Geeky Girl’s Hunk o’ the Month (January)

Okay, so we realise we’re a tiny bit late with this, but better late than never, no? And we don’t know about you, but we’d happily wait a long, long, long time for January’s winner – Mr Robert Pattinson!

Thanks for voting and you’re clearly not alone in your admiration (and lets face it, adoration) of RPatZ. People magazine voted Robert Pattinson as one of the Sexist Men Alive in 2008 and if you’re a Geeky Girlite, you will have surely noticed our breathy prose in relation to all things RPatZ.

To celebrate our continuing love affair with the PatZ and with his new status as our Hunk of the Month (could there be a better accolade?) here’s some random trivia to spit at your friends and pictures to stare, erm, we mean, occasionally glance at.

  • Rob was born on 13th May 1986. Praise be!
  • He’s rather tall at a strapping 6’ 1”.
  • Rob’s home town is Barnes, London.He supports Arsenal football club, but we won’t hold that against him, no one’s perfect.
  • Rob beat 3,000 other people to win the role of Edward Cullen in Twilight.
  • Rob’s eyes are actually blue/gray – he wears gold tinted contacts in the Twilight saga.
  • He was named as the GQ (UK) Best Dressed Man of 2009. "Extremely elegant and inspiring, the true essence of a contemporary man." Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, D&G.
  • He’s got talented hands – seriously! This is no innuendo, the man is a very talented pianist and can play the classical guitar. Check him out on You Tube with this gorgeous ditty *sigh*. 

Most of us have cottoned on to the Robert Pattinson phenomenon due to the success of the Twilight and Harry Potter franchises, but if you want to delve a little deeper into this particular actor’s body of work and educate yourself or just stare at his pretty face, you can find a complete filmography below.

New Moon (2009) - Twilight (2008) - Little Ashes (2008) - How to Be (2008) - The Summer House (2008) - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) - The Bad Mother's Handbook (2007) (TV) - The Haunted Airman (2006) (TV) - Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) - Ring of the Nibelungs (2004) (TV) - Vanity Fair (2004) (uncredited).
