Robert Pattinson, we’ll have you know, is not besties with Courtney Love.
This is news to us, and is something that was only confirmed in a weekend interview that Robert gave to The Daily Mirror.
Wait. What’s that? The two haven’t liked each other since Courtney said that glittery Robert wasn’t worthy to have licked Kurt Cobain’s boots, let alone play the late musician in a biopic? Oh, yeah. We’d forgotten.
The movie is currently in pre-production and there were hilariously passive-aggressive interviews with the Hole singer back in mid-April about its casting. Rather than do some kind of semi-professional bait-and-switch, when asked whether an actor she clearly doesn’t like would play the lead in the movie, she went on record as saying “Isn't that so stupid, who would cast him? That's just wrong, no offense?. Yeah, Robert. Oh, and you’re a horrid person who probably smells of poo. No offence.
The Daily Mirror interviewer has a better memory than anyone who works here – if we had been interviewing Robert, we would have just asked whether the body glitter ever got stuck in unpleasant places and was it terribly hard to wash off. They, instead, asked about Courtney’s comments. He, like she, decided not to be particularly professional. He could have easily laughed her comments off, as it’s not like he’s below the singer’s crack-induced comments. However, he decided to stoop to her level.
Robert calls Courtney out, when asked directly about the movie.
Mirror: Is it true you're going to play Kurt Cobain in the Nirvana movie? Pattinson: 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 fuck! He's totally wrong for it?, and I'm like, ?I fucking said no, you dick!? 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.
See what he did there? All that swearing and name calling. Terribly grown up and sophisticated. Those comments won’t come back to haunt him at all.
Wait, we just realised – Courtney was lucky to escape with her life after insulting one of the Twilight clan. Robert’s fans probably couldn’t stop continuously urinating long enough to cause the 46-year-old actual bodily harm. The second his dedicated army of 12-year-olds works out that they can stop weeing at will, whenever they want, Courtney should probably start sleeping with one eye open.

Even if Courtney Love did say those things, well it’s expected. She’s a damaged individal. I don’t know if Rob said anything back, but I would hope he’d have enough class to just ignore it, or at least think it was funny.

Why in the Hell can’t people just leave Robert Pattinson alone. He is a very talented person who is taking everything this Industry has to throw at him with a level head and still, he had managed to keep it all in perspective. His attitude toward his life, personal and professional is well above most of the other celebs that choose to ruin their careers with poor choices. Don’t considers rumors and the he- said she-said crap for fact until you hear ir from Rob’s own mouth.

I almost want Robert pattinson and Kristen stewart to have children. Those kids would have the dirtiest mouths in their pre-school. Their whole vocabulary would would consist of “fuck” “twat” “piss” “motherfucker” “shit” “dick” and “cunt fucker”. :P
He shouldnt of even commented on Courtney Love. Now the bitch is going to write an entire blog ranting about him.
mer says
RP must be very tired of crack head Courtney Love taking pot shots at him cause he just doesn’t seem the type to care what a low life like her would think or say. Who gives a crap about her druggie husband or her? When no one goes to her stupid movie, she’ll wish she had BEGGED Robert Pattinson to be in it. It’s the only chance she has that anyone will go see it. I just feel so sorry for her daughter. I can only imagine the things that poor girl has had to endure with such a disgusting person as CL for a mother! At any rate, I wish RP wouldn’t give her the satisfaction of a response. He’s so far above replying to anything that loser has to say.
boohoo says
The Daily Mirror? Oh yeah, very reliable source.
Emma says
Are you talking about Rob? Ha, he might just have Mel Gibson’s weakness. What makes you think that the above words did not come from his mouth?
Just because he is a male? If it was a woman actress you would blindly belive it, am I right?
Worst “gossips”than that are circulating about this holy man.
Val says
If you read the whole article – it seems to me he is talking about the people who repeatedly wrote false stories about him – not Courtney. He is calling them names not her.
Ebent says
They don’t leave him alone because he is a complete douche and he is a faggot.
f.off says
Right, because playing the sex card doesn’t look TOTALLY random, out of place and uncalled for. What is it with some women like you and ALWAYS wanting to create female victimhood out of EVERYTHING?
Mithaearon says
RObert Patterson is a untalented tosser that should in no way be used in the same sentance as Kurt Cobain or Courtney Love.
Ransomfan says
Yeah uh, Amy grindhouse what is it with you and your urinating, and weeing comments all the time? Find something else to use for those poor teenagers that are in-love with RP. I don’t know like, maybe you can say he does make them wet, but puhleeze not with the piss anymore! People will get the idea… say they are turned on, they are panting for him, they are crazy for him, anything else, but no more peeing, okay?
Mithaearon, it sounds like you wouldn’t know talent if it slapped you in the face! Robert Pattinson is oh so talented, both in acting and in music! I mean have you ever even heard him sing? Please take the time now to go and hear him on YouTube and then you can talk about his talent okay? He is awwwsomeee!
just me says
Robert Pattinson’s dedicated army of 12-90-year-olds doesn’t actually care what the full of silicon b** thinks of him period.
