More of Rob Pattinson in Rome. I LOVE this first one! And the next one. And the next one. And well… (More Robert Pattinson Goodness!)

Robert Pattinson recently revealed to the LA Times that talking to his fans is always kind of nice, and he hates watching himself on screen - but he’ll make the exception for Twilight.

“I am kind of curious. I guess now the character has become this semi-iconic thing to quite a lot of people,” he says.

Rob didn’t really realize how huge he was going to be was going to be until teenage girls started following him around London. “It’s happened since the day it got said that I was playing the part,”

“It was like a day when it changed. [People went from saying] ‘Are you the guy from ‘Harry Potter’? to ‘It’s Edward!’ It’s really, really strange.”

But Rob doesn’t think he’ll ever become used to being such a celebrity. “It’s just a certain amount of acceptance, I guess. The only kind of strange thing is when you get photographed,” he continued. “When people come up to you, it’s completely understandable, but if someone’s secretly photographing you that’s kind of weird. I don’t think you’d ever get used to that. You can’t really live normally when that’s happening. But people coming up to you is always kind of nice. I don’t do anything during my day, so it’s someone to talk to.“

E!Online wrote up a little article on Rob Pattinson in Little Ashes…

If Twilight weren’t enough reason to love Rob Pattinson, now comes word about him going gay.

The British babe, who has become one of Hollywood’s biggest rising stars because of his major role in the upcoming vampire movie, also has a part in a small, independent flick called Little Ashes as the late surrealist artist Salvador Dalí.

The movie centers on the time Dalí arrived in Madrid as an 18-year-old university student in 1922. It’s in the Spanish capital that Dali first meets writer Federico García Lorca and filmmaker Luis Buñuel.

I’m told Pattinson shares a love scene with Javier Beltran, who plays Lorca, when their characters’ relationship turns romantic in the waters of the seaside town of Cadaqués.

Little Ashes has already played at some European film festivals and is scheduled for release in the states March 27, 2009.

But what we really wanna know is, Is that a wig Pattinson’s wearing, or did he actually find enough product to tame his signature unruly coif?

A recap of the Twilight Scenes shown at the Rome Film Festival:

SCENE 1 - CULLEN’S HOUSE
Edward brings Bella to his house, where he lives with the other members of the Cullen Clan. Bella tries to open the car door, but Edward rushes (as only a vampire can) to the door and opens it for her: a real gentleman.

As soon as she enters the Cullens’ home, Bella notices how tidy it is: bright, tastefully furnished and beautiful. They enter the kitchen and find the Cullens cooking lunch, but just for Bella - vampires don’t eat normal food. Funnily, Bella says she already ate.

Rosalie, the most beautiful but also the most petulant in the whole family, is offended; she argues that by mixing with Bella the Cullens might find themselves in danger. This adds a lot of tension, and Rosalie breaks a dish she has in her hand.

Alice and Jasper are much kinder towards Bella, and Alice tells her that they’ll be best friends. To defuse tension, Edward takes Bella upstairs to his room: the room is very beautiful and tidy, but there is no bed. Bella is taken aback, but Edward explains that he never sleeps. The two of them listen to Debussy’s Clair de lune, they try to dance, but Bella doesn’t know how to dance. Edward makes her climb on his shoulders and takes her out the window, climbing up a tree: she is amazed and incredulous, the camera moves all around the tree following them as they climb. The scene ends with Bella and Edward sitting at the piano: he plays her lullaby; the lighting in this scene is very soft, very romantic.
