Elle Magazine had Suki Waterhouse telephone prank family and friends and she pranked Rob that she had been asked to host “Love is Blind” and that it would be a good idea for him to co-host with her. See Rob’s reaction below – gold as always (Rob starts at 8.12 where the video below should start).

Transcript from Entertainment Weekly:

Waterhouse: “Hi, my angel,”

Pattinson: “Hey, darling. Did you call me brother?”

Waterhouse clarified the pet name mix-up, then launched into the gag. “You know that show Love Is Blind?”

“Yeah,” Pattinson replied.

“I just got offered to be the host for Love Is Blind,” Waterhouse said of the series, which is hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey in the U.S. and Matt and Emma Willis in the U.K. “Isn’t that so cool?”

But Pattinson might not know Love Is Blind after all. “Which one is Love Is Blind again?” he asked.

“We watched it a while ago,” Waterhouse responded. “They’re like, ‘Oh, are you my type? Are you my type?’ It’s quite deep, though. I feel like it’s a sociological experiment that’s actually quite beautiful.” (It remains unclear whether or not Pattinson actually remembers watching Love Is Blind — for all we know, he could have been distracted while exploding his microwave or rehearsing his next ridiculous movie voice.)

Pattinson did not seem enthused by Waterhouse’s announcement. “That’s interesting,” he said tepidly. “What an interesting turn of events.”

Waterhouse reiterated her excitement about the opportunity. “I just feel like it would be quite a good thing to do,” she said. “They were saying we could do it together as well, which I thought could actually be quite good.”

But the thought of being a part of the Love Is Blind equation was too much for the Lighthouse actor. “Darling, have you gone mad?” he asked.

“Don’t you think it would be quite good for us? It would be great for you,” Waterhouse replied, stifling a laugh.

“Are you joking? Is this whole thing a joke?” Pattinson inquired.

“Yeah,” she revealed.

Pattinson breathed a sigh of relief. “I was like, ‘If you think it’s right for you…'” he said.

“I know, you’re so sweet. I love you. Thank you,” Waterhouse responded.

That’s when it dawned on Rob: “Wait, I’m not on some TV show, am I?”

Waterhouse reassured him, “No, you’re not on TV, no,” before adding, “You are gonna be on the internet, though.”

“No! I don’t want to be!” Pattinson exclaimed.

Jamie recently took part in Wired’s “Autocomplete Interview” and had this to say about Rob. From The Insider:

Jamie Dornan admitted he was envious of his former roommate Robert Pattinson‘s early luck in Hollywood at the start of his career. 

“I’ve known Rob forever,” Dornan said while participating in the latest edition of Wired’s “Autocomplete Interview” video series, released Monday. “He’s a really good friend. I love him. I think he’s one of the most interesting, exciting actors around.”

“I probably at one point was quite jealous early on,” the Irish actor continued. “We were all friends back in London and Rob was going places and we weren’t. I think he’s the nicest guy in the world.”

“I think with Rob it’s always been like, he sort of had success earlier, so we were a bit like, ‘Does he really fit in with us?’ Because we were not working and he’s working all the time,” Dornan explained to Entertainment Tonight in March 2022. “He did ‘Twilight’ and was suddenly in a different stratosphere than us.”

Thomas von Steinaecker’s documentary on Werner Herzog “Radical Dreamer” is due for release on 27 October 2022. Wonder what else Rob has to say – the video below starts on Nicole Kidman pondering whether Werner Herzog did in fact eat his shoe – Rob wonders as well. I believe the answer is yes – indeed he did.
