"The newsworthy nude pictures of sexy male celebrities"

Robert Thomas Pattinson is a sexy young male British actor who started out with backstage experience than then work in the theatre and modelling. He is probably best known for his role as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. You;re going to know him now because he plays Edward Cullen in the film adaption of the Twlight series of books by Stephanie Meyer. It was the Harry Potter movie that lead to Patttinson being nominated British Star of Tomorrow by Times Online. In terms of male modelling, Pattinson has appeared in a campaign for Hackett's autumn collection in 2007, which I guess is quite big.

Did you know?...Robert's scenes in Vanity Fair were delated and only appear in the DVD version.

I recon the Twlight lead is going to cope with fame. I wonder when the nude sex scenes will appear. I see Little Ashes is rated R in the USA so we can hope for at least a good view of his naked rear.

Okay I DO appreciate the fuss being made about this Englishman with the raw natural looks. But let's not forget his Twilight co-stars and fellow hunks Taylor Lautner, Jackson Rathbone, Kellan Lutz and Cam Gigandet. Can't wait to see the movie, having not read the novel I'm not sure how big the roles are for actors Justin Chon, Michael Welch, Edi Gathegi, Billy Burke and Peter Facinelli - they're all pretty hot gay eyecandy.

For the time being, if you want to see Robert naked you have to make do with some shirtless pics from his days as a model or those that show him looking nude in the bath from the BBC's 2006 TV drama, The Haunted Airman (where he plays Toby Jugg). You can see in one of the screencaps that he is being bathed by a black man.

"I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love his every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did, I don't know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him. I think it kind of stuck with me."

"Sometimes I think, 'To hell with acting,' and then I realize I could be working at a shoe shop, acting is much cooler."

"I haven't really decided to be an actor yet! I started doing plays when I was about 15 or 16. I only did it because my dad saw a bunch of pretty girls in a restaurant and he asked them where they came from and they said drama group. He said "Son, that is where you need to go.""

"Someone stole my shoelaces once from my shoes. I still wear them and never put laces in them - they're like my trademark shoes now!"

Is Robert Thomas Pattinson the new Zac Efron? With a career that only really started in 2004 he has rocketed to fame, with upcoming lead roles in films Little Ashes where he plays Salvador Dalí and How To Be, an independent British comedy. Also, expect to see him in the short film The Summerhouse. Robert mentioned something about a drama called Parts Per Billion he is working on opposite Olvia Thrilby in an interview with Variety.

I found out more about the movie Little Ashes. It is a biopic of the infamous artist Salvador Dali (played by Pattinson), focusing on his homosexuality and a gay romance between his character and Federico García Lorca (played by Javier Beltrán). Just found out that the lovely Matthew McNulty is also in the movie (as Luis Buñuel, a brilliant Spanish film director). Robert and Federico have to peform a hardcore sex scene, which should make this movie a massive hit with Pattinson fans. Although it was previewed in 2008 it couldn't find a distributer until Twilight shot Robert to fame.

Pattinson is currently in Vancouver filming the Twiwlight sequal, New Moon. There is also another unreleased independent movie, How To Be, that Robert filmed before Twilight, which is now being released on DVD.
