English: Elle girls are Robsessed!
Robert Pattinson as the vampire Edward in the Twilight movie must be the biggest breakthrough of a sex symbol since Brad Pitt threw his bag in the back seat of Thelma and Louise Thunderbird. Women throughout the world is like crazy! And their boyfriends do not understand anything - it's a children's book for cryin out loud! You didn't get this horny in Harry Potter?
To get an explanation, I asked Caf�s sister Journal Elles top three Twilight Fans - editor and coordinator Emma Aspelin, fashion editor Erika Vallin and writer and blogger
Maria Lindholm (who also wrote about the phenomenon in Sunday's
Swedish Dagbladet).
Exactly why is the vampire Edward the sexiest dead 17-year-old in film history? Emma Aspelin: He is inaccessible but passionate. He is loyal, protective, he sees Bella (slightly obsessed, however, when he was persecuting her), he feels ready - which is not surprising since he is a hundred years. Appearance-wise, he is the best combination of good-looking (but not ground) and charming natural.
Erika Vallin: Because he is an Edwardian gentleman in a death packaging? Is that why his name is Edward, anyway? I have not thought of that before.
Maria Lindholm: I think not, in the books, he is quit whiny and has no sense of humor. But the feeling of intense teenage love is sexy. I like teenage angst and high schools in the forest where all carries on dark secrets, living a double life and climbs in through eachothers windows in the night - more than vampires.
How much is the actor Robert Pattinson's profit? Emma Aspelin: 50%.
Erika Vallin: For the film successes basically everything. Had Edward been wrongly casted the film would've flopped. Just look at the disaster filmversion of The Vampire Diaries.
Maria Lindholm: He's insanely beautiful and if you just look at the films, it is entirely thanks to him. But because I interviewed him for ELLE I can say that he definitely is equally stylish, but not in a must-sleep-with- way. If you do not prefer a bit nervous, spotted 23-year olds.
What can real men learn from the vampire Edward? Emma Aspelin: He dances with Bella. Dance more! He looks deeply into her eyes - stare a little more on your girls! He of course makes the whole world of girls crazy with desire when he almost didn't just touch Bella - tease please!
Erika Vallin: The fact that it pays to not eat the one you're in love with? And refusing to grow up, avoiding the sun, sharp jawbone associated with red kiss mouth is a fantastically attractive combination.
Maria Lindholm: Become obsessed with a bit lonely girl with low self-esteem, stalk her and woo her intensely. When she falls in love with you, deny her sex, although she would ask and nag about it. Say you just let if you get married, and ta-da, you are married in a few months.

Caf�Sv: Elletjejerna �r Robsessed!
Robert Pattinson som vampyren Edward i Twilightfilmerna m�ste vara det st�rsta genombrottet av en sexsymbol sedan Brad Pitt kastade ner sin v�ska i baks�tet p� Thelma och Louise Thunderbird. Kvinnor �ver hela v�rlden �r ju som tokiga! Och deras pojkv�nner fattar ingenting � det �r ju en barnboksfigur f�r sjutton. S� h�r k�ta blev ni ju inte p� Harry Potter?
F�r att f� en f�rklaring fr�gade jag Caf�s systerstidning Elles tre st�rsta Twilightfans � redakt�ren och koordinatorn Emma Aspelin, moderedakt�ren Erika Vallin och skribenten och bloggaren Maria Lindholm (som ocks� skrev om fenomenet i s�ndagens Svenska Dagbladet).
Fr�n v�nster: Emma, Erika och Maria
Exakt varf�r �r vampyren Edward den sexigaste d�da 17-�ringen i filmhistorien?
Emma Aspelin: Han �r o�tkomlig men passionerad. Han �r lojal, beskyddande, han ser Bella (n�got besatt dock d� han f�rf�ljer henne), han k�nns f�rdig � vilket inte s� konstigt d� han �r ett par hundra �r. Utseendem�ssigt �r han den b�sta kombinationen av snygg (men inte slipad) och charmigt naturlig.
Erika Vallin: F�r att han �r en edwardiansk gentleman i d�dsf�rpackning? �r det d�rf�r han heter Edward f�rresten? Det har jag inte t�nkt p� f�rut.
Maria Lindholm: Det tycker jag inte, i b�ckerna �r han r�tt gn�llig och har ingen humor. Men k�nslan av intensiv ton�rsf�r�lskelse �r sexig. Jag gillar ton�rsangst och high schools ute i skogen d�r alla b�r p� m�rka hemligheter, lever dubbelliv och kl�ttrar in genom varandras f�nster om natten � mer �n vampyrer.
Hur stor del �r sk�despelaren Robert Pattinsons f�rtj�nst?
Emma Aspelin: 50%.
Erika Vallin: F�r filmframg�ngarna i princip allt. Hade Edward varit felcastad hade filmen floppat. Se bara p� katastroffilmatiseringen av The vampire diaries.
Maria Lindholm: Han �r ju vansinnigt vacker och om man bara ser till filmerna s� �r det helt hans f�rtj�nst. Men eftersom jag intervjuade honom f�r ELLE kan jag s�ga att han absolut �r lika snygg, men inte p� ett m�ste-ligga-med-s�tt. Om man inte f�redrar lite nerv�sa, flackiga 23-�ringar.
Vad kan verkliga m�n l�ra sig av vampyren Edward?
Emma Aspelin: Han dansar med Bella. Dansa mer! Han tittar djupt in i hennes �gon � glo lite mer p� era tjejer! Han g�r ju hela v�rldens tjejer galna av �tr� d� han inte knappt tar i Bella � tease please!
Erika Vallin: Att det l�nar sig att inte �ta upp den man �r k�r i? Och att v�gra v�xa upp, undvika solen, sylvassa k�kben ihop med r�d plutmun �r en fantastiskt tilldragande kombination.
Maria Lindholm: Bli besatt av en lite ensam tjej med d�ligt sj�lvf�rtroende, f�rf�lj henne och uppvakta henne intensivt. N�r hon blivit k�r i dig, neka henne sex, fast�n hon ber och tjatar om det. S�g att du bara sl�pper till om ni gifter er och ta-da, ni �r gifta inom n�gra m�nader.
