Sydney (ANI): Twilight made actor Robert Pattinson famous overnight, but his star status is not coming handy in finding him a date. While talking about the global hysteria surrounding his name, he said: “I just don't take any of it seriously. It's just a job and while it's a job I love, girls scream out for Edward, not Robert. I still can't get a date." He also mentioned that he doesn"t know how to react to the sudden fan following, reports The Sydney Morning Herald.

"To be honest, I still don't really understand what's going on. Like yesterday, I was having lunch down the road. We were in this place for a couple of hours and suddenly there was like 400 people outside on the street. It was just so nuts and it's like that all the time now. When the second one comes out, then I'll see how I am. Mostly I can ignore things to quite a big extent and kind of pretend they''re not really happening," he said.

Pattinson, who is also a good singer, added that he regrets performing two songs in Twilight. "When the first film came out I felt like a complete tosser," he says. He added: "It looked like I was trying to be cool or something, like Eminem. You know, be in a movie and then do a song for the soundtrack. But I didn't look cool, I just looked ridiculous."

He's got the best personality. Good looks get your attention but actual substance retains it. He's got the "IT" factor. He's gorgeous, talented and humble.. you don't find guys like that anymore especially famous ones.

This quote that he can't find a date is from an interview like 6 months ago.

I've heard him say before in the GQ interview he can't get a date/don't want to date because of all the madness surrounding him. He sounds like a cool guy and his fans, me included are fans because of his personality, not exactly Edward...I'm 21 years old and didn't hear about Twilight until it hit the movie house. I didn't become interested in him till I heard his interviews, that accent, and that laugh.. ; )

I wonder why he can't find a date according to this article? maybe it's because he hangs around KS too much...did he ever think about that?

Stay grounded Rob just as you are. All this hype will eventually die down and you can return to a normal or at least a somewhat normal life. As for getting dates you are 23 years old..you have lots of time for that..enjoy your success and take one day at a time.

While the character that you play is the image of every woman's perfect man and their dream that is not what I see. I actually just like your voice and music. No offense, honestly. I do like the Twilight Saga and enjoyed reading it but I don't see anyone as the perfect man, all of them have imperfections that make them, well them! Would love for you to play more music though.
