Rob comes in at #4 Man of the year! I beg to differ for the choice of #3 but then again I'm not a teenage girl :-)
4. Robert Pattinson
2008 Highlights: Starred as Edward Cullen in a little movie by the name of "Twilight," which bowed in November to record receipts and mass hysteria ... Mobbed by fans at Comic-Con in San Diego ... Sang a pair of songs on the "Twilight" soundtrack ... Temporarily lost his hearing at the "Twilight" premiere in Hollywood ... Invited "Twilight" fans to hurl themselves at him ... Subject of innumerable bits of fan fiction too risqué and/or disturbing to reprint here ... Has amazing hair ... Quite possibly stole actress Camilla Belle away from Joe Jonas ... Will play artist Salvador Dalí in next year's "Little Ashes" ... Is so pale and brooding he might actually be a vampire.
I could just be really shallow
Robert Pattinson: I'm introverted
Tuesday, December 16, 2008
Robert Pattinson reckons he is a bit of an introvert at heart - like his Twilight character Edward Cullen.
However the British actor admitted his friends don't always have the same opinion of him.
He revealed: "I'm sort of introverted. I mean I always think I'm introverted and then I find out from people that I've told them literally everything about my life within about two meetings so I can't be that introverted or I could just be really shallow." (Accompanying video is HERE:) We've seen it before but it's still cute)
The star added he enjoyed playing his character as a man of few words, though he found it a challenge.
"Too many scripts are explicit as to describing a character's emotions," he says. "One of the things I liked about Edward is he's very honest with himself. He's not frivolous with his words. In the script he says very little and whatever he does say is very much contrived."
He continued: "I thought it was quite daunting to go into something where so many people were saying he's literally the perfect person.
"But when it came down to it, it's just (author) Stephanie Meyer's idea. It's not actually the perfect person and people have different taste, so it wasn't that intimidating after a while."
Twilight is released in the UK on Friday.

Pattinson had hardest Twilight role
Okay there is nothing really new in this article but I haven't posted anything for more than 2 days dammit! And I am going through Robsessed withdrawal :P So here you go, msn interview with Catherine and the picture used is made by Genny and sent to us :-))
Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke reckons Robert Pattinson had the most difficult job in the movie as vampire Edward Cullen.
"I think that Edward is really the most difficult role because if you read the book he is supposed to be the most handsome man in the world and he has to look like he's in High School," the director says. "There goes Brad Pitt and many other people - you can't choose him - you have to almost find somebody new that has an amazing, soulful face."
Catherine was grateful she found 22-year-old Robert Pattinson, whose performance as the 'vegetarian' vampire has got teen hearts fluttering across the Atlantic.
"I saw Robert in Harry Potter but I didn't really have a feeling until he flew over from London and we had an audition at my house and you saw how he and Kristen worked together," she said. "Then I started to really feel that chemistry and that they had this connection that could be good for the movie."
The director says she wasn't worried about casting a British man to star in an adaptation from a series of bestselling American books.
"He's a wonderful actor and when he came and did the audition, he did a wonderful American accent," she recalled. "He just became Edward, which is this 108 year old guy with all these issues, talents and struggles."
Official 'New Moon' Release Date
'New Moon' rises on November 20, 2009
Fanggirls, mark your calendars.
Yesterday, you officially got a director, and today, you officially have a release date: New Moon will cross the horizon on November 20, 2009.
About a Boy's Chris Weitz directs the Twilight sequel and, oh yeah, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson return as Bella Swan and Edward Cullen.
As of right now, the vampire and his mortal love will have several major movies to battle for box-office glory on that fateful day, the most challenging of which are Sherlock Holmes, starring Robert DowneyJr., and a Three Stooges flick written and directed by the Farrelly brothers.
