Happy Birthday to Rob!   You’ve come a long way, baby! At 28, you have so much to be proud of. And there is even more to look forward to on the horizon.  As the song goes, “the future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades.”

Mexico style.  October 2008 is one of my favourite Rob eras

So yesterday I had a complete mental block of Rob ever talking about being a waiter (as mentioned in Harper’s Bazaar Russia article).  I’m happy to say I’m wrong thanks to Pat who sent me the link in our comments section.  Rob mentions it at about 5.15 – I’ve put behind the cut because it’s autoplays

I LOVE seeing and reading this kind of recognition for Rob.   Josh Ralske from TWCCentral can see what we’ve been seeing for years.  Not that I need validation, but it’s nice to actually read a non fandom person’s account and honest opinion.  I usually also like to only extract relevant parts, but it’s ALL relevant so please show Josh some love and head on over to his article and let him know what you think:

“There are plenty of successful young actors, teen idols in particular, who keep trying to recapture what’s worked for them in the past and end up fading into obscurity as their fan base outgrows them. Like Daniel Radcliffe, Robert Pattinson is apparently smart enough (or well-advised enough) to recognize that he’ll never recapture the magic of the tween-beloved franchise that made him a superstar. He could be doing superhero movies or Fifty Shades of Grey, but instead, he’s choosing ambitious, challenging, grown-up indie projects, while keeping his sexy face out there with a superb high-end ad campaign.
