This weeks Eye Candy is the ever so famous, London bred star Robert Pattinson. I like the guy, I really do. I think he was a good Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire and a great Edward Cullen in Twilight. Sure, my Edward takes a completely different form but then so does the entire Twilight world, but he did a pretty good portrayal of ol' Ed despite the fact that his american accent seemed kinda odd in some scenes. I like the guy because he seems totally down to earth, he doesnt seem to know why people like him and doesnt think he's as hot as he really is. Besides his hair is kinda cool and he makes a total prat of himself in most interviews - which I love.
Unlike stupid Taylor Lautner (Jacob Black), he hasnt let the level of fame go to his head which is pretty surprising given the fact that he's probably the most wanted actor right now.
He starred in The Ring of Nibelungs as Giselher where he had a pretty awful accent which makes me laugh every time I watch it. After, he stared in Harry Potter 4 as Prefect and Hogwarts Champion, Cedric Diggory. He was semi well known from the Harry Potter franchise but it was only when he stared in Twilight that he became a world wide name. Besides Twilight he's been in "The Badmothers Handbook" as Daniel Gale which is just hilarious, he's the most the adorable geek I've ever seen. He was Toby Jugg in The Haunted Airman, Art in How to Be (which is one of my favourite films), Salvador Dali in Little Ashes and is currently filming "Remember Me" in New York where he will be playing Tyler Roth.
Rob Pattinson (or Spunk Ransom as he nicknamed himself) is pretty much the IT boy of this generation and unlike other "pretty" boys in the industry he really does seem to love what he does and not be in it for the fame. Rob should be around for a long time, or at least I hope he will be, plus he's a cracking good singer!
"That's the worst thing, I don't really care if people say I'm a bad actor, I can like work on that, but if they just say that he's ugly that's just like 'oh...really?'"
