Edward Cullen is the sexiest movie vampire we have ever seen on the big screen. Robert Pattinson has topped ‘Glamour Magazine’s Top 31 Sexiest Vampires’ list.

The 24-year-old Twilight hunk had some tough contenders in this category. He faced strong competition from his Twilight Saga co-stars. Twilight’s Alec (portrayed by Cameron Bright), Victoria (by Rachelle Lefevre and Bryce Dallas Howard), Demetri (by Charlie Bewley ), Alice Cullen (by Ashley Greene), Carlisle Cullen (by Peter Facinelli), Jasper Hale(by Jackson Rathbone), Rosalie Hale (by Nikki Reed), Caius (by Jamie Campbell Bower), Riley Biers (by Xavier Samuel), Emmett Cullen (by Kellan Lutz) were among the 31 vamps at Glamour Magazine.

The Vampire Diaries’ Damon Salvatore, portrayed by Ian Somerhalder hold on to the second place.

The ‘Twilight Saga’ dominated the Teen Choice Awards in August picking up an incredible haul of 11 prizes. Robert and Kristen won the Choice Summer Movie Star: Male and Choice Summer Movie Star: Female accolades respectively.

In 2009, he was also named the “Sexiest Man Alive” by Glamour. Ask Men named Rob as one of the top 49 most influential men of 2009. Pattinson was named one of the “Sexiest Men Alive” in 2008 and 2009 by People magazine. In 2009, Vanity Fair named Pattinson “the most handsome man in the world”.

The ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ heartthrob is said to be so keen to dispel rumours he has bad personal hygiene, he damaged one of his gnashers by cleaning them so thoroughly.

His co-star for the next film in the ‘Twilight’ franchise, ‘Eclipse’, Bryce Dallas Howard, said he confessed to her.

She said: “He was like, ‘Oh, I have to go to the dentist.’ And I was like, ‘Oh no, what happened? Just a check-up?’ And he was like, ‘No, I chipped a tooth.’

“I was like, ‘How?’ And he was like, ‘Flossing.’ Who does that? I don’t even floss. So he’s hygienic. Trust me.”

Last year rumours spread from the set of ‘Twilight Saga: New Moon’ that British actor Robert doesn’t wash often enough.

A source said: “He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy. He completely reeks.”

While Bryce dispelled such rumours, she added she was daunted by meeting the 23-year-old actor, who portrays vampire Edward Cullen in the ‘Twilight’ franchise, but he helped her overcome her fears.

She added to New York magazine: “I actually came out to him that I was totally nervous about meeting him. He’s such a sweet young man, and there’s such a distinctive difference between him and Edward Cullen.

“He does such a wonderful job embodying that character, and bringing that character to life. But when you meet him, he’s such a down-to-earth, humble person, you feel bad freaking out around him.”
