Robert Pattinson’s Career Change

Robert Pattinson, who stars in the independent film How to Be, once thought about quitting acting for music, according to director Oliver Irving.

"He was thinking about giving up acting and maybe doing music solely when this role [in How To Be] came along," Irving explained to People.

How to Be was filmed before Twilight and Harry Potter. The actor wasn’t landing the roles that he wanted, and began looking for more challenging roles.

For How to Be, the actor had to learn to play the guitar, harmonica, and had to refrain from cutting his hair.

Oliver Irving is glad that Pattinson’s career has come so far. "He’s very down to earth and unpretentious. I think that’s probably what makes him appealing," he said.

Robert Pattinson’s Gripes About Fame

Actor Robert Pattinson, who has been under the magnifying glass of the hollywood spotlight since the release of the film Twilight, has a bone to pick about being a big celeb, and thinks that he would be subjecting future girlfriends to the media madness.

Pattinson says that his fame has come at a price. The constant attention paid to his private life has made him paranoid.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, the 22-year-old actor was asked about his next girlfriend, to which he responded, "I’m always really worried about ruining their (girlfriends) lives."

He added, "Especially with people that aren’t famous. It’s such a massive change. I’m kind of a paranoid wreck. It’s getting photographed. You have people who analyse your facial expressions to the tiniest degree. So you’re just trying to avoid getting photographed. You’re like, ‘Jesus, you can’t win.’"

Robert Pattinson Admits He’s a Net Junkie

The Twilight vampire is addicted to the Web according to what he says.

In an interview with Film.com, Robert Pattinson, 22, admitted that he likes to see what’s written about him and could spend hours doing just that.

Moreover, the star confessed that his time spent in front of the computer is not very productive. He said, "(The Internet) feeds the worst part of your soul. When you have nothing to do and you go on, when you’re too tired to read a book. I’ll read the news, you go on to the New York Times; you get bored and go on IMDb. Then you realize how pathetic you are. I have to delete my history (of visited websites).
