Vampire romance co-stars deny tabloid reports

Pattinson, who became an overnight heartthrob after starring in last year's movie adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's vampire romance novel, told Vanity Fair in its latest edition that the co-stars were not an item.

“It doesn't make any difference what you say (to the tabloids),” Pattinson said. “I've literally been across the country (from Kristen), and it's like Oh, they were on secret dates!' It's like Where? I can't get out of my hotel room!'?”

Stewart meanwhile offered a withering dismissal of the reports. “It's so retarded,” she told the magazine. “We're characters in this comic book.”

“Twilight” was one of the biggest hits of 2008, grossing nearly US$400 million worldwide.

The next film in the franchise, “New Moon”, is due for release in North America on November 20.
