Honor Turns To Shame For Robert Pattinson

November 4th, 2008 / Author: OK! Staff

On Tuesday Nov. 4., Robert Pattinson must have been wishing he had superhuman strength like his character in Twilight.
 
The 22-year-old actor was being honored at Planet Hollywood in NYC, where he was due to cast his hand-prints in cement, to be displayed alongside stars like Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

But a hold up before the ceremony meant that the mixture began to firm up before the

English actor, 22, made it to the stage.
 
When a mortified-looking Robert couldn’t make a big enough dent by resting his entire bodyweight on his palms, an equally mortified female assistant had to force each of his fingers individually into the block.

And while she awkwardly pressed down on his digits, poor Robert went increasingly red in the face — partly because of all the pushing, but mainly because hundreds of girls were watching him fail to make a mark in wet cement!

 

"Even before the disaster with the cement, you could tell he was quite shy in front of all the screaming girls," an onlooker told OK!, "but when that started to go wrong, I think he just wanted to curl up in a ball!"

Ah La La Lowe

November 2nd, 2008

Saturday night seemed more like a Sunday night to me this week, probably because everyone was suffering post-Halloween hangover, both literally and figuratively. Nonetheless, I motivated to head over to the Esquire House for the Hollywood Entertainment Museum’s Legacy Awards honoring brothers Rob and Chad Lowe and the cast of “Heroes.”

When we walked in the $12.5 million Hollywood Hills mansion outfitted as the ultimate bachelor pad I started by giving my friend Amber the tour – since I was there only a week before I had a pretty good lay of the land. When we were in my favorite room, the open-air ‘fitness room’ that consists of pretty much just a Jacuzzi and oversized exercise contraption, we were two of six people in the room – the others being Rob Lowe, a woman who had her back to us and two bodyguards. After I said, “Wow, Rob Lowe is gorgeous,” Amber informed me I’d make the remark loud enough to attract the attention of the security guards we pondered ‘Why would Rob Lowe have two security guys with him at the fairly intimate party anyway?” When the woman turned around and we realized it was Maria Shriver we realized the security wasn’t for him, they were for her.

A few minutes later we walked downstairs just as Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger walked in. Less than 24 hours after the governor made remarks about Barak Obama’s skinny legs, his wife was up on a podium to introduce the brothers Lowe saying her hair was still tangled ‘from being so teased from being Sarah Palin (for Halloween) last night.’ Imagine a political discussion in that household! Shriver went on to say being in the ultimate bachelor pad on a Saturday when she usually spends weekends at home with the kids made her feel like a Desperate Housewife.

When the Lowe brothers hit the stage Chad said something about at one time never wanting to walk in another person’s shadow but then relented that he’s happy to walk in Rob’s shadow, “My best friend, the person I love most in the whole world, my Hollywood Museum.” Sweet. The former husband of Hilary Swank also thanked his new girlfriend Kim. Rob followed by saying Chad’s accolades were “Better than getting the award” and said, “I would get my ass kicked in Dayton Ohio because acting was for sissies but I knew it’s what I really wanted to do.”

Maria Shriver: I Left the Baby in the Car!

October 23rd, 2008

Maria Shriver may be married to California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, but beyond her First Lady duties, she’s also a mother to Katherine, Christina, Patrick and Christopher, a job she’s wholly dedicated to.

 

"Raising children is an extraordinary achievement," she tells MomLogic.com. "The work we do as mothers with our own children and to mother others, I think, is the most valuable contribution we can make."

 

Even this Kennedy relative has her moments, however, admitting to her most embarrassing moment as a mother – leaving one of her kids in the car!

 

"I was driving my girls to a softball game…and they were late. I ran, parked the car and told them to jump out [and] run across the field. Then I parked the car, jumped out, ran to the field, got to my seat. I actually felt relaxed, why do I feel relaxed, this is weird, oh my god - I left the baby in the car!" she confesses. "Right away when I sat down I felt there’s something missing and it was the baby! I ran back across the street so fast. I was sobbing, crying. I was so horrified."

As for advice for the presidential hopefuls and their families, Mrs. Schwarzenegger has a few tips.

 

"The McCain children are sort of older, so I think that’s very different," she says. "I think the Obama children are young enough that perhaps right now they are enjoying it. I think the best advice I would give to either one of them is to try to keep your children out of it as much as possible. Try to allow them to become who they really are."

While You Were Sleeping

March 4th, 2008 / Author: cwillett

Don’t get in The Arnold’s way — or else! This past weekend Arnold Schwarzenegger was in Columbus, Ohio, for the Arnold Sports Festival, an annual bodybuilding competition named for The Governator, and made quite an exit. As he was checking out of his room at the Hyatt hotel, Arnold’s bodyguards scared fellow hotel patrons. "Get back against the wall! Stay against the wall! Do not move!” his bodyguards shouted at guests, reports Page Six. One brazen fan attempted to get Arnold’s autograph but to no avail.

 

From stripper to singer! Yesterday it was revealed that American Idol finalist David Hernandez used to take it all off at Dick’s Cabaret in Phoenix, Ariz., a mostly male strip club. Hernandez worked at the club for three years but quit in September 2007, most likely in anticipation of his Idol appearance. American Idol has yet to comment on Hernandez’ past and whether it would prevent him from competing.

Win or lose, Barack Obama will be back in New York on Thursday to attend a Broadway screening of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof directed by Debbie Allen. Obama and wife Michelle will be joined by close personal friend and campaigner Oprah Winfrey at the play, which stars Terrence Howard. Also sure to be with the presidential hopeful? A legion of Secret Service reps.
