Robert Pattinson & Katy Perry hung out together at a stranger’s wedding: shady?

There have been weird rumors about Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry for months. The tabloids seemed to try to make something “happen” between them, to mixed results. For one, it seems that Kristen Stewart, Robert and Katy were all friends, and Kristen seemed to be particularly close to Katy’s assistant. But then Rob and Katy started hanging out away from Kristen a few different times, and it was around the same time that Rob and Kristen were “falling apart”. So, was Rob screwing around on Kristen with Katy? I don’t know. But I do think this news is shady:

Are Robert Pattinson and Katy Perry researching how to be wedding crashers?

How else do you explain Pattinson, 27, and Perry, 28, scoping out a wedding rehearsal of two strangers on Sunday afternoon at San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, Calif.?

The setting also happens to be a romantic getaway not too far from where the “Teenage Dream” singer was raised.

“Katy and Rob were just sitting next to each other watching the wedding rehearsal in the main courtyard area,” rehearsal guest Stephanie Sands tells PEOPLE. “They were dressed very casually. She was wearing a hoodie and big sunglasses. There was no PDA between them and no body language that showed they were dating. They just sat together and watched.”

Sands says she has “no idea” why the pair – longtime friends and both now notably single – were at the luxurious location or why they were checking out the rehearsal, insisting, “They were not affiliated with the wedding party and were not seen mingling with guests.”

This sighting comes less than a week after the former Twilight star appeared to be in a “really good mood” partying in Hollywood shortly after moving his belongings out of on-again-off-again girlfriend Kristen Stewart’s home.

Is Rob burying his sorrows in Katy’s magnificent rack? Or is Katy just Team Sparkles and she’s spending innocent time with her friend? I don’t know. If I had to place money on a theory, I’d say that Katy and Rob have probably been fooling around for a month or two and Katy was one of the reasons why Rob felt like calling it off with Kristen with so much finality.

But don’t think that Kristen is completely innocent either – a picture is starting to form about the weeks leading up the Robsten split, and many sources have claimed that Kristen was in some sort of contact with Rupert “Mini Cooper” Sanders. One theory is that Rob found recent text messages from Rupert on Kristen’s phone and that’s why they had the big fight on his birthday. Hollywood Life has a source who claims that Liberty Ross is “shocked” by the idea that Rupert and Kristen could maybe still be in contact too. Of course, Hollywood Life’s sources also say that Rob dumped Kristen because he felt like an adult taking care of a “a child”.

By the way, check out these photos of Kristen flipping the bird to paparazzi last week. Because she’s super-classy.

    meh, it was probably just 2 friends hanging out-he doesn’t seem like he’s her type.

  2. donna says:

    It’s not “months”. They’ve been trying to hook Rob and Katy up for YEARS. Since 2009 at least. I don’t think anything was going on with them before the break up and I don’t think anything was going on with Rupert and Kristen. I’m not sure why people find it so hard to believe that a couple can break up less than a year after a public infidelity simply because they weren’t able to get past it. It’s not that complicated.

    • Dubois says:

      This

    • LB says:

      Agreed. I think they just didn’t work. After what happened, they tried (he possibly felt pressured to as well). They spent that time apart while he was in Australia, he came back, they tried some more. Didn’t work. That’s all.

      I wish it were more dramatic but it doesn’t seem like it is.

  3. FreeSpiritedGirl says:

    It either could be two friends just hanging out or a false news. I want to see the photos of the two together sitting at the said wedding rehearsal. Somebody might have spread this false news just to gain two minutes of fame or to get instant followers on twitter/instagram.
    Show us the pics to prove it. 🙂

    • Another Ann says:

      I vote for the troll/fameseeker theory. People Magazine posted that story and then removed it from their site pretty quickly, probably once they learned the source was shady. It apparently came from a girl who tweeted that she saw them. No picture, no receipts, noone else at the site saw them. I also saw that Katy was supposedly in the recording studio this weekend, so doubtful she’d be lurking around Santa Barbara.

      • FreeSpiritedGirl says:

        Exactly! I saw that girl’s tweet on twitter yesterday, now it’s been deleted. The pic she posted had just two girls posing, no Rob or Katy in the view. I guess those girls were just trolling like that guy who three weeks ago tweeted ‘omg! Rob and Kristen were just inside my shop!’, got 100s of retweets. These trollers.

      • Jay says:

        @AnotherAnn She wasn’t the only person that saw them there. There was another person who saw them at the venue too but that person gave more details and said there were at least a couple of other people with them. Considering there were paps taking aerial shots of his home this weekend I’m sure he thought getting out of town was his best option

      • Another Ann says:

        Hi Jay,
        All these people saw them there and noone snapped a picture? People watched them long enough to get clothing descriptions and descriptions of their interaction, but couldn’t snap a picture? Girly had a cellphone on her since her Tweet included a picture of her and her friend – but nothing of Rob & Katy.

        It’s a pretty shaky story without picture backup.

  4. Renne says:

    Friends with benefits maybe? I don’t buy “just friends” narrative ’cause it’s unbelievable that he’s never touched those fabulous boobs.

    • gg says:

      He’s probably ascaired of those fabulous boobs. Katie would eat him alive, and not in a good way.

  5. Adeli says:

    Oh FFS, can people at least try to get the facts straight? Rob and Katy have been friends for years through Shannon Woodward. Way, way before he met Kristen. I seriously doubt Rob has been fooling around with Katy. Geez, not everybody in Hollywood has questionable morals. Men and women can be platonic friends? What a novel concept!

  6. G says:

    Totally think this will play out like Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes where no one gets them quite like they did when he was with Rachel McAdams and the Twihards/McGoslings never chill.

  7. Apples says:

    (That place also has a highly rated restaurant.)
    I was starting to believe Rob/Katy rumors last year, wondering if she could be his undercover lover during this PR romance with Kristen. There were reports of a flirty dinner, etc. I was starting to think there was some truth. Turns out, story proven wrong as Rob was actually on a plane at the time- bad luck for the gossip mag. Now I don’t believe anything. I think they are just friends, but, maybe Katy doesn’t mind a little PR and Rob wants to be tied to anyone except Kristen.

  8. Anname says:

    People pulled this article down in a few hours because it’s probably completely false. Who really knows, but I doubt this actually happened. Only 1 person happened to spot the both of them there?

    I just don’t see Rob and Katy together either, she is such an attention-seeker, and he is so not.

    • Tessa says:

      There were two separate spottings, but both claimed they weren’t alone and with a group of people. This makes it seem like they were alone. They have hung out in group settings for years, as friends… If they’re more than friends all of a sudden after being just friends for so long, this is probably not the sighting to prove it. Sitting on a bench watching a wedding rehearsal. Scandalous.

      • Anname says:

        The 2 people who “spotted” them know each other, don’t they? Not 2 separate sightings.

        I guess it doesn’t really matter, even if by some chance this is actually true, I would be very surprised if they are actually more than friends.

      • jess says:

        The two girls who spotted them were friends. Kristen fans are the ones who forwarded the tweet to people, who ended up contacting the girl who tweeted it. She originally tweeted that she saw katy with her mom and Rob was there too with a couple of others. The whole thing sounds suspicious. They only hook them up because she is his only famous female friend. Katy was seen with an agent she is rumored to be dating while she was in ny.

    • fran says:

      Because Stewart isn’t an attention seeker?/sarcasm

      • Anname says:

        Kristen has her own issues, but she isn’t the same type of attention seeker as Katy Perry.

      • The Original G says:

        Most, if not all of Katy’s attention seeking is in the context of promoting her albums and red carpet appearances, which is her job.

      • Tessa says:

        Right? She’s a pop-star. She has to be in the public eye, and be as visible as her peers. She’s not worse than Kesha, GaGa, Rhianna, Swifty, etc. They all have to make themselves visible and be present in the media. Music is a different kind of business. The have to constantly hustle. Pop stars have a very small window, and then they get replaced. I give Katy credit for lasting as long as she has and having as much success as she has. I thought for sure she was a one hit wonder.She’s far exceeded my expectations.

    • Jay says:

      More than 1 person saw them but she said there were other people with them

    • another nina says:

      @ Anname

      The story is still on the People’s website, marked as a Top Story.

    • StaCat1 says:

      The article is still on People. I just saw it. It’s their top story right now.
      I don’t think anything is going on. Does it look shady – yeah, kind of.

      I DO think it’s interesting about the US Weekly story on Perry and Mayer “flirting” this weekend. No pics of that either.

      Don’t Perry and Stewart share PR offices? Just interesting timing I thought.

  9. Rabia says:

    Wait, aside from this wedding rehearsal sighting, when have Rob and Katy been spotted alone together?

  10. Anna says:

    Bad move, Sparkles.

  11. Annie says:

    As long as he hooks up with anyone! As long as he doesn’t go back to Kristen. He needs to have fun and just be away from her for good. Katy has been a friend for years. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible that they’d hook up. Who knows. As long as they keep it on the low. No drama. No papz. Rob needs fun right now.

    And Kristen flipping the bird while dressed like Urkel with her equally moronicly dressed friends? Please. They look like the cast of a Nickelodeon 90’s show. What MAN wants to be with that? She should date Bieber. Same assholish attitudes and dumbass personal style. Same emotional maturity. Same knack for ruining good things because they’re brats.

    • TG says:

      +1 Annie. Kristen only flops paps that she hasn’t called

      • Annie says:

        Exactly. Like, today that she’s been dumped she’s in no mood for pictures, but by all means when I need to tell the world that he took me back after cheating, please take pictures of my backyard so you can see him in his underwear kissing me and bringing me coffee and towels, agency that I made a deal with.

        It’s just amazing how she had so many people fooled for awhile, including him.

  12. gogoGorilla says:

    I hope it’s true. Just because the never-ending Robsten/Rupert/minicoopering story really needs to die.

    • pepper says:

      IA. Rob should be having fun now. Enough of that emo fakeass bitch. Katy seems sweet and bubbly. Go get some Rob!

  13. Katie says:

    I believe the wedding rehearsal sighting but they have been friends for years. They are never gonna happen IMO.

  14. Tig says:

    Don’t really buy this, but Katy is a pretty girl with a gorgeous figure. Maybe he’s enjoying the view-?- LOL! Seriously, maybe she is helping him over the break-up. Friends do that for friends.

  15. Tulip says:

    I kind of like Stewart more after seeing those photos of her flipping off the paparazzi. She’s actually showing off a different emotion than sulking. Besides, who wouldn’t want to flip them off just once;)

    Meh to Katy and Robert.

    • TG says:

      Isn’t flipping off the paps a form if sulking? Especially on the lengthy manner she was behaving. Notice she doesn’t flip off the Popsugar paps that she calls. Hard to have respect for
      Seine who calls the paps and uses the paps to stage photos then gets pissy when it is supposedly inconvenient. What a brat. @Annie was right Justin the baby Beiber is perfect for this woman child.

      • The Original G says:

        Didn’t she flip off at the Snow White and the Huntsman premiere? Now, THAT’s really attractive to potential producers, investors and colleagues.

      • Tessa says:

        Yes, but worse she flipped off the hired photographers during a photocall for OTR in Cannes. Cannes! She has no class. She’s awful.

    • P.J. says:

      I admire Kristen for having the courage to give the finger to the paps! Even though she’s obviously devastated at the breakup, she’s got enough spirit to tell the paps off. She’s a fighter.

      • Janet says:

        She’s rude, low-class and stupid. She isn’t accomplishing anything by flipping off the paparazzi except giving them their money shots.

      • hayden says:

        Right on, Janet. Rude, low-class and stupid sums her up perfectly. Now if she’ll just fade away, and take her smelly crew with her.

      • Nina W says:

        What courage does it take to make a rude gesture? No one is going to break her finger or give her the spanking she so richly deserves but it is hardly an act of courage to flip off the paps.

  16. Nola says:

    Where there’s smoke there’s fire. I usually discard the KP and R stories but it never seems to die. And since this story usually pops up in reliable tabs (people, us weekly) I think it’s safe to that something’s up between the two.

    • marcy says:

      Oh please, you’ve been in comments here hating on Rob since the break up was announced. The disappointed stan who now overcompensates with irrational hate rolls off you.

      It keeps coming up because Katy’s his most famous friend and they’ve hung out for years. The People story doesn’t even allege anything happened. They make a point to say they weren’t acting like a couple at all.

  17. The Original G says:

    They’re both single, so what’s the big deal?

    I actually believe just about anything besides Robsten ever getting back together.

  18. Kt says:

    People may have removed the story because Katy and Kristen share a publicist. . . Seems shady to me!

  19. boredbrit says:

    Don’t see the problem with her sticking her finger up.

    • Nina W says:

      It’s not a good look for her in terms of PR but other than that it seems pointless and self-indulgent as well as immature.

  20. lori says:

    They’d be great together. If Rob can get over John Mayer P!ssing on her t!ts then I’m sure she can overlook all the armpit licking that went on with Robsten.

  21. serena says:

    Be it Katy or whoever, I think it’s time for Rob to have some fun and date around. After being stuck for years with a lip-biting trampire -that’s the less offensive word that came to my mind lol- I think that’s the minimum.
    I don’t know if Kristen is at a rebellious stage or what, but keeping contact with tha man -married with children- you cheated your boyfriend with is awful. She just doesn’t learn.
    Flip the bird whenever you want, Kristen, I think you’re gonna see the results very soon.

  22. Dedrie says:

    Emooooooooooah.. I needs my female Emo fix!

  23. Saddie says:

    Well it’s not KP or Emma they have both had adequate opps to get with RP.
    Couldn’t this just be more work and less relish split. Every time RP leaves for his next flim gig they break-up – I see a pattern here. They hold the worlds record for the most ON or OFF couple in history, simply because it creates media spin. At some point either will marry and have kids – I bet Rob will marry first. He’s ready to settle down and have a family. God forbid they are a normal couple – how boring a constant long-term relationship is. I do think that KS is a very conventional person when it comes to trusting people let alone a partner. She seems to stay away from men with agendas except RS who’s mariage was over before SNATH started filming. The mini coppering events were planned and staged. How boring it would be if KS was banging a separated guy and not a married guy.

    • marcy says:

      People and Us Weekly have actually NEVER said they’ve broken up before this. Not even right after she cheated. This is the only time their reps have gone so far as the People announcement, so I’d say it’s very real, at least for the moment.

    • Annie says:

      Of course. A marriage broke up just to sell movie tickets of an already successful franchise. A successful girl made a fool of herself and ruined her reputation just to sell movie tickets of said franchise, and now nobody wants to hire her for bad PR and she’s been unemployed for almost two years… Because that’s how she planned it. For Twilight. Twilight is the Illuminati.

  24. Ruel says:

    I am an Ex-Robsten fan and I can somewhat see the poetic justice in rob/katy lurv connection but still…this Brit has some bad taste in women and I guess what they say is true….”you really can’t trust any of these Hollywood Skanks.” Before you all come at me with Kate is Better than Kristen….not really. It’s also, disgusting to see ppl, fall in and out of relationship so fast. I mean take some time off…travel…read some books…do other things before climbing back into a bed of roses and Clamydia with any of these Katy’s / Paris Hiltons / or Lindsys….Gross!

    • Annie says:

      Yeah, people fall in and out of love too quickly in the entertainment business. They never have time for themselves. It’s one relationship after the another. I don’t find that kind of love sincere. It’s just a way to say you’re afraid of being alone and you don’t know who you are if you’re not in a relationship.

      • TG says:

        And of they haven’t immediately jumped into a relationship then they have surrounded themselves with friends 24/7. Weird and unhealthy. And am I the only person who thinks Katy Perry is gross? I mean she has a good figure but people who always look like they are in costume like Christina shoulders and anyone who data John Meyer has cooties in my book.

    • Deidra says:

      What about some wild rebound sex with a woman with fantastic boobies? It’s not like they’ve decided to get married and to settle down as soon as he called it quits with Kristen. The guy has been stuck with a moody tomboy for five years, let him have his fun now. Nothing dramatic.

    • Emily says:

      Comparing Katy Perry with Paris Hilton or Lindsay Lohan is ludicrous. I don’t even like Katy Perry, but the woman is a pop star with a real career. Are we now calling every single pretty young woman who’s famous for any reason a Paris Hilton? Please.

  25. Deidra says:

    Any woman is a step up after Kristen Stewart. Go, Rob! Have fun!

    • tracy says:

      Sorry I like Katy, but she is not a step up from Kristen. Russell Brand, John Mayer, Travie McCoy etc. Katy is a media hog. She puts all her business in the street and on full display. She can’t stop posting her business on line. She has public feuds. Rob is going to love this.

      • Deidra says:

        Krisbians are in full gear! Katy is clean, smiley and talented. She doesn’t bang married men on parking lots while being in a relationship. She IS a step up.

  26. Asdfg says:

    Hmm, aren’t Kristen and Katy friends? I remember seeing pics of them together at the Met Ball. Katy was holding Kristen’s hand too. If Kristen and Rob were really a couple then yeah, Katy hooking up with Rob would be shady in my opinion. Maybe they were never a couple?

  27. Lizzy1013 says:

    Doesn’t rob smoke cigarettes? Isn’t it possible that they were getting a bite to eat at the restaurant and went outside to smoke where there happened to be a wedding rehearsal? I doubt they were watching the wedding rehearsal in a creepy way. Also, I doubt they hook up. Katy is way too girly/ high maintenance for rob.

  28. Emily says:

    Rob’s camp is rich, if it’s them talking about Kristen being a “child”. Maybe if you don’t want to feel you have to take care of someone, don’t get in a serious relationship with them when they’re 19 and you’re 23.

  29. Another Ann says:

    Ah. Now US Weekly has posted that Katy may be back together with John Mayer (ick), who was at the Memorial Day party she threw at her house yesterday. Looks more and more like People got fooled by their “source”, and subsequently took the post down.

    So – did the source make the whole thing up? See a NotRob and NotKaty? Or maybe Rob with a NotKaty? The plot thickens…

    • Kim1 says:

      Gossipcop confirms Mayer was a guest at Katys party

    • TG says:

      Lainey is speculating that People took the article down to hide the truth that Rob and Katy were there and that she called John Mayer over to end any talk of a possible hookup with Rob. Who knows this is all getting weird.

      • The Original G says:

        Maybe People took the story down because it’s just plain boring.

      • tracy says:

        The story was reposted with the names of the people who say Rob and Katy. I still think it was Rob people who posted the lie about Rupert texting Kristen. SURE that happened. Rob’s people trying to deflect.

      • tracy says:

        Hundreds of actors flip off the paps. Yet Kristen is the only one getting called out. Look at J. Lawrence flipping the bird at the Oscars. Rob is a man/child. Do a search on youtube of Rob and Nikki Reed. She was struggling and struggling trying to load some boxes in her car. While Rob the big man/child stood trying to hide his faces. Minutes went by, finally the pap offered Nikki his help. All the while laughing at Rob, who did not even try to help. Kristen can do much better that Rob. I am sure he is nice, but he is not much of a man. Shameful video of Rob.

  30. ludmila says:

    I think Katy and Rob play a long time, during the filming of Snow
    Rob was everywhere with Katy, he had only been to London once. This relationship is so weird, I saw no effort or eye candy unless you were on carpets or interviews, the rest of the story I think it was fantasy fans and the two rolaram.Isso makes him the bad guy, no. It just is not perfect, nobody is.

  31. Get a clue says:

    Not believing it for a second. I’m sure the tabs would love to continue with their rob is a jerk scenarios, but I think he actually is a nice guy. They don’t have much on him so they make stuff up.

  32. oivey says:

    I don’t care who/what/where as long as it sends the Twiweirdo’s into a tizzy because that’s always funny.

  33. tracy says:

    Kristen is well rid of Rob. He is so unmanly. I can’s see Kristen trying to get even. She is out with her friends enjoying herself. If Rob is with Katy, for once he needs to be a man and say it. Kristen you are free of this manchild.

    • Nina W says:

      Yep she’s just a tower of maturity that needs to be separated from the “man child”. As long as you over look her infantile behavior, sulking and mouthing off in interviews, flipping the bird all over town and mini-coopering her relationship.

    • oivey says:

      OMG. Right? Cuz she’s like totes mature n sh*t. OMFG. Liek she’s supes grown up and like flawless.

  34. hayden says:

    “Kristen can do much better that Rob…” She’ll certainly try maaaaany times. There are a lot of scumbag directors like douchebag Sanders, sleazy producers, desperate actors, stage hands, road crew, hipster clingers, etc. out there for her to test your theory.
