What the FRANKENJACKET?
Join us today as JenJadeEyes writes Rob to ask what in the HALE is up with that jacket from the People’s Choice Awards – xo, moon
Dear, dear Rob,
As a concerned fan, I’d like to ask you this: Have you suffered a brain injury on the set of Breaking Dawn? No? Because I saw pictures of what you wore to the People’s Choice Awards, and I think you can make a good case for Workman’s Compensation.
I obviously can’t break it down “Vanity Fair” style with the same panache that Moon and UC use, so I thought I’d break it down in the more traditional “journalistic” style. Just in case you DO have a brain injury, let me refresh your memory – journalists use the 5 “w’s” (who, what, when, where, why) and also “how”. Let’s begin!
WHO?
Well, you, obviously, although I’m pretty sure all your fans wish it hadn’t been.
It’s simple math… and fashion
WHAT?
I have a few theories on the jacket. My first thought was that it was a lab experiment gone horribly wrong, trying to combine a brown suede bomber jacket, a white “Members Only” jacket, and a pink satin jacket like the ones the Pink Ladies wore in “Grease”. Why would anyone do that? I can’t imagine, but if they were trying to, it would look like what you had on!My second thought was that the brown vinyl car interior jacket that you stole from your dad’s closet (I think it was christened BBJ for brown bubble jacket) has been missing for a while, and I think I know why now. You’ve been putting it out to stud, and selling the best jackets, keeping the runts of the litter for yourself. Last night you wore the Frankenjacket to honor BBJ, but I think it was more of a disservice.
Third thought, you bought a SkyMall pillow/jacket contraption. The suede part is the pillow, and the silky part is the case! What you forgot to remember is you TAKE THAT OFF after you leave the plane, you don’t wear it out, and you certainly don’t wear it out to a televised award show!
WHEN and WHERE?
When? Last night. In public, for heaven’s sake, and at the People’s Choice Awards! Now, no sane person would have chosen that jacket for you. Heck, they wouldn’t have chosen it for Justin Bieber as a punishment. Maybe one of the Jonas brothers…
Where did you THINK you were going, to a revival of “Grease”? Perhaps a Cher concert? The year 1984?
WHY?
Okay, having a shirt with the top button fastened makes me think you were wearing a tie earlier in the day. So I have a theory – you and TayTay were wearing the same outfit and it looked like you were going to expose your man love (although nothing tops the “Entertainment Weekly” cover for that) and so you took of your tie and suit coat and decided to wear something else, and the Frankenjacket is what you came up with. Did Kristen tell you it looked good? Because if she did, she LIED!
And finally, HOW?
Were you on an as-yet-unaired episode of Project Runway featuring 12-year-old fashion wannabes? Did you steal it from a homeless guy hanging out around the dumpsters at LAX? Did you “accidentally” take it after a night of ancient cougar lovin’ in Boca Raton? (oh, wait, you’re filming in Baton Rouge… scrap that theory…)
The only thing I can figure is you lost a bet with TomStu. Please, please, please, don’t do that ever again. It’s quite disturbing.
With affection and a desire to fix your closet,
JenJadeEyes

THE jacket!
Oh my, first thoughts..gawd is that Fonzy? (NO, it’s Rob as Fonzy), is that golden? omg is that ugly, is that vintage ? (no, I read ..Dries van Noten = label I really don’t like), are those two jackets?, and what’s with that shirt and………wtf has happened to his hair ??? (5y of jail for that coiffeur please)….all these thoughts in one nanosecond..then PAUSE…
omg, he can wear what he wants, he’s always a beautiful guy!!!
(Patiently looking forward for normal looking Rob again…)
P.S. Is that normal, that every director created his own “Edward-look”, I thought he couldn’t change?
This “look” is the worse, it’s BD Adam’s family style…or so…
THUMBS DOWN for not liking Dries Van Notten!
x
really! What is with this Dries-guy? Everybody likes him, I hate his style…& thumbs up for the right spelling!
LMFAO!!!
Dries van Noten or van Notten…is the same!
ok…it’s van Noten….still don’t like Rob in it!!! 😀
we post in the same time.
it’s in the oversize large cuts. he opened his store in paris a couple of years ago, eveybody wore dries at the moment, I still buy stuff. DO NOT look at the man collection, look at women.
Maybe Rob should pick up something from the womanscollection then…lol…that jacket looked a lil womanish non???
I don’t like him at all, men worse then women, right, but looks all so 90ties clean-new-age-like to me & mostly I hate the colours!
thumbsdown to me for mispelling one of the guys from my closet. Imma go to slepp I guess, late lunch good wine
HA! I thought Rib..ahem Rob was the guy from your closet. 🙂
it only emphasizes that good/bad taste convo we had 🙂
right! I’ll still take him nekkid anyway…jackets on the floor look all the same 🙂
Dear Rob
Since the PCAs I have to explain to my friends (again) that I love you NOT because of your choice of clothes but because of everything else that defines you and convince them that it was not you in that show but that you were just playing Edward again (what has become of TwiEdward I wonder??)
Honi…you kill me! Please stick to your own taste…which means plaid…jeans…sexpenders…beanie and anything else your friends (Tom/Marcus/Bobby etc) can pick up from the floor… and NEVER again let any Dries van Noten dress you up like you walked just down the runway! DOES NOT WORK ON YOU!
Still loving you
Mel
Dear Mel,
it was gratis!
Rob
Ok baby…it’s still a NO!!!
Running around naked is also gratis but you don’t give us THAT pleasure right?? sighhhhh….
Being naked ain’t for free – I bet you there would be a pretty hefty fine enTAILed, depending on where the nekkidness took place, of course.
Rob, could you make it as high profile and visible as possible, pleeease?
OHMYGOD people what do you ALL have with his jackets?
Talk about Kstew’s cheap bimboesque assortiment of THOSE shoes with THAT dress. Kim Kardashian loved it, I’m sure.
XXX
P.S. I’m sorry, it’s the LTR withdrawl symptom.
Can we call that even a dress or was it a shirt??? Dunno…not to mention the “sweet coincidence of them wearing matching colours. Awwwww… no words!!!
she should fire her stylist…..or wait…keep it 🙂
Duuuude! THUMBS UP!
and she can’t even walk on those thingys..
oh my god I’m laughing so hard. in my eyes, that chick will never be attractive, even with the new face they painted on her for the PCA’s. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t even a dress. more like a tee shirt. I never wanted to see that much of her, she has the body of a prepubescent teen. no thanks.
Actually, I think she has the body of a prepubescent teen BOY. And I’m convinced that’s why he likes her. There, I said it 🙂
I didn’t actually hate the jacket. But I don’t think he’d ever have chosen that, which means he gave in to what someone else wanted, which I hope isn’t another step towards him being molded by Hollywood. One of the reasons I love him so is that he usually does his own thing. I don’t want Rob to conform. Sigh.
was it not exactly the same as the god sequined dress she wore to the mtv awards?
in fairness she did look pretty with the hair and make up
(see krisbians i can be objective! – still don’t get him and her but thats a whole other days work that no one wants to debate again.)
This is just another expression of Dadward.
Yes, it was only a matter of time before “Ron” started stealing his dad’s clothes too – of course he picked it up in the hallway, going out of the house to the airport after Christmas break. Sorry about that Dick, it would have looked better on you, I’m sure!
I LIKED THE JACKET I’M SORRY OK. he could wear anything and make me go crazy. BUT it does look remarkably like a jacket my dad wears. so my opinion is an unpopular one, but I liked it. also, the bromance going on between Rob and TayTay warms the cockles of my cold heart. are they getting more into character? preparing for the “Goodbye Jacob, my brother, my son” line? TayTay needs to watch his back nevertheless, Tom will come after him. speaking of, I miss Tom. just saying.
One question- where did the bronze go? Why is his hair so dark?????
sorry- gotta run-
you know how vampire eyes go dark (in Twilight anyhow) when they are unsatied and desperate? perhaps the dark hair (and jacket) is a cry for help. he needs something. we need to find out what and offer it up to him.
oops i meant unsatiated – forgot a few letters there. coffee break time!
I know dark brown hair and pale skin like he walked straight off the set!!
Major fail for the twilight hair crew again!!
*mutters* (cathy coug got the hair bang on…..)
Yes, that woman got a LOT of things…eeh..bang on, as you put it. 🙂 Win!
it was the only one of the 3 films to have nay personality (or humour) but anyway that debate has been done to death!!
I was wondering about the hair…and it looks like his eyebrows are darker too. I miss the bronze hair…sex hair.
Dries Van Notten, Members Van NotOnly, whatever. You know, at first, I hated the jacket, thought it was inappropriate for the awards ceremony. But then upon reflection, I realized it actually was spot-on appropropriate…for that particular ceremony. The PCA award was almost unbearable to watch (same goes for the jacket), an accident I couldn’t look away from (same for the jacket), and rinky-dink/seemed low budget though I’m sure still expensive (exactly, see my point?). At this point, I’m thinking his wardrobe choice was genius. He selected the perfect jacket to “match” the embarrassing spectacle that was the PCA. And knowing that he does have a sarcastic-wicked-offbeat sense of humor, I’m now almost positive that the jacket was his statement about the PCA.
Defense very well made.
He can wear what he wants, he’s always The Pretty.
He had to wear that jacket not to match with Taylor.
But I am disappointed, The Pretty has to find the means to avoid PCA, TCA or whatever. He always has nothing to say, Ms. KStew always find the means to take him down. The whole thing is so second hand embarrasing…
Rob has been confirmed to join the Cosmopolis cast. Erik reminds me of Fifty!!!
Over the next months Rob will be rubbing a bunch of grown up women … I think it will be the end of his teen appeal, thankfully!
Or it just means more competition – already probably half the women my age want a piece of Rob…now it’s gonna be more like 90%. Before I had to compete with my nieces…now I’m going to have to compete with my cousins, aunts, and boss.
Did you hear a supposed line from the Cosmopolis script(I kid you not, it was a big deal on tumblr when everyone heard about it) “I’m going to bottlefuck you slowly with my sunglasses on”. ERIC(ROB) IS SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT. IF ROB SAYS THAT I WON’T SURVIVE. I JUST WON’T.
based on that line alone, i’d have casted russell brand, lol!
HAHAHAHAHHA no. I love Russell though. it’s just a rumor, I just hear it’s supposed to be a risque movie. I think it’ll be good for Rob(and us, hee)
GAH. Do you have the script?
Bottlef*ck, I still don’t know what the hale that means but
it sounds dirty 😛 and painful. Uh, can I say Fifty Shades of f*cked up?
Nooooo I sadly do not have a script. but I’m hearing a lot about it gah. this movie nefibifd seriously
I know!!! I totally thought of Fifty!! I don’t know if I’ll be able to handle it? Do you think he’ll be able to handle it? I mean, I know he can get the look down pat – GQ Rob/Details Rob – but what about the attitude? I’m all tied up about it!
Fifty! It cracks me up that you say that. Just the other day I was gawking over some of the most recent photo outtakes and in some of them, Rob was obviously trying to be badass. My very first thought was “Rob has totally been reading MotU and he’s channeling Fifty.”
Do you guys actually think he’s read MotU? I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW I mean it is my favorite ff and everything. he’s admitted he’s read fic BUT WHICH ONES ROB
Admittedly, I didn’t mind the jacket so much as I did that he buttoned his shirt ALL the way up. It looked so strange–like a pp said maybe he had a tie on earlier and then took it off but then left his shirt buttoned up? It just didn’t go together at ALL. It’s hard to imagine a man a famous as Robert Pattinson can’t have a stylist (or heck, even a friend! lol) tell him, “No, really, you absolutely can’t wear that to an awards show!”
I suppose part of me loves that he still dresses like a hobo (albeit, a designer hobo, lol) but Taylor and Kristen got all fancied up and Rob decided on a bomber jacket? Yeah….
I love that he has NO stylist, Taylor and Kristen always look the same boring way, so at least, the outfit was wrong in a good way!
totally – no one remembers taylor’s tux, but rob’s jacket…that’s memorable. i wonder where the jacket is now. would be an awesome thing to auction off for charitable purposes. or maybe have a jacket haiku contest and give it away to the best entry. or maybe he can stitch on a big R on it and make it like a lettermen’s jacket, wear it around town.
gold jacket, good christ
flightless bird come home to me
i will lick your wings
painful awards show
our pretty hobo overcomes
yellow jacket shame
Rob poem!
Do I win the jacket haiku contest if I’m the only entry?
“pretty hobo”, lmao. dig your haiku.
Wooah ladies ladies, he was voted best dressed and most stylish. So Chillax.
I couldn’t care less what he wore to awards show. He looked so tired and spent. Hope he’ll have nice rest. All work no play no nice Boobies to grope does that to a man.
So glad he got his wish to work with Cottillard. That woman is fiiiine. He came up and asked her to play in Bel Ami ( at Cannes 2009)but she refused then.
Cotillard made him work for it and earn it…I love her even more now. 🙂
what’s the story with Cotillard and Rob? I’m interested.
i don’t know the whole story but i think she primarily rejected it (BA) because the film wasn’t in french…but she probably was also wanting a costar lead with a bit more under his belt (movie-wise, not package-wise).
from what I’ve seen, Rob has quite a bit under his belt. 😉 but I think they’ll be unbelievable together. UGH I CANNOT WAIT. hopefully this’ll be rated R(I bet it will anyway) and we’ll get to see quite a bit more of Rob. I get goosebumps thinking about it. Now I just need WFE.
To me, Rob is an actor who absorbs his co star’s type of act. With dead eye Stew he’s constipated , with lively Emilie he’s more carefree and courageous. Hence, Oscar winners co stars could be the best thing that happened to him. I bet he’ll be awesome in WFE, Bel Ami and Cosmopolis.
Cottillard share the same birthdate with me, that makes my six degree of separation from Rob. 😀
“All work no play no nice Boobies to grope does that to a man.”
Hah hah i think you’ve gotten to the root of robs general underperformance these days!!!
YES!
oh @niahid, you’re making me laugh. I won’t even get started on the shrew. my hate can’t be put into words. But I truly, truly believe Rob is an amazing, budding actor. Think of the scene in Remember Me where he had that fight with his dad at his dad’s meeting. that scene gave me chills. he’s going places(hopefully one of them being my pants)
I like where your mind is going 😀
why is this not the most imptortant thing just for one night?!?!?!
ah, i think i’m going to have to watch RM again instead of studying (all your fault robsessed girl!)
THAT SCENE MY CREYES OH MY GOD chills I tell you. I might watch it too, now that I think of it. I ALWAYS CRY. every time.
I like the Project Runway theory.
LMFAO! Brilliant journalistic style! That jacket really is hideous. God, I hope he didn’t spend much on it.
i still maintain he got it free and tomstu dared him.
sometimes i wonder why i religiously (obsessively compulsively) check ltr and robsessed everytime first thingwhen i’m on the interwebs…. and then i saw this today and i remembered why
http://s581.photobucket.com/albums/ss259/RobsessedBLOG/Cannes%202009/?action=view¤t=party_004.jpg
that boy is all kinds of fine!!!
where did VF rob go??
ah there he is
That was not Rob, it was the strange looking uncle, hair to dark and DvN members jacket and all
So sue me, but I’ve grown to not hate the jacket. I decided that what I really hate about it is the color. Picture it black or brown with The Pretty not having that God-awful dark, dark hair (really, really not loving that hair, Bill Condon), but instead, his beautiful golden locks, not looking so tired and wearing a shirt that’s open at the collar. And voila! Now doesn’t that look a bit hot? Also, just kill me now with the Rob=Eric=Fifty movie in the works. This boy will be the death of me yet.
I agree with you about the color. It looks pretty good in black and white:

OT
So apparently, Cotillard is pregnant. http://www.usmagazine.com/momsbabies/news/actress-marion-cotillard-is-pregnant-2011101
What does this mean?! Will she still be able to be in Cosmopolis?
Wow great news. I vote for Charlize Theron if she’s not available
Or maybe Eva Green. Though then I’d really hate her – first opposite Daniel Craig and then Rob Pattinson. She might pass Rob costar compatibility test too – she’s quirky, nerdy, doesn’t diet (read: open to cheeseburgers), smokes, and plays the piano.
I read that she is due in the spring, before Cosmopolis starts shooting (late May), so maybe it will work out. Hope so.
I hope Cotillard sticks with it – they’ll probably just have to move the start date a few weeks forward. Though I doubt she’s going to want to bring her newborn on that set, what with all the kinky bottles, rectal exams, and car shootings (kid will be scarred for life!). If she does, though, I will be looking forward to a photo of Rob holding her baby.
Wait, wait just a minute! Rectal exams?
I haven’t gotten to that part but from what I just read, that won’t be the most traumatizing part. This Eric guy is 50 times 50 shades of insanely fucked up, no lie.
Yah, a rectal exam, though not 100% they’ll keep that in the script (would love to see out takes of that scene in the bonus DVD features). On a non-related note, a friend forwarded me some internet article stating David Duchovny “would go gay” for rpattz. I can only hope Duchovny finds LTR, because I’d love to discuss licking Rob with him.
So Rob adds to his collection of odd/too tiny jackets- the red velvet jacket, the it-looks-like-a-bird-pooed-on the jacket, the tiny baseball jacket worn in Japan, the green ex-Britannia jacket (I liked this one) and now this weird retro Members Only jacket. Excellent.
Any others????????
the colour me bad one from the 09 mtv movie awards (which i loved!!!!!!*embarassing*)
Ain’t no shame sistah, that was the trigger for my fondness.
I forgot the CMB jacket! hahahahaha
I also love the “kinder-sweatshirt”, light brown, waaay to small!
Hey all!
I’m weighing in a bit late with my tuppence worth but when I first saw a picture of the ensemble, I thought Rob had shelled out some serious bunce for a flashy gold watch or smth. Oh little did I know *smh* that’s the CUFFS!
Now the jacket itself does not offend me BUT does nothing to me either (Yes *sobs* I miss the BBJ!) It does nothing for Rob, so my question is who the hell would it work for?? But thats fashion my darlings – I s’pose?!!
I forgot, the top button thing, I get it. Its a kinda been a retro Mod ‘thing’ here for the boys for a few years. Just as long Rob never wears a trilby, that would be a deal breaker.
~ what am I thinking, Trilby!! Pffft, never #beanieloveforever.
Who would it work for – well, John Stamos for sure, but other obvious choices would be Duckie (Sixteen Candles Duckie for you youngsters) , Christopher Moltisanti (Sopranos – Adriana could pull it off too – she’d rock it with a lurex miniskirt), Kirk Cameron before he went nuts (or maybe even better after), French Stewart, Riker/Number One (Star Trek – NG).
Oh lawdz, you’ll have to forgive me… I know none of those except John Stamos and the only ref I have to him is from ltr. I’m thinking it would work for Tomstu. Yes, really.
Haha! Duckie and Kirk! Yes. That jacket needs to go back to the 80’s where it belongs on Marty McFly’s back.
Your BTTF reference made me realize Crispin Glover would look hot in that jacket too. That jacket actually might need its own director. Paul Verhoeven? David Lynch? Paul Reubens? Tony Scott (Top Gun)? Yah, Tony Scott, that’s it. Picture a Top-Gun style locker room scene – Rob’s jacket could get all badass on Tom Cruise’s flight jacket, Iceman v. Maverick style.
rob in a top gun remake with the aviators hmmmmm
and tomstu could grow a musher and play mark greene or whatever his name was. box office smash.
Mark Greene – you mean Anthony Edwards (Goose)? And TomStu too. Total smash, plus hilarity. At least worthy of a guest appearance on SNL-skit. Oh, and Rob would be great as Jake in a 16 Candles remake , only it would have to be like 24 Candles given that he no longer looks like a teenager. Oh, what the hell, lets make it me and Rob and 39 Candles – with Jake/Rob telling me “I want a serious girlfriend. Somebody I can love, who is gonna love me back. Is that psycho?”
You get the full 900 points on the normal scale.
Great article JenJadeEyes – I had to come over and read it when “Frankenjacket” popped up on my FB wall. ‘Frankenjacket’ haha! excellent.
So I’m newish to LTT and didn’t know there was an LTR blog to read too! (so much goodness in one place!)
Anyhoozle, haven’t had time to read all the responses so sorry if i’m repeating something alredy said – but just curious
*do these guys reveal the name of their who their stylists are?
*do they tend to use the same stylist or change a lot?
*do these sylists have websites?
I know nothing about the ‘workings’ of the hollywood machine – (another effect of being twilight obsessed is that you suddenly start to become interested in the minutiae (however u spell it) of celebrity- lol)
My daughter is obsessed with Justin Bieber and fantasizes that if she becomes a famous singer herself she might just meet him. NOW I know from twilight that the best way to meet someone like that is to become a producer, stylist, bodyguard or publicist or PA. Cos that’s who’s these people seem to spend most of their time with. Amirite?
oops went off on a tangent -(but have pity cos like I say I’m new so have a lot of twi-purging to get out of my system!)
Anyway, thanks again for the “Frankenjacket” laugh! and if anyone knows the answers to my questions tht would be awesome.
new to LTR- YAY!!!
cosi bella:
Welcome to LTR! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. If you adore Rob and have a healthy (and a bit sly and sarcastic) sense of humor, it’s the best Rob-blog on the internet. It’s the first page I check every morning!!
Thanks for the nice welcome guys!
I am a fan of Rob but more in like he’s the kind of guy I would love to be friends with (cos he’s so funny and authentic). Watching how much fun they all have makes me wish I’d gone into movie making when I was younger. What a fun career to be in! So i guess I’ll just have to enjoy it vicariously through the twi-dom escapades.
And yes maggie I totally enjoy sly/sarcastic that’s why after looking for somewhere to park my twi-butt – it HAD to be LTT!
Hi, cosi bella! I like your name.
:))))
Welcome cosi bella and keep commenting! We love adding new members to the LTR fold!!
test comment
Well y’all know I love Rob so much but that jacket’s gotta go! The whole outfit outta be burned! LOL I’m serious! I mean I was glad to see him and his beautiful face but I was dismayed with the outfit, it’s almost like he did it on purpose or someone was out there(stylist?) to embarrass him. Call me shallow but this it how I feel about it. It doesn’t mean I don’t like him anymore, it’s just a basic opinion on his clothing style that night. I don’t care if I get thumbs down, sure I will.
I know I lost a follower or two on Twitter for saying I didn’t care for the “gold” jacket. Fine with me.
I do miss the bubble jacket. Heck even the black hoodie would look awesome. LOL. Or even the R Lauren one that looks like it has paint stains(distressed look, remember that one?).
So Rob wherever you are, know I love you, but please get rid of that jacket. You’re hot no matter what but come on now. 🙂 <3
Oh and what's up with the dark hair and did they dye your eyebrows too? 🙁 I'm really missing the bronze hair, sigh.
I can’t believe I missed today’s critical topic of discussion. (First day back to work.) I could talk about that jacket for hours. In fact, I’m starting to write a fan fiction about.
Oh, the hair. Is it just me, or is Rob naturally bronze? They mess it up when he plays Edward. He has the perfect shade in that sexy beast pic.
I think so, I love his natural hair color, perfect for Edward and they have to change it. I don’t seriously get it why his hair is nearly black now.
That made me laugh out loud (as in really)
Frankenjacket Fanfiction – hahahahahaha!
could be like a sequal to Dr. Seuss’ Green Pants with nobody inside them….
http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/customer-gallery/ANY69FAMRUDIA
OMG, SB, I FORGOT the BBJ!!! What is wrong with me!!!!!
Bahaha yeah girl!
you know the worst worst worst thing about the jacket is that they matched. as cute and all as the beckhams thought they were when they used to do it with denim and leather etc etc back in the day, i never would have pinned rob as a matchy person (esp bright blinging gold,) and the other worst thing about it is i’m sure we’ll be treated several pictures of a certain other person wearing said jacket running throught an airport or a film set.
(yes i have put a lot of thought, effort, energy and consideration into todays topic i have no life -and robstens before you start – bite me)
LOL don’t tell me you have no life! I was sick with pneumonia when I saw Rob wearing that jacket – heinous outfit and that made me say some obscene word. So I guess I have no life either. I was laying in bed and sat right up when I saw him on TV, lol.
Oh and I noticed that Rob looked so tired, poor baby. He needs some good ol’ southern homecooked meal and some good old home brews :).
Hey, Rob here. Yes, I am tired and some “good ol’ southern home cooked meal” sounds abso-freaking-lutely delicious. Please and thank you, ma’am
Aw crap! Um, ummm, I am definitely *not* RoslynSelene I am Rob.
Okay, okay, you caught me. Will you still make me food? 😛
Liar, liar pants on fire! LOL
LOL somehow I doubt if Rob says “ma’m!
But yeah sure alright!
Oh, he would definitely say ma’am. Especially if he’s given hot food. You know what he ate last night for dinner? A cold, tear-stained sandwich. Oh wait no, that was me. *sob*
i really think the weird jacket it kristen’s fault. She wanted him to match with her dress. She threw a fit before they left insisting he had to change. hence the reason he’s in a buttoned up shirt. Yea i think he originally had on something different. And yea he looked super tired, an is it jus me, or did he look more like cedric diggory than edward. i miss old edward
Yes, he did look like Cedric. He just looked really thin and worn out. At first I thought he looked hung over maybe. But he’s definitely thinner. Not healthy looking at all. =(
I agree with @love high, thinner. I’m a little worried about our boy. I hope he’s okay. Intervention anyone?
I just don’t know how you ladies stay committed to Rob. I can’t do it anymore. The bad jackets, the chopped hair, the unlaced shoes…. When someone FINALLY manages to get him into a suit, it’s figgin 3 shades from *shudders* pink. I can understand the hobochic when he’s hiding from the fangirls, but when you’re at an event to be given an award…. DRESS THE EFF UP!!
*flounce*
He’s still the Pretty, even in Pink.
the jacket looks great, and Rob looks better then the runaway model. Rob sells clothes. Imagine if taylor or efron wearing it!! he stood out from the rest, its already in GQ magazine for new trend. i also love the maroon suit form eclipse premiere.
Oh, Rob. Always the trend setter. I should know. I have 3 plaid shirts and one pair of Raybans in my wardrobe! But no shiny golden jackets…yet. 😉
I’m late. Missed this post somehow. But don’t hate me- but I don’t mind the jacket. I also like tweed serious and clean-shaven Rob! Sorry. But the hair- wth!!! I think they are in serious need of a continuity expert and I volunteer! That’s right, Summit. I’ll work for free!
Well, it seems some people like the jacket more than I anticipated, especially the fashion critics. I don’t understand it, but I’m older and remember the 80’s. I can def. see Ducky in the jacket, natteringyeahrobber!
I think the jacket could have been helped along – not wearing a button-up shirt done all the way up would have been my first recommendation, changing the color would have been the second. After checking out his website, Mr. van Noten seems to really like that washed-out tan color, which I think did Rob a disservice. Also, I would have picked a jacket without the shiny.
I have been a long time reader of LTT/LTR, and this was my first foray into blogging – thanks for the wonderful responses!
JenJadeEyes
Congrats on your first letter!! It was great and apparently very successful! 🙂
Loved your blog posting, JJE! And thanks for knowing who the hell Duckie is/was – I’d clearly half forgotten myself. In that spirit, let me attempt to break it down, 80’s Molly Ringwald movie style. Rob selected the DVN jacket to be edgy like Steff/James Spader (Pretty in Pink), in order to mentally prepare for his morally-deficient, perverted rich dude role in Cosmopolis. In real life, he’s more like Jake (16 Candles), so pulling off Steff required bringing out the big guns, aka the golden hammer. Unfortunately, said jacket does not help him channel Spader. Instead, it makes him a bit like Duckie (Pretty in Pink). Which is mostly OK because Duckie is endearing, passionate, goofy and smart. So basically Rob is the perfect hybrid – Duckie personality and humor mixed with Jake’s smoldering good looks, trance-inducing voice and “sex hair” (as another LTRobber so beautifully put it). Molly Ringwald wishes she could have had it this good.
Maybe we could blame Summit for the jacket? They seem to be responsible for all bad fashion/hair/makeup experiments.
I loved this–putting the BBJ out to stud, and this was the runt of the litter!
And I think maybe you’re onto something with TayTay and Rob matching in black shirt and pants. That just wasn’t on!
I’ve tried but I just can’t help it… I like the jacket! (waiting for the booing and hissing). You know Tay-tay is just so clean-cut that it’s boring, and Kristen is going to be in something short(!) and/or sparkly, but with Rob you just never know and I like that about him. I can see the 80’s/Duckie thing too LOL, but then I grew up in the 80’s so I have a soft spot for bad fashion 🙂
Bad fashion happened in the 70’s…..believe me……

Dear Rob baby: Now you know that I love & adore you & I try to do this unconditionally, but that jacket *gags* is awful. I was so taken aback by that fugly coat that I had a difficult time focusing on your beautiful face, while watching the awards. I’m no fashion diva & I’m aware that this is a “designer piece from a new spring collection”, but it looked like something that we wore in the late 70’s – early 80’s; that metal zipper… *gags again*.
*sigh* <3 MC
