Robert Pattison Died Rumors: Kristen Stewart Cheating Scandal Sparks Twitter Rumors

Culture

As the messy breakup of the Twilight Saga film series actors – and real life former couple – Robert Robert Pattison and Kristen Stewart unravels, rumors have surfaced online that Pattison might have died either in a car accident or somewhere in New Zealand -- while nursing the heart broken by Stewart when she cheated with Snow White director Rupert Sanders.

However, it recently has been known that the allegations are part of yet another online death hoax initiated by Twitter users who – by now – are accustomed to “kill” celebrities and politicians by spreading the hashtag #RIP next to the celebrity du jour's name – as they did in the past with Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and Eddie Murphy, among others.

And though Pattison might be alive, that doesn’t mean that the actor of upcoming Breaking Dawn Part 2 is well. Pattison, who has just been confirmed to participate in Animal Kingdom director’s David Michod, futuristic western The Roverreportedly wants to have a “man to man” conversation with Sanders to “find out exactly what happened between him and Stewart." Not a good idea, if you ask me.
