The Irish Times published this fantastic interview with Rob Pattinson. He talks about the job he got cut from and how that helped his career, living out of a suitcase, keeping the same friends through his crazy schedule, and seeing himself on magazine covers. The author, Donald Clarke, had these complimentary words about Rob:
"Next Big Things come along quite frequently. But I would be astonished if Robert Pattinson did not go on to become one of the most conspicuous film stars of the next decade. Fiendishly charismatic with narrow eyes and hair that obeys its own defiant rules, he combines the looks of an archetypal movie rebel with a striking intelligence that should, all being well, keep him out of the usual Hollywood catastrophes."
A few quotes from Rob:
"I did Jay Leno the other day and he asked how it's been for the last few months," he says. "I had to say that it didn't explode until the previous five days. It was that fast. The other day I went in to buy a bagel in this place I normally go. There were four magazines with me on the cover. One said I was heading for a breakdown. Then I'm on Leno, looking at his iconic face. It is so weird."
"Well, I have been skipping off around the world for ages," he says. "And I have somehow managed to keep the same friends throughout all that time. We all do things where we are leaving home for ages. That's par for the course. But I never have much of a social life anyway."
