It's insane. I've had girls throwing themselves at me since the hype started. Now the film's out I can't walk down the street without being pounced on. All my life I've hated crowds. Now I only have to step outdoors and I'm at the centre of one. It's very cool but it's very uncomfortable too.

It’s funny now, trying to socialise with people. There’s this cautiousness about people which I just find really weird.

In some ways I would like to be like Tyler, my char­ac­ter in the film.

My biggest problem in my life is I'm cheap and I didn't hire a publicist. In every awkward interview, normally actors get these things scripted.

I don't really see the point in washing your hair. If you don't care if your hair's clean or not then why would you wash it?

I'm really scary in reality. Most of the time.

After the first one [Twilight Saga movie], as soon as people start referring to something as a franchise. A franchise is a Burger King or a Subway. It's not a movie. The people who start to say it are generally the people who are making money off of it. That's how they refer to it. They love it when something has become a franchise. But, as an actor, I think it's scary.
