XAVIER Samuel has revealed how he copes with his new-found fame.

The actor — who plays Riley in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse — says he is able to walk around unnoticed by “wearing sunglasses”.

Samuel, 26, also revealed that he often gets mistaken for Weeds star Hunter Parrish.

“Is there some kind of course you can take?” Samuel told Aussie magazine NW when asked about how he deals with being a star.

“It seems like wearing sunglasses works quite well.

“I do get mistaken for Hunter. I’m surprised I don’t get compared to Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords.

“I haven’t been hit on by another celebrity. Well, not that I’m aware — maybe I’m oblivious to those things.”
