Robert Pattinson’s most terrifying childhood trauma is a total fabrication.
The New York Times recently reported that during an interview with the Twilight actor, he confessed to watching a television interview of himself from back in 2011. In the clip, R-Patz told a made-up story about seeing a clown die in a car explosion when he was younger.
NYT wrote: “There was absolutely no hesitation at all [in my voice],” he says with a combination of pride and alarm. “I’m like, ‘What on earth? Are you possessed?” In truth, he was just bored.”

The Hollywood star has been known to tell other fabricated stories over the years, including that he was a women’s hand model, that a deleted Twilight scene shows coprophilia and that he managed to shake off a stalker by taking her out for dinner and boring her with his problems.

Pattinson gave a reason as to why he told so many lies: “The only thing people would ever ask me about was being famous. You go into, like, a fugue state.”
Since Twilight, the actor has become a well-established Hollywood actor and is best known for his iconic leading roles in The Batman, Remember Me and The Lighthouse.

Fans of Harry Potter will know him as Cedric Diggory from The Goblet Of Fire, and R-Patz fans are gearing up to watch his next highly-anticipated flick Mickey 17.
The sc-fi comedy, expected to be releasedi n April 2025, follows Mickey Barnes who signs up to be an “expendable” in an attempt to get out of Earth. His role as a disposable employee means that when one version of himself dies, another is regenerated with memories intact.
However, his 17th iteration unintentionally survives a human expedition to colonise a world called Niflheim and ends up battling with the regenerated Mickey 18.
