ET Online and Twilight Lexicon have both talked to representatives at Summit Entertainment about the taxi incident with Robert Pattinson.
From ET Online:
After reports surfaced Thursday saying ‘Twilight’ star Robert Pattinson was struck by a taxicab in New York City amid a fan frenzy, ET has the details …
A rep for Summit Entertainment tells ET that the actor is doing fine after the incident and production continues on his movie.
The 23-year-old star is in the Big Apple filming his upcoming flick, ‘Remember Me.’
From Twilight Lexicon:
“Rob Pattinson is fine, the reports are exaggerated and it was not caused by fans. Production continues,” according to a Summit spokesperson.

THANK GOODNESS! I was sooo worried about him! Glad you’re okay Rob luv you!!!
HAHAA poor Rob
Honestly, everyone needs to chill out. stop chasing after Rob…ssheesh. sucks that he can even walk inches to a car without being mob.
That’s excellent that he’s okay! But still, the fans need to let him breathe so accidents like that won’t actually happen. Still should be a reality check for them
Anyway, figures the media would exaggerate something, lol XD
Glad to hear he’s doing fine.
I just hope this incident encourages us all to chill out, and let the guy breathe. Sure, the fans “didn’t cause” the accident this time, but it’s only a matter of time, if they don’t keep their distance.
Thanks for posting this btw, it’s good to know he’s alright.
everyone got all bent out of shape i mean I think he is well protected by ppl around him who work for him
BUT I am glad it was just a misunderstanding and he is ok =]
ya jaclyn, thank GAWDDD!!! =P no seriously tho i would have spazzed out if anythin had happened to him. *wipes sweat from forehead* sooo glad hes ok. lub u rob!!! <3
Awwww im am so glad that my twilight hunk rob is ok i mean why should tons of girls chase him around its pathitic to act like a stupid girl chasing around an actor But im glad Rob is OK I JUST LOVE him he is HoT
The fans didn’t cause it? Yeah right! You think he would have been in that situation otherwise? Although Rob’s okay, it still doesn’t make what happened right. Poor guy…these kinds of fans are going to make him turn into a resentful hermit!
honestly, i have to blame the production agency to prevent such situations. though he is fine, i think it all could have been prevented and all this drama could have been avoided. i wonder if this was set up, just so that summit can make sure that twilight news keeps fans busy. just a theory.
It’s sad that his own fans are out to get him. It was their faults because he just wanted to run away and that’s what happened when he tried. His fans seem to be way worse than the damn paparazzi. Those screaming teeny girls need to take chill pills. Maybe some damn Ritalin. Yes Robert P is sexy as hell. Yes he’s very convincing as a vampire in love. And yes he is amazing. But you can admire from a distance. Or approach him like a human being instead of a crazed crack out pigeon!
Trust me I know how sexy and irresistable RPatz is but if these obsessed girl mobs don’t leave the poor boy alone he might just say “screw it” and not make Breaking Dawn. I mean we all know he’s only contracted til Eclipse right now, do you really wanna be the one causing us to loose our gorgeous interpretation of edward?
Can we please remember he’s not really IMMORTAL people and he can’t stop moving cars with his bare hands!! Rob is almost as clumsy as Bella – can he please look after himelf or we (TeenageVampGal) wont get to see him when he comes home in Nov/Dec!!!
I completely agree London wants Rob in one piece please!
holy crap i just spazzed out i thought he was dead i was like crying and obviously fans caused it like what taxi wouldnt stop if there is a guy as hot as robert pattinson in the road stupid ppl out there these days
OMG! Thank god he’s alright!
he didnt even get hit!! go to Hisgoldeneyes.com. They have the real thing. They actually know what happened from real people that know rob not from Celeb gossip shows like ET and Twilight Lexon!
Ha! I knew it. Seriously people chill. I’m sure that sort of thing happens all the time to regular people. No need to go “ZOM LEIK G’S! ROB GOTS HITZ BYZ THE TAXI!”
NOW YOU SEE! THIS IS A LESSON TO ALL YOU FANS WHO WERE THERE AND WHO WOULD HAVE GONE CHASING HIM EVERYWHERE! EVEN THOUGH HE WASN’T HURT (which im glad he wasn’t) HE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN SERIOUSLY HURT WHICH WOULD BE BAD. NOW ALL PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE AND WOULD HAVE DONE THAT STOP IT, CHILL OUT, AND GIVE HIM SOME SPACE! I KNOW I WOULD HAVE NOT DONE THAT BECAUSE I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO ANY CELEB ( and also im a taylor fan) BUT STILL!
SO PEOPLES BACK OFF! GIVE THE POOR GUY SOME SPACE!
whoops! sorry i wrote so long!
HA HA HA HA HA rob SRRY
so is there a 5th book coming out, even though midnight sun wasnt published??? i wanna read more!
poor him lol
OMGGGGG thank god hes alright wouldnt want my future husband hurt
JAZZ…..CHILL THE HELL OUT HE WASN’T EVEN HURT HE DIDN’T EVEN ALMOST GET HIT BY A CAR!!!! IT WAS ALL A MISUNDERSTANDING!!!! IF YOU GO TO HISGOLDENEYES.COM YOU WILL SEE THAT SUMMIT HAS MADE A STATEMENT THAT THIS “ACCIDENT” STORY IS FALSE
ok this so bugs me now. the media (i know, this is what they do) freaks us all out saying rob gt hit by a car, and then this comes out and it says he was barely grazed! It bugs me to death that the media just wants to get all the fans in a uproar but I think this threat that he got HURT has gone over the top! I mean, those girls were HORRID to chase him, and should be ashamed of themselves, but the media only added to the story. They just want US to freak out, and then summit releases the truth! Arg, It pisses me off so bad. What, some day are they going to say he DIED and then have to turn out to be a hoax?! I mean really, the headline on the last thing was jarring enough! And I’m not even a Robsessed fan! But I do care for him enough to wish no harm for him!
NOTE TO THE MEDIA: BACK THE H OFF OF MAKING A STORY INTO DRAMA
People need to stop harrassing him while he’s in the City. Just leave him alone.
even if I met Rob (by a lucky chance because I think that’s impossible to see him walking on my city street in italy
) I’d never mob him in this way!! fortunately he feels all right!
ps.I know that my english is terrible!!..but I’m trying to improve it..be sympathetic,please..
But he can stop a van with his hand……
…. oh wait that is Edward! hehehe
Maila, your English was perfect
I wouldn’t mob him like that if by some lucky chance I saw him down the street or something. But I’d definitely be blushing and nervous as hell XD
HOLY CRAP! i saw the words “Rob…taxi…accident…” before anything else and screamed.
Then i read the words “doing…fine…”
And the world spins again.
thank you emilye!
I’d be so nervous too! XD
i’m glad Rob wasn’t hit or hurt but it doesn’t change the fact that people need to give the man some space. Yes he’s “hot” right now (meaning popularity…physically he’s always hot lol) but thats no reason to go balistic. Give the poor guy some breathing room and let him maintain some level of sanity!!!
Lol, its impossible to believe anything the media writes, eh??? Anyways, I’m really glad hes alright. Imagine what that would have done to the world if he had’ve died or something!!! LMAO!
TEAM JAYLOR!!! Woot!
Fans, media, people in general just need to leave him and all the celebs alone. Seriously….i cant stand it. but much love to the twilight cast and crew! excited for New Moon
i love you Rob x
I have come to the conclusion that Rob is the reincarnation of Elvis Presley. He was beautiful, he was mobbed by fans, everyone of all ages loved him. What do you think?
Poor Rob. I think girls it’s too much… he is just an actor and a simply guy… Edward Cullen does not exist on real life, the Saga is amazing and I’m a fun… but.. Stop!!!.. this situation is getting so crazy… crazy girls… go to work, go to school, go home, go to do anything else!!!! parecen unas verdaderas locas….
hey, havnt been on the chat in a while and now that i was going to go on it wouldnt let me. soooo, this is the closest i could get to saying hi. idk who will be reading this, so hey chris/geo/david/etc. (:
baha xD hey corey
People, YOU are the ones that all need to chill! This incident was not caused by a “fan frenzy.” There were 6 fans there total all day- none being teenage girls. I was actually one of the people there when it happened. His bodyguards were trying to get him away from the paparazzi when they walked him into oncoming traffic and into the cab.
Ohmygoodness!!! I was afraid that production would be halted…that would be the worst thing ever!!! Anyway why would a FAN cause the accident? Thats stupid, well unless they want a restraining order. Thank goodness he is ok.
aw hey david(: imy!!!
Good thing he was ok or that would have been some biggggg mess. And that would kill me if he died. :/
Omg…girls ur freaking out!!! Seriously rob is HOT but i mean come on, leave this guy alone…he would be a regular guy if nobody new him so whats the difference when he is just a little famous…:(..ugh..so he got hit, people do ALL the time!!! Omg if i was rob i would have turned aroused and smacked you in the face and told you to leave me alone…but i aint him so…oh well. But give me a break, a stupid giddy girls fallowing him around…how PATHETIC!!! Ugh ”NEW’S FLASH” he doesn’t want to be followed around!!! Duh!!! Lol sorry rob…hope ya do good in the movie’s as always…
OH THANK GAWD HE IS ALL RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!! OME I WOULD ALMOST DIE IF HE EVEN BROKE A BONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM “ROBSESSED” BUT I WOULD NEVER HARRASSE HIM……………………………………. AGAIN THAND GAWD ROB IS ALL RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
These fans need to chill out! They’re making the Twilight fans look like a bunch of unstable psychos! Seriously! They make all of us look bad! Give him some breathing room, please! That must suck for Rob, that he cant even walk on the street without being chased by crazy teens.
I think some of us are being a little too harsh on the fans. What would you do if you saw Robert Pattinson?? Please do tell me.. I don’t think a single person can walk by him and just be like oh look who it is.. and not scream. get real, the fans are just like any other girl that loves robert.
A LESSON 4 THOSE HISTERICLE TYPE FANS.. YES U CAN ADMIRE DA ACTOR,BUT HAVE 2 HAVE LIMITS.. WHO GONNA BE HURT IN THE PROCESS?? THE ACTOR!!
omg you freaking peole dont let the poor guy live his life .but ima big fan thank god hes alright
the fans really need to give some space to breathe i mean the poor guy has a life to.he has dreams certain people to.not just you the fans.and hes cute but not alot alot cute to me at least.
what i meant to say was he has dreams to meet famous people to not just you the fans
