Robert Pattinson Explains His Haircut
Shortly after the hit vampire movie Twilight hit the theaters, Robert Pattinson, who plays the part of
Edward Cullen in the saga, cut off his trademark locks - much to the dismay of his adoring fans.
Pattinson, 22, recently explained why he decided to drop the messy hairdo in favor of a much shorter haircut. He told Tiger Beat magazine, "People ambush me and want to touch my hair."
He recalled a moment went it became clear he had to lose his unkempt hairdo. "I was in New York doing a radio interview and there were people sending in messages. 95% percent of the messages were saying 'Take your hat off.' I was just like, 'Okay.' When people say something has become a trademark, you have got to get rid of it. It's the worst."
Robert Pattinson is currently filming the second installation of the Twilight series, New Moon with co-stars Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan, Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black in Vancouver, British Columbia. The film has a scheduled release date of November 20, 2009.
