OK, this is getting as old as Rob Pattinson's favorite musty underpants. Knowledgeable sources out the friggin' wazoo are coming to us claiming that Summit, the production company heralding our fabulous Twilight series, engages in heavy-handed tactics involving whom their stars may or may not date.

And Summit just won't say if it's true or not—even though I've been asking them for ages! Some sources even claim this studio edict is demanded contractually.

"[Summit]'s really strict about their stars not dating," revealed an insider with firsthand knowledge about the rules and regulations regarding being a Twilight star. "So Rob and Kristen are pretty screwed."

Uh, that's only if the two beautiful Twilight costars are actually dating, right?

Guess this gets into that über-tricky dictionary dilemma, otherwise known as define dating, right? "I can tell you this," added another source supertight with the Twi cast, "Kristen and her boyfriend [Michael Angarano] are together—even if it's just for show, they're together right now."

Angarano's mere presence, of course, is supposed to shut up all talk that Kristen and Robert might be more than just superclose castmates, right? Isn't that how you think if you're a high-powered Hollywood suit? (Lots of them do, trust me on this.)

But hey, I'm all for giving everyone the right to speak. And Summit, to date, has chosen to pass on that particular little cast etiquette rule. As I said, they have not commented one way or the other.

Why is everyone involved in this young-love scenario (both on and off camera) acting like they have something to hide?

Rob? Has the texting love partner you're not supposed to be with got your tongue?
