INTERVIEW Robert Pattinson On New Moon: 'You Get A Lot Of Nipple Shots!'

The pressure from the �Twi-hards� must be much less now, because they clearly all love you?

Robert Pattinson: �There�s never been any pressure from anywhere I don�t think. Other than right from the very beginning, before the first film came out. I think they like being part of �the club� as well, they kind of mobilise against the people who criticise the whole series. They like it being �their thing�, so they�re very supportive of anything to do with �Twilight�.�

Is your life as �trapped� as the media makes out? Do you constantly hide out in hotel rooms?

RP: �No, it�s funny because in these interviews I never have a tremendous amount of foresight. So I end up describing my day rather than the surrounding months to it. So when we did that interview (for Vanity Fair) I was kind of trapped in my hotel room, but there�s always ways, there�s always places where you can disappear to. It just involves a little more thought, I can�t just wander around will-nilly. It�s such a novelty to me still, I mean if I�m still stuck in hotel rooms in tens years and I haven�t figured out any other way to deal with it other than hiding, it probably would annoy me a little bit. But if you�re just working the whole time you don�t even think about it. I guess I�ll see what it�s really like in the next two or three years.�

You�re very interested in music, is an album on the cards?

RP: �I do miss it. That�s why I haven�t done any gigs or released anything- it does set your standards higher, because you have to eclipse this massive thing! You�ve got to be winning Grammys and stuff before you do another open mic night.�

Is there anything �normal� you miss doing since becoming famous?

RP: �Um� I never really did much in the first place (laughs)! When your working it doesn�t matter what your status is outside of the job, you�re waking up at five thirty and too tired to doing anything when you get home, you just want to go to bed. It doesn�t make any difference really, what�s happening outside of the hotel. I guess I miss open mic nights. I miss driving- I never owned a car in London, I only got a car in LA last summer, so I only ever had three months� driving without having ten cars following you. I�m too scared to drive now!�

Finally, you take your shirt off a lot in this film, how did you get in shape for the topless scenes?

RP: �You get a lot of nipple shots in this movie! I hadn�t worked out at all until I saw Taylor at the beginning of the year, it was quite good for the movie as I felt very inadequate next to him!�
