UPDATE!

Several days ago Gossip Cop told you Robert Pattinson had not yet been approached to participate in this Friday’s “Hope for Haiti” telethon, but a source close to the actor said, “I’m sure Robert would participate if asked.”

We passed the message along to organizer George Clooney‘s people, and today it appears as though the “Twilight” star is on board.

A source close to Pattinson tells Gossip Cop he’s doing the event, saying, ”We are in the process now of working out his participation from London.”

Gossip Cop is working to confirm other possible additions to the list of participants. We will keep you posted on what we learn.

Haiti obviously needs as much financial support as possible, so the more big names to lend a hand, the better.

UPDATE – 2:00PM –

Many of you asked whether Kristen Stewart will be part of the “Hope for Haiti” event. Gossip Cop has learned that Stewart would love to be involved, but will be occupied at the Sundance Film Festival and unable to participate.

As always, we’ll keep you posted with developments…

    Sundance is 11 days. Kristen won’t be given one day off to participate in the telethon! It’s such a good cause. Even if all she did was answer phones for an hour!

    Its great to see Rob supporting such a worthy event. Bless him he gets nervous in public appearances so this is a huge thing for him to do. I’ll be watching thats for sure.

    It’s great he’s doing the Haiti event. Even though it doesn’t come on here until 1:00 am I’ll watch it. His nervousness is part of his charm. Re: his Oscar absence – he’ll be in the middle of filming Bel-Ami and is apparently taking a two-week absence for Remember Me promotion. Since he is the lead in B-A he’s probably in virtually every scene and they will probably have to shut down for those two weeks when he’s gone. It would be unfair to the film company to add to that time. Also, the Razzies are announced the night before Oscar and I fear there is a possibility he may be nominated as worst supporting actor and he/KS as worst couple. I doubt Summit would want the embarrassment of that kind of win in the week of RM’s release.
