A kiss from Robert Pattinson was auctioned off at the Cannes film festival last night to raise money for amfAR's annual Cinema Against AIDS. Feeling extra generous Pattinson decided to auction off kisses to two different people. How much does a kiss from Robert Pattinson cost? Just a wopping $20,000.
Other items auctioned off at Cannes included former president Clinton's Alpine Alto saxophon, a 1995 Bruce Weber picture of Sean Penn, and a private screening of the Brad Pitt-Quentin Tarantino movie Inglourious Bastards. Josh Hartnett offered to strip to raise money for the charity, but sadly the bids never got high enough.
A total of more than $1 million was raised at the charity auction. "This is an amazing turnout this year, and we've doing this for 15 years. I think, considering the economy, we did a great job here tonight," amfAR chairman Harvey Weinstein said.
