Twilight star Pattinson uses fans as his diary

Twilight star Robert Pattinson uses his fan sites as a diary to tell him where he is supposed to be.

The 24-year-old actor said: "It's kind of incredible the information that they get so quickly. Sometimes I check them just to see what my schedule is."

Pattinson, who is dating his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart, is currently promoting the final film from the trilogy - Eclipse.

The stars recently upset British fans by announcing that they will not be attending the UK Premiere in London, and will instead be delivering video messages to the red carpet.

Pattinson is currently filming Bel Ami, a movie based on Guy de Maupassant's novel of the same name. The star plays Georges Duroy, a man who rises to the top by manipulating a series of powerful and wealthy mistresses. Actresses Uma Thurman and Christina Ricci are also in the film.
