Fan Encounter With Rob and Kristen from New Years Eve

The "little ugly doll toy" she asked Rob to sign



I'm originally from the South Coast of England (where my best mate still lives) so we rented out a chalet on the Isle of Wight.

Let me just state, there was NO Stalking involved, I am the only person in my group that loves Twilight and Kristen.

We went to Ventor to a couple of the pubs on new years eve. There aren't a huge amount of pubs and we were moving on to the next one when we stopped to get cash out. The guy in front of us looked familiar, and then i twigged it was Tom Stu!

Sure enough Rob was just behind him and Kristen walked past us with 2 other English girls (she is so little).

I couldn't believe it but i didn't say anything to them at the time. I was in shock a little (also mildy tipsy!) we continued with our pub crawl stopping off for a couple more drinks in another pub.

The final pub we got to at about ten to eleven in the evening and it was lovely so we decided to stay. Whilst goofing around with my best mate and having a smoke, I realised we were standing right in front of the Brit Pack!

Kristen hung out with the girls most of the time i was there (she didn't seem to get bothered much at all and was chatting away)

Later we went inside and I bumped into Rob (not intentional I swear!) the place was packed and small we stood right beside Kristen and her group watching the band play. They were all kinda mock dancing but then so were we as many drinks had been consumed at this point.

I went to buy more drinks at the bar, and some bloke was asking Rob for a Picture, he very politely declined... but said he would sign something.

When i walked past I asked if he could sign a little ugly doll toy we had brought with us, which he did.
Que a very interesting drunken conversation.
The doll was blue and Rob wanted to know if it was racist to sign it! I laughed and said 'I didn't think so' he asked if we were having a good night. I replied by saying yes but I'm a probably a bit too pissed! he said 'yeah me too'!.

The clock chimed in twelve to old lang time there was kissing and hugging all round( sorry to say Rob and Kristen didn't appear to kiss in the pub).

I went outside for another smoke after twelve, and Kristen Walked out with the two girls....
I went up to her and said something like 'Hey I don't want a picture or anything' which made her instantly relax a little and i continued on to say that the runaways was my favourite film of this year, before i corrected myself and said last year ( i got a laugh ;) and that her performance inspired me to ask for a guitar for christmas from my boyfriend.

She said that was *beep* awesome and Joan would be thrilled to hear that'
we chatted a little bit more before i said thanks happy new year, blah blah blah.


They all left at about quarter past twelve, we stayed at the pub drinking... a reporter came up and asked us some stuff and I told him to get bent! (drinking makes me feisty!!)


She added later with the picture

I did say in my post they didn't appear to kiss but only because their group was large and rob was much nearer the bar. however, yes i was kissing my boyfriend so they may have kissed or hugged when i wasn't looking (let me add i wasn't staring the whole time, but inside the pub Kristen was literally next to me, so it was hard not to look a bit!)

It seems reliable, they asked her to post a picture of the doll and she did.

  1. LOL, What an awesome fan encounter, such a funny and cool story. And this fan was really cool to them. I'm glad they didn't asked for pics, just an autograph. Sounds like they had a pretty fun night! I hope they will be able to go next year without too much hoopla.

  3. What a neat experience! Sounds like Rob and Kristen had a pretty great low key night togther..and whether they kissed at midnight or not doesn't really matter I'm sure they did enough kissing later to make up for it!

  5. I'm sorry, but did she actually type "old lang time" instead of "Auld Lang Syne" ?? That cracked me up.

  6. This is what I call an awesome fan encounter, respected their privacy, did not give out locations, friendly, this to me is a true fan. I am happy she got her little ugly doll signed and I am glad she told the reporter off as well. Bravo Lia, I hope you were the fan that is in this post. You are an inspiration to Rob's and Kristen's true fandom.
