With the final sparkly vampire movie, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2, out this Friday, Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward Cullen has been making the rounds of the talk shows. Last week, he appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, the same night as Carrie Underwood.  

Robert readily admitted he is a big fan of Carrie, but told a story of a recent visit to Nashville. While in Music City, stopped in Gruhn Guitars and without knowing it, met one of country's best musicians.  “There was a guy there in a baseball cap and he was just playing guitar and he was like one of those guitar shop people who seem really impressive,” Robert told Jimmy. “He seemed like a normal guy and he was really sweet. Every guitar I picked up, I’m sitting there playing my G and C, that’s about all I can manage, and every single time I touched a guitar they’d be like ‘Do you want this guy….” When asked who he was, Robert had some trouble recalling. "What was his name? Who is like, the most famous country guitarist?” he asked before the name came to him. "Brad Paisley! They’d say ‘Do you want Brad to just play it?’ I thought he was just a guy that worked there. I had no idea who he was!” While Robert knows his way around a guitar well enough, he knew his skills were nowhere near Brad’s level. “He was talking about his farm and stuff and he seemed like a really good guitarist,” Robert said. “I had no idea who he was. I was like ‘I don’t want Brad to play it, this guy who works here, because he’s really good!’” Read all about it, and watch the clip here. P.S.  Can't wait for the movie!!!
