Mar. 14th, 2009 02:24 pmPattinson: New role's 'naked stuff' uncomfortable
"The "Twilight" actor portrays Spanish artist Salvador Dali as a young man. He tells GQ magazine's April issue that he was uncomfortable as crew members watched and giggled during his graphic interlude with a male co-star."
The article is careful to make it sound like it was the naked in general that made him antsy, but I really hope it wasn't the fact that it was a gay sex scene that squicked him. That would be disappointing. Makes me think of during mock trial this year, when we were in the hotel and the one straight guy had to share a bed with the only other guy on the team, who was gay. And he was totally cool with it--I mean, he wasn't excited, but you could chalk that up to not being excited about having to share a bed at all. I was really impressed, you know? I mean, it shouldn't be a thing, because do you really think that somebody's going to put the moves on you in your sleep when there are other people in the room, but for so many people it is, so his maturity was really cool.
