Robert Pattinson Attends Coachella With Katy Perry Not Kristen Stewart (PHOTO)

Robert Pattinson was photographed enjoying the Coachella music festival with a group of friends including Katy Perry on Saturday.

The British actor, 27, kept a relatively low profile and appeared to be in good spirits while taking in sights and sounds at the annual two-weekend, three-day music and arts festival in Indio, Calif. At one point he was seen mingling with Perry and fashion designer Alexander Wang while in the VIP section during Major Laxer's set, according to Daily Mail UK.

Pattinson's ex-girlfriend Kristen Stewart, 24, was noticeably absent from this year's festival and insiders claim this is because she opted to stay in New Orleans where filming for her new movie "American Ultra" begins this week.

The "Maps To The Stars" actor and Stewart, who celebrated her birthday on April 9, are said to be on friendly terms despite their May 2013 split and while she previously made plans to join the actor at Coachella this year, she changed her mind at the last minute.

"Kristen doesn't care if Rob and Katy spend time together," an insider told HollywoodLife.com.

"She knows they are just friends. She just wishes she could have been there, but her works comes first," the source explained.

The "Twilight" actress reportedly made plans to celebrate her birthday all weekend long at Coachella, however, she instead opted to remain out of the spotlight.

"Kristen is super bummed that she missed Coachella. She planned on going but decided to stay in New Orleans since shooting starts tomorrow [Tuesday, April 15]. She wanted to be fresh and rested," the source said

"Of course she's disappointed that she didn't get to hang out with Rob ... that was really the main reason she wanted to go in the first place. But we sent her funny pics and texts and so did Rob," the alleged friend revealed.

During the event Pattinson reportedly had an awkward run-in with model Liberty Ross, the estranged wife of director Rupert Sanders. In 2012 both the "Life" actor and Ross were left heartbroken after Stewart's affair with Sanders came to light and subsequently both relationships ended.

"[They] didn't speak to each other, but both definitely saw each other," one onlooker told E! News.

"He was cool, she was cool and they just kept moving along," the insider said adding that the situation was "extremely awkward."
