It is no secret that Hollywood is full of handsome hunk couples. But what is unique about
Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner is that their union seems to match the hype. The British
actor and the American actor have been inseparable for years and are constantly spotted
together. From attending popular events to filming countless commercials and personal
films, it would appear that the public has a clear idea of what kind of a couple they should
be. So, is the relationship really as good as everyone seems to think it is? Let’s take a look.
The Public Perception
Often times, it is the case that the pair are so good together that it is easy for the
public to assume that they are a couple. After all, when two famous movie stars are seen
together, people will likely assume that they are an item. But, is that always the case? Let’s
take a look at some of the instances where Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner haven’t
always gone together as a pair.
Social Events
One of the ways that the media like to portray celebrities is through their behavior at
social gatherings. The fact that these events are often photographed and videoed means that the
press can cherry-pick the ‘friendliest’ moments to highlight. Therefore, it is only natural that
the public would want to know what happened at these events. Sometimes, these moments can
indicate how a celebrity values their relationship with the public. For example, back in 2012,
the celebrity couple was spotted enjoying a cozy night out at Bar Covet in Hollywood. The
British actor was seen holding hands with the American actress while they looked into each
other’s eyes and smiled. The image was so romantic that fans immediately started speculating
that they were dating. However, the following month, Pattinson was seen at the Met Gala in
New York City holding hands with another woman. The actor tried to play it off as though it were
a joke, but it didn’t seem to be. In fact, a week later he was photographed with yet another
woman. This has lead to many people wondering if he is cheating on Taylor Lautner. And, as you
would expect, the actor has denied all of the rumors. He has stated that he is simply ‘friends’
with all of the women that he dates. This isn’t the first time that Pattinson has been accused
of being unfaithful. In 2010, his then-fiancée Emily Brown posted a blog accusing the actor of
cheating on her during the production of Twilight. Ultimately, the two called off the
engagement, but only after the actress learned the truth about her fiance’s cheating. The
blog post went public and Brown received death threats, which she has since spoken about
(although she admits that she still has love for Pattinson).
Business Events
Another way that celebrities are often portrayed in the media is through their
business dealings. The fact that people are often willing to shell out large amounts of money
for the rights to film an actor’s business deals means that celebrities can have compelling
stories to tell. The question is, are these stories true? Sometimes, there will be
misconceptions and inaccuracies about a celebrity’s business dealings, especially when
newspapers feel the need to sell more copies. Let’s take a look at how Robert Pattinson and
Taylor Lautner’s relationship has handled business deals – so far.
In November 2012, it was revealed that the celebrity pair had invested in a ‘yacht’
together. The following month, gossip site TMZ reported that the yacht had been purchased in
the name of Pattinson’s daughter Mia, who is also the actress’ goddaughter. However,
the actor has denied these reports and said that he and Lautner simply want to help a friend
who happens to be a businessman.
In October 2013, it was reported that Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner had invested
in a vineyard together. Although the actor had no comment on the matter, the American
actor’s rep said that the two were ‘very excited’ about their new project and ‘look
forward to sharing it with the world.’ But once again, the actor has vehemently denied these
reports.
Films
Speaking of sharing, another way that celebrities are portrayed in the media is through
their filmography. It is only natural that fans would want to know everything about a
celebrity’s movies. Sometimes, this can be problematic as some actors might not want to reveal
all of their work due to privacy concerns. But, if an actor’s films are good, then the audience
will most likely want to see more. Sometimes, it can also be tricky to find out what exactly
happened during the filming of a certain movie. Was that really the best take? Did the
director really yell at you during that particular scene? It can be difficult to find out the
answers to these questions without seeing the film, but it is often better for the audience if
the truth is exposed. Ultimately, good film writing will make it easier for the reader to
believe that something sinister is going on even when all of the evidence suggests
otherwise.
Personal Projects
Sometimes, it is only necessary to have a celebrity’s permission to film them
performing certain tasks or holding certain poses. These bits of information can then be used to
create interesting stories, or just enhance the media coverage of a certain event. For example,
if you wanted to film a skit involving puppets, you would most likely have to get
permission from the actor in advance due to the limitations of your camera. These stories are
often times just fabricated clickbait, but they can still be interesting to read if published
with good writing.
Overall, it is clear that Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are incredibly private
people who don’t like to publicly discuss their personal lives. The fact that they haven’t
always chosen to be public about their partnership makes it even more compelling. It seems
that this is a union that was meant to be kept private. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean that
their personal lives are not interesting. It is simply that they have chosen not to share them
with the public for whatever reason. Ultimately, due to their extreme privacy, it is difficult
to know for sure what is going on behind the scenes. However, what we do know is that the
relationship between these two highly-profiled celebrities is certainly interesting, and it is
clear that they value their time together. Nevertheless, nothing can ever truly measure up to
the hype surrounding this celebrity couple. It is simply that, sometimes, the truth can be a
bit stranger than fiction.
