Soko & Robert Pattinson Went on a Blind Date Before She Started Seeing Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart : Soko

Apparently, the 30-year-old French singer made the big move to Hollywood on a total whim. During an interview with A Music Blog, Yea? back in 2015, Soko (real name: Stephanie Sokolinski) enthusiastically revealed a few things about her initial arrival in Los Angeles.

"It was the best thing ever! Three nights in, I went out and met a girl who was like, 'Hey, I like your music, I work for a label and we would love to sign you. Where are you staying, do you need a place to stay?' and I was like, 'Yeah I do," she said.

But the "We Might Be Dead by Tomorrow" crooner's story gets much more interesting, when she revealed she spent some time with Stewart's ex, Robert Pattinson on a blind date.

Soko was so amped-up, she didn't get to elaborate on what happened between her and the Twilight heartthrob later that evening. But, a serious relationship didn't evolve.

Still, K-Stew dated the 29-year-old British actor for several years before cheating on him with Snow White and the Huntsman roducer Rupert Sanders. Pattinson is now happily engaged to English performing artist FKA Twigs while Stewart continues getting closer to Soko.

Rather weird connection, right?

Still, this date hasn't hurt Soko's growing relationship with the 25-year-old Clouds of Sils Maria actress. Although she has yet to confirm anything, the "Take My Heart" singer did recently tell W magazine, "I'm very, very, very in love and very happy in a relationship... [How we met] was very OG."

While grabbing some food over the holiday weekend, Soko was spotted getting extremely affectionate with Stewart.

Soko released her follow-up studio album My Dreams Dictate My Reality back in March 2015.
