Photoshoots
According to GossipCop:
“Robert Pattinson poses with an alligator on the April 2011 cover of Vanity Fair, Gossip Cop is told.
Legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz shot pics of the superstar for the mag’s cover story, which is tied to the release of Pattinson’s upcoming film Water for Elephants.
As for the four-foot reptile, Pattinson’s alligator pal is a nod to the Louisiana set of Breaking Dawn.”
Dear Lord help us …





Vertigo
*runs out to buy* paper bags in prep of the unveiling.
Sare
What’a an alligator got to do with Louisiana or BD? *imclueless*
It’ll be hot though 🙂
Maria
Seriously @Sare – Louisana is alligator country
Maria
Sorry @Sare I should have said it’s their State reptile – I’m sure our US followers will confirm
caro
he never fails to surprise us, does he..
Sare
I said i was clueless Maria! lol
Cindy
I am so loving that hat!! 😉
Maria
LOL sorry @Sare – what can I say I retain useless trivia.
Agree @caro with Rob we need to expect the unexpected – I love that about him.
Vicky
Oh my, posing with an alligator!!!! Any hope of a productive day has well and truly flown out the window!!!
Vertigo, i’ve already got the paper bags from last time. I bought in bulk LOL!!!
Maria
@Vicky the mind boggles – only productivity for me is trying to guess as to the pose – in the water, straddling *praystoGod*, profile shot looking at it eye to eye – I’m sure the alligator would have been putty in his hands …
Vicky
Oh God Maria you’re not helping me LOL!!! Any or all of those options (although I do like the straddling) would work for me!!! Somebody definitely turned the heat up in my office *continueswithfanning*.
Cindy
Oh stop it @Maria and Vicky! LOL!! Just as bad as saying”RMB” to me ya know!!
lids
OMFG!!!! I just hope nobody here at work saw me drool and collapse in a heap…
this is definitely going to be an epic year for Rob @Maria, and you girls are killing me here with all your fantasies….how am I supposed to do any work???
Maria
@lids I don’t like to suffer alone. Vertigo & Michelle are at work – Michelle has no access – she doesn’t know about the alligator yet although I’ve sent her a message. Lise-Lou is probably just waking up and doesn’t even know these have surfaced yet – I have to come and play with all of you.
Hahaha sorry @Cindy – but all I can now think about is that cheeky sideways glance Rob does sometimes – and hope he’s looking at the alligator like that – unless of course he’s straddling – then I want the lip bite
Oh crap why did I even bother coming to work today – no seriously
Cindy
Oh for gods sake!!@Maria show me some mercy please you wicked women….*THUD* slides slowly to the floor fantasing about alligators hot sideways glances and lip bites….
ephie
“Dear Lord Help Us” is definitely the right thing to say here. Oh and “Lord Have Mercy” when those alligator shots come through…I like all your scenarios @maria they would all be fine by me.
Aaaand…doesn’t he look just delectable and delicious and gorgeous and divine in that hat?
Maria
Yes @ephie I tweeted this morning that Rob sure knows how to rock a hat – any hat. He is pure BLISS. It’s really funny because I stepped outside this morning at about 6.20 am and the morning was so crisp and fresh (my fave time of the morning) – I just had this serene and happy thoughts wash over me and immediately thought of Rob – strange story but true – and then I logged on.
lids
LOL @maria, I know you don’t like to suffer alone, so your inflicting you pain on all of us.
The only problem is, we like it so much we keep coming back for it “stockholm syndrome”, isn’t it…
I still have heart palpitations, I better get the defib going.
Maria
LMAO @lids re “Stockholm Syndrome” hahaha – can you imagine what is going to happen to us when he does a shoot or we see stills/set pics from Cosmopolis. Seriously there must be so many photographers clamouring to take his photo – he’s just perfection. Campbell Mitchell who took Rob’s photos for Summer House told me that it’s impossible to take a bad photo of Rob. I have to agree with him 100% – there’s no way I’m going to argue with a professional.
Vertigo
Stop it you guys, none of this is helping!
Maria
@Vertigo – Rob’s been kind enough to bring us some snow to cool us down – he knows what he’s doing *giggles*
Vicky
Sorry Cindy but you know we all have to share these things!!!!
We’re all lost causes when it comes to Rob, that’s never going to change!!!
ephie
Yes @maria “Pure Bliss”…sigh…
haha “stockholm syndrome”
Don’t even go there @maria about Cosmopolis photoshoot, that will be something else – in its own league altogether.
I would NEVER argue with a professional either @maria especially about Rob LOL!
I can’t wait for the pics to come out and the outtakes – I hope there will be A LOT of outtakes….please Annie, pretty please…
Maria
Me too @ephie re outtakes – yeah Annie c’mon click click click and it better not be one for me one for fans LOL (although if it was me I’d be saying – oh just a few more you need to get back in the water – sorry @lise-lou but I just refuse to believe there are no water shots with Annie wearing that outfit). Sorry am rambling – I blame today and Rob.
ephie
No you are not rambling @maria, just voicing what all of us are thinking. Just imagine though what it must be like looking at him through the photo lens…oh my…lucky lucky Annie lol!
She is such a phenomenal photographer I am sure it will be a stunning one-of-a-kind photo shoot.
lise-lou
Rob..in…the..water…….
*_________________________*
Vertigo
What did I say before? Lol This is all too much.
Yes Rob in the water … and he can leave his hat on! That is if he wants to. 😀
Michelle
OMG Rob with an alligator *______________________________*
We need to see these pics – NOW!! I cannot wait to get my hands on this mag & OMG just imagine the outtakes. SO good to be home & able to see these gorgeous pics again. I cannot say enough how much I LOVE Rob in that hat!!
Martha M
God I’ve missed so much. I was in meetings all day long, then went out to dinner with some friends. Maybe it was a good thing, because there is no way in hell I would have been able to concentrate, or get anything done, after seeing these pics. @Maria the alligater is Louisiana’s state reptile. And if any of you girls can’t get VF let me know, I’ll get it for you. There’s no way you can deprive youselves of that, I won’t let you. Thank you so much Maria for all this exciting news and for posting these gorgeous pictures. I can only imagine what the final pictorial will look like. AMAZZING *squeeeee*!!! I’m so wired up I don’t think I’ll be getting any sleep tonight. But then again when do I?
Maria
Thanks @Martha M re alligator being State reptile – I knew I had that somewhere in the back of my mind – after all it’s swamp central! If they have them in Florida they most certainly have them in Louisiana. I wondered where you were all day. Have you seen that hat? 😀
Michelle
Thank you SO much for your kind offer Martha M – so sweet of you & we so appreciate it 😀
Vicky
Thanks for that Martha. You have so much to catch up on!!
mema
the hat the wink the black jacket he know what he is doing to us, he said in his mined (i will give my girls something to look for it ,and if my girls r happy so do i )
so girls r u happy like he think ?
Martha M
@Maria I sure did see that hat. And I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again he looks gorgeous in what ever he wears. And ladies I really did mean what I said about the mag. If anyone of you can’t get it don’t hesitate in letting me know. We’ll think of something, on how I will get it to you. I don’t want you girls missing out if you don’t have to. @Vicky I sure did have a lot of catching up, it’s so exciting to see what I had missed and boy did I miss a lot. I feel lot I’ve been gone forever.
Martha M
I meant to say I feel like I was gone forever. I missed you all.
mema
me to Martha
Maria
oh yeah – what Michelle said @Martha M – yeah Michelle’s the polite one out of the two of us – sorry I was sidetracked with alligators. We usually get the US version one month after it’s released – fingers crossed.
I have to say I missed you too – I seriously thought at about 2.00 pm – where’s Martha!
Martha M
Awe Thanks Mema, you’re so sweet.
mema
Martha dear i don,t know if i can found it in Jordan if i don,t i will tell my uncle he live in California and thanks for ever thing
Martha M
@Maria no worries. And believe me the whole time I was in those meetings I kept thinking on what I was missing. So I wasn’t really concentrating, but If I would have seen these before, then for sure I would have been totally lost. My mind would have been on Rob & alligators. Well again let me know if you need the mag. Really don’t hesitate to ask. Wow March is such an excting month, my birthday month.
Martha M
Mema you’re welcome.
lise-lou
Aw thanks Martha, that’s so sweet of you. I have a really funny image of you coming out of your newsagents with a wheelbarrow full of VF mags and getting some stramge looks *giggles*
mema
which day Martha
Martha M
@Lisa-lou LOL. Ah they can look at me any way they want. I’m saving my girls from deprivement (is that even a word?), bringing joy, beauty, and smiles to them and that is so worth me pushing the wheelbarrow out.
Martha M

mema
