Video: Robert Pattinson's Nerdy Beginning

April 24, 2009



Before he was winning hearts as Edward Cullen in the Twilight series, Robert Pattinson took a role playing a major geek to help pay his bills.

In the TV movie The Bad Mother's Handbook, which aired in the UK in 2007, Robert played geeky Daniel Gale — a clumsy, mumbling geek who hid behind black-framed glasses and his hair (that hung over his face for most of the movie). However, despite his bad outfits and nerdiness, he's still a charmer — and even has a kissing scene!

Check out a clip from the movie above, then let us know if you think Robert was a total geek... or geek chic.

Robert Pattinson is AMAZING in everthing he does he looked cute when he was 3 he looked hott in the bad mothers handbook. he lokked amazingly sexy as edward cullen in the twilight saga. and over all his completly and uderly drop dead sexy in everything else he does. but i think his fans should calm down a little he love kristen and wants a real relationship not just 14 million females that want to "rip his close off" or want him to "bite" them. not that i wouldnt want him to do either but i feel for him hes a better person than i would be with all the fandamonium. He needs a nice long vacation to relax! <3
