose and take a picture with any promotional item featuring Robert’s face…. it doesn’t matter where…. the local theater, on the subway, inside Wal-mart…. you name it…. you take a picture!

9.) You’ve finally finished your scrapbook, entitled ‘My Life’. It includes your baby pictures, your wedding photos and photos of your first child. Good job, Mrs. Pattinson, you figured out Photoshop for those wedding pictures and that website that gave birth to your daughter via a simple blending of you and your new hubby.

8.) You own every book Robert has been spotted with or referenced in an interview. Not only that but you have bought copies for all of your friends because you have started a book club dedicated to these books…. much like Oprah Winfrey’s successful book club. Your friends don’t know the inspiration behind your choices though…. what they don’t know won’t hurt them.

7.) You have an entire folder dedicated to KStew (Kristen Stewart) photos. However, it’s not because you like her, but rather so you can mimick her latest look. Afterall, if that’s what Rob wants, Rob shall get.

6.) Robert Pattinson is the cover for this month’s GQ magazine. Along with purchasing the magazine, you also grab a box of First Response pregnancy tests. For the power of RPattz is sure to impregnate you merely by photograph.

There’s no typo in the title. Eclipse Chocolat is a quaint establishment that offers a cafe… and a little slice of heaven; namely an assortment of gourmet chocolates! Its a ‘green’ business that donates 10% of its sales to non-profit organizations. Click the image below to visit their site!

A New Moon crowns the night sky… This is the moment of the Eclipse; a convergence of Art and Science. It is chocolate-making as alchemy.

I’ve known of the place for a while now since two of my best friends are foodies/chefs, but since ‘Eclipse’ has officially been in theaters for a week now, my friends are helping me celebrate with ‘Eclipse’ Burger King meals and ‘Eclipse’ treats at the drive-in and maybe a little Edward Cullen doll sitting up on the dashboard. Ha! So, I thought I’d share the place with other fans who may want to pick up some ‘Eclipse’ chocolate goodies to munch on as they go back for repeat viewings of ‘Eclipse’.

Thanks to Marie M. for sending this information in… and for spoiling our diets lol

Sticking up for co-stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.

“They have a lot of heat on them. They’re in a world of their own. We get in the tabloids, but not even close to what Rob and Kristen get. And from what I see, they handle it really well and I think people should cut them some slack because they’re very young and just trying to get through this.”

It’s been a long promotional road for the stars of Eclipse, but their movie finally arrives in theaters at midnight! Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have had their hands full over the past few days with one last press push, and now we’ll see if all their hard work pays off at the weekend box office. Their film has already become the year’s top advance ticket seller, and additional screenings have been added. It has potential to be the highest-grossing installment of the Twilight series so far, but tell us — are you planning to see a midnight screening of Eclipse?

Are You Planning to See a Midnight Screening of Eclipse?

Yes — I can’t wait one minute longer!

No — Despite my Twi-love, I’m holding out for the weekend.

Not seeing it at all — The series just isn’t my thing.
