Midas Touch: Adaline's RPattz Encounter Results in 20,000 Blog Hits

The Vancouver Sun reports on how a chance encounter with Robert Pattinson changed the life of Vancouver indie artist Adaline:

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.

P.S. Wow, I really like Adaline's music!

P.P.S. Let's ponder The Economics of Robert Pattinson: People are making $ off of knowing / using Robert (e.g. Oscars, musician friends, pap sites, etc.), whether maliciously or not. He deserves some mad tips -- or at least a beer! ;-)
