This post is going to stay as the first post on this page for a while.
I had originally posted this video with a few others I had made but I feel it deserves a post of it’s own.
I’ve been thinking about Rob recently and how all this craziness must be affecting him. The paps, the fans, etc… It’s hard to imagine what must be going through his head right now. The recent pics have shown us a sad Rob and no matter how many times people tell me “he’s just in character” I just don’t believe it. If you look back to the Italy pics he was also in character mode yet we would see alot more pics of a smiling Rob.
People too often forget that behind the actor is a real person. A person who has feelings like you & I. He is not an object, he is simply Rob.

Thinking of Rob 
So sad that someone has to lose part of themselves in the process of trying to give themselves. He just wanted to share his talent and it’s a shame that a portion of those that he wants to share it with are idiotic and selfish. It ruins it for fans and normal people when “fanatics” push someone to their limit. It’s “fanatics” that cause talented people to disappear and not share their God given rights with those that aren’t stalkerish and crazy. It’s hard to know everything that goes through someone’s mind, but body language says a lot.
Hat’s off to FP for putting it out there and speaking the truth. It needs to be said and understood. Sadly, I fear that the one’s that are doing it will never see that they are part of the problem. Because of this, everyone else will lose out eventually.
All I can do is hope that things get better with time,and the fanatics figure out that they don’t have to be out of control and that selfish. Hell, maybe if things die down and he can live normally, there could be more interaction. It’s a little hard to do open mic or talk with people when all everyone hears is screaming and idiocracy.
And to those out there that do know how to act right, keep calling out those that are causing the problems, otherwise, they will never see it!!!

Great comment!
This makes me sad. I know exactly the way he feels. I hate crowds and have been paranoid my entire life. My professional degree has provided me the career I felt best suited for, the career I wanted to make a difference in lives yet when I stand in front of a crowd on an everyday basis it is super hard to deal with. Sometimes I live from minute to minute just to get through it.
I absolutely adore Rob Pattinson and I hate seeing him go through this. I wish so badly that he had someone to help him. Like most women, it would break my heart to see him with “another woman” lol but someone needs to brighten his life. It’s hard enough dealing with the intense fear and stress, but doing it alone must be unbearable. My heart goes out to RPattz, I hope he decides to do what’s best for him and if that means stopping this career in order to be happy then I think that’s what he should do. I just want to see him smile, really smile.
Great blog, great video, though sad to watch. Thanks for making it! I hope you’ve posted it everywhere Rob’s fans lurk, especially On Location Vacations. He has to sacrifice some pretty important aspects of his former life to gain the career he wants. I don’t think he knows what else he could do for a living, so I’m sure in some ways he feels a bit trapped. I’m trying to think back to when Brad Pitt exploded but can’t seem to recall there being this big of a stink over him. I wish him all the best and look forward to seeing him grow as an actor.
I haven’t posted the video on On Location Vacation. I don’t have an account on there. But I do know it’s been posted on Spunk Ransom.
Seriously, this video makes me sad enough to cry. I think that celebs do sign on for picture taking – to a point. At premieres, etc – then they’re in the public eye, promoting things, whatever. That his entire life should be so changed just makes me so sad. I worry that the Rob we all love will just turn into a paranoid mess or freak out entirely. 😦
Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!! You nailed my feelings and sentiments exactly!
From the little I know of Rob, it is obvious he is such a talented and lovely person. Its so sad to watch him suffer and try to deal with all this madness. As you clearly illustrated through his very own words, this is so much harder on him than just the average celebrity. I wish fans would realize this and respect this aspect of his personality. Give him the space he needs.
I truly fear that at some point he is just going to implode from all the stress. I worry he’s either going to completely disappear or he’s going to have some Joaquin Phoenix nervous breakdown. Either way, we will all be missing out on a truly unique and special talent. We will have no one to blame but ourselves.
I’m so grateful that he has such an amazing group of friends that are so grounded and that he knew before the fame. He knows he can trust these people and their intentions. Something he will have to question with every new person he meets. Hopefully these old friends will be able to pull him through and give him the support and encouragement he needs in all the madness.
Hopefully after all the Twilight craziness is over, yes in years from now, things will calm down as those fans get older, more mature, more respectful. Then he can resume a ‘normal’ level of celebrity without the crazy. And hopefully he will retain that special ‘Robness’ in the process…his kindness, humor, and self deprecating charm.
Thanks FP for putting this out there!!! It needed to be done.
Oh FP,
I am having a hard time watching them film RM. I can visibly see Rob stressed. The hand in the hair, the rare if any smile, the coffee.
I am so sad that he has to endure this.
I mean these people are WORKING. Fan girls screaming constantly DOES NOT help anyone. And the papps…
And what about the other actors in the movie. Emilie ? Pierce ? Chris ? The little girl ? How can they concentrate with all the nonsense around them…
I am so afraid for Rob that he would just disappear one day…I don’t want him to go. I am so waiting for RM to be over and Eclipse to start. It breaks my heart to see the stress visibly on his face. It is so apparent. He is not enjoying this at all.
In Vancity the entire cast of Twilight seems to have a measure of freedom and a normal life. Like going out together and having fun. Maybe Rob does not have the same support system that he has with the cast of twilight.
I just HATE,HATE, HATE what is happening to him in NY.
Thanks FP…It needed to be said….
❤ U
I know… I’m afraid of the same thing…
From what I hear though Eclipse will not be a closed set like New Moon was 😦
FP,
David Slade who is the director of Eclipse is already on fan’s black list because of his stupid twitter about Twilight. He apologized.
The set better be closed…Any nonsense like RM and Summit will hear from me….
ONTD posted not too long ago that it was going to be an open set.
I don’t want him to disappear. No one does. Gaaaaaaaah. Rabid fan girls and papz please control yourselves. 😦
And yes, he does seem to be so stressed out. I just want to hug him so. 😦
It broke my heart when you quoted him saying that he lost a huge chunk of his life (referring to playing at open mic bars)… It seems that he really did sacrifice a lot of things to be able to get to where he is now. Of course it’s part of the deal… but it may be too much for him already. And instead of having fans that support him, he has RABID fans who mob him. 😦
I feel bad for him, I want to be able to support and comfort him. I honestly want to be his friend… but of course that’s really not possible now is it… All I can do is just pray for his safety and for his sanity.
I really hope that he gets a much needed vacation, a break from all the craziness in his world now. I also hope that all this craziness doesn’t make him regret getting into hollywood and in turn push him away.
I hope that his coping mechanisms are healthy ones… *sigh* I don’t want him to resort to anything that can be detrimental to his being. 😦
Oh dear Rob, I’m sorry for all the insanity surrounding you now. Please know that there are fans who love you genuinely and respect you for who you are. We appreciate your willingness to share yourself with us and we would like to do everything in our power to keep you on doing so…
