Robert Pattinson is not exactly known for being overly gregarious with his fans in public. But who knows – that could change if he keeps hanging out with Pierce Brosnan.

The two actors worked together in the upcoming film Remember Me, and in their downtime together, the former James Bond, 56, mentored the young Twilight heartthrob in the art of handling the gawking masses.

"He's totally recognizable, and he makes no effort to tone it down," Pattinson tells Vogue for its March issue. "Some people were glancing over at us in the restaurant, and he just went over and introduced himself. And it does work. It dissipates all the attention."

He may no longer be Bond – but Pierce Brosnan still leaves ladies shaken and stirred.

"Total smooch factor!" That's how Mamma Mia!'s director Phyllida Lloyd described his appeal as she made her way into the movie's New York premiere Wednesday night.

"He's incredibly smoochy," concurred producer Judy Craymer, who created the idea for both the Broadway show and the film. "There isn't a 15-year-old or an 85-year-old who doesn't love Pierce."

Mamma Mia! star Amanda Seyfried gets very excited if you mention a certain British actor and a former Bond man.

"He's so sexy, Colin Firth, so sexy [and] will always be," Seyfried, 22, told Entertainment Tonight as she giggled about her Mamma Mia! costar.

And she feels equally as lucky when it comes to sharing the screen with another handsome actor: Pierce Brosnan.

"Shooting in the summer of '07 on the 007 [sound]stage with a 007, that's one of the things he said to me, and I was like, 'You're right, I am lucky,' because he's a studly, studly man!" the actress says.

Halle Gives School The Dress Off Her Back

Originally posted 04/28/2005 08:50AM

DONATED: Halle Berry (class of '84) is true to her school, giving two of her designer gowns to Cleveland's Bedford High so they can be auctioned during a prom fashion show and raise money to send students on a field trip to the Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati. "She always said that if I need anything to let her know," Yvonne Sims, a guidance counselor and Berry's fifth-grade teacher, tells the Associated Press. (Berry has told InStyle that Sims was her childhood role model.) One dress is a knee-length geometric print that Berry wore on an Ebony magazine cover last year. The other is a white Versace halter-style she wore to a party after the debut of Lackawanna Blues, the HBO film she produced. Bidding, which ends Thursday, starts at $500 per dress.

But with Salma Hayek as his costar, he's just as lucky with the ladies as 007. Brosnan, 52, recently chatted about going casual and creating his own paradise.
