There have been rumors that actor Robert Pattinson is available, and that his phone number could possibly be bought for a small price. But is this true? We take a look at this ‘Robert Pattinson rumor’ and come to a conclusion that it isn’t that easy to get his phone number. So, if you really want to know what it takes, keep reading.
Theory #1: He Might Be On Twitter
If you follow celebrities on social media, then it’s quite possible that you’ve come across the name “Robert Pattinson”. The “Twilight” star has over 480 million followers on Twitter and over 300 million on Instagram. If you’ve stumbled upon one of his tweets, then it’s quite likely that you’ll be able to get his phone number. To prove that this is indeed the case, all you need to do is search for his name and phone number on Google search, and you’ll see that many, if not all of his tweets are actually connected to phone numbers. For example, here’s a tweet from October 2018:
Good afternoon, ladies. It’s going to be a hot one, isn’t it?
In case you were wondering, that’s “good afternoon” in tweet language. You can click on the highlighted text to read the entire tweet.
As you can see here, all of Pattinson’s tweets are connected to phone numbers (and the vast majority of them are area codes from the United Kingdom).
So, does this mean that you can simply search for “Robert Pattinson” and his phone number will pop up as the first result? Not exactly. First of all, there are countless numbers of people with the last name Pattinson. And even if your search result is for the specific actor, you’ll still need to do some digging to get his phone number. But, assuming that you’ve managed to find the correct Robert Pattinson, you can try calling him using one of the numbers connected to his tweets.
Theory #2: He Might Have An Agent
Another possibility is that Pattinson has an agent who handles his business affairs. Even if this is the case, it’s unlikely that the agency would give out the actor’s personal phone number to just anyone who asks for it. Agents typically don’t provide their clients’ contact details to anyone who doesn’t have a good reason for knowing them. So, if you want to get in touch with Pattinson, then you’ll need to find an official way of doing so. Fortunately, there are plenty of options for this as well.
Theory #3: He Might Be On The Register As A Sex Offender
Pattinson’s recent legal troubles may also help explain why some people think that they can purchase his phone number. You see, the “Twilight” star was arrested in July 2018 for allegedly assaulting a photographer. Since then, he’s had multiple court appearances and is currently in court as we speak (the trial is scheduled for September 2020). Perhaps in an effort to deflect attention away from himself, the criminal defense attorney for Pattinson in the above case, Scott Palmer, has indicated that his client might be on the register as a sex offender. If this is indeed the case, then it would explain why he doesn’t want to talk to just anyone about personal matters. You see, the last thing that he needs is for the police to run his registration information every time he calls for help.
So, does this mean that Pattinson is Superman when it comes to protecting his private information? Not exactly. It just means that he doesn’t want to talk to strangers. And even though an attorney is representing him, this doesn’t mean that he’ll suddenly open up to a complete stranger just because they ask nicely. If you really want to get in touch with the actor, then you’ll need to either wait until the trial is over or find an attorney who is well-versed in criminal law in general and sex offender law in particular.
Theory #4: He Has Been In A Past Life
Perhaps the biggest knock on Pattinson is that some people think that he’s overhyped. They claim that he’s simply doing a very good job of marketing himself. But is this true? It’s quite possible that the reason why some people don’t believe in his greatness is because they haven’t truly tried to access it. When it comes to getting the phone number of an actor, it’s quite easy to just search for them and their contact information will pop up. But what if this isn’t the case? What if the person you’re trying to get the number of actually is very famous and has a ton of fans who are desperately trying to contact them? In that scenario, getting their number just might be a lot harder than you think.
Take the case of “Lost” star Richard Alpert for example. He’s arguably one of the most famous people on Twitter, with over 52 million followers. You’d think that just by entering his name and phone number into a search engine, you’d be able to instantly find his contact information. But that isn’t the case at all. If you type “Richard Alpert” into Google search, then the first thing that you’ll see is an article from the New York Times talking about how Alpert is trying to remain anonymous. It’s unclear whether or not the author of the article is aware that Alpert is actually Richard Alpert, but it doesn’t matter. Alpert made his Twitter name famous, so he has a lot of people looking for him. But if you want to find out more about the “Lost” star, then you’ll need to dig a little deeper.
Verdict
So, what does all this mean? Well, it means that if you’re truly interested in getting in touch with Robert Pattinson, then you’ll need to do a little bit of research first. Fortunately, there are ways to contact him without having to go through all of this. For example, you could try reaching out to his publicist or an agency that represents him. But given his recent legal troubles, it might not be the safest idea to simply call him. But even so, it’s important to keep in mind that he doesn’t have to give his personal phone number to just anyone who asks for it.
