14 DAY TRIAL // If the “manllow” (half man, half pillow) with Edward Cullen is not enough for your inner Twi-hard-ness, there’s one more thing you could buy to satisfy that: the bed in which Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart first kissed.
When the two actors first auditioned for the parts that made them international superstars, those of Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, they did so in the home of Catherine Hardwicke, the director of “Twilight.”
In order to see if they had the right chemistry, Hardwicke famously made them kiss and make out on her own bed and, obviously, they passed the test.
The director kept the bed and she’s now considering selling it for charity, Hollywood Life reports.
“Twilight director Catherine Harwicke was recognized at the June 10 Step Up Women’s Network Inspiration Awards, and she announced an incredible opportunity for fans to own a VERY intimate part of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart’s life!” the e-zine gushes.
“Catherine said she still has the bed Rob and K-Stew first kissed on when they were rehearsing scenes at her house for the iconic first film in the series,” the publication says.
“And Catherine said she might put the bed up for auction to help Step Up Women’s Network if there was enough demand from fans,” Hollywood Life adds.
The money would go to charity, “offering children in high-crime areas the chance to graduate high school and go off to college,” the celebrity e-zine says.
In other words, if Hardwicke gets enough demands from fans for the bed, she will sell it to the highest bidder and offer the money to charity, which, of course, is a very admirable thing to do.
Knowing just how passionate Twi-hards are about everything related to the Twilight universe, chances are some of them will not want to pass by the chance of owning the bed in which the two characters first took on their roles – so expect it to sell for the big bucks.
