Reese Witherspoon’s donkeys are annoying her neighbours with their loud hee-haws

The ‘Water for Elephants’ star has two donkeys, Honky and Tonky, on her ranch in Ojai, California, but the pair of animals are so noisy a group of local residents have sent her a letter asking her to do something about the unsociable asses.

One infuriated neighbour told Us Weekly magazine: “It’s so bad that a few residents have sent her a letter.”

While another source added: “They’re driving us crazy!”

However, the disgruntled residents want Reese – who lives on the ranch with her husband Jim Toth and her son Deacon, seven, and daughter Ava, 11, her children with ex-spouse Ryan Phillippe – to know they have no problem with her personally, just her high decibel donkeys.

Another neighbour insisted: “She’s beloved here. I’m not even sure she knows what’s going on.”

The 35-year-old actress keeps a variety of animals on the ranch – which served as her wedding venue when she and Hollywood agent Jim tied the knot in March – including pigs Booker T. Washington and Lavender Valentine, goats George and Martha Washington, the donkeys, chickens, a horse and three dogs.

She previously said: “I have animal friends, I have donkeys, I have goats, I have pigs … The goats are kind of worthless. They’re pretty nasty and don’t do anything. But I have chickens and they provide eggs.”

Reese Witherspoon’s new husband Jim Toth thinks her life is “bizarre”

The ‘Water for Elephants’ actress – who married the Hollywood agent in a small ceremony in March – thinks Jim is shocked at suddenly being the centre of attention having always been behind the camera and working with talent out of the public glare previously.

She said: “He thinks it’s totally bizarre. I think you have an instinct when you’re with the person you want to build a life with. You learn more as you get older about what you need in a partner.”

However the blonde beauty – who has children Ava, 11 and Deacon, eight, from her previous marriage to actor Ryan Phillippe – thinks it is helpful to be in a relationship with someone who understands the pressures of fame.

Asked if it is easier to be with someone who is not an actor, she responds: “I wouldn’t say it’s easier; every relationship has its own dynamic. But it helps that he understands what I do for a living.”

Despite her high-pressure job in the public eye, Reese believes being a parent is the toughest job she has.

She told You magazine: “Being a parent is the hardest thing on earth. It breaks your heart when your children are unhappy and you feel incredible joy when they are happy.”

Reese Witherspoon “didn’t have to think” before accepting Jim Toth’s marriage proposal

The ‘Water for Elephants’ actress – who married the Hollywood agent last month – was absolutely certain she wants to spend the rest of her life with Jim and didn’t hesitate in agreeing to get engaged.

She said: “I knew he was The One all right. A clue was when he asked me to marry him and I said yes right away. Didn’t have to think about it. It just feels like the right thing at the right time in my life.”

Reese – who has two children Ava, 11, and seven-year-old Deacon from her previous marriage with actor Ryan Phillippe – liked Jim from when she first met him but says the pair can’t agree on who pursued who at the beginning of their relationship.

She said: “I always thought he was a really nice guy. And then he asked me out on a date and I still thought he was a really nice guy. Of course, it’s always debatable who courted who isn’t it? He tells me, ‘You courted me.’ And I’m like, ‘What are you talking about, you courted me!’ ”

However, their ability to joke with each other is what Reese loves about her new husband. She said: “We have the best time together. We literally laugh all the time and it’s great. We just have a very nice, easy relationship. You know how you get that sort of great feeling when it’s all working out?”

Reese Witherspoon’s love scenes with Robert Pattinson left her “disappointed”

The ‘Water for Elephants’ actress was let down by her hunky co-star when they filmed their characters’ intimate scenes because he had a terrible cold.

She told website intouchweekly.com: “Rob possibly had the most hideous horrible cold of any co-star I’ve ever had to do a love scene with ever in my entire life.

“I’m going to say it’s a little bit of a downer. I was a little disappointed. It wasn’t sexy.

“He was literally snorting and snotting through every second of it – and it was not appealing. I’m talking green, infectious, disgusting – I’m not kidding!”

Robert, 24, is now over his cold and on the set of the final film in ‘The Twilight Saga’, ‘Breaking Dawn’ – reprising his best-known role as vampire Edward Cullen – although he preferred his previous part as veterinary student Jacob Jankowski, because it meant he didn’t have to wear so much make up.

He said: “It’s nice to be able to actually touch your face without thinking you’re going to get a huge smudge mark over it. Not having a big kabuki mask on and contacts lenses for ‘Water for Elephants’ was a totally different experience.”

Reese Witherspoon has married Jim Toth

The couple tied the knot last night (26.03.11) at the actress’s six-acre ranch home in Ojai, California during a romantic ‘Southern Style’ wedding.

Celebrity friends including Renee Zellweger, Alyssa Milano and Tobey Maguire were among the 140 guests who watched the blonde beauty wed the Hollywood agent wearing a custom-designed Monique Lhuillier dress, according to UsMagazine.com

Reese’s children from her first marriage to actor Ryan Phillippe, Ava, 11, and seven-year-old Deacon took part in the ceremony and the ‘Walk the Line’ star’s best friend Heather Rosenfield was matron of honour.

The 35-year-old star walked down the aisle to traditional wedding song ‘Here Comes the Bride’ but a southern feel was added with ‘Tennessee Waltz’ playing during the procession.

The happy couple were married by Reverend Jimmy Bartz in a 20-minute ceremony and exchanged wedding rings designed by jeweller William Goldberg.

A source close to the pair – who announced their engagement in December – told the magazine that they are a perfect match and said Reese feels secure with her new husband.

They said: “He’s a very confident guy who takes care of her.

“[Reese] really wants to be married and have that security with someone. They feel like they’ve hit the jackpot in this relationship!”

Reese Witherspoon is backing a campaign to halt violence against women

The 34-year-old actress – who has two children, 11-year-old daughter Ava and seven-year-old son Deacon, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe – is backing cosmetic firm Avon’s new empowerment charm bracelet, which is being sold for £5 in the UK to raise funds for domestic violence charities Refuge, Women’s Aid and Unifem and marks the centenary of International Women’s Day today (08.03.11).

Reese, who is an Avon Global Ambassador and Honorary Chair of the Avon Foundation for Women, said: “Although the problem may seem insurmountable, there are ways for women and men everywhere to help bring an end to violence against women across the globe.

“The Avon Empowerment Bracelet is a simple, but powerful, way to raise funds to reduce violence against women. As a woman and as a mother, I urge you to join me on this very special anniversary of International Women’s Day to end this epidemic by wearing and giving the bracelet to friends and family.”

To date, Avon’s empowerment jewellery has helped raise over £11 million for domestic violence charities worldwide, including £400,000 to UK organisations.

Reese Witherspoon keeps a make-up bag wherever she goes

The ‘Water for Elephants’ actress – who is engaged to Hollywood agent Jim Toth – hates to be caught without her favourite cosmetics, though she insists she tries to limit what she takes with her.

She said: “I have a bunch of different make-up bags – one in my car, one in my handbag and one at home.

“I try to keep them small, but I have about five lipglosses, mascara, cover-up, lipstick and blush.”

One of the things the actress relies on keeping in her make-up bag is a white eyeliner pencil, as she believes it keeps her looking refreshed.

Asked for her best beauty tip, she said: “Put a little white eyeliner in the centre of your inner eye when you’re tired. It makes your eyes look awake!”

Reese – who has children Ava, 11, and Deacon, seven, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe – also admits that she takes more care of her appearance now she is getting older.

The 34-year-old beauty told Britain’s Glamour magazine: “I’ve always used moisturiser and SPF, but as you get older you really have to take care of your skin – you must take off your make-up and put on your moisturiser.”

Reese Witherspoon thinks having children stopped her from being self-obsessed.

The 34-year-old actress – who has two children, 11-year-old daughter Ava and seven-year-old son Deacon, with her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe – believes being a young mother changed her perspective and made her less focused on her career.

She said: “My children are the best part of my day. I used to be very competitive and aggressive but when I had my first child at 22, it put my whole life in perspective and helped me get out of my very narrow-minded focus on my career. Having kids stops the endless cycle of self-obsession.”

The ‘Water for Elephants’ actress recently got engaged to Hollywood agent Jim Toth – who she met just months after ending her two-year relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal in late 2009 and Reese feels “lucky” to have got another chance at love.

She told Closer magazine: “I am lucky I’ve had a few shots getting second chances. That’s nice. I thought I knew everything about love and relationships in my 20s – the ignorance of youth is bliss.

“As you get older, you start to realise that you don’t really know anything and life is a great travelling journey. Life is unexpected – you just never know what’s going to happen. I would love to have more kids.”

The Oscar-winning actress also admitted she would rather people praised her sense of humour rather than her looks.

She said: “I always say funny doesn’t sag, which seems like a good rule of thumb. People should be more interested in your personality than how you look in a bikini. As an actress, you think about longevity, probably more than men. You hope to have a long lasting career.”

Reese Witherspoon admits she has “a lot of flaws”

The ‘Water For Elephants’ actress has parts of herself that she doesn’t like, and despite her beauty and fame, insists she isn’t perfect.

When asked if she considers herself to have flaws, she replied: “How long do you have? It’s a long list. Shall I go alphabetically? A, annoying. B, belligerent… Yeah, I have a lot of flaws. There are a parts of myself I could do without.”

One of the things the 34-year-old beauty admits is a flaw is her inability to stop overthinking things, though she has learned to calm herself through exercise.

She explained to Total Film magazine: “I ruminate a lot. I’m always in my head, thinking and thinking. Sometimes that can be counterproductive, so when I do put on my running shoes and go run it helps.”

Despite admitting her constant thinking can be frustrating, the ‘How Do You Know’ actress it can be advantageous for helping her come up with ideas for her production company, Type A.

She added: “I’m kind of a daydreamer. I’ll come up with an idea and then I talk to my producing partners and we try and find the right writers or directors who are interested in doing the material.”

Reese Witherspoon credits an elephant with being one of the best co-stars she’s had

The ‘Water For Elephants’ actress loved working alongside the animal because it was both dangerous and challenging.

She said: “It was one of the best experiences of my career. I worked with her for three months just training. I had to get into shape – I had no harness, no safety equipment, nothing.

“It was literally just me and the elephant and I had to climb onto her. She’s 10 feet tall and over 900lbs, and it was this exercise in trust. It’s a really beautiful thing where you learn to communicate with a creature non-verbally. She’s the big star of the movie.”

The film stars Reese as a circus performer whose horse dies, putting her act in jeopardy, until her husband – the circus ringmaster – buys her an elephant.

Reese, 34, added the elephant helps bring her character closer to Robert Pattinson’s in the film, when they meet because of the creature.

She added: “Robert Pattinson’s character comes in and he’s a vet and we end up being very interested in each other. It’s very romantic and beautiful.”

Reese Witherspoon thinks Robert Pattinson is “extraordinarily attractive”

The 34-year-old actress – who was previously married to Ryan Phillippe and dated Jake Gyllenhaal - worked alongside the British hunk on the set of new movie ‘Water for Elephants’ and believes the hype around him is justified as he is very good looking.

She said: “The only thing I can compare it to is when Leonardo DiCaprio was in ‘Titanic’. It was that kind of fervour about a person. The women lining up outside the set – it was unbelievable – till 5 o’clock in the morning waiting to just glimpse him.

“He’s extraordinarily attractive, I’m not gonna lie! Every day there would be like, 50 people staked out. There would be people camped out in the hallways of our hotel. All day, all night long, it didn’t matter. People were there to try to catch a glimpse.”

However, the blonde beauty believes the best thing about the 24-year-old star – who is believed to be dating his ‘Twilight’ co-star Kristen Stewart – is he is a hard worker who is not “a bad boy”.

She told MTV News: “Robert is such a great guy from a great family. That’s the thing that’s so funny. He’s not really this bad boy, he’s just a great guy and really worked hard on ‘Water for Elephants’. We really worked long hours, long days. He looks totally different in the movie.”

Reese Witherspoon has bought Steven Segal’s former house for $7 million

The Oscar-winning actress is moving out of the marital home she shared with her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe - who she split from in 2007 and with whom she has two children, daughter Ava, 11, and seven-year-old son Deacon – and is heading to the lavish Los Angeles property which belonged to the action star.

The property is located in a gated community in the Brentwood area of the city and boasts seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and a swimming pool.

The 6,125 sq ft home is located on acres of plush land and also comes complete with its own Buddhist temple – which ‘Under Siege’ actor Segal, a committed Buddhist, used for meditation.

Reese’s new neighbours include a host of famous names, such as talk show host Chelsea Handler, actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger and Gisele Bundchen and her husband Tom Brady.

It looks like Heidi Klum and her husband Seal are set to become new residents as well.

The couple reportedly had an offer accepted for a property located in the same Brentwood Country Estates gated community in Mandeville Canyon worth $13.4 million.

The house boasts eight bedrooms, a kitchen complete with a fireplace dating back to 1603 which was imported from Scotland and a library fireplace which is allegedly from late military leader Napoleon’s farmhouse in France.

Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal spent Thanksgiving together in New York

The 20-year-old country singer and the movie star hunk were spotted in a coffee shop in Brooklyn yesterday (25.11.10) close to where the actor’s older sister Maggie Gyllenhaal lives.

An onlooker told gossip website JustJared.com: “They asked one of the coffee shop employees for help picking out beans. They both seemed super nice and wound up ordering lattes.”

Along with spending part of Thanksgiving with Jake, Taylor also made time to see her family yesterday but admitted the entertainment in their house was limited.

She tweeted: “Why, at my family gatherings, do we always have to end up YouTubing funny cat videos.. (sic)”

Rumours about the new couple have been circulating since they were spotted holding hands and looking loved-up while on a romantic walk around the same area of New York last month.

A source said at the time: “Taylor and Jake were walking around Park Slope holding hands. They looked like a couple!”

Along with spending Thanksgiving together, Jake is reported to have recently spent £100,000 flying Taylor to London where he was promoting a movie.

The ‘Brokeback Mountain’ actor – who was in the British capital for a press conference for ‘Love And Other Drugs’ earlier this month- flew the country music star in by private jet and the pair were said to be holed up in London’s exclusive Dorchester hotel for two days.

Jake split from actress Reese Witherspoon last December after more than two years together while Taylor has dated ‘Twilight’ actor Taylor Lautner and Disney star Joe Jonas in the past.

Robert Pattinson wears the same thing every day

The ‘Twilight Saga’ hunk loves shopping in thrift stores but admits his fame makes it difficult to make many trips to expand his wardrobe.

He said: “I like kind of s***ty clothes most of the time. I like second hand. That’s another thing. I can’t really go into second hand stores to get new clothes any more so I end up wearing the same thing every day.

“I wish I could shop in vintage stores the whole time. But because a lot of paparazzi follow me around, it can be difficult.”

Though he prefers second hand clothing, the 24-year-old actor – who is dating his ‘Twilight Saga’ co-star Kristen Stewart – turns to designer Marc Jacobs when he is in need of red carpet wear.

He added: “At almost every single premiere I wear Marc Jacobs. It seems to be the only stuff that fits me.”
It has previously been claimed that the British star rarely showers and has upset cast and crew on the ‘Twilight Saga’ with his pungent body odour.

A source close to the star – who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the film franchise – previously said: “He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy. He completely reeks.”

Robert Pattinson has spent $1,000 on a bike

The British actor has splashed out on a 2010 Felt Breed Cyclo-X off-road cycle and has been spotted riding around Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he is currently filing ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn’.

One onlooker said: “He was by himself on his bike for a good portion of yesterday.

“He looked to be having a good time and he was even trying to do tricks with it. He was riding pretty fast at some points too.”

According to the manager of Capitol Cyclery, the 24-year-old star told staff he “didn’t want a mountain bike” and “wanted something simple”.

Robert impressed workers with his down-to-earth attitude.

The store’s manager told HollywoodLife.com: “He didn’t strike me as a movie star when he walked in the door.”

As well as buying a new bike, it was recently claimed the ‘Remember Me’ star is planning to spend £30,000 on a Halloween party.

A source said: “Rob’s organising a huge soiree to celebrate Halloween, he thinks it is going to be hilarious for the cast and crew to dress up in scary costumes.

“The crew are huge fans of Rob and are really looking forward to it. Rob knows how much they all love Halloween so has really gone to town.

“He’s asked a couple of costume designers he knows to make special ghoul costumes for his guests.”

Robert Pattinson takes six months to write a song

The ‘Twilight Saga’ actor – who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the film series – was an aspiring musician before he found success as an actor, but admits he has a slow work rate.

He said: “I write a song every six months. I never write a diary. I think that’s why it takes me so long. You have to summarise your personality changing.”

The actor, who plays piano and guitar as well as singing, has previously had two tracks he has performed, ‘Never Think’ and ‘Let Me Sign’ – both of which were written by other people – included on the first ‘Twilight’ soundtrack.

They were reportedly included by the film’s director Catherine Hardwicke, initially without the British hunk’s knowledge.

Robert has previously said he sees music as his “back-up plan” if being a film star fails, and that he believes he will be famous when he’s dead.

He said: “I am sure I’ll be one of those artists that people don’t pay any attention to while I’m alive, and when I am dead people will go yeah, man, that was a work of art.”

The British actor has decided to treat the cast and crew of the latest instalment in the vampire series ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn’ to a ghoulish bash during a break from filming this weekend, and has even paid for costume designers to create special spooky outfits for them all to wear.

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: “Rob’s organising a huge soiree to celebrate Halloween, he thinks it is going to be hilarious for them all to dress up in scary costumes.

“He’s asked a couple of costume designers he knows to make special ghoul costumes for his guests.”

It is thought the 24-year-old heartthrob will be dressing as famous blood-sucker Dracula for the Los Angeles bash.

Robert is also believed to have splashed out on a Halloween-inspired gift for his girlfriend Kristen Stewart to celebrate the spooky day – which lands on Sunday October 31.

The source explained: “Rob brought a special vintage gold ring with a red heart for Kristen. He’s planning to give it to her just before the bash starts.”

The generous screen hunk is determined for his guests to have fun before they return to the set on Monday (01.11.10), and has ordered in “cauldrons” full of alcohol and soup to help kick the party off in style.

The source added: “Rob has also drafted in caterers to cook massive cauldrons full of soup and ale.

“The cast start shooting again on Monday so are free to spend the weekend having fun and getting into the spirit of things.

“There’s no way the cast of ‘Twilight’ would miss Halloween. It’s a massive event for them and something they’re always up for having a laugh with.”

Robert Pattinson “can’t do anything in America” because of his huge fame

The ‘Twilight’ heartthrob claims his success has presented him with more difficulties in the US than his native Britain because everywhere he goes he is hounded by paparazzi and fans.

He said: “It’s changed more in America. I always thought it would’ve by now in London, but it hasn’t really.

“I can’t do anything in America. I just don’t want to have any stories written about me.

“Anyone who likes going out and having their photo taken all the time, to me, seems an incredibly boring person or very delusional.”

Robert – who is dating his ‘Twilight’ co-star Kristen Stewart - also admits his fame frequently makes him “paranoid”.

He added to Britain’s OK! magazine: “You want to take control of it all the time and it’s impossible. It’s nice sometimes. You do get kind of paranoid, but it allows me to do the films I want to do.”

The competitive duo – who play lovers in the hit vampire series – have also invited co-stars Taylor Lautner and Ashley Greene to join them to beat the boredom during filming breaks.

The heartthrob actor – who stars as vampire Edward Cullen opposite Kristen, who plays Bella Swan in the franchise – has praised her for being a “real woman”.

Robert, who has never confirmed they are dating, said: “What I especially like about her is that she’s like me, not dizzy from fans and press attention. She stays true to herself and very smart for her age.”

Taylor Swift is reportedly dating Jake Gyllenhaal

The 20-year-old country singer and the movie star hunk reportedly spent Sunday (24.10.10) holding hands and looking loved-up whilst on a romantic walk around Brooklyn, New York.

An onlooker told Life and Style magazine: “Taylor and Jake were walking around Park Slope holding hands. They looked like a couple!”

This news comes shortly after Taylor – who has dated ‘Twilight’ star Taylor Lautner and was famously dumped by Joe Jonas over the phone – hit the headlines with her new album ‘Speak Now’, which she claims contains songs aimed at her ex-boyfriends.

She explained: “I will say everything in my music. There’s been extreme joy, extreme pain, extreme curveballs. Sometimes when things impact you so intensely, it takes writing a song to get over them.”

One track on her LP, titled ‘Dear John’, is also heavily rumoured to be aimed at 33-year-old singer John Mayer – who she worked together on a track with last year and was believed to be secretly dating.

The song goes: “Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with? Maybe it’s you and your sick need to give love and take it away.”

She denied it was aimed directly at him, but admitted it was a hard song to release for various personal reasons.

Jake, meanwhile, has been largely single since his relationship with actress Reese Witherspoon ended 10 months ago.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart want to achieve a “Johnny Depp level of fame”

The couple are planning to take some time off after shooting the last film in the series, ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn’, to travel and friends say in the future they want to choose their work so they only act when they want to.

A source said: “After ‘Twilight’ they are aiming for a Johnny Depp level of fame - to work when they want but to get peace and quiet when they don’t.

“Right now, neither has accepted a role after ‘Twilight’ so they may even take a whole year off.”

Robert and Kristen – who star as heartthrob vampire Edward Cullen and his love interest Bella Swann respectively in the series – think it will “do them good to disappear for a while” and the time off will give them perspective on their careers.

The source added to more! magazine: “They think it’ll do them good to disappear for a while as they’re both in danger of being overexposed.

“Kristen knows Keira Knightley, who went on a Himalayan trek a few years ago to get some perspective on the madness of Hollywood. She’s convinced she and Rob should do the same. She wants them to just be a boy and a girl hanging out together.”

The couple are also reportedly planning on holding a romantic ceremony to show their commitment to each other in the city of New Orleans over the summer.

Edward Cullen is the sexiest movie vampire we have ever seen on the big screen. Robert Pattinson has topped ‘Glamour Magazine’s Top 31 Sexiest Vampires’ list.

The 24-year-old Twilight hunk had some tough contenders in this category. He faced strong competition from his Twilight Saga co-stars. Twilight’s Alec (portrayed by Cameron Bright), Victoria (by Rachelle Lefevre and Bryce Dallas Howard), Demetri (by Charlie Bewley ), Alice Cullen (by Ashley Greene), Carlisle Cullen (by Peter Facinelli), Jasper Hale(by Jackson Rathbone), Rosalie Hale (by Nikki Reed), Caius (by Jamie Campbell Bower), Riley Biers (by Xavier Samuel), Emmett Cullen (by Kellan Lutz) were among the 31 vamps at Glamour Magazine.

The Vampire Diaries’ Damon Salvatore, portrayed by Ian Somerhalder hold on to the second place.

The ‘Twilight Saga’ dominated the Teen Choice Awards in August picking up an incredible haul of 11 prizes. Robert and Kristen won the Choice Summer Movie Star: Male and Choice Summer Movie Star: Female accolades respectively.

In 2009, he was also named the “Sexiest Man Alive” by Glamour. Ask Men named Rob as one of the top 49 most influential men of 2009. Pattinson was named one of the “Sexiest Men Alive” in 2008 and 2009 by People magazine. In 2009, Vanity Fair named Pattinson “the most handsome man in the world”.

Kristen Stewart was offered a job as a stripper

The 20-year-old actress visited several lap dancing bars in New Orleans to research her role in new movie ‘Welcome to the Rileys’ and was astonished by the amount of sexy work she could have accepted.

She said: “Well, I mean, like, doing this movie … one shocking thing was to find how easy it is to flaunt your sexuality.

“Like, I went to a strip club with the director and the costume designer and it being an odd grouping of people going into a strip club in the middle of the afternoon, I was straight-up offered a job.”

Kristen – who plays a teenage runaway who becomes a stripper in the film – was also surprised by the amount of male attention she received when walking through the city in her skimpy costumes.

The screen beauty – who is in a relationship with her ‘Twilight Saga’ co-star Robert Pattinson – explained to MTV News: “Walking around New Orleans wearing the kind of stuff I was wearing literally could be like boom, boom, boom, done. But I would never do that.”

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are reportedly planning a voodoo ‘wedding’

The couple – who have refused to confirm they are dating since meeting on the set of the ‘Twilight Saga’ – allegedly want to show their commitment to each other at the unusual ceremony in December.

A source said: “Kristen is quite dark so she wants a ceremony performed by a New Orleans voodoo priestess.

“They’ve both had the crazy highs and lows you get when you’re intensely in love and thousands of miles apart, plus they’ve been coping with the immense pressure of conducting a relationship in the public eye.

“But they’ve now agreed they are serious and want to make a love pledge to show it.”

Kristen, 21, and 24-year-old Robert are keen to keep the details of the service secret and will not wear wedding rings after the service, instead opting to get each other special love tokens and matching tattoos.

The source explained to LOOK magazine: “Instead, Kristen and Robert want to buy each other tokens of devotion.

“They want to keep speculation to a minimum, so won’t get rings, but each is going to choose a present that reminds them of just how much they love each other.

“And they’re going to both get matching tattoos on their hips. They want tiny anchors to symbolise that they ground each other and keep each other calm when things get stormy.”

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart went unrecognised at a recent gig

The ‘Twilight’ stars – who have long been rumoured to be a real life couple – attended a concert by the band Jenny and Johnny at Troubadour in Los Angeles earlier this week, and managed to enjoy a night of almost complete anonymity despite their global fame.

A source said: “It’s very easy for people to blend in which they did amazingly well.

“Almost nobody recognised the two while they were there. The staff was aware, as they get famous people watching shows there all the time and are willing to accommodate their needs if needed.”

Despite managing to go unseen by the majority of concert-goers, some did notice they were behaving as if they were a couple and spent the night “extremely close” to each other.

The onlooker added: “They were close to each other with Kristen in front of Rob almost all night. They never hid the fact they were obviously a couple, they were extremely close the entire time they both were there.

“It looked like they were both enjoying the music but it was Kristen who enjoyed it the most as she was seen singing the songs and there were times she sang songs to Rob, while Rob just smiled and laughed that Kristen was loving it.”

It is the second time this week the couple have ventured out and made it clear they were romantically involved – last Saturday (02.10.10) the pair enjoyed a meal out at top Hollywood restaurant Soho House.

A source said: “They were staring at each other throughout dinner and kept stealing quick kisses from one another during the night. Rob’s arm was around her for most of dinner and they kept looking at each other and giggling throughout the evening. They are definitely into each other.”
