Pattinson: 'I got really paranoid'

Robert Pattinson has revealed that he became "really paranoid" after appearing in Twilight.

The actor told France's Premiere magazine that he found fame hard to deal with.

"I was getting really paranoid," he admitted. "If tomorrow I say, 'Okay, I've had enough, we're stopping everything', it won't change anything.

"Might as well try to accept it and stay Zen as I have no control over it. It's not always easy. But whining won't change anything."

Pattinson added that he had realised he was famous at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

"I was in a restaurant during a break, and when I came out two hours later, 500 people were waiting for me at the exit," he explained. "It was total chaos.

"I'm sure that if I told one of those girls, 'Come, let's go have breakfast', she would have been totally embarrassed and would never scream my name again."
