Sunday Mercury has two new articles, with short interviews, about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Here is an excerpt from Kristen’s interview:

The 18-year-old Twilight star has found herself catapulted to instant fame following the success of the film in the States, with her face on everything from badges to bags and posters.

But she said: “I’m pretty low-profile. I can go out I don’t ever get recognised by anybody.”

She added she wasn’t bothered about the attention surrounding the film.

“It’s fine,” she said. “On one hand you have to be wary now who wants to work with you, maybe you have a little bit more pull, now you’re going get your movie made with me. But I only want to work with people that really inspire me and just have the right artistic thing going.”

Twilight tells the story of Kristen’s character Bella Swan, who falls for vampire Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson.

But Kristen feels she is different to her character.

“The point of her is she’s like the generally relatable character, you project yourself on to her,” she said. “I guess if I was to put myself into this position it might be a little bit different but she’s very sure about everything she feels and thinks.

And here is an excerpt from Rob’s interview:

“It’s strange. I’ve even had people wanting to pay for autographs, which is crazy. You keep thinking you should do a little dance for them as well or something.”

Although he now lives in LA, Robert remains down to earth, saying matter-of-factly: “I just decided that I should try to act. So I auditioned for Guys and Dolls and got a little tiny part as some Cuban dancer and then I got the lead part, and then I got my agent. I owe everything to the Barnes Theatre Club.”

Not that it’s all been plain sailing. His scenes in 2004 movie Vanity Fair were deleted and, in 2005, he was fired from a West End play just before opening night.

But the lantern-jawed Londoner isn’t letting the adulation go to his head. He doesn’t even have a car.

“I can’t see any advantage to fame,” he says. “I’m happy with the life I have now. I’ve got the same two friends I’ve had since I was 12, and I can’t see that changing.

“I haven’t even seen the movie yet. If I watch my own stuff I want to be sick, every single time.”

I thought these were very good articles/interviews. Some of the questions we have heard time and time again, but some of them were new and interesting to read. Rob’s article in particular was pretty funny - he never fails to say something completely random.

What did you think of these articles? Did you learn anything new from them? Were you surprised at anything you read?
