Over the Moon

Mark Segal/ Interview, ALASDAIR McLELLAN/ Interview

Grown women are stealing cardboard cutouts of Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner from Nordstrom.  The cutouts are being used to promote a New Moon fashion line.  A Nordstrom employee said "…we can't keep them in the store.  People keep coming in and stealing Rob and Taylor…it's usually middle-aged women."  I can't imagine that a couple of cougars shopping in a pair of high heels would be that tough to catch, especially when they're trying to run with a cardboard cutout.  The wind resistance alone should slow them down.  And how the hell does it "keep happening?"  If you see Kim Cattrall darting out of the store with a fake vampire once, you should rethink your security game plan so that it doesn't happen again.  Better yet, don't.  If things are so bad for these women that cardboard cutouts are bringing them any kind of joy, let them go off.  Nordstrom doesn't need them to sell that fashion line, those babies will sell themselves.
