Dragtastic: Robert Pattinson's cross-dressing past

The teen heartthrob has confessed that his two sisters once got a kick out of unleashing his feminine side.

"Up until I was 12, my sisters used to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as Claudia," he confessed.

"Twelve was a real turning point for me as I moved to a mixed school, and then I became cool and discovered hair gel."

Now, despite adorning the bedroom walls of thousands of kids across the world, he reckons he's surprised by the attention he gets.

“If somebody asks me out on a date, I go out with them," he said.

"But I never get asked. And I never know how to ask other people. I’m not good at the whole ‘dinner’ thing. I’m a bit of a loner.

"I’m boring. I stay home, watch TV and eat a lot of fast food. That’s really exciting, isn’t it?"

We can think of a few million birds who'd love to snuggle up with this dreamboat on the couch - we'd probably settle for Claudia as well!
