Hope for Haiti Telethon Friday - Robert Pattinson Appearing?

Several days ago Gossip Cop told you Robert Pattinson had not yet been approached to participate in this Friday’s “Hope for Haiti” telethon, but a source close to the actor said, “I’m sure Robert would participate if asked.”

We passed the message along to organizer George Clooney’s people, and today it appears as though the “Twilight” star is on board.

A source close to Pattinson tells Gossip Cop he’s doing the event, saying, ”We are in the process now of working out his participation from London.”

Gossip Cop is working to confirm other possible additions to the list of participants. We will keep you posted on what we learn.

Haiti obviously needs as much financial support as possible, so the more big names to lend a hand, the better.

Pattinson will be the sole London presenter however he will be joined by performes Bono and Jay.

Other performers/presenters/phone bank helpers include Jennifer Aniston, Jake Gyllenhaal, Brad Pitt, Anna Kendrick, Sandra Bullock, Zac Efron, Bradley Cooper, Renée Zellweger, Chris Pine, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Colin Farrell, Jon Hamm, Gabby Sidibe and Emily Blunt, Christina Aguilera, Taylor Swift, Jay-Z, Bono, Shakira and Alicia Keys. George Clooney will host from Los Angeles while Wyclef Jean will host from New York. Again, the telethon will be this Friday at 8pm and will be televised on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, CNN, BET, CW, HBO, MTV, VH1, CMT, the Style Network the National Geographic Channel and E.
