Desiree - as I just said to your post on FB, DO NOT BELIEVE A WORD OF IT. In fact, take my advice, and don't buy magazines of this type, or even look at them. Don't look at their websites, or any similar websites. THE MAJORITY OF THE STORIES IN THESE PLACES ARE COMPLETE FABRICATIONS.

I used to do journalism, and although I never practised it in the mainstream (thank the Good Lord for that - I would never have survived), I learned a lot about what goes on. Much is made out about truth when you start studying journalism, and about the ethics of reporting something truthfully. In practise, it is not at all like that. While I was studying, I read something written up by the editors of one of these kinds of mags, and he said in effect, "you've been told it's all about truth, but when it comes to tabloids, it's all about sales.".

Most media organisations, and this even goes for reputable ones, will write what sells. Mags like US Weekly will be more scurrilous than say, The New York Times, but there is always an element of talking it up to make people buy it. Every media outlet, news show, etc, does this to a certain extent, but mags like US Weekly do it as a matter of course. It is how they sell their mags. Next week they will probably have an article saying that Rob and Kristen are so much in love and have been looking at engagement rings. And I'm not exaggerating. It will happen in a short while, I assure you.

If you want to understand how journalism works, seeing Orson Welles' masterpiece Citizen Kane is a good place to start. It shows you just how much you can do with a newspaper or magazine. Hey, you can convince people to go to war, if you want, and it has happened before.

My heart is hurting right now, both for Kristen and for Rob. We've all been riding a wave since Cannes, and with so many wonderful little drops of happy showering us, well, we all knew something would try to take away the happy. It always does.

First and foremost, don't believe a word of it. US Weekly has had Rob&Kristen married, divorced, married, broken up, pregnant and kidnapped by aliens so many bloody times, it's freaking ridiculous! And now, again with their 'sources close to' Rob&Kristen and their 'allegedlys' and 'reportedlys' to cover their lying behinds, this whole thing just makes me want to vomit, preferrably right onto the desktop of the so-called editor of this BS magazine. And SHAME on People and EOnline for picking it up and running with it. The so-called proof they have (the picture printed on the front page of the magazine) is clearly photoshopped and has been debunked as such. In the photo, "Kristen" is missing her right ear and Rupert Sanders wife has confirmed that the body in the picture is hers and not Kristen's. On top of all of it, US Weekly has taken down the article from their website. My only source of nerves at this point is Gossip Cop. While they aren't confirming or denying anything, they are reporting that something supposedly (there's that qualifier again)happened between Kris and Rupert, but not a relationship of any kind. I have no idea what that means or how to translate it.

What I know right now, what I feel in my heart is that this whole thing is an absolute clusterf*#) of a situation that is going to hit Rob&Kris hard, as well as Rupert Sanders and his family and that I hold tight to what I know in my heart is true; Rob&Kris share something beautiful and passionate and we've born witness to that over and over and over again. They continue to show us, those of us who are paying attention anyways, everyday that they are very much in love with one another. We are also witnessing what I think is the number one reason why they keep that so close; because it will always make them a target, no matter what.

Hi everyone.

First of all, I read the Kristen and Rupert rumor, and it just makes me friggin' sick. I already posted this at HH Sisters, but here it is again:

http://www.teen.com/2012/07/25/random-s ... t-sanders/

Needless to say, I'm pretty sick that this GD stuff got started, and you don't want to know how I feel about the person who started this BS, but I'm damn sure pissed that them, and whatever happens to them, they effin' deserve it.

My mood isn't helped by the fact that I had nothing at work today, and I had to spend 6 hours reading my library books when I'd have rather have been doing something else. At least I got my grocheries tonight, but I have almost no money left, so needless to say I'm not in the greatest of moods, and then the Kristen/Rupert crap.

I'm gonna make my something to eat later and then I'll be off to bed, hoping for a better day tomorrow.

I'll be back later.

Lynne~ Thanks for the advice but I don't buy those magazines or any for that matter. Nor do I care to watch ET or any of those shows I just don't care about celebrities.

As far as Rob & Kris deep down I have always just hoped they worked out. What I do read is the Yahoo News. That is my source for what is going on in the world and when I saw that and read the article I was a little saddened and only hoped that it wasn't true which is why I came here. I knew the HH point out the facts with the photoshop and other things I didn't see.


Thanks girls. I hope all is well for everyone.

Good morning everybody!!!

I’m still a bit in a festival haze…I’m trying to get my brain started again but it isn’t easy…

Anyway, I dreamed about you girls last night… we were out camping with these big caravans and everything got lost… even Jennifer’s daughter… it was so silly but we brought so much clutter that we couldn’t find what we needed…Caryn’s husband joined us but he wasn’t really helpful as he and the Cullen men we laughing at us for loosing everything…

Anyway…

First off, Desiree, Lynne and Caryn are so right…US weekly has been making stuff up constantly. Not even 10% of theirs stories are true…just check out the pictures from last weekend, or the last two weekends, Rob and Kris looked perfectly happy together. Their total body language is so directed towards each other that I don’t think it will even be a slither of though in Kris’s mind to look at other men like that…

Lynne, yes I am looking for an other job but it isn’t as easy as it used to be. With the economy being such a mess…I just have to be patient.

Caryn, I’m just hoping for a release of a few of those pictures…
Normally I check on rumors like that at Gossipcop, but sadly they can’t even deny it, they are reporting that something did happen and that Kris freaked out by her lack of judgment…Normally Gossipcop does check things thoroughly but now… I tend to believe what I see from the real papz pics and they showed a very happy Rob and Kris over the last two weekends…I’m happy at least Rupert’s wife is speaking up for them…

Jaclyn, I’m afraid there isn’t much I can do with my leg that waiting till it’s over. The doc said when it isn’t healing quickly enough I should go to a specialist, so I’m waiting till after this weekend…

Ann-marie, can’t you order the dvd online? I know amazon has it available. Or will it be just as long…

Suzan, yes, the zwarte cross is normally 3 days for visitors and 4 for campers. Because it’s very close to my parents home I sleep at home and drive to the festival, that way I get good sleep and shower.
Yes, I drove home after work with the window down, I could just feel my skin burning up in the sun… it was so warm… I spend some time after 4 on my balcony enjoying the sun…

Tonise, enjoy your relaxing time…

Alright I better start doing something!!!
See you all later…

OK, now that I've cooled down, I think that I can add to the Kristen/Rupert stuff.

It seems initally that people were trying to put the blame for this rumor on Rupert's wife. Now, though some (hopefully) reputable sources, she's saying that the photos of Kristen are photoshopped, and if Kristen and Rupert got a bit too "affectionate", she seemingly doesn't see it as a big deal and she's speaking up for them on their behaths and trying to trash the tabloid rumors, but it's still going back and forth depending on sources.

I'd rather believe in the reputable sources and what I've seen with Kristen and Rob and Kristen and Rupert, rather that rumor mongers. But if I'm the person who made this up and it's proven to be a lie, I hope that his or her soul is protected with depleted uranium armor, because that person will be taking a beating as far as getting crapped on by the fans, and I can't say that I'd be too sorry for this person, because as one of my friends put it, he/she picked the wrong fandom to screw with.

I'll be making my breakfast before bed soon (yeah, and oxymoron, but I can't figure out anything better to eat before I go to bed), and I'll be off to bed.

I'll be back later :)

Just happened to catch that mag rumor online today. It'll shake out soon. Rather disgusting if this was meant to drum up sales.

Hey everyone

I cannot beileve what that trashy mag has published I do not beileve it kristen woudont cheat on rob ever they love eachother too damn much Im just so upset with the rumours and clearly photoshopped photos ive sent a strongly worded email I had to vent as I was typing it I just felt so sick inside I mean I guess theres the slim chance she made a mistake but I cant think of that right now

Heres what I wrote


To whoever it concerns

As a dedicated Twilight and Robsten fan I cannot beileve what I have woken up too.Clearly you have nothing better to do than to try to hurt Innocent people,Rob and Kristen and Rupert and Liberty not to mention there children and of course theres the fans.

While you might think that us fans are stupud we know photoshopped photos when we see them and quite frankly we can do a better job.Then theres the facts this allegedley took place when Kristen was with her dad In a different state at a golf club.

If she was going to cheat do you really think she would do this In public where she would be papped.The papparazzi follow her every move so there would be hundreds of photos not just a few.They surely would of gone public as soon as they had the proof and blew the lid of the thing

Of course the press dont care they dont like happy couples that are In love so they have to try and tear them down by pettt lies.

Of course you have no morals at all because Its all about money and how many magazines you sell.

I just wanted to tell you and every other robsten fans feels right now from this fabricated lies

No we will wait to hear from Kristen and Rob

Thanks for reading and hurting everyone Involved

Hey everyone.

I'll be doing a formal post this week but I just had to come real quick and comment now about the whole magazine snafu that broke this morning.

I didn't believe it when I first heard it (and I still don't for the most part), but I'm concerned about that "something" Gossip Cop is mentioning. I really don't know what to make of that and it's bothering me. GC is usually reliable so I can't help thinking about it. I just don't know.

Ah, this is deeply, deeply disappointing.

My sympathies go first to Sanders' wife and children.
  • "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected," she said in a statement to People. "This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob.

    "I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."
The pics and story of this tryst making its way around aren't looking good.

Is this the first time she said she loved him publicly? What a shame.

I remember when I was young.

My advice to Rob: get your best friend, slug down beer and shots until you get stinko, lance the boil, get angry, let it all out, and give your anger a trial run first before you let it out on Kristen. Once words are spoken they can't be taken back. Wish I could give better advice. If that doesn't help, at least you got stinko with a friend.
