Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson says he doesn’t need to flash his six-pack to get attention.

“I don’t walk around with my shirt off all the time!” he joked, poking fun at co-star Taylor Lautner. “It’s like driving a fancy car – you’re insecure about something.”

Pattinson, who plays vampire hunk Edward, said of New Moon: “It’s my favourite book. I really connected to [it] really quickly. It think it’s an improvement [on Twilight]. It was nice not being the lead.”

Pattinson also revealed how one of the many rumors that fly around about him scared his mother back in England.

“I had a heroin overdose in New York, that was an exciting one for my mother,” he said of the false report. “I’d been working so much, I didn’t answer the phone. I’m so ignorant. I don’t think it had set in that anyone read [the tabloids].”
