ROBERT Pattinson says Kristen Stewart became a “real woman” while filming the third Twilight movie, Eclipse.

The 'Twilight Saga' actor - who stars as vampire Edward Cullen opposite his rumoured girlfriend, who plays Bella Swan in the movie franchise - enjoys seeing how much the 20-year-old screen beauty has changed since filming began and claims they are so close, they no longer need to communicate verbally.
“What I especially like about her is that she’s like me, not dizzy from fans and press attention,” he told the Russian edition of Grazia magazine.
"We understand each other without the words. I can tell Kristen about all my problems. But honestly I don't have to. because she's in same position as I am."
For a minute in the interview Rob begins to win us over, talking about Kristen's sincerity as one of the things he loves best about her: "Kristen really cares about me and I'm very grateful for this. She's the most honest and genuine person I've ever met. She always listens and gives good advice regardless of her own interests."
But then he throws us off, saying that he doesn't think love lasts forever: "The idea seems strange to me," Pattinson said. "It's so boring to spend your whole life with the same person." Does Kristen know your feelings about this?! Nothing like learning it from a foreign magazine interview!
Despite his feelings for Kristen, Robert doesn't believe in eternal love.

Ashley Greene is coming forth to say she's totally inspired by co-star Robert Pattinson. And we have to say, she is making us fall in love with Robert Pattinson even more!


Ashley Greene acted with Robert Pattinson as his onscreen sister in Twilight series where Pattinson was in the character of vampire. Ashley said Pattinson is much grounded man and he has not changed his down to earth attitude a bit in spite of achieving immense success and phenomenon fame. British actor Pattinson stared his full-fledged acting career with a small role in “Harry Potter and Goblet of fire” in 2005. Ashley added Pattinson smelled the success and got global exposure when he got the role of vampire in Twilight series. Acting opposite to Kristen Stewart in Twilight sequels helped Pattinson to attain global stardom within very short span of time.
Ashley tells the U.K's Daily Mail, "Robert Pattinson, who plays my adoptive brother in the Twilight films, has been one of my biggest inspirations. As a person, he's not like anyone I've ever met in Hollywood, and as an actor he's a complete natural." Awww, we think that's incredibly sweet. And since Ashley seems like such an honest, real person, we highly doubt she's just saying these things. We think she really means them!

English actor and model Robert Pattinson, who is the best known for playing Edward Cullen in the film adaptation of Twilight Letterman appearance reveals all.

Let's face it: you probably don't love Edward Cullen because of Edward Cullen. You probably love Edward Cullen because of Robert Pattinson. Pattinson's press tour to promote the Twilight Saga: New Moon has been ruthless, yet he's still charming crowds with his lovable high-energy. His appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman Wednesday night was a prime display of Pattinson preciousness, and we have video here.

Rob talked about dating, his first film ("My entire part was dubbed over by another actor," he laughs), biting, and -- our favorite part -- what it's like for a British actor to speak with an American accent. Watch Robert Pattinson's Letterman interview to see what two American words are the funniest for a Brit to say.

It was a very charming interview. We can also tell that Dave doesn't understand the Twilight craze. That's ok - we do!
