Robert Pattinson is the Leonardo DiCaprio of the twenty first century, post-Titanic (if you are old enough to know). Being that Mr. DiCaprio was considered and STILL IS considered a heartthrob, there was immense pressure on his career. He was recently asked in an interview if there was any advice he would give to the young Robert Pattinson.
Given that DiCaprio managed to get his acting career back on track after Titanic by taking two years off so the teen screams could die down, has he any advice for Twilight star Robert Pattinson, suffering the same kind of deafening and possibly career-crippling crazy love right now?
“I don’t have any advice for him,” offers DiCaprio, “other than, continue to work as hard as you possibly can when you get the opportunities to do other films.
“When you’re a working actor who gets to choose your own material, then you’ve hit the lottery. Now it’s time to maintain that — that’s it. You work as hard as you possibly can on every opportunity that you get. But he knows that — I have no advice to give him. I’m sure he knows that …”
This article is right up my alley! My two favorite things: Twilight and fashion. The EW has an Interview with Eclipse Costume Designer Tish Monaghan, as as always- she kept the style simple yet suave.
• Even at the film’s premiere, people squealed when Taylor Lautner turned around in that black T-shirt.
“It was almost embarrassing. I felt so bad for him,” Monaghan says, with a laugh. “They were screaming and going ‘Wooooo!’” As she’d done on New Moon, her M.O. was to put him in smaller size Gap or Banana Republic T-shirts to emphasize his biceps, tightening the tees around the arm holes and taking them in down the side. (Pattinson wore Gap T-shirts, exclusively, she adds. “They were what fit him best. They had the best colors. So that’s what he ended up wearing, even when Edward takes Bella up to the tent. It may strike people as odd, but he doesn’t feel temperature, so that’s why we only put him in a shirt, and Bella’s all bundled up, and Jacob, of course, is running around shirtless.”
Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson shock fans at a local IMAX theatre in Los Angeles.
“I hope you like the movie because otherwise this’d be really embarrassing. Yeah, thanks for making sort of such a special opening weekend for us,” Robert Pattinson continued.
“You guys all like it, though?” he asked the crowds, who of course broke out in screams.
This article/video is pretty funny about Rob and Taylor on the set of Eclipse.
While talking to Access Hollywood,Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner discussed the scenes where the two had to fight (for Bella, played by Kristen Stewart) but when the cameras stopped rolling, the two friends were very chummy with each other.
The tension between the two characters didn’t affect the actors. Taylor admits that hating Edward is hard because of Robert, who’s a great guy. “One of the most challenging things about filming this was having to hate Edward because I’m looking at Rob.”
What did Rob say about Taylor? When asked about laughing between takes he added “Especially when he’s wearing his little spandex outfit. It’s great when he goes “If you come near her again…” and then you just slap him on the ass.”
In the latest Robert Pattinson interview, the Swedish magazine clears up some of Rob’s quotes from the past and dicusses ‘Remember Me’ .
In “Remember me”, Robert Pattinson, 23, has Swedish Lena Olin as his mother, Pierce Brosnan as his father and the “Lost”-actress Emelie de Ravin as his girlfriend. With those surrounding him and being named as our new James Dean, he is obviously this weeks Kex!
Last time we met you said you hadn’t been affected by your fame since you were spending most of your time making movies. Has that changed or are you still able to go to the pub with your friends and have a beer?
- Working in England is the opposite of working in the States. When I was having dinner at a London pub the other day, a waitress came up to me and said how much I looked like the guy from “Twilight”. She said, “You could be his brother”.
- Other who recognize me in London are almost a little embarrassed and don’t even want to look at me.
How are your family members handling it?
- Mom is still calling every day asking about all the gossip. My sisters have no problems, except from getting their Facebook accounts hacked from time to time.
What do you tell your mom?
- I hate having to promote myself to my family. I don’t want people I know to read things about me since they might get the wrong impression.
You are an executive producer for this movie. What did that mean?
- I was asked about the casting. But I had no oppositions. I thought Emelie de Ravin was the best by far out of those who read for the part.
You got to have a Swedish mother in the movie.
- Lena, yeah. What an amazing actress she is. I liked to study her when she was working. It was shame that we didn’t have more scenes together.
What was your first love like?
- Romantic and beautiful. But then it got worse. She broke up with me (laughs) and there isn’t much more to say about that.
How old were you?
- I was 19 or 20.
In an interview recently you said that you’re closest to your dog. What did you mean by that?
- I was kind of joking when I said that. But she was special and had been a family member for many years when she passed away last year. She was as much of a sister as anyone else.
Do you have a new dog now?
- No.
Are you planning on getting one?
- I don’t think so.
He makes a nervous laugh and lowers his eyes.
- I get so emotional by this.
Which would you choose – break someone’s heart, or getting your heart broken?
- Simple – even though I shouldn’t say it: break someone’s heart.
- It takes so long for my heart to heal. Or maybe it gets broken too often. Sometimes it feels like I have my heart broken every day.
