Robert Pattinson admits his superstar status can be pain — because he can never let his guard down.

The British actor — who shot to fame in the Twilight movie franchise — says he has to be “super vigilant” in case someone is filming him or recording what he’s saying.

“I don’t feel like I’ve changed,” Pattinson, 23, told a French magazine. “The most embarrassing is when friends ask you to meet up with them and you have to tell them, ‘Sorry I can’t go to that place’ because you’re fully aware photographers will be waiting for you there.

“I feel like such weasel when things like that happen, like the world has to revolve around me. I have to look over my shoulder all the time, be super vigilant because at any moment, someone could be filming or recording what I’m saying.

“It makes me feel like working non-stop: at least, on sets, the level of security gives me a bit of privacy. It’s a relief.”

“I haven’t found one place in the world yet where I could disappear,” he added. “Even the most remote places I can imagine someone will ask me for a picture with them or an autograph. Honestly, I didn’t think that I would be recognized so easily.”
