Robert Pattinson Lied in a TV Interview About Seeing a Clown Die in a Car Explosion; He Makes Up Stories Because Boring Questions Put Him in a ‘Fugue State’

Robert Pattinson admits he lies during press interviews because he gets so bored with being asked the same questions and goes into a "fugue state."

That was the year “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1” opened in theaters, meaning Pattinson was on a particularly grueling global publicity tour. The actor explained that he often made up stories in press interviews during this time in his career because “the only thing people would ever ask me about was being famous” and “you go into, like, a fugue state.” Other lies Pattinson told in interviews include being a women’s hand model, taking a stalker to dinner and shooting a coprophilia scene for “Twilight” that got deleted. Pattinson spoke to The New York Times Style Magazine ahead of next year’s release of “Mickey 17,” directed by “Parasite” Oscar winner Bong Joon Ho.
