Site Invents Alleged Robert Pattinson “Diss” of Taylor Lautner

Truth rating: 0

(HollywoodLife)

HollywoodLife, which never misses a chance to make up controversy about Robert Pattinson, is at it again.

The webloid’s new headline declares, “Robert Pattinson Vs. Taylor Lautner: Did Rob Diss Taylor’s Acting?”

“Is there a real-life ‘Breaking Dawn’ rivalry brewing?” asks the story’s first line, going on to tease the “inflammatory comment” that supposedly serves as “the first stone in a new war of words between the two hunks!”

Wow, Pattinson must have really said something nasty about his Twilight co-star for HollywoodLife to play it up like this, right?

Wrong.

The site refers to an (alleged) Reveal magazine interview in which Pattinson (allegedly) says, “I’d have to make a lifestyle change if I wanted to do shirtless acting. But it seems like every single actor in the world is doing a ‘Taylor Lautner’ scene – it’s crazy.”

Pattinson is said to continue, “They have a scene where they walk out with like a 12-pack. It’s like, ‘Really? You’re playing a normal guy! That doesn’t make any sense.’ But that’s a prerequisite of being an actor. Or you can get fat!”

For those of you waiting for the “inflammatory comment” HollywoodLife promised… um, apparently, that was it.

Pattinson pointed out the silliness of actors who are NOT Taylor Lautner being ripped and shirtless for roles that do NOT require being ripped and shirtless… and somehow HollywoodLife interpreted this to be a “diss” of Lautner.

He said absolutely nothing about Lautner or Lautner’s acting.

Sigh.

We’re not sure whether this is mostly a result of HollywoodLife’s reading comprehension problem or the site’s desire to create feuds, but the entire mess is yet more sloppy work from a webloid intent on creating “news,” not accurately reporting it.

    Did the comment really deserve the tab article? No…and it didn’t warrant a rebuttal from GC either. Both are laughable.

    Nope, he is not ‘friendly’ with the paps, but I agree completely with the first part of what gabi wrote.

  • jinx

    You should not use a word if you don’t understand its meaning.

    TO GOSSIPCOP,
    how come you guys haven’t verified the article done by Hollywood Life, EOnline, and Us Weekly about Taylor apparently dating his ex again??? I know that people have asked you guys to verify it, and you haven’t!

  • JessMarie414

    And people actually believe this crap? Pathetic!

  • Lindsay

    Everyone knows that Hollywood Life is probably the least reliable gossip site out there. The people who actually believe anything their so called sources say need serious help.

  • Valentina

    You can’t believe anything Hollywood Life says. They make up 99 percent of everything they write about Rob.

    Rob is famous for making fun of himself, not others. He has co-stars who do that, not him. That’s why he’s so universally liked and overwhelmingly popular.

    My guess is GC is still running down its sources before it weighs in.

  • Iusfgaso

    Can you or anybody else email GossipCop and tell them to review the article? I’ve emailed them about it, but they haven’t done anything…

    Robert really isn’t a great actor so he wouldn’t have much to stand on and Taylor did pretty good job in his role. Robert was too pathetic in his role…Edward was a strong man Robert made him seem to weak I was not impressed with his facial expressions….so really he would have no room to talk. Sorry but Taylor seems fairly intelligent but Edward is like an idiot outside of his roles as an actor…it’s sad perhaps he should work on his personal behavior before he ever bashes anyone.
