Every December for the last five years,
New York Magazine publishes an issue called "Reasons to Love New York". The 2009 edition was just released and and as expected, a majority of their 41 reasons pertain to politicians, professional athletes, and the city's culture. However, one of their reasons is right up our alley! According to New York Magazine, the #16 reason to love New York in 2009 was "
Because Robert Pattinson Kept the Gossip Columns Busy". Their chronological list of justifications contains everything from Rob getting attacked by rabid fans to...Rob getting attacked by a taxi. Some of this list is funny and some of it is scary, but it shows just how dominant Rob has become in Pop Culture. Maybe Rob is a reason to love NYC, but, really, did we need another reason to love Rob?
