ROBERT Pattinson used to doubt his acting abilities.
The Hunky British star — who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight movie franchise — says he became an actor as a result of his dad’s influence and that of the Barnes Theatre Company.
“Dad was in a restaurant and saw a bunch of pretty girls and decided to go up and ask where they’d been,” Pattinson said. “They said they went to this drama club, so he said we’d better go down too!
“I said to my manager, ‘I can’t do that thing where someone comes up behind you and you look scared’. And he said, ‘What? Acting?’. And I was like, ‘That’s it! I can’t do that!’.”
R-Patz, 23, also discussed the effect he has on his legions of female fans. “All the screaming is so bizarre. It’s a scream of wanting, but I have absolutely no idea what they want. How can I satisfy that?” he said.
“When there are girls standing there trembling and crying, that’s a very strange thing to be a part of. Girls scream for Edward, not Robert. I still can’t get a date!”
“Edward really liked Bella, felt a connection, but held back. I do it so many times too. Whenever I like someone subconsciously I think, ‘Don’t like me. I’m a d**k’. I’m worried for their sake. Especially if they’re not famous. It’s weird I have to think about that.”
