    I think Rob would have been better off getting dragged into the salon by a gay hairdresser than surrounded by killer rabid fans.

    The only thing the hairdresser would have done was paw his hair and ask him if he wanted anything to drink.

    Gay hairdresser = SAFE!
  • Robs_Other_Wife
    IRONICALLY, I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU. I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED. YOU KNOW, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT GAYS CAN FIGHT.... I THINK ROB WOULD DO BETTER WITH SOME GAY BODY GUARDS THAN HE WOULD REGULAR MEN WHO DON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT HIM. GAY PEOPLE DON'T CARE AND THEY WILL SLAP THE HELL OUT OF ANYONE THEY THINK IS GETTING TOO CLOSE... MY HUSBAND SAYS THAT HE REFUSES TO PISS OFF A GAY MAN BECAUSE ITS LIKE FIGHTING UFC FIGHTER, YOUR SISTERS, AND YOUR FIRST GRADE TEACHER ALL AT THE SAME TIME.....LMAO.....
  • Sparks_TeamPellan
    LMAO!!
  • Kimoppi
    I just roared with laughter... enough for my boyfriend to come into the room and find out what happened.
  • MissNay
    Um, I don't know how to say this so I'm just gonna lay it out there. That dude was..dare I say it..........super cute.

  • WetDishRag (AKA deedee81)
    Hey Nicnix! I can't watch the video can you?
  • bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
    Me neither. Blimmin' MTV vids don't work outside the US. GRRR!

    I think you might need to chase them with the wet dish rag, Dee!
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    Is there no conversion I could do on my end to enable you to see it. OHhhhhhhh, just had an idea!

    We could Skype and I could play it so you can hear it!!!!!!!

    Call me!
  • bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
    Genius! Thanks OE. :D

    I loved the bit at the end where he said, 'If I'd have known it was him, I would have dragged him into the salon!' LOL
  • WetDishRag (AKA deedee81)
    I'm on it *runs at executives of MTV with the dish rag soaking* LOL
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    *Curtsies and places hand on heart*

    Feel better Nic, I'll do my best to cheer you up in between washing my oven and cleaning the floors.

    I'm having a Cinderella day today - and that's not the kind where the prince finds my shoe and whisks me off to the palace and I never have to do another dish as long as I live.

    "Paging Prince Charming, we need a clean up on aisle 4"
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee

  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    OME... I must say hehe... that gay hairdresser is awesome.. he SHOULD have grabbed my Rob and pulled him into the safety of his salon... geezz!! Lol... I would have really preferred my sweetie pie to be in there than scared to death (God, forbid) by the crazies.... ugggg.. those damn crazies piss the HALE out of me... be carefuly sweetie pie.. I can't be there just yet to protect you so you'll have to do your best to be safe =(
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    I can't see the video :) But i'm sort of happy about that....

    If i hear one more depressing thing about Pattinson...i will lose the will to live....it's so sad....

    We ALL agree!!!.....GIVE the man some space to breathe..........CALM the HELL down fangirls........TRY to be respectfull when he is FILMING....and just CHILL OUT for the love of God.....

    The internet is here for ALL your stalking needs....there is no cause to be bothering Pattz in the flesh EVER :)

    Unless he is at a convention (which is probably going to be when hell freezes over at this rate!!!)

    Nicnixs
  • Well said honey!
    Agree with every word

    Sax
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    Hey Sax :)

    I keep passing you and missing you :) lol I was going to be online last night...but as soon as i got home from work i passed out cold on the sofa :) lol xx
  • I wasn't online either -0 I was a Moonwalk driver through the night so had
    to go to bed very early!
    So no NMM for me or I woulkd never had made it through the night!
  • WetDishRag (AKA deedee81)
    So you cant view it, I should really scroll down to read further comments! LOL

    You know I can really see him not doing the American comic-con, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he pulled out!
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    :) Hey Deedee

    Nope i can't see it :) And god who would want to be there if he did...you'd be trampled to death by nut cases lol
  • bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
    Go see the new post where he's smiling. Something must have cheered him up after his tough week... Frolicking on the beach with Emilie, perhaps?

    **hides behind the couch from Robsten fans**
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    I hope there is a smiley one :) Or I'm just gonna start skipping Rob posts lol :) I'm skipping off to look :)
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    Skype me later. I just played it for Bean and it worked!
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    I'm still not in the land of skype :(

    Yesterday was my first day out of bed...and i had to come to work :( I was still feeling pretty ill....so passed out as soon as i got home and missed out on being on line last night lol
  • Kiwi_sparkle
    I'm the same - can't see it but read the comment below with the rundown of it all.... what a crappy situation to be in! Totally agree with you nicnixs and no one can enjoy the rest of the Twilight saga if one of the main characters has been seriously hurt or killed trying to get away from a bunch of nutters! Ok, maybe extreme, maybe not but yeah... he's a human being, not Edward Cullen and strong like marble! Poor guy! No wonder actors feel trapped in hotel rooms or on their properties unable to have a decent life outside their security zones!
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    Hmmm...yeah...

    I don't grudge him his money....So not worth it :) Hope your out today Kiwi :) x
  • Kiwi_sparkle
    I guess that's why actors get paid so well - not only do they have to keep up appearances (well, some of them) but also their lifestyle takes a toll as far as being themselves and security....

    Yep, on and off. Still on the net via the tv setup cos the keyboard on the main computer is rather sad... it's no longer sticky but something beeps the whole time the computer is switched on so I'm guessing it's screwed or hubby needs to dry it in front of the fire a bit longer! I should hang it off the washing line in the wicked sunshine we have today! LMAO!!!
  • Hyper-nixs - Squeeeeeeee
    LOL I need a laptop :) I really want to be able to surf in bed :) It would just be so much better :)

    Have you tried using a hair dryer on it :) Lol
  • Kiwi_sparkle
    That was my suggestion but I got looked at like I was mad... this from the hubby hosing the keyboard at the time! It spent the night upside-down on the floor in front of the fire to drain.... mad mad mad people we are! LOL
    We also have a laptop - not to sound too geeky! LOL - but it's been designated as a "work computer" for hubby so I'm not impressed.... I get the huckery old box in the office! Nice...
  • Jackie
    Poor Rob. He shouldn't have to go through all of this.
  • Jackie
    That guy they interviewed was funny. "I would have dragged him into the salon!" lmao
  • twilight saga fever!

  • Avital
    As much as I love Rob I think it's funny and I bet he'd have laughed too! He seems like the kind of person who would look back and laugh at this kind of stuff.
  • miranda [team slade brigade]
    this is awful! :(
  • C2
    His world totally changed. Poor him. It should be very hard to confront all of this.
    I mean, come on, crazy fans almost killed him...
  • Sparks_TeamPellan
    would love to watch it...but cant. bloody mtv
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    They are very prejudiced. Oh, don't live in America? NO RPATTZ NEWS FOR YOU!
    I am suffering here, in Canada.... I need RPATTZ news too..
  • Sparks_TeamPellan
    Tell about it.
    MTV: We have some Rob news, wana hear it? Whats that? You don't live in America?!?! Nooooooooooo you cant have it!! haaa haaa haaa!! Suffer!
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    Haha, pretty much.
    They probably watch our reactions and laugh in their secret lairs...
    Evil villians, I say!
  • Twilight_Rox - Team Leg Hitch
    That's so weird, I live in Europe, and I never have a problem with seeing clips from MTV. Why is that? Is it just some countries?
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    Where in Europe are you?
    Directly from the American MTV site?
  • Twilight_Rox - Team Leg Hitch
    I'm in Sweden. Yeah, I can watch videos directly from their website, it has never been a problem.
  • EatMeRob
    Yeah, same here except i'm in australia and i can watch too.
  • breesmom
    Guys are so funny! He just couldn't understand all the commotion.
  • spunkie
    its so mean thats they would do that
  • spunkie
    he was funny why else would girls chase 1 guy
  • Ash4Rob
    CAN someone tell me wat he said?? stupid mtv wont let me! thankyou wud grtly appreciate it!!
  • jgrey
    Not word for word but basically he said....

    That he works in a near by salon from where they were filming and he heard a bunch of girls screaming and went to peak outside and saw a ton of girls surrounding a guy who had a few bodyguards. 20 min. or so later, he heard something happen and went out again and someone said that Rob Pattinson was hit by a taxi and the body guard was yelling at the girls, "see what you did, you almost killed him!" He said it wasn't a big deal being NY city because people do get hit by taxicabs (not uncommon)... Then he said he wished he had known it was Rob in the first place, because he would have gotten his autograph or at least dragged him into the salon.
  • Ash4Rob
    thnku!!
  • Goldeneyes4ever
    THANK YOU!!! :D
  • Enya
    Thanks a mill!
  • Edward's Brunette
    What an idiot, he would have gotten an autograph?? That was his first thought. The second thought was oh, helping him get away from the crazy fans?

    I hope Robert's hip feels ok today.

    His body guards need to step up their game. Maybe Rob should hire Snoop Doggs body guards, they are HUGE!
  • EdwardsVenom/RobsBoxerBriefs
    Yeah, I wasn't too impressed with the guys commentary. He didn't actually see IT happen...just the girl banshee's comin' for Rob. What the hell was up with him wanting an autograph? He's just as psycho as those girlies!
    Sad, pathetic and not worth his minute or so of fame.

    I will say this..
    I thought for sure with all the wacko's comin' for Rob that day that one of them would have had pics or video of the incident with the cab.
  • Edward's Brunette
    You would think. Any other time there are cameras everywhere.

    I don't really want to see him get hurt, but a video would prove it was the crazy fans, unlike what Summit said.

    Poor Rob they said he was stunned for a moment, his life probably flashed before his eyes.

    I am so glad the cab just clipped him, it could have been so much worse,
  • spunkie
    is an account on this websit free
  • kerbear585
    yes
  • kerbear585
    I would have been scared for him seeing all the crazy fans yelling and chasing him and causing him to get clipped by a taxi. Poor guy. I mean this is why most movies are done in a closed down set building...like how the CW is....that way no one will get hurt by fans and stuff.
  • ok get ready for a RANT peeeps .....

    ok this is soooo stupid .....please fans show some respect towards robert pattison....... i know we all love him and all but COME ON that is no excuse for almost having him really hurt .......fans please dont give us other twilighters a bad name .....for goodness sakes we are now all looney tunes crazy ok ........so please show some respect for robert , yourself and all the twilighters out there and be more respectful of others personal space especially roberts ....
    THANK YOU :D
  • JCullen81
    These young freaks don't understand what respect means... so I purchased an electric cattle prod and UPS'd it to Rob this morning, since Summit doesn't feel the need to provide better bodyguards.
  • mak1026
    So which story is true? This guy sounds like he's reading from RadarOnline cue cards, Summit says it wasn't the fans, and another so called eyewitness said it was only a few girls and an idiot pap.

    Any way you look at it, the results could have been disastrous. I really feel for the guy. Is fame really worth losing your basic freedoms?
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    I thought that too. It sounded like he memorized what Radaronline reported and just conveniently worked close by to where it happened. Faker!!!!
  • unicorn glow(vampire_vixen)
    i was watching this saying wow; radar was so right..i never believe anything that radar says; but come to think of it; it seems like ole boy here is reading from radaronline report...or he could be telling the truth.. well; as long as pattinson is fine; thats all our concerns
  • I REALLY CANT WAIT 4 NEW MOON ITS LIKE I WILL DIE WITH OUT IT.
  • Leslie
    Gosh! This is getting WAYYYYY out of hand.
    Leave*sob* Rob Pattinson*sob* Alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Hahahahahaha
  • JennaHeartsJacob
    drag him into the salon to do what???? cut his hair??? after he got hit by that taxi??? ok, haha
  • well after what those stupid fans caused the least they could've does was leave poor ROBBIE there.... i mean at that moment they didn't if he was really hurt or not... and well i think the bodyguard/bodyguards instead of screaming to the crazies he should've paid more attention to Rob... i mean it was done already he really couldn't do anything else....well i guess that's my opinion.... but i also get that he couldn't jux not say anything to them.... im confused myself.... sorry if this doesn't make sense
  • HPFangirl71
    That would suck being that close to Rob and not realizing it!! *giggles*
  • PhoenixMP3 ~ Mrs. Cudmore
    damn it MTV what is it with you and selective transmissions in the UK. I can't see this. Can someone tell me what it is about, please?

    hhhaaaa MTV the bain of my life sometime.
  • Kasiii.Rob's.Cupcake.Pants
    lol. who wouldn't like to drag him into there salon or anywhere. anyday.

    i would save him from all these psycho girls.
  • MaxineA
    Ugh, hate MTV. Can't view it outside the US.
    What do they say?
  • Kim1524 (Fanfic Junkie)
    Damn MTV and their copyright crap!!
  • Natty
    it doesn't work in the UK.
    can some pleeease tell me what it says?
    i want to see if it was bad :(
    loveyourab(:
    xxx
  • suresure
    wow. i knew the fans were obsessed but stupid? not all of them at least.. i hope... the guy said some girls were screaming at the cab saying YOU ALMOST KILLED HIM!! lmao i started laughing when he said that because the fans r so dumb! it was the cab's fault? lol yeah RIGHTT.... it was the crazy fans that basically pushed him into the path of the car! geez these people make us real fans look so bad....do you see me pushing celebrities into the street? nOOOO....
  • ROB'S MA KINDA MAN!
    I totally agree (suresure) these idiot girls put him in danger, and basically just screwed over our reputation. Now because of what happened to him he will always be doubtful about his fans, even the good ones who respect him due to the stampede of immature lil horn dogs.....
  • Kimoppi
    How are they even able to film anything with all these screaming fans every two second? That was all the hairdresser could catch, was the noise.
  • JTSTeam Swiss
    lol, how did i miss this post this morning?

    WOW, nmm.org should totally hunt down more male fans of Rob!
    "I would have dragged him into the salon" lmao

    even this dude wants to touch the SEX HAIR!
  • Kiwi_sparkle
    I can't believe he didn't run out just to touch the hair!!! I'm an ex-hairdresser and I would love to run my fingers through it! I'm a shocker and just love a fab head of hair!!! LOL
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    I love how Summit tried to hush hush that this wasn't serious, thats BS. These little girls need to STOP yelling and scaring rob! Dam it! Do you hear me screamers? STOP! and grow up!
  • WOW! he is hot!
    happy freekin birthday Edward!
  • This is getting out of hand.

    I dont want this to turn into another Princess Diana incident.
    Running from paparazzi...

    Rob can easily get killed running from fans. :l
    He better not have any intoxicated body guards.
  • Don'tDrink&RunWithWoodenStakes
    Ok if he was an eyewitness...shoudn't he, well I don't know... witness it with his eyes haha.
    He didn't see anything, he just heard.

    But lol because he wanted to save our Rob...Yay for gay (I'm guessing) hairdressers haha

    And I'm happy that they are securing filming locations. I hope those incindents won't happen anymore.
  • Jackie
    people need to leve him alone so this does not happen to him again!!Who know next time he could get killed.Then we have no more of him and them they need to find someone els to plat Edward Cullen.
  • anen
    LOL The Trojan commercial before the clip was HILARIOUS anyone else saw that? xD
