"It's funny what a chance encounter with the world's hottest vampire will do for your career.
Adaline, one of Canada's up n' coming indie-pop stars, ran into Twilight's Robert Pattinson — a.k.a. bloodsucker Edward Cullen — at a club in Vancouver.
She wrote about the experience on Twitter and MySpace, which was then posted to several Pattinson fan sites. In less than 24 hours, flocks of Twilight fans were checking out her MySpace page. How cool is that?
As a token of her appreciation, Adaline is now offering a free download of her single, Whiter/Straighter, from her delicious debut, Famous For Fire.
"Who would have ever thought that one small Twitter post would result in over 20,000 plays of my music and hundreds and hundreds of personal messages of encouragement!" she writes on her blog.
"What is most touching is that many of you have said that even though you came across my website because of my chance meeting with Robert, that many of you are staying because of my music. This is why I make music — so I can share it with you. So thank you for the kind words — for telling me which songs are speaking to you — for passing on my website to your friends and family. I am so grateful."
Here's an excerpt from the entry that started it all: " . . . I was at a Juno Afterparty at Richards on Richards (in Vancouver) . I'm hanging out upstairs and I look over . . . it's Robert Pattinson. I couldn't believe it! I spent the next few minutes trying to figure out how to say hi and what I could say that wouldn't sound crazy.
"I walked over and he was saying to another girl, 'I can't do that. I can't do that,' so I pulled up beside him and said, 'What can't you do Robert' and he said, 'I can't take pictures tonight.'
So I leaned over and said, 'I don't need a picture of you. You're just a normal person trying to have a good time. I'm just happy to have this moment with you. Sometimes people want a piece of you, more specifically, a piece of Edward. I'm happy to be meeting you. At the end of the day, you're just like me.'
"At that point, he pulled me into an warm embrace and said in my ear, 'You are the first person to say that to me all day, thank you. Honestly, thank you.' I said, 'You're welcome. We're the same.'
"I told him about how I was a performer, so you never know, maybe he'll be at a show someday! In the end it was lovely to meet the man who so well depicted the character so many people love. I can tell you two things: 1) Even though Robert is not Edward, he has the same intense stare in real life. It took me off guard. 2) He smells lovely. The stinky thing is a bunch of tabloid garbage."
