Robert Pattinson Stinks, Doesn’t Like Showers

Source on the set of “New Moon” say Robert Pattinson smells really bad and refuses to take a shower

Robert Pattinson, the 22-year-old British actor who caught the attention of the entire media with both his good acting and his impressive good looks, is a very dirty man. For some reason unbeknown to anyone, the actor does not like showers, therefore rarely takes one. While this would make for a very funny story, it is driving his “New Moon” co-stars mad because he stinks most of the time, E! Online informs.

The e-zine has spoken to people who work closely with the actor on the set of the upcoming vampire film, and they all tell the same story: spending time in Pattinson’s company is not really an honor, as most of us would be tempted to believe, but a true ordeal. Reportedly, he rarely washes, which makes it so that people can sense him even when he’s not there – which is only a delicate way of saying that he stinks to high heaven.

“He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy.” an unnamed source, working with Pattinson in Vancouver on the set of “New Moon,” tells the aforementioned publication. Another one agrees in that, indeed, spending time with the much-mediated actor is tough because of his refusal to bathe. “He completely reeks.” the other spy explains, for full visual.

Of course, if true, Pattinson would not be the only “hunk” for whom, they say, shower is a foreign notion. Before him, the same rumors circulated in the media about the likes of Brad Pitt and Keanu Reeves, both of them having been granted the title of hottest man of the year by several women’s magazines all around the world. No relation between the level of hotness of one star and their affinity for water and washing products has yet been established.

Speaking of Pattinson and his good looks, just recently, the actor admitted to being very shy and somehow overwhelmed by the attention he’s been receiving from the media and fans solely on this account. “Pattinson says he’s always been hypersensitive about being looked at, that when he was a kid and somebody’d make eye contact with him on the bus or something, he’d freak out. He’s one of those tall people who hunch, trying to disappear.” GQ magazine wrote about Pattinson after interviewing him.

I think people need to get a life. He is such a sweet guy. He is smart and sensitive stop Complaining about him. There are not a lot of guys out there who are as humble as Robert. He seems to really be trying and I think we need to let him do his work. He is a brilliant actor and he seems like a very interesting person who I would love to get to know (Not Edward…. Robert himself). Keep doing what you are Rob!! Don’t let anyone get you down. You said yourself… People what to tear you down as fast as you rise up.
I would LOVE to have the change to talk to you ROB. I have some QUESTIONS :-)

Lol. I like how you're talking about him like you know him personally. I sincerely doubt you've ever seen him in person. Assumptions are so funny. You must be a fangirl.

You know, since he doesn't like all the attention, maybe he's trying to turn everbody off so they'll leave him alone. He even talked about cutting his hair because he hates that it's become his "trademark." Reguardless, we all have our issues and I can't even imagine what it must feel like always being looked at under a microscope. A big price to pay just to do what you love. Anyway, stink on Rob! You've earned it. You rock!

Do u know what so stupid right EVERYONE has in there head your like so dirty if ya dont have a shower every day BUT the FACTS are u dont need one everyday REALLy all your doing to your body by having a shower everyday is drying out your skin and ageing you quicker.....
ITS so much better to have your own body oils on your skin protecting yourself naturally ....then some crap money making product thats really dosent do anything to start with........
people are really forgetting about what our own body can really do, i can honestly say i dont have showers everyday because i dont need to.... how dirty really can i get its like saying we live in a DIRTY world and thats not ture....the world is a natural ....
im sorry for being honest but im so tired of people thinking about self cleaning is all about how much u wash yourself....thats crazy....
its so funny how people think its strage if u dont wash yourself everyone and well lets face it back years ago the whole family had a bath in the same bath water they lived and some people didnt even get to have showers....
sorry now im like babbling on ....
just wanted to get it out there.......
thanks for reading....

Guys, get a life!! You're ruining a most talented actor and a gorgeous person!! If he really stinks, it's something that is easily fixed; instead of spreading rumors, the ppl on the set could pretty tell him to wash more regularly and explain the reasons!!

We're not in high-school!!

Rob, I'm in love with you even if you reek to death!!!!

Poor Rob. That's all they can come up with to talk badly about him! He has joked about his hygiene for a LONG time! They are acting like they came up with this all on their own! He talks about it all the time..When you're sweet, not self absorbed and you are oblivious that millions of girls scream over you because you're hot then you 'stink'

His mum: "Young man, you need a shower before going off to school!! People will think you're an orphaned hobo."
Robert: "Mum, I'm okay, mum. I'll be fine, mum."
