Hollywood Hunk Robert Pattinson is stirring up quite a frenzy on the set of his new film, New Moon. But the ruckus isn’t from swarming paparazzi or frenzied fans, it’s from the stench that exudes from the star himself. The buzz about his terrible body odor is taking center stage.

Twilight’s hottest vampire has publicly admitted that he doesn’t have a sense of personal hygiene. In an interview with Extra, the star says he doesn’t think it’s necessary to wash his hair — or his body for that matter. When asked if it was true that he once said he hadn’t washed his hair for six weeks, he answered, “Probably. I don’t know. I don’t really see the point in washing your hair.”

Pattinson’s lack of hygiene has been dismissed as a typical European aversion of daily showers. However, some crew members on the set of his latest films feel differently.

“He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy,” dishes someone who works in very close quarters with Pattz.

“He completely reeks,” complains another annoyed crewmember.

Pattz isn’t the first smokin’ hot celeb to avoid the shower. Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey have all reportedly left personal hygiene and grooming by the wasteside.
