They're More a Marketing Strategy than a Couple

chace crawford 1SOLVED!

BuzzFoto – We’re not even sure why the magazines keep pushing it, but this couple who are said to be romantically involved, are actually [anything] but. Sure, they’re having fun playing with the press, but it’s mostly because they are told it would be a good marketing strategy for their career. Everyone around them knows however, that they are just good friends, not lovers. One in all the media buzz is actually rumored to swing the other way. Not Chace Crawford.

Boy, these Twilight kids are stealing all the press right now  from every other wannabe and faux couple! The Twilight Twitterverse practically had a meltdown over the death of their beloved RobSten.

Kristen Stewart got caught sucking face with her married, twice-her-age Snow White director, Rupert Sanders. This guy was not only her director, but the husband of the actress who played Kristen’s mother in the film, Liberty Ross. Ewww.

The bottom line is that although the couple RobSten was a marketing fabrication, Rob and Kristen had become genuinely good friends. They had an agreement, they shared a house together, and she made him look bad. In private, Patinson’s not about to put up with this embarrassment. But he’s going to have to in public! It sure will make for an interesting dynamic when they have to promote Twilight: Breaking Up a Marriage later this year. Will they really be able to pull off a realistic faking of a reconciliation of a faux relationship when the really big bucks are at stake? That last sentence just hurt my brain. The point here is that you shouldn’t believe anything this couple tells you about their relationship in the future. This is about money and legal contracts and movie marketing and the destruction of a friendship, and not about the destruction of a real couple. Well, except for the Sanders couple, of course.

It is so incredibly rare that we get to see actual proof of an affair in the form of a photo, but the paps at Us Weekly were all over this one. If you want to see all the pics and read the entire story, pick up a copy of Us Weekly at newsstands on Friday.

Congrats to VRevis and GMoney for having the first correct answers!

  • LemonDrop

    Zac Efron and Hudgens

  • I’m gonna go with Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, even though I know nothing about either of them, but keep seeing pics of them together. And they have a movie to promote.

  • G Money

    Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart

  • AA

    Ted C. has said over and over that Taylor and Taylor are not a real relationship so I’m going with this one.

    • Yuo

      Yup.Also, Taylor Swift is one of Selena Gomez’s bestfriend, Selena is Taylor L’s ex-girlfriend. If they were really dating, I assume Selena will have problem with that and not hang out with her.
      Sorry for my english.

      • rn

        Thank you for this. Selena Gomez recently dissed “New Moon” when she raved about it previously. Her relationship with Taylor Swift explains one reason for the turnaround.
        Is jealousy at play, here?

    • Jalisa

      But he has also hinted that Rob is Nevis Devine, a dude that does dude on the side. Also we haven’t heard nothing about Tay-Tay in a while.

  • me

    The people who play Chuck and Vanessa on Gossip Girl? Arent they dating?

  • Yuo

    Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen

  • MO

    Blake Lively, the not Chace Crawford gave it away.

  • carey

    There are so many so similar, my first guess was Jake and Reese.. but another one ? Whatcha think ?

  • Tinker

    Hmmm… It’s either Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens or Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart I’d say, can’t really think of any other couples that “the magazines keep pushing”.

    As for swinging the other way, frankly there’s only one of the four I can’t see doing that so they fit on that part too.

  • Lola

    Im going with Blake Lively and Penn Badgley.

  • Word Up

    Ed and Jessica. Duh!

  • robin sparkles

    I’m going to go with Patterson/Stewart. Unlike everyone else mentioned, they’ve never admitted anything – they’re playing with the press by not confirming or denying. Most of the others, including all of the Gossip Girl couples, are “out” as a couple, and court the publicity, rather than the other way around.

  • Yea

    I totally agree with robin. Definitely them. One minute they are dating, the next she’s pregnant, and then they’re engaged. I heard she’s a closeted lesbian. I’m not sure about Rob but I heard from a well placed source that she definitely likes girls. And it would be perfect for their movie if they were together. Movie roles + real life romance/hot couple= box office cake!!!

    • Müller-Lüdenscheid

      But seriously, they don’t play it well then. Meloni/Hargitay from SVU play it well, not them. They are just shy and sort of insecure kids who are overwhelmed about this massive amount of interest, fans, press and so on.

      You see, I don’t care a bit for that Twilight phenomenon but I am pretty sure the leads are both kinda new to this sort of mega-stardom and don’t seem so cool as to pull off a show like this so very perfectly, especially considering their sometimes behaviour on press cons that aren’t anything but perfect and/or professionel.

  • Betsy Paige

    I IMMEDIATELY though of Megan Fox / Brain Austin Green. Makes sense, especially for him because who would even think about him at all if he weren’t linked to her?

  • Yea

    Oh and wasn’t Kristen Stewart in Panic Room with Jodie Foster… HMMMM

  • anon

    taylor and taylor or ed and jessica from gossip girl. kristen had a long-term boyfriend before rob and i don’t think she would think twice about coming out if she were a lesbian. she could care less what people think of her.

  • Freckles

    Taylor and Taylor for sure!

  • Tabitha

    Well Chace “dated” a female country singer to cover for himself. The link? Possibly points to Taylor L “dating” Taylor S a female country singer as a cover for himself.

  • jojoontheradio

    jodie showed kristen the ropes to being a lesbo when they did panic room together!

  • Jason

    All of them. Ever twinkie under 30 working in Hollywood comes off as a David Geffen rentboy.

  • Casey

    I thought of ERW and Alexander Skarsgard, but Taylor and Taylor would work, too.

  • Laura

    I have always thought this about “Robsten” even before this blind

  • tropical

    Kate Bosworth and the Swedish actor.

  • stinkweed

    I don’t think Taylor and Taylor are thought to be “lovers” – just thought to maybe be dating.

    Definitely think this is talking about K-Stew and the owner of the unicorn hair forest.

  • Bingo

    Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly

  • Jalisa

    Looking at all the comments above, It so many possibilites.(sp??)

  • plum

    every young suspect pair:taylor/taylor,Robsten,Zac/Vanessa,”Gossip Girl” Blake& her guy,…

  • Yan

    out of all the couples mentioned.. this can only be either Rob and Kristen or Taylor and Taylor… everyone else has come out as a couple so the magazines aren’t pushing them… they’ve already confirmed.

    my vote, however, is for Robsten.

  • Josh

    My vote is for Rob Pattinson and Kristen.

    I’m pretty sure he likes guys.

  • Divide by Zero

    I’m putting my vote in for Robsten. Down in this part of the world they’re the only ‘couple’ being pushed by the rags, so I wouldn’t have even known about some of the others if it weren’t for this place =D

  • anonymus

    Kristen pings my gaydar like no other.
    Robert had apperently affairs with other actresses on that Twilight set and there are photos of him and his ex-girlfriend before he was famous.

    My guess is definitely Kristen. She’s just too manly.

  • Ally

    There was an article couple of weeks ago from Entertainment Weekly and Kristen Stewart got man when asked about dating Robert. She said:

    “We are, we aren’t, I’m a lesbian.” Hmm.

  • Duh

    It has to be Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson. She’s definately gay and the mumurs about her sexuality have been growing for a while.

  • JJ

    They are learning from Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal! lol

  • Ashley

    Oh yeah… my first thought was Rob & Kristen. I’ve always thought they were just friends but recently I’ve been thinking Kristen may be into girls.

  • Mo

    Rob and Kristen. She was spotted hooking up with a girl at an event in California not long ago.

  • loveprada

    Up to now I’ve narrowed to 3 guesses:

    - Robert and Kirsten. I think SHE is actually on the gaydar! It’s so obvious they’re not a couple. I hold hands with one of my best guy friends (he’s like a brother to me) and that defo doesn’t make us a couple!
    Also, I quote this comment by Ally:
    “There was an article couple of weeks ago from Entertainment Weekly and Kristen Stewart got man when asked about dating Robert. She said:
    “We are, we aren’t, I’m a lesbian.” Hmm.”

    - Ed Westwick and Jessica Sohzr: Ed and Jessica are on Gossip girl too, like Chace, and honestly, if they weren’t dating, would they be getting that much press by themselves? It also made GG ratings boast when the show was going to be “on hold” (read: cancelled). Also, Ed shared apartments with Chace, which is kinda gayspicious.

    - Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens: She would be a nobody without him. Chace has been called “Zac Efron 2.0″ and they both would star in Footlose. They had and still have a lot of media.

    WHY IT’s NOT Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner:

    - They seem very genuine, and the boy’s just 17, give him a break. They don’t have that much of press, because it has a,ready been confirmed by multiple reliable sources. However this comment by Tabitha makes me think otherwise:
    “Well Chace “dated” a female country singer to cover for himself. The link? Possibly points to Taylor L “dating” Taylor S a female country singer as a cover for himself.”

  • Müller-Lüdenscheid

    I am for Rene and Bradley or Jake and Reese. In both cases, the males are heavily suggested to swing to the other side. Plus, those Twilight kids are too obvious. I really don’t think it’s them.

  • Rafael

    Well, I don’t think its Zac and Vanessa. The magazines aren’t pushing ANYTHING about them anymore.
    I honestly think Rene/Brad and Jake/Reese are to obvious. Not to mention, they really don’t need to help their careers.

    I think Rob/Kristen or Taylor/Taylor are good guesses.

  • IvyMades

    Robsten (?).

    I usually have terrible gaydar for women, but I can definitely see her being a lesbian. Not to mention some rumors that cropped up when she was filming the Joan Jett movie..

  • n

    Firstly, i don’t think it’s Taylor×2. When i read this blind, my mind doesn’t immediately go to them, because they aren’t recieving as much publicity as some of the other possible duo’s it could be. Same goes for Ed & Jessica (however, i certainly think Ed may be gay, but this blind isn’t about him.)

    Which leaves me with:

    Robsten- I think it’s Kirsten that “swings” the other way, not Rob. I think this is them, the blind clearly states “are SAID to be involved”. Now, nothing has been confirmed regarding these two, has it? That part of the Blind fit’s perfectly.

    Zac & Vanessa – I’ve never found him remotely attractive, probably because my gaydar goes completely off anytime i see him. He wears more make-up than me, and he certainly looks like a less attractive version of Chace. Vanessa would be a nobody without Zac. However, the press on these two has cooled off, but for a long time they were everywhere, uggh!!

  • what'sup

    has to be the twighlight couple……she is gayer than a clown on crack!

  • mellydubs

    rob and kristen. didn’t gossip girl just have a storyline where olivia (who was in a movie that was based on twilight) had a fake relationship with her costar for the publicity? There is your Chace Crawford connection..

  • Terry

    It’s Kristen Stewart. I did some research and it must be her.
    About year ago she said in an interview that she travel to Africa with her then boyfriend. Well she forgot to mention that they were acompanied by actress Nikki Reed who told that in another interview.
    Why would a young couple take a third person on an vaction? If it were a larger group you could say: ok, couple of friends travel together but who want a third wheel on an romantic Safari trip?

    And then in an another article Nikki listed her favourite songs and she said that one of them is the song that will be played at her and Kristen’s wedding. Sure it could be a joke but it’s too coincidental.
    And on youtube there’s a video of a Vanity Fair photoshoot with the Twilight cast and Kristen and Nikki kiss on the lips.

  • DT

    Sorry to disagree with a lot of you folks, but Taylor and Taylor are all over the magazines and gossip news. They are trying to create buzz for their upcoming movie, Valentine’s Day. For New Moon’s sake and the millions of teenage girls lusting after him, Lautner needs to be seen as a heartthrob. Check the internet. Many people think he’s gay. Their “people” arranged this affair to raise their status and squash rumors. They are both young and their teams are guiding their careers.

    Robsten, maybe…but I think they are dating.
    No one cares about Zach and Vanessa right now.
    Renee and Bradley are old news too.
    Jake and Reese decide their careers/personal lives, not a management team

  • Jalisa

    okay why does everyone think Kristen swings the other way. I think it is Robert….I mean he acts so feminine in all his videos. Kristen to me just seems like a tomboy. Also didn’t Kirsten date a guy name Michael A. for 4 years before Rob. Rob ping my gaydar when he was in harry potter actually. Him and that Daniel Radcliff guy.

    • Jerry

      I totally agree with you, jalisa. I’m surprised to read that many people thinks Kristen is a lesbian but Rob is straight.

      There have been a lot of rumors and blind items about him being into guys (he is Nevis Devine): I’m not saying that Kristen isn’t a lesbian but Rob is not the straightest man alive, lol!

      Probably, they’re bearding for each other while keeping the Twilight shippers happy.

  • Pixie2

    I’m surprised at you gossipmongers – maybe I give you more credit than you deserve! Robsten are the last two young actors to care about appearances. If either of them were gay I don’t think they’d be hiding it, and they don’t seem interested in playing studio publicity games, either. I think it’s Taylor and Taylor. They both seem like they’d play along for marketing purposes. And the BI states that there are rumors about one of them, not that one of them IS gay. There seem to be a lot of rumors about Lautner…or, at least, speculation.

    • Jalisa

      when a studio tells you to do something, you usually do it, regardless if you want to or not. Yes, I agree Tay- Tay is fake, But they never came out and said they were dating. They never even implied it. Robsten has implied it more that once. So I think it is them. Also, you haven’t heard rumors about Rob being gay…They go back to the days when he was on Harry Potter.

  • It’s Taylor and Taylor. Check out this article:

    ”Lautner Refuses To Discuss Or Dismiss Sexuality Stories”

    Taylor Lautner has sparked new rumours he’s still figuring out his sexuality after refusing to deny gay reports in a new Rolling Stone magazine interview.

    The Twilight hunk faces tough questions as the cover star of the new issue of the music magazine and, after playing coy about his rumoured romance with singer Taylor Swift, he fails to address suggestions he might be gay.

    As interviewer Neil Strauss probes him about his sexuality, Lautner says, “Ok, I see where you’re going. Interesting choice,” adding cryptically, “There’s a lot of rumours out there.”

    Refusing to confirm or deny his romance with Swift, Lautner also tells the magazine the two Taylors are “close”.

  • Po' Boy

    Taylor Lautner is smart enough to discern what the interviewer is driving at. He probably “internally” dismisses him as a sissy; but he wouldn’t say it. The press is too powerful.
    He has to play the game.

  • Razbo

    Zac, he fits the picture

  • Dee

    Janet Jackson and Collin Farrell..(sp ck)

  • des

    Zac and Vaness. HSM is over, move on!

  • Megan

    The blind item DOESN’T SAY that one of the members of the ‘couple’ is gay while the other is straight.

    It actually says that “One in all the media buzz is actually rumored to swing the other way”.

    Rumored. I would think it’s Robsten but there are rumors about both Kristen and Rob being gay….

    My vote is for Zac and Vanessa.

    • Terry

      Every male actor is accused of being gay.
      Actresses on the other hand rarely. But Kristen has been rumored to be lesbian from the beginning. Even people who have no gaydar guess that she’s a lesbian.

  • Ashley

    And the relationship between Rob Pattinson and Tom Sturridge has also been widely discussed on the media since before the Twilight phenom started.

    Ted Casablanca has strongly hinted that Rob is ‘Nevis Devine’ an actor who used to bring his boyfriend to Hollywood parties.

    Rob and Tom were very often photographed together. The last time Rob and Stu were photographed together was during the filming of “Remember Me”.

    Kristen is probably a lesbian but that doesn’t make Rob straight. I think that this BI is not about them.

    • REd

      So according to you best friends are also lovers.
      Having friends of the same sex doesn’t make a person gay. Sturridge is Robert’s childhood friend.

      • Jalisa

        Rob being gay was always rumor, even when he was on harry potter, but when he became Edward nobody mention them rumors anymore except for Ted Casablanca.

  • Razbo

    It is
    Zac Efron
    look at the picture the eyes have it.

  • Lisa

    Rob and Tom Stu were reported to act more ‘flirty and lovey dovey’ then you would expect from two men who were straight….

  • Lila

    “but this couple who are said to be romantically involved,are actually [anything] but”

    Doesn’t this elimenate the 2 Taylors and Robsten because neither are said to be romantically involved just rumored to be involved? Neither has said they’re together.

    Also Robsten seems too obvious.

    That would leave Zanessa, Bradley Cooper and Renee Zellweger, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyellenhall, etc

  • Lise

    Since they mention Chace, how about his co-stars the supposed on&off screen couple of Blake Lively/Penn Badgley. SHE (not he) has always set off my gaydar. They grew up together as friends but never “dated” until GG started filming.

  • Claire

    LOL, Ted Casablanca is cheering this “reveal” for all the extra hits it will get him from Twihards begging to be reassured that Robsten is real.

  • ThatOneGuy

    And this gay man’s intuition is validated.

    Also: OMG!!1!! OMG!!!111!!! TED C IS A BIG FAT LAIR!1!!!1!!

    Misspellings intentional.

  • Jalisa

    Duh!!! Ever since New Moon there haven’t been a sighting of Rob and Kristen. Also Rob was with Katy Perry and her boyfriend the other night at a club that is what the websites are saying. I knew it was fake. It was just for the movies. Even when Brad and Angie was hiding their relationship at first, After the Mr. and Ms. Smith movie, it was still sighting of them everywhere, cause they were real.

  • HollyG.

    I would just like to point out that “rumored to swing the other way” is not the same as “swings the other way.” Technically, they’re both rumored to be gay…as are a bazillion other celebs. That doesn’t make it true.

    Also, saying that “one of them is rumored to be gay” does not automatically ensure lifetime membership in the Hetero Club for the other one.

  • Fandango

    So is it K Stew or Rob that swings the other way?

  • Yuo

    I bet K-stew swings the other way.

    she gives off lesbo vibes ever since I saw her in panic room.

  • NotSoFast

    FIY: This isn’t solved; it’s not them.

    • Claire

      I was wondering exactly how this was “solved”? The one about Tiger Woods doing that magazine cover in exchange for killing that Enquirer story about his affair, that is what I’d considered a solved blind item, something beyond the level of trusting what is declared so without any real explanation or proof they can share with everyone.

      • Jalisa

        Its beyond solved. Have you seen or heard from Robsten since the New Moon film. Buzz Photo hasn’t been wrong with their solving yet.

  • iknowit

    strange because i actually know these 2 were a couple at one time…not sure if they still are.

  • Emily

    Yeah I do believe they were for real and wires/are have been crossed in all the Twilight hoopla.

  • Truth

    This is absolute truth. Watch out for robsten fans coming out the the woodwork to fight for their fav fake couple. This will be crushing to some of them once they learn the truth.

  • cat

    Just curious – how exactly was it solved? And what is the link to Chace Crawford? I guess I am dense….

  • ch

    really??

    i wonder what Ted of the awful truth has to say abt that….. lol

    but i think both of them are bi

  • tskkkk

    Their managers are doing that.

  • n

    yay! i guessed right. I think K-stew is gay, but i just am not getting that vibe from Pattinson. I too am wondering what the Chace Crawford connection is & how this is solved. BG, please enlighten us

    • Jalisa

      Chace Crawford doesn’t have to be connected. They are just saying its not him…If you want a connection maybe because teen girls love Rob and Chance. Also Chace crawford is rumored to be gay or bi sexual, so maybe thats why. Perez Hilton outted him like 2 years ago but Chace management denied it. Also prolly like Kirsten and Rob was costars and supposly got together just like people were saying Chace and Ed supposly got together.

  • Rafael

    Obviously Rob is gay, though I wouldn’t be shocked if Kristen were bi. If anyone has watched Twilight with the cast commentary turned on, you would fully understand why I think he is gay. He seems unhealthily obsessed with not seeming manly enough. Actually, I’m pretty sure that Rob is “Jackie Bouffant”. They even directly mention the word “Bouffant” in reference to Rob on the Twilight cast commentary. ;)

    • Jalisa

      I’ve always thought that Rob was Nevis Devine, the gay guy because I thought that Zac Efron was Jackie Bouffant…Zackie…Jackie and Bouffant(hair) and Zack was in the movie hairspray.

  • Ash

    Kristen def swings the other way I couldn’t see her w a man…she reminds me so much of Jodie Foster too!!!

  • Daluv

    without a doubt its Robert Pattinson. Doesn’t it seem odd that this guy at age 23 claims he can’t get a date. Total bull. Hey he doesn’t
    have to marry or fall in love on a date…but to suggest he can’t get one is bogus. It’s a lame excuse not to be attached to any available female who will discover he’s into guys. And risk a beard blowing his cover. So it’s easier and convenient for the media to fabricate he and Kristen are dating ..then he can be on the down low.

  • farrah

    Kristen Stewart. Rob is so scruffy and doesn’t care about his appearence to be gay.

  • Alex

    I think both are gay/bisexual.

  • Cara

    This is absurd, no way is it Rob and Kristen. Have you never seen the way they look at each other in photos and videos? Their acting skills are definitely not that good. The studio pushed to keep them OUT of the press, not in it, and they’ve been totally under the radar. Taylor and Taylor is far more likely – the fake ones blurt to the press, the real ones keep it quiet, duh.

  • Juliet

    After what has transpired of late it’s so obviously Taylor & Taylor !

  • Jasmine

    It dosen’t matter what has transpired as of late. They could be gay bestes. I believe they are BOTH Gay as can be! (or at the very least, BI) The commentary, the way Rob talked and laughed was so frigging gay! I’ve watched videos of him too…very gay mannerisms. And he seems to almost be repulsed by women except as for friends only. As for Kristen, she’s a Jodie Foster clone. I think personally Rob is Gay and Kristen is probably Bi.

  • Jasmine

    Also, on the commentary, Rob was so obsessed with his appearance. How he looked, his hair, how his face looked.
    I definitely like him and think he’s great…..I wish him all the best. But I do think he’s gay. And so what?
    Good for him! Come out with it already Rob!
