Kate Middleton Tops Vanity Fair Best Dressed List!


In stunning news, the fashionable Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton has topped the annual Vanity Fair best-dressed list again this year.

Just like 2010 and 2011.

The magazine lauds 30-year-old Kate’s recognition of British designers like Alexander McQueen, Alice Temperley and Matthew Williamson, among others, and for her mix of higher- and lower-end styles, many of which she even re-wears.

She's the people's princess, after all!

Joining the Olympic fashion trend-setter is her brother-in-law, Prince Harry, who makes the list for the first time ever (William did not make the list).

There’s major Hollywood representation on the roster, as well, with newcomer Jessica Chastain also landing atop the list, along with Diane Kruger.

Jay-Z and Alicia Keys represent music, while the New England Patriots' Tom Brady and the N.Y. Giants' Victor Cruz earn top athletic style props.

Matt Lauer, Alice + Olivia’s Stacey Bendet and designer Stella McCartney are also praised for their senses of style in the September 2012 issue.

What do you think? She's been running away with the award for years now, but does Kate Middleton deserve the honor of best-dressed celebrity?

Rob Talks Cosmopolis, Cannes, Nude Scenes, His Dog And More With Interview Germany

Some quotes from this interview were posted in a few articles (like this one), but there are a lot of new questions.

ETA: Better translation thanks to @linhey :)


His fans were very excited when Robert Pattinson visited Berlin a few weeks ago. The actor wasn't here to promote his role of the vampire in "Twilight", but to present David Cronenberg's film adaptation of Don DeLillo's "Cosmopolis".
We spoke with the Englishman about his old and new roles and also about his best and worst moments of last year.

INTERVIEW: Mr. Pattinson, your hair has gotten longer again. You had your hair cut into a buzz cut back then. Was it for your role in "Cosmopolis" or "Bel Ami?"

ROB: Neither, it was for a movie in which I'm playing a soldier who found Sadam Hussein. The shoot was supposed to start in spring but it was postponed until fall.

INTERVIEW
: Your roles left the fantasy genre and have become more realistic, do you agree?

ROB: As an actor, you just have to be very lucky to get great roles and when I like one, I'll take the opportunity. If they do get more realistic, it's either a coincidence or it happens subconsciously.

INTERVIEW: In front of the "Kino International" here in Berlin - where "Comospolis" will premiere this evening - faithful fans have been camping out since yesterday. Do you think about the possibility of scaring them off with such roles [as yours in Comospolis]? Your fans might want to see the vampire Edward Cullen instead of Eric Packer, a billionaire with an identity crisis.

ROB: I don't think that is the case. Since I shot "Bel Ami" something peculiar happened: my fans gave me my favorite books as presents. Yesterday I was in Paris and at the premiere there was a queue of people who wanted to give me books! It's incredible, isn't it?

INTERVIEW:
Are you happy about the books? And do you really take them all with you?

ROB: Of course, there were really excellent books among them. Including one written by Lawrence Ferlinghetti.

INTERVIEW: Do you hope that your fans will learn something from your film adaptations?

ROB: Even if only one person among hundreds was inspired to read the corresponding book and deals with it in greater depth, it would be wonderful. Cinema can be more than pure entertainment, at least sometimes.

INTERVIEW: Is that why you said you don't want to act in teen movies anymore? I read that.

ROB: Yes, I saw that too. Someone misunderstood me or wanted to misunderstand. Who says that "Cosmopolis" wasn't a teen movie? If there is a sex or violent scene in a movie it is automatically classified as a movie for adults, regardless of what the topic is about. Such categories are completely absurd. No, I would never really say something like that!

INTERVIEW: But "Cosmopolis" isn't really a movie for young teens, is it?

ROB: Well, I wasn't easily shocked even as a teenager. And to be honest: every teenager watches hardcore-porn nowadays and probably has seen more blatant things than the stuff in our movie.

INTERVIEW: Yes, that's true. That means parents have no reasons to be apprehensive of "Cosmopolis". All the "Twilight" fans can be sent to the cinema without hesitation!

ROB: Unless the parents have something against dialogues. If they think "Oh no, I don't want my kids to deal with so many words!" then they probably should be apprehensive of our movie!

INTERVIEW: Speaking of movie ratings: you are naked in every movie of yours.

ROB: Right? That's actually true.

INTERVIEW: How do you feel when you have to take off your clothes on set?

ROB: I'm British. I'm always more insecure than others. Everyone is always relaxed on set, even when they shoot a nude scene. I'm always terribly tensed and anxious.

INTERVIEW: And it doesn't get better?

ROB: When I trust the director and absolutely want the movie to end up great, it has gotten easier now. But if that's not the case I'll feel like a prostitute. (laughs)

INTERVIEW: You had an exciting year, what was your most amazing experience and what was the worst?

ROB: Well.. hm, there were many of both. I'd say the fact that our movie got accepted at Cannes is one of the most amazing ones. I'm very grateful for that. You know, I hoped to have a movie in competition there in maybe ten years but all of the sudden that exactly happens now. Absolutely unbelievable.

INTERVIEW: That means you didn't have a plan for your career that would directly lead you to Cannes?

ROB: You know what, ever since the first "Twilight" movie all the journalists asked me if I was afraid to only be cast for certain roles. And then the first movie I shot when I finished the Twilight Saga gets to be in competition at Cannes. That totally stunned me.

INTERVIEW: And what did you think of yourself in your first non-vampire role?

ROB: I love the movie. I think it's my best work. I've always felt uncomfortable watching myself on the big screen so far but in this case it was the total opposite.

INTERVIEW: What did you like most about your role?

ROB: This may sound a bit strange but I like how the words sound when you speak them out loud. The language, the sentences, how they are arranged - it's all beautiful.

INTERVIEW: Which sentence did you like most?

ROB: I thought "That's my peanuts you smell" was amazing. "I believe my sexual organ is retreating into my body right now" is also very great and absurd.

INTERVIEW: Now we spoke about your best moments, but which were the worst ones then?

ROB: My dog got sick, that was very sad (laughs). But really, it was terrible! He's feeling better now, though.

Get Your Bel Ami UK DVD and Blu Ray and the directors talk about Rob

The Bel Ami DVD and Blu Ray is already out in the UK. Did you get your copy yet?

HMV is selling an exclusive Bel Ami Blu-ray and DVD which contain footage of Rob at the Berlin film festival talking about the movie at the press junket as well as on the red carpet which no other discs in the UK contain.

You can buy it HERE. Or get the regular version from amazon UK: DVD | Blu Ray



To celebrate the release of the DVD we decided to do something different. Today, July 26th, at 7PM BST/2PM ET we had watch-a-long of Bel Ami on twitter (if you're not following us yet, do it now --> @RPLife) with exclusive comments from the directors (Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod) about the film, Rob, and a lot more.

But if you missed it, here's what the directors had to say about Rob and the movie. The answers of Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod from the watch-a- long.
In the scene where Georges attacks Virginie Rousset - how did Robert Pattinson and Kristin Scott Thomas prepare for this?
Kristin, Declan, Rob and Nick discussed quite extensively, Nick chose the positions for the kick etc but then it was improvised in the moment.

What was the most difficult scene to adapt from the book to the film?
This wasn’t our job you would need to ask the writer, Rachel!

What was the most challenging thing about shooting in Budapest?
We had to close down the main boulevard, but the weather was perfect

How did Rob and the cast deal with the nudity? Did they have any issues with it?
Nobody had any issue with it they were all very professional when it came to these scenes!

How would you describe each member of your cast in one word?
This question is far too difficult! They are each wonderful in their very different ways.

What scene took the longest to shoot and how long did it take?

The dinner scene took two days as this was a crucial scene and we wanted to get it right

What scenes from the book did you choose not to film and why?
There were many scenes as we wanted to focus on his relationship with the women.

Are there any scenes that you filmed but decided to cut?
No we stuck pretty close to the script as we were really happy with the end result

What was your favourite scene to film? Why did you enjoy shooting this scene more than any other?

The Moulin Rouge was great fun - we loved the dancing and it was a really great location

How was Robert on set with the actress who played Clotilde's daughter?
Robert was great and very relaxed in the scenes shot between the two characters

What did you find most appealing, personally, about that period in Paris? Did you do a lot of research to get the right tone?
It’s very rich and exciting time in Parisian history. We did as much research as we could to get the scenes as accurate to the history as possible

It seems like Georges is similar to modern day ‘celebrities’ who become famous despite having no particular talent –
Yes – Nick, I and Rob were all attracted to this character of the empty man, on to whom others can pin their fantasies. A man who feels he deserves everything, who is rotted by the modern cancer of entitlement.

The women seem to pull the shots at the beginning of the movie but end up betrayed by Georges – why is this?
He uses them to get on, but don’t forget that they use him too.

Jealousy seems to be a main theme between Georges and Madeleine - was this an emotion that Robert and Uma could easily relate to?
I think we all can, don’t you???? Show me someone that never gets jealous and I’ll show you a liar!!!

The newspaper industry in Paris seemed quite corrupt – do you think this draws comparisons to the newspaper industry at the moment?
Yes! It is about the newspapers in close and secret collaboration with the government. They had no mobile phones to tap in those days.

Do you think Georges genuinely loved any of the ladies in the film? Madame Morelle seemed to get very hurt by him...
If Georges wasn’t so in love with himself he would probably be in love with Clothilde.

Of all the pairings in the movie, what’s your favourite relationship in the film?
Georges has probably met his match in Suzanne. I don’t think she’ll give him an easy life!

How long did the movie take to film?
Just the shooting was two months but it was many months in preparation.

You’re respected theatre directors, was it hard making the transition from directing plays to a movie?
We were daunted but once we got going we loved it. By the end of the first afternoon we were addicted and now can’t wait to make another movie!!

Did you have any preconceptions before working with Robert based on the films he had been involved with before Bel Ami?
Only that he was a very good actor, we had no idea how much fun he was. He is great to be with.

What was Robert Pattinson like on set?
A delight and very hard working

Had you watched the Twilight films before working with Robert?
The first one and we absolutely loved it!

Did any of the female cast develop a crush on Robert during filming?
You better ask them!

Is there any interesting stories involving him and fans during the filming of Bel Ami?
We hardly saw any fans. Seriously!! Until the red carpet at Berlin!!

Would you work with Robert Pattinson again?
Absolutely, he was a true professional and a real gentleman

How did you deal with the paparazzi?
We didn’t see them all that much close to the set - they have very long lenses!

Do you have any fond memories from working with Robert?
Every day was a pleasure and we still keep in touch. I hope we will work together soon again.

Can you tell us something about Robert that we might not know?
He is very serious about his work and loves watching movies (other peoples!!) He is deeply articulate…
