Robert Pattinson is now kept caged up, like Twihard veal

robert pattinson set 080709

It’s time for our daily update on the now “Beatlemania”-like frenzy surrounding poor little emo Robert Pattinson, who weeps diamond tears for our pop culture sins. Radar is reporting (and they have video to prove it) that Pattz was accosted by hundreds of rabid, screaming, hormonal Twihards while filming in Queens this morning. Poor Pattz. Meanwhile, OK! is reporting that Pattz is so distraught with all of the attention, it’s now affecting his work on Remember Me. Producers and crew have had to set up a “box” with seven-foot high walls – a small, enclosed area where Pattz goes to decompress when he’s on the set. Pattz is now Twihard veal:

Poor Robert Pattinson. Along with the great misfortune of being blessed with an extremely handsome face comes the great burden of dealing with utterly — and perhaps overly — devoted fans.

When R-Pattz first arrived in NYC in early June to start filming Remember Me, he planned to work hard at his craft by day and then seamlessly slink into the city’s nightlife without hassle. But low-key Rob didn’t count on his skyrocketing superstar status, followed at every turn by both fans and photographers. Insiders say the mounting pressures of fame are taking their toll on the sensitive screen vampire.

“It’s crazytown,” a source on the set tells OK!. “There are all these girls with a lot of hormones and a lot of time on their hands.”

Some of them leave their phone numbers on Rob’s car and trailer, like one that read, “I think we’re meant to be together. Call me.”

Still, the polite Brit is trying to be gracious to his fans.

“Rob’s a nice guy — he doesn’t want to disappoint people,” the security detailer says. “He stops to say hello when he can, but he just can’t do it a lot. People bring him gifts, but we can’t take them — we don’t know where they’ve come from.”

In a move to shield their leading man from the cameras and curiosity seekers, the Remember Me crew has stuck Rob in a box, constructing a 7-foot-high enclosure from material screens, where the actor retreats between takes. Not that the fan frenzy dies down when the day’s filming is done.

“I worked on Gossip Girl with guys like Penn Badgely,” says the on-set source. “We’d go out after work and play beer pong. Nobody would bother them. There’s no way Rob can do that. He’d be mobbed.”

Perhaps those who envy his devastating good looks and fame might heed this insider’s five simple — and sad — words to OK!: “I feel bad for him.”

Psycho Twihards somehow got into or near his trailer? They obviously did, if they left him a note. That poor film is going to collapse under the costs of added security. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: I feel terrible for this kid. That being said, some of it (some) is his fault. If he wasn’t so dreamy and sparkly! No, what I mean is that Pattz needs to learn how to give an interview that doesn’t make the rabid Twihards even harder. Like when he told Twist Magazine, “I always get carried away when I’m kissing… I just go nuts!” That’s the kind of quote that brings in another two hundred New York stalkers. Meanwhile, attention all stalkers: you can now leave your notes on Pattz’s veal pen.

  1. I don’t know what the big deal is about Robert Pattinson. Everyone has their own opinion, but in mine I think he only looks good at certain angles, most other times he looks like some kind of real life freak. I thought Twilight was highly overrated. The show True Blood is way better than that movie.

  2. Green Is Good says:

    I’m starting to feel sorry for him. He had NO IDEA this kind of effing crazy was going to erupt.

  3. Annie says:

    Omg.

    He’s cute…but COME ON. This is ridiculous. Poor guy.

  4. grisgris says:

    Ridiculous, they should just shut down filming until school starts back up.

  5. BW says:

    “Producers and crew have had to set up a “box” with seven-foot high walls . . .”

    Yeah, I work in a cubicle, too. What’s the big deal?

  6. Devynn says:

    I generally don’t like him, but this is awful.

    I think he should just issue a statement like, “I’m not Edward, leave me the f*ck alone.”

    Probably wouldn’t do anything, though. Poor guy.

  7. Enonymous says:

    I doubt is that bad for Robert Pattinson, I think most of these stuff are widely exaggerated for whatever reason.

  8. Jag says:

    That’s the risk you take when you’re an actor. You want to make it big, but not so huge that you have to live in a veal cage.

    Tough call for some. Too late for him. And I totally agree that his interviews aren’t helping matters any.

    Seriously: LOL! Poor guy, but no worries, he’ll get pudgy and weird-looking like Leo and no one will squeal anymore in a few years. On the other hand, there’s nothing like tween lust to get you fat record contracts and good movie parts, so he should stiff-upper-lip it like a good Brit and take the opportunities before the flab and weird aging (including that of his fans) hits.

    He doesn’t light my fire, but then I’m not a tween. Every tween generation has their idols, with relative subsequent levels of embarassment.

  10. Cecizahn says:

    The big deal is that everybody looks at him like if he really is Edward Cullen, just becouse he maybe has some similarities. But the reality of this is that he’s only just another guy. HE IS NOT EDWARD CULLEN.

  11. eve says:

    i am absolutely embarrassed for this guy. even grown adult women would scream like young girls like as if they have never seen a man before. i mean, come on!! i’ll admit; i do enjoy reading the books and also enjoy his songs but to depress this poor guy… for his fame… is it really worth it? get some class and self-control, for god’s sake!

  12. Kelly says:

    Poor, poor Robert. I don’t even think he’s that handsome – in fact, he’s downright plain. He probably never thought in a million years that flocks of rabid girls would be accosting him every day. I’ll bet my life that he wishes he could turn back time and say NO to doing Twilight.

  13. jva says:

    Poor Robert!

    what the hell is wrong with the people!!! if they don’t like twilight…then they don’t, if the do.. then they do! no one has to hurt anyone if they dont like the movie!!!

    what if other people also hurt them! huh!?! I completely hate people who hurt other people for no good reason!

    Twihards: Give an absolutely good reason why your hurting him and I wouldn’t feel sorry for him…(okay, maybe not exactly ‘wouldn’t feel sorry’) You’re ruining his life! Don’t you know that what your doing is a sin!!!

    P.S. It’s the actors and actresses’s job to act out their assigned characters! That’s why their called ACTors and ACTresses!!! It’s their job! LEAVE them , HIM, ALONE!!!

    P.S.S. Learn to support twilight! And, at the very least, don’t hurt anyone(robert)!!! It’s absolutely the very least you guys can do!

  14. Ace says:

    I was never a huge Twilight fan, nor a Robert P. fan but this is just ridiculous.

    Poor Robert.

    Where are these kid’s parents? Yeah I know some adults are the same way, but there’s a far, far greater number of kids. Get your kids under some freakin control, people!!
