Co-star calls Robert Pattinson “a little awkward”

By Alexandra Heilbron on May 11, 2009 | 11 Comments


Robert PattinsonRobert Pattinson‘s Twilight co-star Ashley Greene has confirmed that he had a crush on Kristen Stewart. Rumors continue to circulate that there is a romantic connection between Pattinson and Stewart, despite the fact that the actress has a boyfriend. Green doesn’t deny there is chemistry between the Twilight stars, raising speculation on whether Pattinson’s feelings for Stewart had anything to do with his decision to remain single. Greene told OK! magazine, “I think he’s loving being single. He’s pretty much one of the most eligible bachelors out there right now… So if he was sad before [about Kristen], I think that he’s all right now.” She added that he occasionally has trouble with his heartthrob status, which could also be contributing to his unwillingness to be in a relationship. She said, “Rob’s always like, ‘I don’t belong here, what’s going on?’ He’s not the most sociable… He’s not one of those people who can go and talk to anyone. He’s kind of a hermit and a little awkward. He got thrust into this limelight, but he’s dealing with it. I think it’d be kind of difficult for anyone.” Since this interview took place, Pattinson and Stewart were spotted at a charity concert together in Vancouver, gazing warmly at each other. ~Meryl H.

    I think its because of Robert’s awkwardness that people like him, being unique is hot!

    kristen is stupid for not seeing how much better off she’d be with robert

    Melissa, how do you know that, just because of his looks and what the tabloids say? She might be better off without him. Maybe he has phobia to committment, would she be better off with him then? Just because they are hot onscreen doesn’t mean they would be offscreen. They are just regular people, they were born naked too.

    well, he may not be the “most eligible bachelors out there” now that mr adam lambert is so well known. i could understand young people being “a little awkward” when they first become major stars. i am not gonna lie, i kinda think hes hot.
