Let’s see: Take a hugely successful franchise – say, “Twilight” – and add an alleged “feud” between two of its big stars – say, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner – and what do you have? The ingredients for a cliché tabloid story.

“A secret real-life feud between on-screen rivals Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner is threatening to boil over into the public arena and is proving a nightmare for Twilight producers,” begins a piece in Famous magazine.

The article goes on to say, “Rob and Taylor have a working relationship but that’s where it ends. They can just about stand to be in the same vicinity for the fans at public appearances, but once the cameras are gone the bitching begins – and it’s getting a whole lot worse.”

Really?!

And what do you suppose the (fake) friction is over?

A so-called “source” tells Famous, “They’re competitive about everything from girls to their physiques.”

Not true and… not true.

But here’s Gossip Cop’s favorite part. The “source” says, “There’s a reason Kristen [Stewart] is always between them in photos… They can’t stand to be around each other and despise having to pretend.”

Or…

Maybe, just maybe, they pose according the universal convention of “boy-girl-boy.”

Oh wait, one more thing: Note Gossip Cop‘s picture (above) of Lautner and pal Pattinson hanging out together at the “New Moon” after-party two weeks ago.

Gossip Cop has been covering the “Twilight Saga” and its stars for some time, and unless you have high blood pressure, take this report with a grain of salt.
