The 'Twilight' leading actor reveals he attempted to calm his nerves with a small dose of Valium.
Landing the lead role as vampire Edward Cullen in "
Twilight" apparently made
Robert Pattinson shock and panic. But the 22-year-old hunk had his own way to take over it, by taking a Valium.
The actor confesses he attempted to calm his nerves with a small dose of Valium, a drug which is used to treat anxiety disorders. "I took half a Valium and then went into this thing - and all this stuff happened," he says.
Robert reveals, "It was the first time I've ever taken Valium. A quarter. A quarter of a Valium." The British heartthrob adds, "I tried to do it for another audition, and it just completely backfired - I was passing out."
