And the girls could not have been more excited — especially Gabby, since Rob is her celeb crush. She told Entertainment Tonight, "I'm a big Twilight fan. I read the book, like, five times. I mean, yeah, Rob's pretty cute. He's definitely my crush in Twilight."

Meanwhile, Kristen, who was supposed to attend with Rob, pulled out of the event to avoid any awkwardness. Instead, she went to the Toronto International Film Festival to promote On the Road, which opens in limited release on Dec. 21.
