I watched all the Comic-Con New Moon panel interview videos and looked at pictures. I have to say Kristen Stewart looked like she couldn't stand to be near Rob Pattinson. They also did not sit next to each other. I also noticed that Kristen was hanging on Taylor Lautner in some of the interviews. Robsten did not have their normal chemistry with each other. Now I'm a big Robsten fan, and it made me think that maybe they are not so on anymore. I don't want to give up on Robsten, but I'm thinking it might be time to. Do you think so? Thanks for all you give, always.
—Me
Dear Abandon Ship:
Do you really think the teacher would let the students choose their seats? Not likely. Everything at Comic-Con was carefully placed and rehearsed, trust.
Dear Ted:
How dare Chris Brown say he hopes to be "worthy of the term role model"? He will never be a role model. He can't be because anyone who is willing to punch another person repeatedly in the face, especially a woman, can never be someone who can be looked up to.
—Emer
Dear Brown Going Down:
Agreed. And I do think we're currently witnessing the slow decline of Chris Brown into musical mishap obscurity. And I do no feel bad for the d-bag. He also apologized way too late.
Dear Ted:
Angelina Jolie is too quiet. I think she's up to something. I think she will either keep Brad and pull a Tilda Swinton kind of life, or she will dump Brad and pick up an R.Pattz. Either way, it will be very yummy.
—Waiting in Trinidad
Dear Waiting for Ange:
I feel like I've answered this question dozens of times now. Angie always plays it cool and quiet until she decides it's time to get her way again.
Dear Ted:
Every time I scroll down your page and see Rob's and Taylor's zoomed-in lips on your "Whose Puckers Are More Luscious?" vote, I get a bit...aroused. I'm not that much older than these guys (I'm 28), but it does make me feel a little dirty lusting over younger guys.
—Audrey
Dear Aching Loins:
It's perfectly natural, sweets. Just make sure your arousal isn't ruffling anyone else's feathers, y'hear?
Dear Ted:
So I just finished reading the People magazine article [on Robert Pattinson], and after getting over the "meh," I came away with one big question. I noticed that half the article says Rob is a really flirtatious guy who goes after all his leading ladies, and the other half infers that he's actually very shy and not an aggressive flirt. According to your sources, what's the not-so-awful truth about this?
—Which Rob is Rob?
Dear Mystery Man:
And does it surprise you that People is failing to deliver, as always? Try me when you've read a real piece of juice.
Dear Ted:
I still believe [Robsten is] a couple, but Summit is running the relationship. I am disappointed, though, that we did not get some big, delish announcement like you teased us about. What we got was a couple who still can't be open about their relationship. What exactly was Summit feeding you, an engagement announcement?
—Wathen
Dear Something's Up at Summit:
While I'm sure we would all love a press release regarding their relationship status, what twentysomething couple do you know who are that comfortable with all-encompassing labeling?
Dear Ted:
It's so refreshing to read a column from someone who cuts the BS. What do you make of the reaction K.Stew gave when asked about her "potential" off-screen relationship with Rob Pattinson at Comic-Con? It seemed to me that she was peeved and a little defensive. Thoughts? Taylor looked baffled.
—Kltwitter3
Dear Comic-Confused:
You've got to sympathize, as that's pretty much all that Kristen is being asked these days. Excuse the poor gal for her frustrations.
Dear Ted:
Longtime reader, first-time caller (I think...). Love the column! Certainly the time spent on reading the tabloids must be good for something...Nevis Divine? Michael Cera?
—Natalia
Dear Sweet, Sweet Natalia:
Nevis is far more attractive than that one-trick pony Michael Cera. And haven't I answered this one already? Think far more well-rounded, chiseled.
Dear Ted:
I just want to ask, is there any other couple aside from Robsten that you have cheered for from the sidelines? I am actually amazed at the pull of Robsten's coupledom that they went beyond the tween domination and even sane, cynical adults, like a lot of us, want them to have the ever-after ending. Was there another couple that garnered this much and this kind of attention?
—Guzmangen
Dear Coupling:
In the past, Gillovny was an interesting case, but I've got to say, believe it or not, the couple (besides Robsten) I'm currently loving is most definitely Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus. Or maybe that's just because I can't wait for Miley to bring out the disaster bad-boy in Nick!
Dear Ted:
I'm embarrassed to admit I've started keeping up with all the Disney princesses, even though I'm old enough (just barely) to be their mother. Maybe watching their shows is escapism from this not-so-pretty adult world we're facing right now. Anyway, you need a flow chart to keep up with all the relationships—who's BFFs, who's dating who, blah blah—especially when you add in close non-Disneyites like Taylor Swift. So, I have a not-so-subtle question: Who wins in the nice department, Selena or Miley? Selena seems like such a sweetheart. Maybe they both are, but there's tension from a mutual Nick-lovin' thing?
—Curious
Dear Mommybopper:
Selena, by a landslide. Miley is kind to fans, yep, but Selena is an absolute darling. Princess knows how to play her cards right to stay relevant in this town!
Dear Ted:
Rupert Everett called Michael Jackson freakish looking. Has he looked in the mirror lately? Pot, meet kettle. Perhaps I could take Rupie more seriously if he was relevant and wasn't just talking out his ass to get attention.
—Madonna
Dear RuPaul:
Babycakes, if you think Rupert is remotely comparable to M.J. in the looks department, you're out of your damn Thriller-loving mind.
Dear Ted:
Why is everyone feeling R.Pattz? I think he is not good looking—his nose is sort of crooked, and he is really skinny, and God knows the amount of product on that oh-so-messy hair! I think any other dude from Twilight is hotter and has much more talent as an actor. On the other hand, I do feel him as a singer, have you heard his stuff? He has such a heartfelt way of singing. I read your column every day; it's very entertaining. Thanks much for that.
—Isabel
Dear Pattinsinger?:
Prepare to be bitched out in three...two...Seriously, Izzie, I'd stay away from the comments if I were you.
Dear Ted:
I'm watching E! News, and they are talking about how Robert Pattinson "may be crushing" on Kristen Stewart. Does E! not keep their people in touch? This was news over a year ago. They should be talking about Comic-Con, not ancient history! Maybe you should inform them on what's really going on. Keep up the great work! I have to check your site every day before and after classes.
—Lindsey
Dear Failure to Communicate:
Unfortunately, our beloved on-air coworkers aren't as in tune with the gossipy way of life as they ought to be.
Dear Ted:
How is Nevis Divine's love life going?
—Jennifer
Dear Dating Divine:
Nevis's love life is confusing, as is the case with any good-looking guy who can sleep with probably anyone (and any gender) he wants!
Dear Ted:
I go and look on E! Online every day, so for the most part, I know what's going on, but you said Kristen and Rob have a surprise for every one, so what is it?
—Cabowabo Girl
Dear Surprise Ruiner:
The surprise was that the whole cast would be coming down to introduce the movie and show special clips. Yeah, I'm utterly disappointed, too.
Dear Ted:
I am so disappointed with Comic-Con! Kristen and Robert looked unhappy, and Taylor looked like he hated being between them. I didn't expect it to be such a downer, especially since last year was so festive. What happened?
—Arabella
Dear Spare the Oregano:
This thing called a contract. That's when you have to do what those who also signed the contract tell you what to do.
Dear Ted:
Robsten at Comic-Con: no smiles, no flirting, nothing. How sad—I think I am going to cry now.
—Jody
Dear Twi-motional:
Don't be so easily fooled by what you saw at Comic-Con. Not all is what it seems...
