Whoooaaa! *pants* *faints*
The Twilight star gave his fans something else to Robsess over as he sported the new face fuzz on a post-Christmas day out with his sister LIZZY in Barnes, South-West London.
RPatz once admitted that until he was 12 his sis used to dress him up as a girl and introduce him to pals as Claudia.
He said: "Twelve was a turning point as I moved to a mixed school and then I became cool and discovered hair gel."

Director, Chris Weitz, spills the beans on a few things he hid in the film. Did you spot any of 'em?
1. Hidden wolves
''Look for an upside-down engraving of a wolf in the shot of the bowl in which Carlisle burns his first-aid equipment; on Jacob's T-shirt when he meets Bella in the school parking lot for the first time; and a wolf trinket on the dream-catcher that he gives her.''
2. Vampire elevator music
''When Edward, Bella, and Alice get into the elevator on their way to see the Volturi, the music playing in the elevator is from Strauss' Die Fledermaus (a.k.a. The Bat).''
3. Emotional baggage?
''When Bella is looking for the meadow where she and Edward are seen lying down together, she carries a golden compass clipped to her backpack — part of my baggage!''
4. Speedy suitor
''We did a little trick when Edward gets out of Bella's truck and they're arguing. We wanted to show Edward moving impossibly quickly, so we put Rob right next to the camera but out of sight, and used a double dressed like Rob in the driver's seat. When Edward gets out, it's the double, and then Rob steps in front of the camera, and it looks as if he got there faster than humanly possible.''
5. Look it up
''And last but not least: If you want to know what Jacob says before he almost kisses Bella, ask a Quileute! The address of the Quileute tribal council is quileutenation.org. I can tell you this much: He says, Kwop kilawtley.''
While the rest of the world went about business, for Twilight fans all over the globe, there was only one story worth reading about in 2009: The romance between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, otherwise known as Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in the popular tweenage vamp series. Missed something? OK! takes a look back at the year in Robsten to fill in the gaps.
FEBRUARY
• With no Kristen around and New Moon filming far off, Rob complained about not being able to get a date in NYC. After reading that story, eleven billion R-Pattz fans bought plane tickets to find him and assure him that they were available.
APRIL
• The cast of New Moon finally reunites up in Vancouver to begin filming. Rob and the rest of the gang head out on the town to help Kristen celebrate her birthday. Kristen was still dating Michael Angarano at the time, but still… Wonder if she got a birthday smooch?
MAY
• Kristen returns the birthday love, going out with Rob for his birthday in Vancouver. With Kristen by his side, we can guess what he wished for!
• The heat turns up on Robsten as the two are spotted acting awfully flirtatious at a concert in Vancouver.
• Burgeoning passion between the two almost boils over during a fake-out kiss at the MTV Movie awards, after the twosome won “Best Kiss.” We’re sure they had fun practicing that one! A friend tells OK! after the awards: “Robert and Kristen spent a lot of time alone together when they filmed the first Twilight movie — they’d stay up most of the night talking, laughing, playing music. Although [Robert] knew Kristen had a boyfriend, he made no secret of the fact that he was crazy about her.”
JUNE
• Just when things are heaing up between Rob and Kristen, he heads to NYC to start filming Remember Me while she stays behind in L.A. to film The Runaways.
• Twilight’s director Catherine Hardwicke sort of admits the two could be dating. Crowds of fans crow, “Told ya so!”
• Sick of waiting on Kristen to break up with Michael Angarano, Rob tells her to choose. And (eventually), she picks R-Pattz!
• While Kristen summons the courage to split with Michael, Rob gets close with co-star Emilie de Ravin, and Kristen gets nervous.
JULY
• Kristen and Michael are done with (or near enough to it), and before seeing him again at Comic Con in San Diego, she gets herself prepped to go full steam ahead with Rob.
• Reunited and it feels so good! While their public reunion is a bit awkard, the private meet-up goes much better for Robsten.
The actors, who play lovers Bella Swan and Edward Cullen in the hit vampire franchise, had dinner at Gjelina restaurant on Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach before heading together for the opening of a fashion boutique and eyewear store. Owen Wilson, Zach Galifianakis and Olivia Wilde were some of the celebs in attendance, E! Online reported.
"Robert and Kristen were eating next door and peaked in the window after their dinner as the party was wrapping up," a source said.
"Kristen was wearing an old white T-shirt with her hair in a ponytail. Rob was wearing jeans, a tee and a dark coat. It looked like they were on a nice stroll through the neighborhood. They seemed really just into hanging together.
They weren't holding hands, but were really sweet with each other," another eyewitness said.
Pattinson, 23 and Stewart, 19 have refused to comment on the status of their relationship despite mounting evidence to the contrary.

6. Robert Pattinson
In 2009, all eyes were on RPattz. Despite only releasing one movie, there were few people whose face sold more magazines, whose every word made more of a ripple and whose public appearances caused such a stir. Under such pressure, a lot of 23-year-old actors would end up getting into trouble, indulging to the point of excess and disappointing their fans. But somehow, the uniquely suited-for-stardom Robert Pattinson took it all with a good-natured grin and self-deprecating charm. In "Twilight" and beyond, his future seems so bright that he'll likely be sparkling for quite some time.
2009 Highlights: We all know Rob had a busy 2009, and everybody had their own thoughts on what he should do after "Twilight." Few saw his first move coming, however, as he dropped out of the indie flick "Parts Per Billion," leaving producer/star Rosario Dawson sad but promising the show would go on. In February, he showed up at the Oscars and stole attention away from stars as big as Brad and Angelina. Despite expressing fears that he might become "Twilighted out" while shooting "New Moon" and "Eclipse" back-to-back, he nevertheless got back to work as Edward Cullen.

At the MTV Movie Awards, Rob unveiled a new trailer from "New Moon," Kristen Stewart left him longing for a cold shower, and he cracked up watching KStew fumble her trophy. During an exclusive interview, he promised that "New Moon" would look "amazing." Rob later returned for the Video Music Awards alongside Kristen and Taylor Lautner and helped raise eyebrows with their fashionable duds.
Despite rumors that his reduced screen presence in "New Moon" would keep him away, Rob made a surprise appearance at San Diego's Comic-Con to show off footage from the movie, reflect on a hallucinating Bella and hang out with the geeks. Things sure were a lot different than they were a year ago — even if Rob insisted he's stayed the same.
In the midst of all the hype, rumors and insanity, Rob actually managed to make movement on some non-"Twilight" movies in 2009. His romantic drama "Remember Me," opposite Emilie de Ravin, had a memorable time shooting in New York, which appears to have left him brooding after that time he was almost killed by a taxi — or barely grazed, depending on whom you ask. He also signed on to "Unbound Captives," a western co-starring Rachel Weisz that offered Rob the chance to play a character who "can't really be more different from Edward." He also signed on to "Bel Ami," a film that pits him opposite Uma Thurman as a "totally immoral character."
But all that paled in comparison to when he hit the "New Moon" premiere, looking fashionable as he greeted the fans and talked about the good and bad parts of being, well, him. Fans freaked out when he hit the Hot Topic tour opening night, and in a very revealing Rough Cut with MTV News, he spoke about his lack of endorsement deals, why "New Moon" is his favorite "Twilight" book, what he loves about Kristen and Edward's annoying habit of parking his Volvo across multiple parking spaces.
To make a long story short, "New Moon" had a record-shattering opening and became one of the biggest films of 2009. Now, with Taylor Lautner hosting "Saturday Night Live," we continue to hope that RPattz can't be far behind — so let the guy write a sketch already! Edward might be a jerk, but of all the dudes who hang out in our office on a regular basis, Rob will always remain our favorite seasonal vegetable.
“I don’t know if I’m particularly funny, I mean one of my legs is shorter than the other one, it makes everything look very awkward, so I can just pretty much look like an idiot, but I don’t know whether I can be like witty. It could be a problem.” - Robert Pattinson, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if he would do comedic roles in the future)
“I would. I’m just too, I’m kind of, a pussy, I guess. That’s the problem. But, no, I’d love to. I think everybody should do open mics. I think it’s very healthy for your soul. So yeah, I’d love to do it again, but I don’t know. It’s like I’m cutting a record if I do open mic now, so, I don’t know.” - Robert Pattinson, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked is he would preform open mic again)
“I look a bit like him.” - Robert Pattinson, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked what he had in common with Edward Cullen)
“I actually think being involved in the cesarean would be… I just can’t wait!” - Robert Pattinson, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked what he was looking forward to in the upcoming films)
“No, not really. I mean, at the end of the day, it’s just a part. You just go into it, and like your life, you’re walking along the street, as a really bad analogy, you step on a little stone, and it just kind of flies away and you have no idea where it’s going. And then you are just trying not to drown afterwards. And that’s my life. See, that was really terrible.” - Robert Pattinson, Comic-Con 2009 (When asked if playing Edward Cullen made him feel stronger and how he had prospered from the role)
