Robert Pattinson was once so distraught after a break-up he crawled into a dog basket and cried himself to sleep.
The British actor was left devastated when he discovered his childhood sweetheart was cheating on him, and after a boozy night out he found comfort by curling up beside his beloved pet pooch.
He says, "I remember when I was a teenager thinking my girlfriend was cheating on me, and going around riling myself up. Pretending to cry, I went to some pub and then went crying all the way home.
"And I got into my dog's bed. I was crying and holding on to the dog. I woke up in the morning and the dog was looking at me like, 'You're a fake.'"
However the actor tried to impress his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart by faking a love of highbrow films.
Director Catherine Hardwicke has confirmed the pair are an item after revealing Stewart decided she wanted give it "a go" and be with the British actor.
Pattinson reportedly asked Stewart to marry him several times a week, and now he admits he had to fight for her attention by pretending to be interested in intellectual films and authors.
He says, "I thought to myself, because she's so serious, I've got to be really serious. I felt like an idiot just following her around saying, 'You really should read some Zola, and there's this amazing Truffaut movie'.
"She started calling me on things. She would ask, 'Have you actually watched this movie? What's it about?'"
