Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: The Not-So-Secret Getaway

May 17, 2010


In a new interview with USA Today, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart pretty much admit to dating. Not that this is news to anyone anymore.

Asked why there are fewer tabloid covers of the pair – except for this hilarious one – Pattinson replied: “We have gotten better at hiding over the last year,” while Kristen agreed:

“That’s totally the reason. They just make up a story to go along with the pictures. If they never get the picture, there’s no story. We are just good hiders now.”

That means there must be something to hide, right?

Soon after this interview, E! News reports that Robsten took off for Laguna Niguel, California. They holed up at the Ritz Carlton in the area, which is about an hour-and-a-half south of Los Angeles.

“You could tell they were a couple,” said a witness. “They didn’t stand out at all. They were dressed very casual – Robert with a baseball cap, jeans and sneakers, and Kristen was casual as well.”

The couple returned to L.A. yesterday, as Rob will soon start filming Water for Elephants. But expect to see plenty of Pattinson and Stewart together again in the near future, as they promote the June 30 release of Eclipse.

Ice-T’s fears for SVU’s fate!

The cancellation of Law & Order has made Ice-T nervous about his spin-off show, Law & Order: SVU. “My show is on its 11th season and going strong. But cross your fingers!” the rapper/actor, who stars as Detective Odafin “Fin” Tutuola on the NBC crime drama, told In Touch at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods’ 2nd Anniversary celebration in Connecticut on May 15. After 20 years, Law & Order’s last episode will air on May 24. “That was unexpected. But that’s Hollywood. You just hope the fans will keep you on,” he says, but luckily, SVU will live on for at least another year. “I’m just thankful I still have a job!”

There was Justin Bieber, ever cuter than a button, stopping for photos with the singer who discovered him:

Chris Harrison: Ali Fedotowsky is “Very Vulnerable”


“The more I got to to know her, the more I realized she’s this strong, independent, beautiful woman, but very vulnerable.” – Chris Harrison on Ali Fedotowsky

As the star of The Bachelorette, premiering one week from tonight (May 24), she has 25 men vying for her love. Men subject to dismissal at her every whim.

But will the gorgeous blonde herself be the one who’s worried?

Ali Fedotowsky, who bowed out of contention for Jake Pavelka on The Bachelor this winter, harbors major insecurities, says the show’s venerable host-pimp.

“Everyone brings their own kind of baggage to the show,” Harrison told Us Weekly over the weekend. “Ali [is] a girl that has in the past been hurt before.”

Ali and Chris

Chris Harrison debonairly escorts Ali Fedotowsky.

Harrison continued: “She really had this fear of almost being rejected. Like, ‘Yes, I’m going to fall in love, but really worried that I’m not going to get love back.’”

“Everyone has bones in the closet they have to deal with. Hers was ‘I’m going to put myself out there. I’m ready for love, but are these guys going to love me?’”

He declined to comment on The Bachelorette spoilers we’re all wondering about, but he did say this about the upcoming season: “There is a phenomenal ending.”

But is it a happy ending?

“I’ll say this: Ali had to make a very tough choice at the end, several tough choices, and I think she’s satisfied with how it ends and satisfied with her choice.”

Typical Bachelorette non-answer – they stopped writing material for Chris years ago. Not that we care – we’re counting down the days! We’re just saying though.

A former Food Network star has been arrested for cooking up a murder scheme. Chef Juan-Carlos Cruz, who hosted Calorie Commando on the popular culinary channel for two years, was taken into custody on May 13 for solicitation to commit murder after Santa Monica police unveiled his attempt to hire homeless men to kill an unidentified person. The troubled cook, married to high school sweetheart Jennifer Campbell, is being held at the Los Angeles County Jail on $5 million bail.

Kellan Lutz: Hot Underwear Model Alert!


There’s a chance that Kellan Lutz might not appear in the final installment of The Twilight Saga. He and Ashley Greene are holding out for a major salary bump.

Why does this bother movie fans so much? In two words: Look. Below.

At Macy

The hunky actor appeared at a Macy’s in New York City this weekend to show off his body and his new gig as a spokesman for Calvin Klein.

If anyone in Hollywood knows how to wear a white t-shirt better than Lutz, we haven’t met him yet…

Delonte West: Nailing Jumpers, LeBron James’ Mom?


Is it possible that the most surprising move of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ season wasn’t superstar LeBron James quitting in Game 5 against the Celtics, but Delonte West’s amorous moves on LeBron’s mom, Gloria James, in the sack?

That’s the rumor going around!

This unsubstantiated gossip has circulated for days, and no reputable sources have reported it, but people continue to search for details on reports that Gloria James, mother of LeBron, is sleeping with his teammate and friend Delonte West.

Whether it’s true or not is anyone’s guess. On one hand, it’s preposterous … on the other, who can resist a couple of HOT neck tattoos?

Is LeBron James’ mom Gloria sleeping with Delonte West?

Who started this rumor? West himself, angry because he doesn’t get enough playing time? An irate Cavs fan bitter that James may leave via free agency? A delusional Cleveland supporter looking for an excuse for his team’s early playoff exit?

Speaking of his impending free agency: Where will LeBron end up?

In Touch Exclusive:Pam Anderson and Kate Gosselin are BFFs!


On this season of Dancing With the Stars, celebrity competitors Pamela Anderson and Kate Gosselin battled it out on — and according to some reports, off — the dance floor. However, the former Baywatch babe insists they became best buds on the show, and their friendship is still going strong. “Kate was great. We text all the time!” Pamela told In Touch at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods’ 2nd Anniversary Celebration in Connecticut on May 15. And, hopefully, the two working moms can be reunited for the dance competition show’s season finale on May 24 and 25. Kate’s definitely planning on making a return. “There better be one more dance left in me,” the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star wrote on her official TLC blog.

Miss USA Rima Fakih: Stripper Pole Champion!


Years before she became the first Muslim-American to win the Miss USA crown, Rima Fakih won another prestigious title – “Stripper 101″ pole dancing champion!

Back in 2007, the sexy, newly-minuted beauty pageant queen dominated a stripper contest for local Detroit radio morning show called Mojo in the Morning.

Forget the prizes won last night. Rima Fakih earned fabulous prizes for the stripper victory: “jewelry, gift cards, adult toys and a stripper pole for home use.”

Top that, Donald Trump!

In case Miss USA Rima Fakih needs a career to fall back on

But, lest we start thinking this ranks with Tara Conner and Carrie Prejean scandals in Miss USA lore, it’s not even close. She was clothed during all pole riding.

Just the same, you can see the polished form she has, and the natural managed to walk away with a bra stuffed with dollar bills … those are some nice tips!

Tiger and Elin Woods: Not on Speaking Terms


Tiger Woods and wife Elin are no longer speaking to each other, according to new reports that cite no named sources, but are probably believable anyway.

Both have hired divorce lawyers and things have gotten so bad that the couple uses intermediaries to communicate, a source close to both of them claims.

She’s fighting for the kids in private, but tries to keep their children protected from their deteriorating marriage. Thus, Tiger and Elin refrain from arguing.

They also refrain from speaking to one another, period.

“Elin has the nannies take the children back and forth,” one source said regarding how the children are moved to and from Tiger and Elin Woods’ homes.

Elin moved out of the home they shared and into a rented house about a mile away. One of Tiger’s employees goes over logistics and schedules with her.

Catch a TigerElin Thuggin

Relations between Tiger and Elin Woods? Not exactly cordial.

“They’ve had no conflict over the kids but they’ve also had no contact,” the source said. “Elin Woods has made it very clear this is the way she wants it.”

Elin stopped going into Tiger’s house when dropping off the children, and now has their nannies take the children from house to house during the day.

“They don’t speak anymore,” the source said, noting that the relationship is growing worse. “Even on the rare times when they see each other in person.”

Elin has taken four trips away from Tiger in the past several weeks, including one to her native country (she’s rumored to be moving to Sweden for good).

She stopped putting out a while ago too.

When Tiger announced his return to golf, Elin believed he wasn’t sincere about changing his life. Prior to that, it appeared the marriage could be saved.

Despite the fact that both sides have lawyers and barbs have already been traded in the looming split, there has been no Tiger Woods divorce filing. Yet.
