Robert Pattinson talks about Twilight fame, paparazzi

Friday, September 4, 2009, 10:02 [IST]
Twilight actor Robert Pattinson, who is presently in Vancouver, Canada, to film third Twilight movie Eclipse, has said that his Twilight fame has raised serious concerns about his security and he has become of a “prisoner" of the paparazzi. So Twilight producers have beefed up the security to protect the hunky Brit from their prying lenses.

Robert Pattinson, who is dating his costar Kristen Stewart, recently attended an interview with French version of Premiere magazine. He said that he was desperate to avoid the paparazzi. Because of them he is not able to communicate his fans. He can never let his guard down. “He"s a prisoner of the paparazzi. It"s a nightmare. He almost never leaves the hotel except to go to the set," says sources.

The hot hunk is not able to meet his friends also. “I don"t feel like I"ve changed. 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," Pattinson said to French magazine.

Twilight fame has definitely raised serious concerns about Robert Pattinson's security. “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," he said.

The Hollywood hunk further said, “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. Robert added,“I haven"t found one place in the world yet where I could disappear. 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."

YOu know what, the paparazzi needs to leave you alone. You need to live your personal life and live the way you used to before Twilight. PAPARZZI!! LEAVE ROBBIE ALONE!!

Hope you gain strength from your family and friends and stay grounded, true to yourself. Don't get lost in all the frenzie that surrounds you. Thanks for the fabulous portrail of Edward Cullen, not being a teen fan however having read all of Stephenie's novals I can thank you for giving Edward a great voice.

I second all your points Leslie, and add as fans of their craft, we would hate to see them pay with the loss of their personal everday freedom.

I would recommend small eastern european countries. Whenever I need to get away for a week or two I just hang out in Macedonia or Kosova and I barely ever get hassled for autographs or photos.

I hope everyone is happy that Rob has to become a recluse now - idiots! The only other person in the world who he can share his situation with & can support him is Kristen. Not believing there is a real romance, NO real proof, but he needs some companionship when he leaves the confines of his hotel & she's the natural choice to accompany him. He doesn't want to make his other friends uncomfortable or other cast members even. Kristen seems to be his support & comfort zone, when they have to avoid the paps together.

Yes I agree with Mandi, He needs to be able to go out with friends and family and not worry about who is going to be trying to sneak the next picture or video of him. He is a actor and with that it does come with some privacy issues. But he is a Human being first and foremost. SO Let the poor Man be. He is going to be driven to be a hermit on some deserted Isle Just to get a moments peace.

Everyone has a right to privacy, and so should he, people just need to leave him alone!!! Put yourself in his shoes and think about how you would feel if you had people following you everywhere constantly taking photos,and video taping you. I'll say this again... LEAVE HIM ALONE AND GIVE HIM SOME ROOM TO BREATHE!!!!!!!!!!!!

"One day your story will be told. One of the lucky ones who made his name. One day they'll say that you have changed. Though they're the ones to stop and stare..." It's the life you chose Rob. Get use to it if you're not already. Enjoy the privileges. Dorlicita empathizes.
