Robert Pattinson Calls Out Hypocrisy of Celebrity Activists

Robert Pattinson is feeling a little combative these days.

The actor recently went off on the nickname of R. Patt and then followed that up in the same interview with The Guardian, focusing his ire on celebrity activities and especially singling out those who got involved with Occupy Wall Street.

"I remember when Occupy happened in LA. I knew a bunch of actors who went down to it," Pattinson said. "They all drove down there, because no one takes the train, and parked one stop away, because they didn't want to be seen driving their free Audis, and then got on the train.

"I was like, 'What are you doing? You're probably ruining it for the other people'. I guess that's kind of a bubble; you want to say things, but you are being hypocritical. I've never really been in a position to give my opinion on political stuff before, it doesn't really come up. But suddenly you've got to take an enormous amount of responsibility."

Pretty heavy stuff from Robert. If you prefer to think of the actor solely as eye candy, you're in lucky: new Breaking Dawn photos have been released!
