He’s shot to worldwide fame thanks to his role as Edward Cullen, and Robert Pattinson says he owes it all to having a crush on Kristen Stewart.
The “New Moon” stud confessed that the driving force behind his decision to audition for “Twilight” was the fact that Stewart had been cast as Bella Swan.
“I read the script and I barely knew that they were books too. The only reason I went to the audition was to see Kristen, because I’d just seen Into The Wild. Of course I had a crush on her but we are just very good friends.”
Still denying their romance, Rob insists he’s single and looking. “I am young, free and single. I like people being forward. Gosh, I don’t know. I like strong people, chiseled abs… I take what I can get.”
