Robert Pattinson: I want to kill my contact lenses

24th March 2011

(Cover) - FR Showbiz - Robert Pattinson admits he hates wearing contact lenses so much that two people have to hold him down when he is putting them in.

The actor is currently shooting The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, the final instalment of the popular vampire movie franchise which will be released in two parts. He wears coloured contact lenses for his role as brooding vampire Edward Cullen and even though he has been playing the character for years he still hasnt got used to them.

Robert cant wait to wrap his scenes in a few weeks time so he doesnt have to struggle with the lenses anymore.

My God, Ill be glad to see the last of those, he told Entertainment Weekly. I actually want to get some kind of plastic explosive. I want to reanimate them into something so I can kill them. Its so embarrassing for me after so many years, its still a process every single morning. Everybody else has figured out how to do it, and then theres two people holding me down because I cant do it myself.

The 24-year-old British hunk can next be seen in Water for Elephants, which also stars Reese Witherspoon. In the movie, Robert plays a handsome young veterinarian who joins the circus.

He is very proud of the picture and wants to prove he can challenge himself by landing different roles. However, he admits his onion isnt always popular with other people.

You can never really predict what an audience wants or how to maintain a career, he explained. Other than doing what you think is cool,

Generally, what I think is cool is what everyone else hates. (C) Cover Media
