Robert Pattinson vs. Taylor Lautner : Twilight Showdown

After hiding out in his native London for more than a month, Twilight’s breakout star, Robert Pattinson, returned to Hollywood to stake his claim to the hearts of crazed fans. “I’m happy to be back,” he told Life & Style exclusively. But Rob’s journey could be cut short because his character, vampire Edward Cullen, skips town in the flick’s sequel, New Moon. The story then centers on his ladylove, Bella (Kristin Stewart), getting closer to werewolf Jacob Black, played by fresh-faced Taylor Lautner. “I wanted to get Twilight over with, let Edward have his time with Bella and get moving with New Moon,” Taylor tells Life & Style. “It’s about time Jacob got in there.”

Even Hollywood is divided between the two leading men:

“I think Robert is a beautiful man and an amazing actor. He’s fabulous.” —Paris Hilton

“I told my boyfriend [Mike Comrie], ‘Find me a vampire and you might be done!’ Rob’s handsome.” —Hilary Duff

TEAM TAYLOR:

“Taylor is definitely going to be the breakout star in the sequel. I’m on Team Taylor!” —Brittny Gastineau
