“Water for Elephants director Francis Lawrence is a music video director of iconic proportions (he’s also our new #1 DILF). His resume is massive and includes Britney Spears‘ “I’m A Slave 4 U” and “Circus,”Justin Timberlake‘s “Rock Your Body” and “Cry Me a River” and Lady Gaga‘s “Bad Romance.” He also directed I Am Legend, which could be the name of his autobiography. Naturally we wanted to know if he’d be interested in turning one of Robert Pattinson‘s songs into a music video. He’s game — but for a price! His very sweet answer is above.
Lawrence, who we know best as @hibbits on Twitter, also told us how much he’s enjoyed the support he’s received from fans of Rob and the book via tweets. Clip below.”

As many of you know we were in New York City this weekend to cover the Water for Elephants Premiere. While we were there we toured some of the Remember Me filming locations. It was great to see all the places where filming had taken place even though the weather wasn’t on our side. We managed to visit the Pearl Street diner, Ground Zero, The Strand book store, Washington Square park (right in front of NYU where the scene where Tyler meets Emily is filmed). Unfortunately when we reached Central Park the weather turned really bad and we weren’t able to make it to the Alice and Wonderland Statue. Weather aside, we had a great time on the tour and met some great people.
At The Strand we were told the alley where Rob’s character, Tyler, is stacking books had to be entirely redone for filming as they wanted it to be historically accurate, therefore they redid their entire alley like it was back in 2001. They also told us that Rob fell quite a few times while filming the scene and that filming took 12 hours.
Here are our pics from the tour. If you were there with us chances are your picture is in the ones below.
**If you were there with us and have pics to share we’d love to add them!**
Here are some of our pics from the Water for Elephants red carpet in NYC. I’m not posting the ones with Rob as we’ve already posted those here but all the other actors as well as Rob’s family are in these ones. Enjoy!
