Robert’s Lips Make a Mint

May 22nd, 2009

A kiss on the hand can be quite continental, but is a kiss on the cheek from Robert Pattinson worth thousands?

 

Apparently two proud papas thought so during the amfAR benefit in Cannes last night, as they shelled out some pretty serious dough to earn their daughters the right to have those highly-prized lips grace their faces.

 

E! News reports that Harvey Weinstein joked onstage about his daughters going gaga for R-Patts and changing their names to Pattinson after seeing him in Twilight. 

 

"Harvey then suggested auctioning off an opportunity for someone’s daughter to meet and get a kiss on the cheek from Pattinson," a fellow partygoer tells E!. "There were two bidders who paid 20,000 euros each for their daughters to have that kiss."

Do the math, vampire-lovers… that’s $55,000 total!

 

"Harvey put him on the spot, in a playful way," the source says. "And Rob agreed to it in his usual brooding, modest way."

Paris’ Swedish Meatball

September 25th, 2007

Looks like Paris Hilton has a new fall accessory — and instead of some high-end boutique on Robertson Blvd., she might as well have picked this one up at Ikea!

His name is Alex Vaggo, and despite the aristocratic good looks, the 22-year-old is no Mr. Moneybags. In fact, according to a report in the New York Post’s Page Six, Alex was staying at a low-rent Hollywood hostel when he met the Simple Life starlet, who has taken such a shine to the stud that she brought him along with her to the Big Apple, where Ms. Hilton attended the AmFar Rocks charity event at the historic Puck Building.

And while Paris walked the red carpet alone, OK! spied Alex slinking in minutes later to spend the night by her side in the VIP area. Afterward, the twosome headed to Stanton Social where they enjoyed the tuna tartar roll, crab corn dog and quenched their thirst with Marquis Platinum. They continued onto nightclub Butter before finishing the evening at Runway. The new couple enjoyed the sounds of DJ Chachi, staying at Runway until well after closing time.

“They spent the entire night dancing," one club-going witness reveals to OK!. "When the DJ played Paris’ song, she jumped on the banquette and started dancing.”

Let’s see if this could-be-a-model ends up a keeper for Paris.
