"They kissed a couple times," says a staffer, according to the magazine report. And it's clear Lizzy likes Stewart (who won an award at the BAFTAs days earlier). "The women were hugging," says the witness. For the costars it wasn't the only canoodle that week.

"Kourtney Kardashian is no modest mama! The reality star, 30, who welcomed son Mason with beau Scott Disick, 26, on December 14, discussed her breastfeeding MO with sisters Kim, 29, and Khloé, 25, mom Kris Jenner, 54, and an unknown male during a business meeting at Beverly Hills' Polo Lounge February 26," Hot stuff reports.

"If I have to feed him, I just whip it out," an onlooker overheard Kourtney say. "If I'm doing it in public and someone doesn't like it — don't look! I don't give a s--t. I have Khloé to remind me when it's gone too far."  
And while the sisters were all on their best behavior earlier that afternoon when they threw a baby shower for Keeping Up With the Kardashians executive producer Farnaz Farjam at Beverly Hills' Italian eatery Il Cielo, Kourtney's little one did act up a bit. "I was wearing a white jacket, and Mason threw up all over me!" his aunt Kim recounts to Hot Stuff. "I had to go change!"

The report adds Rob and Kristen offered even more evidence of their love for each other inside the Paris Theatre. An eyewitness with a bird's eye view of Rob and Kristen tells Life & Style:

More here from the magazine including this report of the eyewitness that spilled to Life & Style that Rob and Kristen acted like they were the only two people in the theater.
“At one point, Kristen laid her head on his shoulder and he rested his on hers. Their little signs of affection were mutual."
The report adds, "After the movie premiere ended, Kristen and Rob headed around the corner from the theater to The Plaza Hotel for the Remember Me after party. Rob entered first, around 9:20 pm, with Kristen only a few steps behind him — again showing their solidarity as a couple."

"The Twilight stars had something almost everyone hopes for - an immediate connection with the person they really want to be with and can't get enough of. "I think the chemistry between Rob and me is sort of an instant thing," Kristen says. "Not that I can identify it." Rob admits to being both intimated and enamored with Kristen. "She's amazing," he says."

For Selena, the item claims, "Gomez Grew Stronger After Getting Her Heart Broken."

British hunk Robert Pattinson (pictured) has a beautiful American girlfriend Kristen Stewart, but Us Magazine claims he has another crush. The magazine muses that besides sexy girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens, "Teenage girls aren't the only ones swooning over Zac Efron, 22! International hottie Robert Pattinson also seems to be enchanted."

The item notes the "Remember Me" star, 23, has admiringly mentioned his apparent man crush and fellow heartthrob in multiple interviews.

They offer examples. "I met Zac Efron...That was one of the first times I'd ever been starstruck...His face is so specific, it's surreal." - Britain's OK! Magazine, November 2009
Another from Vanity Fair, December 2009 - "Wishful thinking? During one interview, Pattinson confessed he thinks nhis Twilight action figure looks more like Zac Efron than his own visage."

"If I got shot...I would be like 'Are you serious? Jesus Christ, get Zac Efron! He's got more social relevance than I do.'"

"He's the new face of success. But he's also the opposite of what thought he would be. He's so honest and down-to-earth. You'd think he's so prepared for the press, but he's not."

Robert Pattinson has confirmed he is dating Kristen Stewart.

The actor - who stars in the hit 'Twilight' vampire movie franchise alongside Kristen - has previously been very guarded about his love life but admitted at the BAFTA Awards after-party on Sunday night (21.02.10) he and Kristen are an item.

Robert, 23, insists they have only avoided going public with their relationship before now because they were worried about being hounded by obsessed fans.

Speaking at the post-BAFTAs dinner held at London's Grosvenor House Hotel, he said: "It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes. We can't arrive at the same time because of the fans, it goes crazy.

U.S. actress Kristen Stewart, best known as Bella in the hit "Twilight" franchise, ditches her image as a wholesome, reserved teenager to play a foul-mouthed, pot-smoking prostitute in "Welcome to the Rileys."

The movie, which is at the Berlin film festival without its two biggest stars -- Stewart and "The Sopranos" lead James Gandolfini -- has found a distributor for the key U.S. market and will hit cinemas in the autumn.

Director Jake Scott, son of Ridley, said he first considered Stewart for the part of Mallory when Sean Penn recommended her on the strength of her performance in his movie "Into the Wild."

Stewart, 19, has become a teen idol for her part in the two Twilight movies released so far, and her involvement in Welcome to the Rileys is likely to be a major boost for a low-budget, independently produced film.

"We shot this in 2008, so Twilight came out when we'd wrapped," Scott told reporters in Berlin on Monday. "I saw her in 'Into the Wild'. We got lucky."

Stewart plays Mallory, a down-and-out teenaged stripper and prostitute in New Orleans who Doug Riley, played by Gandolfini, takes under his protective wing.

We quickly learn that his affection for the girl is driven by a desire to find a surrogate for his own daughter, who died in a car crash aged 15.

Riley's wife, played by Melissa Leo, overcomes her grief and paranoia and drives from their home to see him, and she quickly agrees to play the role of mother in the new "family."

"As a director I was attracted to it (the story) because I'm a father and I made a film really about fatherhood," said Scott.

MIXED REVIEWS

While reviews have criticized the plot for being contrived and cliched, the three main performances have drawn praise and underlined Stewart's credentials outside the blockbuster world.

Co-producer Scott Bloom of Argonaut Pictures underlined how small films found it hard to get to movie theatres.

"This is the first film we actually produced," he said. "We put a fund together about two years ago and we were hesitant to get involved in a project like this because it is very challenging.

"It kind of goes against the normal way of thinking about things."

Another low-budget U.S. movie screened in Berlin on Monday, "Father of Invention," has yet to get a distributor, despite the fact that it stars two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey.

For director Scott, Welcome to the Rileys is his second feature and the first in a decade.

"It took 10 years because no one would let me do a film," he said. "I tried really hard. I've literally been trying for 10 years to make a film. It was not for lack of trying.

"(Debut film) Plunkett & Macleane was really poorly received, I would say justifiably poorly received, and it was quite hard."

A kiss with Robert Pattinson's rumored girlfriend Kristen Stewart might be quite exciting for many, but for teen actress Dakota Fanning (pictured) it wasn't a big deal, she says it was just all part of the role she signed on to play.

Dakota said her kiss with co-star Kristen Stewart in the new movie The Runaways wasn't a 'big deal'. The 15-year-old star locked lips with the Twilight beauty in their film where they play the roles of Cherie Currie and Joan Jett respectively.

Talking about the role, Fanning said: "I kept all the wardrobe. I can break it out again some day."
She also discussed their kissing scene and she said: "It wasn't that big of a deal. It's just another part of the story."

They gained movie stardom playing wholesome young girls, but when fans see Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart in upcoming "The Runaways," they will find a new side -- a wild one -- to the teen actresses.

The movie, about the all-girl teenage rock band of the same name co-founded by Joan Jett in the 1970s, debuted here at the Sundance Film Festival late Sunday to solid reviews, and it hits movie theaters this coming March.

When it does, there is little doubt "Runaways" will have audiences buzzing because Fanning and Stewart take them back to the era that made "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll" a cliche.

To see "Cat in the Hat" star Fanning, 15, snort drugs, or Stewart, 19, the lovelorn Bella Swan in the "Twilight" movies swig whiskey from a bottle and sling a guitar over her shoulder, may be a challenge for some audiences.

But the real test will come in their portrayal of a lesbian affair between the two lead characters, Jett (Stewart) and lead singer Cherie Currie (Fanning).

"I didn't even think about it. I still haven't even thought about it." Fanning told Reuters in a joint interview with Stewart.

"She's blocked it out," Stewart chimed in, with a laugh.

"No, no," said Fanning. "It was just another thing that was in the story."

The tale of "The Runaways" is as old as rock itself and deals with a rapid rise to stardom, fan adoration that follows, and a descent into drug and alcohol abuse that, for Currie, ended a career, and for Jett, proved an obstacle to overcome.

The Runaways were formed by guitarist Jett and drummer Sandy West in 1975. They were joined by Micki Steele on bass, Lita Ford on lead guitar and Currie -- all in their teens.

Svengali-like manager Kim Fowley pitched them as the first all-girl rock band, and his savvy marketing -- along with some real talent -- gained them ever-increasing popularity in nightclubs. With hits like "Cherry Bomb," their fame grew.

TRIUMPH AND TRAGEDY

But the price of fame can be high, and soon the girls slipped into a haze of booze and pills. Band members began changing, and after about four years, they broke up.

The movie focuses on Currie, her dysfunctional family and her relationship with Jett, and it serves as both a tragic tale about the price of fame and a triumphant story of Jett's career. She went on to major success with The Blackhearts.

In its review, Daily Variety called it "a conventionally enjoyable making-and-breaking-of-the-band saga."

But the brief affair between Jett and Currie will likely get the major share of media attention when the film hits theaters, much as did the gay encounters between Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger in romance "Brokeback Mountain."

Stewart said that focus is off-the-mark. "The fact they made out when they got crazy back in the day...of course people are going to want to know about stuff like that, but what's more interesting is how much they love each other," she said. "It's not really a romantic relationship. It's a friendship."

Indeed, Sundance audiences buzzed about the story of an all-girl band rising to stardom in male-dominated rock music, as well as the performances and the soundtrack, which includes hits of "glam rockers" such as David Bowie.

Fanning, who captured hearts as a child actor in movies such as "I Am Sam," said what drew her to "The Runaways" was portraying a "real person and real-life things that happened."

"I wasn't familiar with the band before. It really opened my eyes to a whole new thing, a whole new time."

Jett told Reuters it was "surreal" seeing the girls play the parts on-screen, and even though the real story took place in the 1970s, it should resonate with today's audiences.

"People get that sense of the misfits and the outcasts, and I think that's the draw...overcoming adversity and not letting other people tell you who you're going to be in life and to follow you're own dreams," she said.
