Robert Pattinson Skirts Kristen Stewart Questions on 'Today'

Newly reunited couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart must be counting the days until their final "Twilight" press onslaught comes to an end. After reportedly overcoming Kristen's caught-on-camera dalliance with director Rupert Sanders -- just in time to begin promoting the final installment of the film franchise that brought them together offscreen -- the on-again lovebirds have been repeatedly challenged to find creative ways of avoiding questions about their rekindled romance.

When Stewart stopped by the "Today" show earlier this week, her response to Savannah Guthrie's Pattinson probing was a vague "keep 'em guessing." Pattinson's turn came Thursday. When the Kristen specter was raised, the actor cringed. "It's like, 'Who is actually asking?' Is it in your contract?" he demanded. "It doesn't have to be [personal]. It only becomes personal if you answer it." Rob was less vague about his "R.Patz" moniker, griping that "It does sound like an antacid tablet." (Celebitchy)
