Robert Pattison Almost Gets Crushed by an Elephant

Don’t worry Twihards, he’s OK!

While filming a scene for his upcoming Water for Elephants film, Robert Pattinson reportedly escaped getting crushed by an elephent on set.

According to a source: ”The script called for the elephant to step forward while swinging her trunk from side to side, but Rosie got her signals mixed up. Instead, she sat down on her big butt, lifted her front legs – then rolled over. Before anyone could react, Robert slid right down the elephant’s back. It could have been a disaster if she’d rolled over on him – but he got lucky, landing face first in a pile of dirt and mud. He was filthy, but unharmed.”

Pattinson is filming the movie with Reese Witherpoon, and she got quite amused.

The soruce added: ”Everyone on the set cracked up – especially Reese, who was laughing so hard she couldn’t catch her breath.”

Lea Michele: Glamour Magazine October 2010

Lea Michele rocks a striped shirt on the latest cover of Glamour magazine. Here’s what the Glee star opened up about:

On her friendship with cast member Amber Riley: “We’re both big personalities, and you definitely would think we’d bump heads. But she has taught me more about myself than anyone. She inspires me, she protects me, she makes me laugh, she tells me not to take myself so seriously. She’s my Mama Amber.”

On what’s going to happen to Rachel next season: “I think we’re going to see [what she’s like] with a boyfriend. She’s kind of inexperienced still, and I would like to see them together for a bit as a couple. I want to meet her dad—I really do. I think that they’re saving that, though.”

On her ideal romantic evening with actor Theo Stockman: “Scary movie, pizza, being at home, maybe having friends over and a great bottle of wine. I like it when a movie scares the s—t out of me. That, for me, is just the best.”

Lindsay Lohan: Vanity Fair October 2010

Lindsay Lohan covers the October 2010 issue of Vanity Fair – the interview was taken before she headed to jail. The actress admitted irresponsibility in this candid interview. Here’s what she shared:

On her alleged alcohol addiction: “If I were the alcoholic everyone says I am, then putting a [scram] bracelet on would have ended me up in detox, in the emergency room, because I would have had to come down from all the things that people say I’m taking and my father says I’m taking — so that says something, because I was fine.”

On denying drug abuse: “I’ve never abused prescription drugs. I never have — never in my life. I have no desire to. That’s not who I am. I’ve admitted to the things that I’ve done — to, you know, dabbling in certain things and trying things ’cause I was young and curious and thought it was like, O.K., ’cause other people were doing it and other people put it in front of me. And I see what happened in my life because of it.”

On hanging out with the wrong crowd: “So many people around me would say they cared for the wrong reasons. A lot of people were pulling from me, taking from me and not giving. I had a lot of people that were there for me for, you know, the party.”

On her career being far from over: “I want my career back. I know that I’m a damn good actress, and it’s been my passion since I was a child, and I know that when I care about something, I put 100 percent and more into it. … I want the respect that I had when I was doing great movies. And if that takes not going out to a club at night, then so be it. It’s not fun anyway. I don’t care. It’s the same thing every time.”
