Robert Pattinson Misses Home

His unprecedented rise to stardom has brought Robert Pattinson to be homesick. In fact, the Twilight star has just spent less than a day in his home in Britain this year. He was quite vocal about how he was sad leaving his friends and family in such a short period. That was the hardest part he had to fulfill this year.

With the full throttle promotions of The Twilight Saga: New Moon and the shooting of Breaking Dawn on side, Robert Pattinson's hectic work schedule naturally has its downsides: he never gets time to relax at home in London. Rob shared that: "A week ago, perhaps for 16 hours. That was the first time at home in eleven months." What he did was meet his friends: "Some of them I haven't seen for more than a year, and I saw my parents and sisters. To go away from them after such a short time was the hardest thing I had to do in months."

In quite a nostalgic mood, Robert informed that: "I had the best time of my life (in London). I only had a tiny apartment but there were always friends hanging around. Usually five or six people have been staying with me. It felt so wonderfully unconventional. That was the life I had always been dreaming of. A bit crazy but adequate for a young actor." Being known as Edward Cullen has been quite disconcerting for him because everywhere he goes he gets recognized. In an interview with Gala magazine in Germany, Robert Pattinson stated that he loves to travel and learn about cities and its people but, at present, he says he couldn't go nowhere "without having the feeling of being watched 24/7. I do not like this feeling". In time, you'll get used to all that attention, Rob. Don't get to fussy about being famous.

Robert Pattinson Shirtless New Moon Scene Felt Like 'Striptease'

Robert Pattinson can't hide his being overwhelmed that he had to take his shirt off for Twilight Saga: New Moon. According to Rob, the scene is like him doing 'striptease' in the New Moon set. He was quoted saying at the Parade website he "felt pretty goofy stepping out into the sunlight in front of 2,000 people in a town square" while ripping his shirt off: "I was essentially doing a striptease".

Although he's quite vocal about his indifference, he was surprised about the reaction of people seeing him shooting the scene. He said that the irony of it was that it's one of the moments where he really "felt closest to people's attachment to Edward (Cullen". The 23 year old British actor revealed that: "There were so many extras in that scene who were 'Twilight' fans who had flown in just to be a part of it. It was quite uplifting and it was also very nerve-wracking." Essentially, he is quite embarrassed showing his body compared to the buffed Taylor Lautner. He joked that he was "resentful" of Taylor being muscular and all. Robert Pattinson reacted that: "I didn't see Taylor until just a little bit before we started shooting. I had the same reaction as everybody else. Its like, 'Jeez, now I have to go to the gym.'" In fact, Rob has to have his body in for a “make-up” in order for it look ‘defined’ on-screen. Oh well, forget the gym – girls love your body for the way it is, anyway!

Miley Cyrus Not Watching New Moon

Teen superstar Miley Cyrus is very vocal about her hate over the fuss that her fellow teens are pouring over the Twilight series. Miley insists that she doesn't believe in vampires and you can't even drag her to watch New Moon, Twilight's second installment. Ironically, Miley Cyrus recently signed with Twilight producers Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey to star in in Wings - fantasy movie which is similar in plot with the immensely popular vampire franchise.

Miley Cyrus explained that she does not get all the vampire craziness going on and why people got hooked with a simple story about a school girl who falls in love with a male vampire. The Hannah Montana star added: "I've never seen it and I never will. I don't believe in it. I don't like vampires. I don't like the wolf that pops out of the screen when I'm watching my TV at night. I don't like it. I don't want anything to do with it. I don't like the shirts. I don't like any of it." Although the 16 year old singer-actress feels "really lame" that everyone's excited over New Moon's scheduled showing this weekend, she said that: "I'm like, 'Don't even talk about it.'"

 

Maybe she's just jealous she's not in it. What kind of teenage girl would nor want to see Edward Cullen? Oh well, may be she likes her men toned like her ex-boyfriend Justin Gaston.

Move over, Hugh Jackman! People magazine has crowned its new Sexiest Man Alive 2009 in the person of Twilight hottie Robert Pattinson. As usual, Rob is still in hesitation whether he really deserved this recognition. But, as the millions of Team Edward would see it, the 23 year old British young actor is certainly the rightful owner of that title this year.

Robert also stated some fight scenes he'll be doing in the third installment, Breaking Dawn.

Robert Pattinson Surprised at the Extent of What Twi-Hard Fans Would Do

Robert Pattinson has just seen much about how obsessed the Twilight fanatics can get. Lately, Rob has seen fans travel from the other side of the world just to see him shoot a "dying scene" of Edward Cullen in their new installment New Moon. This scene had to be shot in Italy, where his character Edward will expose himself in the sunlight. When fans heard this, some trooped all the way to Italy just to take a glimpse at this momentous scene.

The 23 year old British actor explained that the scene was shot in "a town square in Italy and it was the closest moment I came to realizing the fan attachment to this character. People from around the world heard about the filming and flew into that town square to see Edward Cullen die. Most wanted to stop him from taking that one step into the light. Honestly, I felt this weight of anticipation and the responsibility to the fans who are obsessed with these stories." RPattz has quintessentially been vocal about how he struggled to cope with his humongous fame and is now trying not to lose his cool about. In fact, Robert Pattinson admits that he gets paranoid sometimes. Yet, he mentioned that he's beginning to stop whining about the craziness of the fame he's getting because he can virtually do nothing about it.

Robert Pattinson Likes Weirdo Roles

Although he's like the hottest Hollywood heartthrob to date, Robert Pattinson is not digging that 'hot item' that he is in reality when it comes to his movie roles. In fact, Rob has this penchant to do weirdo roles. The Twilight star says that he's attracted to the unorthodox roles that he plays. Aside from being that love struck vampire Edward Cullen, Robert Pattinson also played the eccentric painter Salvador Dali in Little Ashes and he also portrayed an out-of-the-box musician in How To BE. The reason for his preference for weirdo roles, RPattz explained, is that he can then blame any criticisms of his performance on the character's personality.

That's quite a good excuse if he makes a bad performance in these movies! Robert Pattinson mentioned:"When you play a weirdo you always have an excuse - 'He's a weirdo'. I was a weirdo in The Haunted Airman and I just changed my opinion about everything." Robert also recounted how disappointed he was that his appearance in Vanity Fair was cut and he only noticed it upon watching the screening itself. Rob recounted that: "Tom Sturridge and I had scenes right next to each other (in Vanity Fair) and it was our first jobs. We went to the screening and we thought the whole thing was a joke anyway, because we had no idea what we were doing. We watched Tom's scene and were like, 'Yeah, that's pretty good' and then I was sitting there going, 'Ummm really?' No one had told me that I had been cut out?" Don't worry RPattz, right now - all your appearances are being in the center of everything for Team Edward.

Kristen Stewart Mum About Robert Pattinson Romance Rumors

Are they breaking up or are they just cooling off? Don't ask Kristen Stewart about it! Coz she won't answer any press questions about Robert Pattinson! Which is kind of a drag, actually! K-Stew has just this to say to all of the burning questions fired at her: "I probably would've answered it if people hadn't made such a big deal about it."

During the Entertainment Weekly interview in Vancouver, Kristen Stewart would refuse to blurt out any juicy details. She's been actually irritated with all the fuss their getting to the point that she said Rob and her aren't dating because she's a lesbian. Of course, we know it's just a joke to avoid further digging into what's the real score between them. With all these questions about their romance unanswered, fans will surely be flocking in theaters on November 20 to watch New Moon to see if there's a semblance of romance in both reel and real life. If there’s any consolation, at least Kristen is not denying what she and Rob have – whatever it is!

Robert Pattinson Feels Like Blob

If there's a Halloween costume that Robert Pattinson might be wearing, it's not Dracula. This is because RPattz, who's often voted as Hollywood's sexiest men, feels like he's a cartoon character and feels like that bloated X-men villain The Blob. This is the reason for his being astonished that girls really like him and how he get booked for modeling assignments before. Robert disparaged himself: "I look like an idiot - one of my legs is slightly longer than the other. I was such a terrible model. I was really tall but still looked like a six-year-old." Admittedly, these insecurities about his looks make it difficult for him to cope with his intense popularity as one of Hollywood's biggest stars.

Robert further explained that he's "unbearably self-conscious about stuff" and he's "trying not to drown" with all the attention he's getting: "I guess I'm not the type of guy cut out to do a franchise. I'm not much of a crowd person." In fact, Robert Pattinson mentioned that it was Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke who worked hard to make him that attractive as Edward Cullen. In an interview for Vanity Fair, director Hardwicke said: "They called me up and they literally said, 'Catherine, do you think you can make this guy look good?' So I said, 'Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get his hair back to a different color, do a different style. He would work with a trainer from now on. My cinematographer is great with lighting. He will study the cheekbones, and I promise you, we'll make the guy look good." That's a good thing though, Robert Pattinson and his reluctance that he looks cute may be the key why girls love even him more than those self-conscious muscled hunky stars.
