Robert Pattinson: Acceptance non-kiss was Kristen's idea

MTV Shows

June 01, 2009, (Sawf News) - The idea to put viewers on the edge by going through the motions of reenacting the Twilight kiss that earned them the Best Kiss Golden Popcorn came from Kristen Stewart, says co-star Robert Pattinson.

"[The acceptance] was Kristen's idea. My ideas were so terrible they were rejected," he tells Entertainment Tonight of their non-kiss. "So I'm happy she helped me two minutes before it happened."
"That was my big idea. I'm not going to kiss you!" Kristen endorses.

As Pattinson and Stewart walked on to the stage to receive their award, they first exchanged hugs and greetings with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, who announced them as winners. Next, Pattinson got rid of gum as he readied to be kissed. The two co-stars faced each other and braced for the kiss. Stewart then edged closer as Pattinson closed his dreamy eyes…

With their lips inches apart, Stewart turned to the microphone and said to the audience, “Thank you so much!”

'New Moon' trailer highlight of MTV Movie Awards for 'Twilight' fans

"Twilight" stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner presented the trailer below for the much-anticipated "Twilight" sequel "New Moon" at last night's MTV Movie Awards. And judging by the reaction, this second installment in the series of films based on the Stephenie Meyer bestsellers will be another smash hit.

"Twilight" won five MTV Movie Awards (that's probably a new record, but I haven't officially checked the numbers): best film, best female performance (Kristen Stewart), best male breakthrough (Robert Pattinson), best kiss (Stewart and Pattinson) and best fight (Pattinson and Cam Gigandet). Lautner also contended in the breakthrough race against Pattinson. And the song "Decode" by Paramore was bested by "The Climb," written and sung by Miley Cyrus in "Hannah Montana: The Movie."


"Twilight" grossed $351 million worldwide with $149 million more in domestic DVD sales alone. This first film of the franchise is contending at the upcoming Saturn Awards as well. It competes for best fantasy film against "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian," "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," "Hancock," "The Spiderwick Chronicles" and "Wanted."

"New Moon" is scheduled for release on Nov. 20, just one day shy of a year since "Twilight" launched Pattinson and Stewart into the stratopshere. The sequel continues the star-crossed love story of vampire Edward (Pattinson) and the mortal Bella (Stewart). Edward is forced to abandon Bella to save her from his family. And sheepish Jacob (Lautner) transforms from her best friend to a hunky hero in wolf's clothing.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart Tease Audience After Winning Best Kiss

 

If Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart didn't win the 2009 MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss, the universe might have ripped in half. Of all the categories in which "Twilight" was nominated this year, the one that brought vampire Edward Cullen and his high school love Bella Swan into a lip-locking embrace seemed like a surefire win.

And that's exactly what happened at the Gibson Amphitheatre on Sunday night. Beating out competitors like the lovebirds from "Slumdog Millionaire" and "High School Musical 3," Pattinson and Stewart garnered the Golden Popcorn statue and took the stage together.

Pattinson leaned into the mic and announced that he had to take the gum out of his mouth. OME — were these two about to re-enact their big screen kiss for the MTV viewers? It wouldn't have been the first time. In 2007, Will Ferrell and Sacha Baron Cohen made out passionately onstage. Could it be happening again?
Pattinson and Stewart stared at each other, steeling themselves for a kiss. He moved in, she moved in. They closed their eyes. They touched noses. And then ... Stewart turned to the mic and declared, "Thank you so much!"

OK, so give the "Twilight" duo credit for being pretty darn good actors. Disappointing? Sure. Funny? You bet. At least they won a richly deserved honor. And we'll all have a chance to see Edward and Bella suck face a lot more this fall, when the second film in Stephenie Meyer's vampire franchise, "New Moon," hit theaters.
