Robert Pattinson is on board.

I just got word that the Twilight star has signed on for Friday’s Hope for Haiti telethon. As of right now, it looks like Rob will be the sole presenter in London, with performances by Jay-Z and Bono.

Stateside performers—some announced and others not—will include: Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Shakira and Bruce Springsteen, who are among those performing live during the two-hour benefit, which will air on all the major television networks (including our very own E!).

Other mega-celebs who will present and/or help in the phone banks are Jennifer Aniston, Jake Gyllenhaal, Brad Pitt, Anna Kendrick, Zac Efron, Bradley Cooper, Renée Zellweger, Chris Pine, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Colin Farrell, Gabby Sidibe and Emily Blunt, among many others.

No word yet on Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, but as I was the first to tell you, Hollywood’s hottest vampire movie trio is a very wanted group for the telethon because of the impact they would have with young people.

Also on organizers’ wish list are—no surprise—Oprah Winfrey and Angelina Jolie.

George Clooney is set to host from Los Angeles, with Wyclef John in New York City and CNN newsman Anderson Cooper in Haiti.

Our source says celeb participation and other plans keep changing. “With everything moving so quickly,” the source said, “changes are happening every minute.”

And according to Gossip Cop:

“Many of you asked whether Kristen Stewart will be part of the “Hope for Haiti” event. Gossip Cop has learned that Stewart would love to be involved, but will be occupied at the Sundance Film Festival and unable to participate.

As always, we’ll keep you posted with developments…”

Peaches Geldof talks New Moon’s Robert Pattinson: ‘He’s really intelligent’

“Socialite Peaches Geldof says she has met The Twilight Saga: New Moon star several times, and has has many conversations with him. She says he is really intelligent. According to nowmagazine.co.uk, Geldof says: “I’m really into R-Patz. I’ve met him on numerous occasions.” She continued: “I was chatting to him about movies. He’s really intelligent and he has surreal taste in movie directors. People don’t see that side of him because the Twilight thing has become so big.”

In other Pattinson news, the New Moon star was named as the Sugarscape Man of the Year 2009. They say of Pattinson: ”

“When the Twilight frenzy swept us all off our feets, we couldn’t help but stare endlessly at photos of Rob for days on end, or watch any video footage we could get hold of to hear his voice…Okay, so we may be a tad obsessed, but it’s a healthy obsession – right?!””
