There is something off about this interview, either the translation or it's not legit... it's late and I may or may not be under the influence of a drink or two - so I won't judge right now! Pretty pictures though :-)
Studentmagasinet Met with Rob in London January 22, 2010
Translation:
Some ask him to bite them and others hate him. In reality, Robert Pattinson is neither a hot vampire, or a jerk, he is rather an incredibly humble 23-year-old who is one of the world's hottest actors, right now. And we got to meet him.
When you tell people that you've met Robert Pattinson, you get different reactions. Most of the 40-years old people, look at you with a questioning facial expression. But teenage girls (and those who have past their teens) screaming hysterically and often wonder if Rob is just as good in reality as he is on film. But most guys see the most acid one and sincerely hope that Rob is a shit boot because their girlfriends are hopelessly in love with Rob's "perfect" character, Edward in the Twilight Saga. -Most people have preconceived ideas about me, "said Robert, when Student magazine hits on him in the roar luxury hotel Dorchester on Park Lane in London -The funny thing is that many young, female fans confuse me with Edward and thinks that we are the same person. Which is to say the least diseased, given that Edward is a vampire.
Robert smiles and says that since he met several fans who have asked him to bite them. -Some girls baring his throat and begs and asks for me to put teeth into their neck. I declines politely but firmly and try to explain that it would hurt. The sexy vampire Edward Cullen and Twilight movies has become a mega success worldwide.
-When we recorded the Twilight, we had no idea how big it would become. We were in an old school in the middle of the woods in the countryside outside Vancouver, Canada. When the film came out, I and my cast mates became super actress celebrities overnight. It was bizarre and scary.Wherever I went I was met by fans who became so excited that they just stood and cried and screamed. Most celebrities of Roberts calibration hates their fame. But he is more realistic than that
-My fame has opened doors, I get lots of offers and I select accurately to avoid falling into a trap where the movie branch only think I can play a sort of role. Vampires are all very well, but I would like to show that I can play other kinds of roles, too. Robert says he admires Leonardo di Caprio. "When Leo became a superstar in the Titanic, he took a break afterwards. He partied and had vacation for a few years before he went to arbeta. I admire him, he is a talented actor who has made many good films.
Robert does not want leave. He argues that he would prefer to strike while the iron is hot. -For the moment I work in England with a film where I play against Christina Ricci, Kristin Scott Thomas and Uma Thurman and I have sex with all three! I could simply not refuse.
Robert laughs and drinks the water directly from a two-liter bottle. He wipes his mouth and puts down the bottle on the floor with a bang. Robert, or Rob as his friends call him, is commonly dressed in loose-fitting black jeans, brown wool sweater and black training shoes. He has a full beard, which he first red pillar with while he was talking, and on his head he wears a black cap with the initials LB in gold letters. -What does LB stand for?
- I do not know. I think that it stands for "Long Beach" but AJG bought that hat in Tokyo. Fashion doesn't seem to be Roberts thing. He says with a smile that he is an actor who is more interested in making good movies yet to be known as a kind of fashion icon.
Roberts upcoming movie, "Remember Me" is a relationship drama set in New York. His mother in the film is played by Swede Lena Olin, who we last saw in The Reader and the father is played by Pierce Brosnan (Mamma Mia! And James Bond). In the film, Robert also has a younger sister whom he worships. "I have always liked to have a little sister. I have older sisters, but there is something sweet to have to care for and protect a younger sibling. Peyton List who plays my little sister in the film is a superb actor and a very cute girl. Emilie de Ravin plays Robert's girlfriend in the movie. -Emilie is a really nice girl, we became friends during the recording. The guy I play, Tyler, is quite similar to me. He cares about his friends, is quite serious, rebellious, and believe in justice.
"When I was younger I went through a period when I was mad at everybody and everything, but I've calmed down a bit now. I have more patience and tolerance towards people who think like me and who choose to live their lives differently".
Robert has become accustomed to being watched and persecuted by the fans, especially young female ones, but there is still great potential to be anonymous when you feel like it. Just such a thing as the rumor that he is dating Kristen Stewart, who is the female co-star in the Twilight movies. Both refused to comment on a word about it and they are seldom seen in pictures together, although they apparently hit their free time.
- It is important to keep a low profile. I can walk up the street, with Skrutt clothes and beard, biting your nails and look down the hill. It's not a soul who will notice me then. I'm just a guy in the crowd. Robert laughs at the memory of how he did a bit on Christmas Eve last-second shopping at HMV on Oxford Street in London. "I was there to buy CDs and DVDs for Christmas for my family. The store was packed with people but there was no one who started talking to me or ask me for an autograph. It was a lovely but quite funny feeling to be so anonymous in the crowd. Moreover, it was extra sick because it was Twilight posters all over the shop with my face på.Jag played with the idea to put me next to a poster, pointing to it and shouting "it's me!".
Sorry all readers who would prefer to hate Robert Pattinson, he's actually really nice in real life. He has the distance and his celebrity does not appear to have gone to his head.He seems to thrive quite well with life as a film star. But there is one thing that he does not. "I am a musician, and before I became famous I used to play several gigs a week, but I have stopped doing that.I do not have the time and since I have no desire to act on, it should be made for big deal out of it.
If I were to make a small appearance, it would not be a small secret gig. It would be a great thing, people would shoot with their phones and upload it on Youtube, but I would not risk a lot of poorly filmed material with appalling sound ports where the media can put teeth into it and saw me as a musician and songwriter. I would not fix it, and then let me rather be performing. In all cases, temporary.
Gossip Dance
Doesn't sound 'Robbish' to me
ReplyDeleteThis is full of so many mistakes and holes that there's no way this is real...
ReplyDeleteI realize phrases can be different when translated but Rib doesn't talk thus way...
We all know twilight was not filmed in Vancouver and we all know his little sister in Remember Me is Ruby, not Payton, or whatever...no way Rob made these comments or the mistakes....
The only thing that sounds right is tge beard, the hat & the fact that's he's filming bel ami...
I call bullshit...
What is with me & Rib?????
ReplyDeletelost in translation? love the pic though, one of my favorites

Well I don't know; to me it seems real although the translation seems to be bad; lots of words to translate a few in English I guess. Didn't he say lately that he listens more to the others while on set cos he found out he can't be right all the time? Here he said he respects more the others whether they think the same as him or not. And well why not with the last minute shop in London on x-mas eve; this could be true too. Since it's a new interview, that's normal we get new stuff too even little stories like that. It's not because there are mistakes about names and all that it's all bullshit and made up.
ReplyDeleteAnd well one last thing, since it's a Swedish mag and the interviewer seemed to be Swedish as well, so who knows how it worked inbetween the original interview until this got printed. I mean the interviewer (foreign one) translated it and gave it to his secretary who maybe got some names wrong etc; maybe she was multitasking lol; who knows.
ReplyDeleteIn Swedish this interview doesn't seem strange at all. It def sounds like Rob.
ReplyDeleteThe translation into English though... I don't know who or what did it, but it's baaad!
Just have to give you some examples because it's actually quite funny...
ReplyDeleteHe says "I bought that hat" but it translates that "AJG(who??) bought that hat".
Or this:
"he has a full beard which he fiddles with" becomes something with "first red pillar"??
No wonder you don't think it's legit! But if they say they met him in London at certain date and at a specific hotel, I can asure you that they really did. This is not a tabloid and they would never make an interview up!

It sounds real. The translation was probably by a Swedish person whose translating skills are slightly less than par, however! I can understand how it happened, the words being thrown around to suit first the Swedish grammar, and then back to the English grammar. Some Swedish words were left in, like 'arbeta' instead of 'work' and 'Jag' instead of 'I' - It's quite cute actually.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm pretty sure this one is legit, just badly translated.
ReplyDelete"I have always liked to have a little sister. I have older sisters, but there is something sweet to have to care for and protect a younger sibling." That's sweet- I know the feeling, I have older sisters as well and always wanted to have a younger brother.
I also liked the Christmas shopping story. That must've been quite bizarre.. didn't expect him to be able to wander around Oxford Street without people molesting him. It's nice, though, I'm happy for him that he can still be anonymous a lot of the time.
Most of you know Rob better than I do, but it just sounds like a poor translation to me. Otherwise it is pretty much the same information we already know to be true. Girls love him, some older women don't know who he is, boyfriends hate him. Young teens expect him to be like Edward. He's in a movie with Christina Ricci, Uma Thurman and Kristen Scott Thomas and gets to sleep with all three of them (how could I refuse? sounds like Rob to me). They didn't expect Twilight to be such a hit. He has more anonimity in London. He doesn't talk about his relationship with Kristen but they seem to spend free time together, he's a musician and would love to open mikes but it would be all over youtube and he wouldn't have any control over what is on there so he doesn't do it. All of this sounds pretty much like Rob to me. What is the actress's name who plays his little sister? Wasn't Twilight filmed in Portland to begin with and New Moon in Vancouveer?
ReplyDeleteThe swedish version sounds legit... :) Didn't bother to read the english translation after the comments, maybe I'll do it later when I get some more time... :)
ReplyDeleteThe Swedish is well-written and sounds legit.
ReplyDeletePeyton List plays Samantha in Remember Me, another little girl. It could have been an honest mix up.

I do not know the magazine, though!
yeah who is AJG??? im DEFINITELY interested in the LB hat ;)))
ReplyDeleteVery Funny translation..Example:
ReplyDeleteThe quote: "Which is to say the least diseased, given that Edward is a vampire." Diseased should be 'sick' - that it is weird that people think theyre the same.
another one: the ABJ thing - It should be "I think that it stands for "Long Beach" but I bought that hat in Tokyo" - ABJ is scrambled from 'jag' wich means 'I'.
Another one: "..poorly filmed material with appalling sound ports where the media can put teeth into it and saw me as a musician and songwriter. I would not fix it, and then let me rather be performing. In all cases, temporary." First off: "port" should be "end up". "Saw" should be "criticize". Sounds a bit funny, but our language is lika that- we use words that mean a lot of things when taken out of its context.
Real interview indeed!
The christmas thing - do you remember the pics that came around x-mas with him and TomStu shopping for undies and dvd's(and eating at Nandos)? funny, but the pappz saw him anyway.. :)
so glad he got to go shop incognito on Christmas Eve! sounds just like a hilariously bad translation to me.
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be a few factual mistakes here... but in my experience journalists aren't always the most careful with details and their accuracy. The translation was beyond ridiculous; some specifically Swedish expressions have been translated word by word and don’t make any sense at all in English. It’s probably legit, never read this magazine though so I wouldn’t know… but what he says in it isn’t really earth shattering anyway. Thanks for posting it though! (Oh and yes, I’m Swedish. JS)
ReplyDeleteDefinately lost in translation!
