Robert Pattinson & Eminem - What A Combination

This is an old story doing the rounds again. Rob told the BBC back in 2009 that Eminem was his hero and he also told Oprah about how when he was 14 he wanted to rap.

Now he's telling "Top of The Pops" magazine that there are tapes of him rapping (take it with a pinch of salt)
But if they do exsist I for would would love to see Rob channelling his inner Eminem!

The Rob and Eminem show would be a sell-out for sure.



From Socialite Life

Any Twi-hard knows that Robert Pattinson had dreams as a kid of being a rapper. But it seems that he still records himself freestyling!(Kate: Really? :-))

“You want a secret? OK, how about this – I’ve got a whole collection of tapes of me rapping from when I was 13,” he said. “I wanted to be a rapper so there are hundreds and hundreds of tapes. They’re very amusing,” he told Top Of The Pops magazine… (Kate: Oooh how I'd love to hear these)

“Most of my rhymes were stolen off other people anyway. They were all like, ‘I was raised on these streets’, which was a complete farce because I was actually raised in quite a nice area of London called Barnes. Not very ghetto at all,” he added.

“I was obsessed with it all, though. I even had my own little crew – we called ourselves Big Tub and the Tappy Cats.” (Kate: Emmmmm...riiiiiight)

He adds that even though he’d be scared to perform live on stage, he’d love to duet with his idol Eminem.

Blast from the Past: Robert Pattinson Interviewed by BBC

When I Was 12: Robert Pattinson

At Hogwarts school, Cedric Diggory was a top prefect, but was Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire actor Robert Diggory such a perfect pupil when he was at school? (Gozde: Robert Diggory? Oh Rob you came a LONG way :))

Did you have school dinners or packed lunch?

School dinners. We didn't have packed lunches at my school. I was a lunch monitor as well - I used to take everyone's chips!

What was your most embarrassing moment?

Up until I was 12 my sisters used to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as 'Claudia'! Twelve was a turning point as I moved to a mixed school and then I became cool and discovered hair gel.

How much pocket money did you get?

I started doing a paper round when I was about 10. I started earning £10 a week and then I was obsessed with earning money until I was about 15.

Did you have a nickname?

Patty because my surname is Pattinson.

What was your favourite cartoon?

I quite liked Sharkey and George and then there was a cartoon with rapper MC Hammer in it - Hammertime - I loved that cartoon, it was genius! They don't make cartoons like that anymore.

Who was your hero?

Probably Eminem as I was really into rap - or Jay Kay from Jamiroquai.

Who was your favourite teacher?

Probably my English teacher because she got me into writing instead of just answering the question. I used to hand in homework with 20 pages of nonsense and she'd still mark it. She was a really amazing teacher.

Were you ever bullied?

Someone stole my shoelaces once from my shoes. I still wear them and never put laces in them - they're like my trademark shoes now!

What was your worst ever punishment at school?

I got expelled from my school when I was 12 - I was quite bad!

What did your school report say?

They were always pretty bad - I never ever did my homework. I always turned up for lessons as I liked my teachers but my report said I didn't try very hard.
