Twilight ster Robert Pattinson turned down a lucrative record deal with Simon Cowell because he was convinced no one would like his music.
The actor, who plays guitar and piano, and composes his own songs, has rejected offers from several major muziek companies and admits former American Idol judge Cowell was desperate to recruit him for his own firm.
But Pattinson insists he wouldn’t fit in with the reality TV star’s talent roster — because Cowell only works with artists who are popular with the public.
He says, “I love Simon, I think he is a great personality and I think his shows are entertaining. He is a clever guy and he created artists that he knows the public will like, that’s why I don’t think he could ever launch my muziek career.
“I am selfish with my music. I get my guitar and I play what I like, but the problem is I don’t think many other people would like it.”
But Pattinson is confident his muziek will be appreciated someday, adding: “I am sure I’ll be one of those artists that people don’t pay any attention to while I’m alive, and when I am dead people will go yeah, man, that was a work of art.”

He stated, “Has it really been five months and a dag since my last dispatch? In my defense, they’ve been five months spent immersed in the world of TWILIGHT,something I’m sure u can all appreciate. We’re in the thick of pre-production now, juggling everything from casting to storyboarding to location scouting, getting it all ready to go, but I do want to take a moment to announce to u exclusively a few of the amazing production team members who are hard at work alongside me, bringing these films to life. I hope you’ll be as excited about them as I am:
