Robert Pattinson's baby photos

I'm down with flu at the moment and really shouldn't be sitting in front of the computer. But I have something on my chest (apart from all the horrible phlegm) that I really need to get rid off. I was feeling a little better this morning and thought I'd treat myself to a few pages of People magazine. A special collector's edition, in fact, all about New Moon and its stars. I thought it would do me good to forget about cold compresses on a miserable day in Munich and instead dream of gorgeous Edward on a sun-lit Italian piazza.

It didn't work. And why not? Because the stupid editors at People magazine decided to run a double page with baby photographs! Don't get me wrong. It's fine to have a photo of Kristen Stewart as an 11-year-old starring in Panic Room next to Jodie Foster. Or 12-year-old Taylor Lautner as Sharkboy. And there's definitely nothing wrong with being reminded of how gorgeous Robert Pattinson looked as Cedric Diggory. But I really draw the line at baby photographs.

First of all, you can't tell it's Rob anyway. He looks just like every other two-year-old out on a rainy day in London. Secondly, the photos are grainy and seriously embarrassing for any self-respecting person. But most importantly: I don't want Rob in my head like that! Wearing blue sandals and a safety harness! Huddled up in a pushchair or all proud on his tricycle! I know it, my feverish dreams will now be haunted by Robert Pattinson's two-year-old self. I won't see the gorgeous vampire standing on the other side of the piazza but be chased across it by a toddler in checked shorts and braces! 

Don't catch the flu!
