Rob in Vanity Fair Italy

Vampiro is sezy for me, lol.



From PattinsonLife . Mayfran "I tried to translate the article, you can read it."

Los Angeles, February: I found one of his biographies ( well, he is born in 1986, already a biography!) on a bookshelf in Book Soup library in West Hollywood, and I read it entirely. Not a great exploit, the book is 100 pages with a lot of pics, the author is Paul Sterling, you can see the book on Amazon. I Discover that Rob was an incompetent at school, he was really thin and when he shooted Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ( his role was Cedric Diggory ), the production made him working out, to amount his muscles. He declares: “ I was very uncomfortable. I stayed often at the borders of the set and wanted to throw up”.

Los Angeles, April: during a business dinner at Chateau Marmont, I met Catherine Hardwicke, the director of Twilight. I had her over a barrel to make her telling the story of the casting for Edward Cullen’s role. “ We have seen a lot of guys. Robert impressed me a lot, but the rest of the production didn’t want him: they found him ugly, ugly, ugly! But I am a hardhead and I call him together with Kristen Stewart at my home. I put them laying on my bed and they tried a dialogue. They were perfect together”.
Excerpt from the interview.
He enters in the empty and anonymous room, he shakes my hand and seats on the couch beside me, leaning his head in his hands waiting for the first question. He wears a pair of jeans with holes and a dark skirt with sleeves rolled up.

He appears shy and kind, with narrowed eyes from sleep depriving.

Were you at some party yesterday evening?
“Three, and all wrongs. Every time I came in, the party was already finishing. The third was the worst. I was with Emile Hirsh and his girlfriend, we entered in this villa, and there was almost nobody, except for a hundred of photographers. It seemed a paparazzi convention. We speed away!”

In New Moon you are barely present: only in flashbacks and some scenes. Are you sorry about this? “To the contrary, so I’m not under too much pressure”.

Because, in this last year, pressure has been a constant in your life.
“It’s bizarre becoming famous in this way. Believe me,. It’s something that I never wished.”

What did you wish?
“I hadn’t projects, I had no particular dream. I always livde day by day.”

You were in a band, the Bad Girls. Do you play again?
The band was when I was 15. now I play piano and guitar, sometimes, only for me. I couldn’t allow myself doing concerts. I should always be “the guy from Twilight that wants to be a musician”.

Is it real that you have always to go around with your bodyguards?
“Unfortunetely, yes: it’s totally crazy, I know, but I am getting use at it. It’s only because, when I’m without my bodyguard, I am afraid: it is nearly impossible even come out from a restaurant and get in a car.”

Gossip magazines and internet sites claim that you have a new girlfriend every week, or, alternatively, they say that you are with Kristen Stewart. What is it real?
“Nothing. I am single. Almost everything that came out about my private life is false. I think it happens because, really, there is no much to say about what I’m doing. While I am filming, I live practically reclused in hotel: I come out only to work, and sometimes to go out for dinner. But, if you read the magazines, it seems that I have a frantic high life.”

But, if you wanted, you should have no difficulties in finding a girlfriend.
“It was a lot easier before Twilight. Now it is damned difficult to go out with a girl. Nowadays, if I go out with a girl, immediately I have been photographed with her, then they begin to pursue her on Facebook, they found her email, perhaps they insult her. And her, at the end, will hate me. I don’t want to be hated and I don’t want to live secret relationships: too much effort. So, for now, no girls.”

What does your agent, your press agency, advice you?
“ I have no personal press agency and I want to avoid this. I have a clear idea in my mind: my life must not begin a reality show. In fact, if I see a photographer I go away. I give only a few interviews and I don’t do public appearences if it is not necessary for movies promotion. I don’t want that people get tired of my face.”

How do you see in your future?
“I want to open my production company. What I hate the most in actor’s life is the idea that you have to wait until someone else decides what you have to do. I don’t like this feeling of powerlessness, the total less of control. I always admires Warren Beatty’s career: actor, director, producer.”

Is it true that you will soon filming a movie from Bel Ami, the masterpiece of Guy De Maupassant?
Yes, I’m really happy. It’s one of my favourite novel. It explain what ambition is, anger, desire of success. In some way, Bel Ami is a sort of vampire, of different nature.”

By the way, what is the remark that you receive more often?
Today you seem more pale. They told me one time at a minute. Uff…”
