Richard Gere Talks Lunch w/Robert Pattinson: "He Was A Perfectly Nice Guy, But..."

As everyone knows by now, Robert Pattinson met Richard Gere on Friday when he attended a luncheon in honor of the silver-haired actor's awards buzzy film, Arbitrage, at Osteria Mozza in Los Angeles.**** But what you may not know is that Gere didn't exactly realize how major the Twilight star was. "He was a perfectly nice guy, but I had no idea," Gere told me at the Governors Awards. "But I was getting calls from my wife going, 'What are you doing with him? He's so cute, but what are you doing with him?'" *** So Gere's better half, model-actress Carey Lowell, is a Twi-hard?! "My wife is aware of these things," Gere laughed. "I don't know that she's a fan." At least she knows R.Pattz is cute. === Source: eOnline
