Reportedly complaining of being hounded by paparazzi and fans wherever he goes ever since he rose to stardom after starring in "Twilight", Robert Pattinson claims fame is "not exactly the worst thing in the world." Attending "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" panel at Comic Con in San Diego on Thursday, July 23, the British actor jokingly said, "I never do anything normal anyway" before then adding, "I pretty much live an almost identical life apart from being recognized."
His co-star Taylor Lautner, nevertheless, had quite different opinion about his newfound fame. He revealed life has been a lot busier now that people recognize him as the Jacob Black depicter in the vampire drama movie and its upcoming sequels. Speaking of his fans, Taylor stated, "They ask me to growl for them and I really don't enjoy doing that. So that's for the fans - please don't ask me to growl. Just wait for the movie."
Contrary to both of them, another "Twilight" star Kristen Stewart apparently enjoyed being surrounded by fans during the event as she claimed, "It's a little overwhelming to have so many people here, but I guess it's a good thing." Taylor was quick to add, "Little nervous, but it's good."
Following the success of "Twilight," Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will all reprise their roles in the highly anticipated "The Twilight Saga's New Moon," which will be hitting the U.S. theaters on November 20. The threesome has also signed in to reprise their roles in "The Twilight Saga's Eclipse", which is slated for June 30, 2010 U.S. release.
