“YOUR FACE IS FAMILIAR TO ME” Here’s the icing on the cake of my 4 days in Los Angeles. A suite in Beverly Hills Hotel, dinner at celebs restaurants, and all these things that makes most of your friends jealous. But: who cares about all that when you have Robert Pattinson in front of you telling you “Haven’t we met somewhere already?”

In fact, we met some years ago, at the Twilight premiere at the Rome Film Festival in Rome. Even though the books were being sold like candies, nobody expected such a success. Maybe at that time he didn’t know that he was super famous already, his eyes like those of a deer caught in car headlights, a nervous Kristen Stewart who couldn’t stop shaking her leg, facing hormonal, hyperventilating girls & hordes of journalists. If he really remembers me in all that chaos, I’ll propose him for admission to MENSA (association of people who have a intellectual quotient very high). He simply tells me he just can’t forget those events anymore.

AT THAT TIME HE DRESSED CASUALLY. Now that he’s the new face of Dior Homme fragrance, do you pay more attention to what you wear? He smiles in an all teeth smile and points at the baseball cap worn backwards, a dark shirt with short sleeves on a grey T-shirt and black jeans. “I don’t think so” he laughs “I don’t think too much about what I wear. I buy things randomly. I could wear same things for days. Those rompers for babies as well, with those snap-button closure would be ok”.  [Maria:  LOL Rob in a onesie – the mind boggles]

Glamour Italy’s interview with Rob both audio and print:

 

Interview:

“It’s Robert Pattinson speaking, the former vampire who bewitches even without biting. That’s what happens in the Dior Homme cologne adv. That’s what happens one day in Los Angeles, where we met and interviewed him for the October issue of Glamour Italy…

Do you mind if I chew a piece of gum during the interview?». First info: Robert Pattinson is a polite Hollywood star. Twilight, the vampire saga that made him famous, yielded him a popularity second only to the post-Titanic “DiCaprio-mania”. However, Robert remained a 27 year old down-to-earth guy who asks for permission.

And who quickly changes his mind: «Actually, I’m going to spit it: this is disgusting!». He waits for a hint of approval, then rips the corner of a newspaper, wraps in the “gross piece of gum”, and smiles, while hiding the “misdeed” with his hands. Second info: Rob, as his friends call him, with his flipped back baseball cap and his three days’ stubble , is also funny.

“Do you want to try an Italian one?”, I ask him. «Really? Thank you!». He delicately takes the package. While opening it, with his half British half American accent, he reads: “Denti bianchi, sorriso protetto (i.e.: white teeth, protected smile)”. He hasn’t got a single word, but looks enthusiastic. He tries one, then reclines his head, so all that one can see is his thick eyebrows, and, right below, two blue slits. He whispers: “Yours are much better”.

Third info: Pattinson could win anyone over with just one look.

Or even one smile: it happens in the adv for the Dior Homme cologne, of which he recently became spokesperson, taking over Jude Law’s role. The commercial begins and, for the first 20 seconds, Robert is serious, thoughtful, intense. Then Camille Rowe, his partner on set, pretends to kiss him, while in fact attempts to bite his lips. That comes unexpected: he smiles, and the public melts. Every woman, no matter her age, secretly wishes to be in the shoes of the only creature who is able to light up the handsome, gloomy guy.

This interview has already been featured in Elle France which we posted with a translation, but now we have it again in Elle South Africa with the interview in English 🙂

Can never get enough of these beautiful pics

Robert Pattinson, the impatient English

He is the star of the Twilight saga. He swears only by Jean -Luc Godard. He is an idol who is tracked. He likes nothing better than a party with friends. He is cheerful. And pessimistic. Audacious And anxious. To portray Robert Pattinson, we have to highlight his paradoxes. And to understand why this 27 year old boy, who was perhaps not prepared to deal with a cannibal glory, may give a particular meaning to the word “freedom.” Some are more free than others, not him, forced into a seclusion that he wants to shatter.

One year after the end of the Twilight saga, which propelled him into the private circle of overpaid actors in Hollywood, the impatient English wants to exist differently than in the translucent skin of a romantic vampire who electrify girls. To reinvent himself, this ultrasensitive man based himself on his instinct, his requirement and his culture from old Europe.The Beverly Hills Hotel, the legendary hotel of Los Angeles where Marilyn Monroe loved Yves Montand, we meet him in an overprotected suite, away from hysteric fans and inquisitive cameras. The air is frenetic. The star is in the stronghold. Robert Pattinson doesn’t support a movie this time, but a new role : he is the new ambassador of the fragrance Dior Homme, after Jude Law. A superb prize of war for the French house, since Pattinson is the young man of the moment, intact image and worldwide aura. He embodies a more boyish and rock’n’roll character: it’s the very arty Nan Goldin who signed the clichés of the campaign.

With his low voice, weighing each syllable, the actor talks about his need to make a 180 degree turn : “When you’re hit by a phenomenon like Twilight, it’s difficult to imagine to exist after this, in the public mind. I really thought i’ll never get out … Such success can become a golden prison. I realize i’m at an important stage in my life. All the choices I make today will define my future forever. The pressure is huge, I’m always asking myself : have you make the right choice? At the same time, I don’t want that fear wins.”

Robert Pattinson has begun his transformation in Cosmopolis, by David Cronenberg, last year. With this role of overpowered trader who observes the end of capitalism from his limousine, he was promoted to another register. Something serious, at the risk of destabilize his 12 years old fans : ” Cosmopolis is the movie of my life. Before, I didn’t consider myself as an actor, even though I had a ten years career behind me. I always felt like an usurper. I doubt very much. David Cronenberg has given me self-confidence, he changed the way I play and think about this job.”

The film, shown at Cannes, is praised by critics and gives him some credibility. Until then, his dramatic efforts had gone rather unnoticed. The curse of handsome people? “Americans don’t really know Cannes or do not care, but for an Englishman like me, this is an important festival. When i was little, I was dreaming watching the images of the event and i collected the award-winning DVD movies. At Cannes, everything finally seemed to get straight, because I was recognized by my peers.”

Since then, “Rob” seeks to get free of the links that hamper safe paths. He now reveals his artistic nature with bolder choices. This informed cinephile, who counts Jacques Audiard among his favorite directors, just filmed five radically different films, some arthouse cinema and smart blockbuster. There is The Rover, a futuristic western by the young Australian filmmaker David Michôd (Animal Kingdom). Then a biopic about the explorer Gertrude Bell, Queen of the Desert, in which he plays Lawrence of Arabia. We will see him too in Hold On To Me, a drama with Carey Mulligan and Mission: Blacklist, a psychological thriller by Eric Maddox.

The pressure is huge

But the project that makes him really glad, the one that celebrates his reunion with his mentor, David Cronenberg, he has just finished filming Maps to the Stars, with Viggo Mortensen (now of course it’s John Cusack – Michelle) and Julianne Moore. “I happened to work with directors who forgot the idea of ​​their project on the way. With David, we can be sure that at the end there will be a film and a content, which is rare . After a forty-year career, he continues to worry about what he does with the same requirement as when he started. I would like to be like him later.”
