The Fair Maiden and her Prince...

HB photo shoot of 2009 *theme* Snow White and her Prince?

After my few bitch-slaps and snark smack-downs - I've decided to go all mellow (just for today) as we wave goodbye to September and look forward to October and what will most likely start Breaking Dawn promotion for all cast involved (Including Rob and Kristen, who will hopefully be almost wrapping up Snow White and the Huntsman to join her man for the up and coming premieres.)

But first...
I can almost hear the bitching and whining already, because it's been announced that Rob will be with Ashley Greene (Alice) in Paris in October for Breaking Dawn promotions. The scandal, the shock, the complete and utter disgrace - why oh why oh why? Do you remember last year when Kristen had to promote key events with Taylor Lautner (Jacob) while Rob continued working on Water for Elephants? Yes the wailing and whining was just as bad. How dare Kristen promote without Rob with, with..Jacob? He's not even a key factor in the movie anymore - Bella choose Edward!!

Stunning Snow White...

The problem i see is that some could understand why Rob was not able to fulfil all his obligations last year, due to working on another movie. But how dare he then a year later, go off and promote without Kristen? It's very simple, well for most anyway. Kristen will do promotional work, of course she will. As long as she is available for the key main premieres - US and UK; as well as some smaller events that will need her gorgeous face in the vicinity of Rob's. Because 'husband and wife' promotion for Breaking Dawn will bring in the crowds. 

Some fans really need to get their heads out from up their asses and understand this, it's not rocket science. Kristen has SWATH obligations that will see her into possibly end of October/beginning of November. Then she is free to smile, wave, sign autographs. Give press junkets and sound bites, to anyone who wants to hear how 'wonderful the wedding was and how easy the honeymoon was to create' You can't please everyone and it's no use blaming Summit for every single disappointment that happens. 

Kristen and Rob; if they have to do solo promotion with other cast members so what? In the movie they are together and they will team up at the most important events, where all members of the cast will be in attendance. I don't go off on one every single time they appear in London and i can't get to see them, because of real life obligations. I would much rather watch from the comfort of my home and bask in the photos, that stem from such events. *shrugs* I can support the movies equally well from my vantage point, so there. 
Breathe, relax, chill and stop fretting.

Now, onto more important things...
Judging by the above photograph lol, poor Rob. Once he claps his eyes on some of the photos that came from shooting yesterday on Marloes Sands Beach in Wales, he will be hot footing it across the ocean to be near his beloved. Because that gorgeous dress on Kristen is all kinds of sinful, as it's contrast on her white skin, sent shivers down many a man's and woman's spine.

Kristen with a white stallion on SWATH...

Rob with Rose the Elephant on WFE...

I love the contrast of those two photographs, not to mention the love the two actors have for animals in general. On WFE last year; Rob worked with an menagerie of animals, from Tai who played Rose in the epic Circus adventure to Lions, Tigers and Giraffe's OH MY! Kristen seems to be getting up close and personal with a white Stallion that, judging by the set photos yesterday, is the same white horse who leads her into battle against the Queen with her trusty friend(s) The Huntsman and her Prince Charmant, along with a dozen or so soldiers. 

I love the fact that the movie roles they take on, mean something to the both of them and not just a quick fix to earn cash. While many can complain (oh and they do) that Rob has been "out of work" since the end of July, not many actually know his status at all. You can question and even bitch, whine and complain, about why he is not signed onto another movie right now, when he has obviously been working. Interviews perhaps? A few bits and pieces of promotional material for Breaking Dawn is a given. But mainly, he has been obligated to finish ADR/Post-Production for Cosmopolis, which was his last movie. Kristen has been charming everyone with her feisty Snow White; decked out in body armour one minute, then looking demure and wet in a off the shoulder gown, complete with trousers/pants and boots underneath the next.

But, but...we want to see them together, why can't we see them together?

happily together Eclipse LA Premiere 2010...

They are all kinds of happy together, all kinds of loving and adoring together and all kinds of serene and shy together. Is it too much to ask for them to be together now? I hear the cries and shake my head. Their love for me, has spanned almost three years. And in that time, they have battled all kinds of bullshit and fuckery from both sides and still maintain an air of complete and utter coolness. They understand the demands of their jobs, they understand the demands of their fans. But to expect them to always please those who expect so much of them, is ridiculous. I don't need constant updates of the whereabouts of Rob or Kristen. I don't need to see the continuous loop of papped photos, taken of a very annoyed Rob travelling through airports, to start my day of with a bang. 

My fair maiden i have found you...

Wherever Rob or Kristen are - the other half is never far from their thoughts. Sure, they travel a lot and work most of the time on their chosen careers, but each is committed to one and other and knows deep down inside, how important their work and private life is. Fans may pick apart their relationship like they own them and haters may pick about their relationship because they hate them, but really, when you think about it. The only people laughing at this compulsive obsessive behaviour, is the two people in the centre of this drama - Rob and Kristen.

You think they are not laughing at the stupidity of some people? The over the top concern because they spend some time apart and are not joined at the hip like twins?

Love captured in your eyes, my Prince...

Didn't i say i was going to be mellow...oops LOL. 
*cough ahem cough*

Many years ago; a young dark haired maiden, stumbled across a Prince who looked lost and dejected, because life had played a cruel joke on him. Yes, try as he might, he could not get people to understand he had a very special talent and a very tortured soul, underneath the façade of skin and bone. And only wanted people to like him because he was good and pure. This fair and gentle maiden; with eyes the colour of a calm sea; decided she would befriend this bewildered Prince, and set upon becoming his friend. Little did the girl, with skin as white as snow know the handsome, yet shy Prince, had fallen in love with her. After watching from a far as she wandered through life, confused and complexed. She was after all, a very clever maiden and had found it troublesome, meeting people who were both genuine and kind. 

As their friendship grew, so did the fair maiden's feelings towards the very handsome and very clever Prince. For she found not only could they talk until sunset, but that they had similar tastes in books and music as well. Not only that, but they also shared a bond of mutual respect and admiration - for the Prince adored her so. Soon it became apparent, that the fair maiden had feelings for the Prince, even though her people forbid it - as did his. But their love was too strong and despite the horrible voices of rejection, the Prince finally told the fair maiden of his feelings. Bestowing all his worthy goods he had to offer, at her feet. The fair and gentle maiden, with hair as dark as the night and eyes as green as the sea. Her skin pale and her heart true, accepted his love. For she loved him just as much. 

And they lived happily, ever after.

The fair maiden and her Prince...

There...i told you i would get to the sappy, mellow bit in the end. Everything about Rob and Kristen's love is just as pure and true, as their love for the work they do. If you are going to spend all your time worrying about when they will see each other again, then you will be chasing your tails forever. Sit back and leave the romance to the two people who are living it, loving it and respecting it. 

Have a lovely stress free and angst free weekend. And remember; being a fan does not mean you have to eat, sleep, breathe Rob and Kristen. Because that's just scary in so many ways.

Hold on tight Princess - it's gonna be a bumpy ride...
