Robert Pattinson Creates Bidding War at amfAR Benefit

— May 22, 2009 — World
The people at amfAR must have known Robert Pattinson would be a good man to have working for them, but I bet they were even surprised when a meet-and-greet and a kiss on the cheek sold for $20,000 at last night's “Cinema Against AIDS fund” gala.

Two women were fighting over the chance to meet with ‘Twilight’ actor Robert Pattinson, and both eventually paid the 20k--each!

Robert Pattinson certainly has star power, and amfAR is loving it!
