For someone who can’t go to a shopping mall without getting mobbed, Robert Pattinson seems awfully uncomfortable in the spotlight. The actor told The Times he hates to watch himself on screen, though he said he might make an exception for “Twilight.”
“I am kind of curious. I guess now the character has become this semi-iconic thing to quite a lot of people.”
Um, you could say that.
Pattinson, or R. Patz, as he’s been dubbed by the adoring fandom, said he knew that big changes were in store as soon as he landed the role of Edward in the movie adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s bestselling novel. What tipped him off? Teenage girls began following him around London.
“It’s happened since the day it got said that I was playing the part,” Pattinson said, running his hands through his hair. “It was like a day when it changed. [People went from saying] ‘Are you the guy from ‘Harry Potter’? to ‘It’s Edward!’ It’s really, really strange.”
When asked if he thinks he’ll ever become accustomed to that aspect of his newfound celebrity, he simply replied, “No. It’s just a certain amount of acceptance, I guess. The only kind of strange thing is when you get photographed,” he continued. “When people come up to you, it’s completely understandable, but if someone’s secretly photographing you that’s kind of weird. I don’t think you’d ever get used to that. You can’t really live normally when that’s happening. But people coming up to you is always kind of nice. I don’t do anything during my day, so it’s someone to talk to.”

Oh, he is so adorable that I want to cry! I cannot imagine the horror of being secretly photographed (okay, I spy the pap shots like everyone else). But, it makes sense to at least ask Rob's permission. I don't know what I would say if I ever had to speak to him----it would sound like "THUD", silence and possible mouth to mouth. Gawd, I wish!
I am so praying i get to meet him in Dallas. I'm getting nervous just thinking of it. I feel like I'm getting ready for a first date or something with the really hot guy you've had a crush on forever and he finally notices you...
Yeah...I wish! Ladies,check your e-mails. I've been a naughty little author again!
Oh my goodness he is edible. I just imagine him doing this interview switching from standing on one foot to the other rocking about, running his fingers through his hair and fidgiting, and saying "normally" in that wonderful accent. He is just so cute it is unbelievable. I adore this character, honestly he is perfection.
OOOOOOOO I wanna read Jewels!!
Dani---I know Rob's character is perfect like a good merlot!
I'll drink to that, cheers!
Jewels---I read it, Naughty! Love it.
Sweet, Sweet guy.. Come on everyone... you have to admit that because he appears to be SO LOVELY on the inside (as well as the outside) that this is a HUGE part the reason we all so enamored.
If he was a complete ass, we'd admire the wrapping and move on.
*looks* on-line for cheap ticket to LA so I go chat with Rob.
Tasper---spot on as always! Good morning!

Making the world more beautiful one post at a time
Awww cutie!
I'd love and come chat with you!!! My only wish at the moment is to meet this amazing person once. It seriously will make my life!
Thank u!
Tess you are spot on with the Rob talk. He is such a neat guy, really admirable. And sweet as all get out and honest, funny, witty and smart. No wonder we all like him so much. And the wrapping is perfect for what it is covering which is a really nice person. So great to see that in a new comer not jadded but just such a good outlook on things.
Tess - I agree with you 100%. From everything we have seen of him, Rob just seems like such a decent, wonderful guy on the inside. And he's of course gorgeous on the outside too, but I think many of us react to him the way we do because he seems like such a nice, charming, lovely person.
OMFG I just saw the new video footage!!! Ahhhhhh I can't wait for this. Rob as Edward is perfect :)
I couldn't adore him more!
But people coming up to you is always kind of nice. I don’t do anything during my day, so it’s someone to talk to.”
Weird that he thinks stalker Paps are intrusive though - LOL... Kidding, Poor guy!
That's our Boy!! Charming all the way from his big feet to his dazzling hair!
8 MIN footage from Rome - turn down your speakers because it is loud and so is the screaming at parts.
