. She’s going to write songs? She’s spending a lot of time in Nashville these days with her Idolator, so she’s talking about getting into music.
That woman has serious issues. She should get her fact straight. Reed has been writing songs for a while, she even co-write a song with Pattinson's sister Elisabeth (Hands I believe?)
but the fact is that Kristen and Rob aren't the first gang she was tight with and then just suddenly distant from and i'm taking that as a clue, actually that's the only visible and confirmed thing from the observation of her behavior (there was Ryan Phillipe, then LiLO, then Amanda S. etc) so i'm giving everything a benefit of doubt.
What do you call distant? Maybe just like me and some other folks, she "rotates" a lot between different sets of friends given her mood and current interest. I don't see what's wrong with that

Pattinson works non-stop and we don't know half of what Stewart does since she is never papped. For all we know they could have parties at Stewart place and no one would know. Reed became friend with Stewart through Angarano and Hardwicke. She is still very much friends with both of them and always go support them. She also seems perfectly fine with Stewart. As for Pattinson, you could say the same thing for Ashley Greene. She used to go to nightclubs with Pattinson, he even visited her in Florida (she said so in an interview), yet it doesn't seem like they are so "close" anymore. People change, evolved, go on with their lives..
As for being engaged, it's not because some dates 10 years and will never get married or get married after 10 years that you can't get engaged after 4 month if you know you finally found someone you want to build something with. It irks me when people can talk about the strength of a relationship just by counting the years/months of courtship.. You also don't know if they want to get engaged for a long or a short time (some engagement last more than a year).
I remember last year too she was talking about how friendly she is with the redhead from True Blood. I wonder if they are still friendly?
I am a fan of Charlize Theron and in one interview she said she was "besties" with Demi Moore I would have
never tell. I have never seen her hang out with Moore or Smith (outside of work). What I want to say is : we don't know what happens in their life 24/7, we don't know with whom they are really friends. We don't know if they have poker night or sleepover so it's quite rude to assume that Nikki R. uses people and throw them away (that's the feeling I get from L. article and some comments about her) while it could not be further away from the truth.
and to not be completely OT : BD promo is going to be interesting if American journalists can grill them with their relationship (I am sure Regis will try

)
