Star Inc.(Quebec) February Issue






Pattinson Online has posted these scans and the translation of the Q&A. I am posting some of it here and you can read the whole interview at their site HERE. It's a great interview!


SI: Many of your fans see your character in you. Tell us, who is the real Robert Pattinson?
RP: I’m a lot more boring and less fascinating than Edward, that’s for sure. I love to read and my passion is music. When I’m not shooting, I perform in little pubs where nobody knows who I am. My ideal would be to be like Van Morrison in his beginnings. I’m obsessed with his first albums.

SI: Do you consider yourself like the good looking guy that everyone is talking about?
RP: Not at all! I stopped auditioning for months because I was not self-confident. When I read Twilight, I didn’t see me at all as Edward. We describe him as someone with a sublime body, while I’m… Let’s just say that I don’t have «chocolate bar» abs! And I could not think about spending four hours a day in a gym. I was one of the last to pass the audition and I didn’t believe in it at all.
SI: People say that you’re hiding your girlfriend. Is that true?
RP: I don’t want to get exposed, because I’m not looking for celebrity. At 16 I began to think about what I wanted to do with my life. To be on covers of magazines was not something on my list.
SI: How do you succeed in not succumbing to some of your charming fans? You have millions of them now…
RP: It’s weird because the girls who recognize me are 12 or 35 years old. I think Twilight fans are pretty much preteens and there mothers. I didn’t meet a girl of my age yet who told me she loved my part as Edward. It helps to keep my feet on the ground.
SI: American press presents you as Orlando Bloom’s successor, the new British guy who gets the teenagers attention. What do you think about that?
RP: It’s strange, because I don’t see myself as a star, not for a second. I have a specific idea of the career I want to have and I promised myself that I will not take part in a movie, without interests, only for the money. Keep this interview; someday you’ll be able to tease me when I accept a part in a trashy movie just to get a big check! (laughs)
SI: How did you plan the future when you were 17 years old, Edward’s age in Twilight?
RP: I used to have a diary in which I was writing all my thoughts. I used it from the age of 15 until I was 20. It was a book in which I would write scenarios, ideas, as well as memories. Maybe I should burn it now…(Gozde's note: Yep, you should burn it or put it in a safe guarded by the Volturi 'cause if anyone gets their hands on it it will be all over the place within seconds :)
SI: So this diary describes also your love stories?
RP: Yes. I fell in love only two times in my life. I had a great love story for 3 years.
SI: Your messy hair started a new fashion… Was it your idea?
RP: It’s the funniest thing that ever happened to me! I never thought that look would be such a big deal! I wanted my hair to be like..when I jump out of bed. (laughter) I hate to sit for an hour to get my hair and my makeup done. So I proposed to shoot without makeup and to keep my hair as it looks when I wake up. I thought it was perfect to get into the skin of a vampire.
SI: And today?
RP: It’s completely insane! A hairdresser is following me everywhere, and he makes sure that my hair has this messy look before every public appearance. I wanted something simple, but I think I blew it!
SI: What’s coming in 2009?
RP: My only wish for 2009 is to shave my head, but I don’t think the Twilight producers would agree to it! (laughs)

Hmmm...I just love how he scoots around the whole girlfriend question...hmmm...oh well, I suppose he is allowed one thing to himself...

Laura said...

I know, Melissa! He totally dodged the question!! Damn, I suppose that means he DOES have a girlfriend. Better not be Nikki!!

Melissa said...

Damnit, Laura! It probably IS!!! CRAP!!!! LOL

But seriously, how could he NOT have one with all his hotness?? Lucky girl whoever she is....

Laura said...

I really shouldn't have read this at work. I'm so pissed about the girlfriend thing, I'm taking it out on my students! I'm being a little bitchy to them...I think I'll go look at that hot pic from last night to lift my spirits! lol

did anyone else note the comment about how he'd been in love twice? didn't he say before he never had? oh rob...

Lisa Serrano said...

Well he got his wish for 2009.

The producers probably were not pleased..Good for him!

I really liked this interview, too. I read the comments already posted and have to agree about the avoidance of the girlfriend question - sneaky! And, Laura, my students are waiting for me to finish this - It's time to teach! LOL Rob is not good for working! ;)

Laura said...

Absolutely, Rae! My brain cannot process all of his hotness and teach at the same time!! lol
