Rob is #17 on AskMen UK 'Top 49 Men of 2011'


WHY IS ROBERT PATTINSON NO 17?

Imagine everywhere you go women fawn at your feet: in fact you spend most of your time batting them off in between managing your £32 million fortune. Now imagine that at Forbes magazine has named you one of the most powerful celebs in the world and Times magazine has you down as one of the 100 most influential men in the world - oh and you're still only 25. Welcome to Robert Pattinson's world.

His role as the sensitive vampire Edward Cullen in 2008’s Twilight catapulted Londoner Pattinson’s face into stardom and into the high school lockers of girls the world over. He's raised the bar on how women measure good looks, and has also become one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. Not that we hate him for it or anything you understand. The jammy git.

THREE HIGHLIGHTS OF ROBERT PATTINSON'S 2011

Rumoured to be wanted for Green Day's American Idiots movie.
Brought his relationship with Kristen Stewart out in the open.
Topped Glamour magazine's poll of the 50 sexiest men for the second consecutive year.

A survey of over 7000 readers of website AskMen to find whose achievements, profile and status had the biggest impact on UK life over the last 12 months

Drew Lubega, UK Editor of AskMen.com, said: "This was the year that our readers believe Prince William finally came of age, making the royal family accessible and cool, in a way that the previous generation failed. He's a hard worker determined to use his global profile for good causes.

"Everyone who makes the Top 49 have experienced an incredible year - shaping the opinions and tastes of men across the UK. Making the list is an achievement, but against the toughest economic background for almost a century, it's incredibly telling that our Prime Minister wasn't considered more influential by young Brits."

I'm just curious. So JustinBieber is the 11th. He is more influental than Rob... and huh, Charlie Sheen is the 8th. Is this list a joke? Anyway.. I don't think any of singers, football-players, actors are influental in the world.... Maybe we are more interested n them than the economy, the GDP, the politics...
