Robert Pattinson

the improper translated some key excerpts from the "Le Samedi" interview

In a new interview with Quebec’s Le Samedi magazine, Pattinson, 22, discusses what drew him to the Edward Cullen character, what he finds appealing in the opposite sex and his enduring love of music.
[Editor's note: Samedi doesn't have a website, so we were unable to link to the interview, which is in French; we have translated some key excerpts and pasted a partial scan below.]
Pattinson, who sounds like a bit of a contrarian, says he was drawn to Edward because of the brooding vampire’s fringe status. “Outsiders are always seductive, or at least fascinating,” he says. “You can see why they’re alone and can’t integrate themselves into groups.”

Ironically, Twi–which began as a teen cult phenomenon–has mushroomed into full-blown mainstream popularity. So far, the tiny indie flick has grossed an astonishing $284 million worldwide since its Nov. 21 U.S. release. A sequel, New Moon (2009), will begin shooting in March, and will be filmed back-to-back with Eclipse (2010), the third installment in the best-selling Twilight book series.
As we previously reported, the self-deprecating Pattinson was initially intimidated by the idea of playing Edward, who is described as unspeakably beautiful–an Adonis.
“I really liked Edward’s demeanor and personality but I asked myself if I was indeed the right actor for the role,” Rob recounts. “He is described as being a rare beauty, and that’s not what I see in my mirror every morning.”
As for his love life, Pattinson says he is unattached at the moment. “Je suis toujours célibataire,” he says. [I'm still single]. But what does he find attractive in women? “Like everyone else, I’m attracted to girls who have a head on their shoulders. The other day I was watching 30 Rock and I was charmed by the quirky Tina Fey,” says Rob. “I have rarely seen a woman so sexy.”
But Rob has other celebrity crushes as well. “I’m not immune to the sex appeal of the three Jessicas (Simpson, Alba and Biel). And I’m really fascinated by the grace and beauty of Natalie Portman.
Pattinson also says he’s attracted to all types of women. “Age matters little to me, and as I said before, I don’t have a specific type,” he says.
But Pattinson’s true love is music. When asked what career path he would’ve chosen had he not become an actor, Rob is unequivocal in his reply. “I would’ve become a pianist,” he says. “I play three instruments, I sing and I write songs.”
Indeed, Pattinson, who wrote two songs on the Twi soundtrack, is intoxicated by music. “I always say that if acting is my first love, music would’ve been my Plan B for becoming famous,” he says. “That may sound a bit pretentious, but it’s true. Music occupies a very important place in my life. I couldn’t live without music.”
