Robert Pattinson’s on the road doing press for his new film Cosmopolis and he stopped by The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Monday, August 13th to talk about that film. This is Rob’s first round of interviews following his break-up with Kristen Stewart, and Jon Stewart offered him some Ben & Jerry’s and said they were just going to chat like girls and commiserate over their relationship troubles.
Asked Stewart, “So what are we doing here? Are you all right? Is everything okay? I’m worried about you, and you are all right?”
And Pattinson, who said he didn’t want to eat the ice cream for fear of splitting his Spanx, continued to be worried about the little container. In response, Pattinson replied, “I literally don’t even know how to approach this now,” but then he moved on to the interview question.
“This is the weird thing about these interviews. Now I’m going to sound like an idiot. My biggest problem in my life is I’m cheap and I didn’t hire a publicist. And every awkward interview…you know, normally actors get these things scripted…”
“I’m going to hire a publicist,” says Pattinson.
