The sight of Zac Efron fully clothed in the High School Musical franchise is already enough to make a dozen of fan girls swoon with delight. Robert Pattinson doing his magic on screen whether as a Volvo-riding vampire or a broom-toting Quiddith player is readily considered by womankind as an ultimate symbol of male perfection. What more if these teen idols go shirtless on screen?

Let’s face it – the greatest way to get a girl’s attention is a man’s rippled abs, beautifully formed biceps and smooth chest especially when these belong to drop dead gorgeous shirtless teen idols. They may look like the innocent and prude boys you can take home to mom, but underneath those shirts hide perfectly sculpted muscles that can rival those of Greek gods statues.

Aside from the fact that they can be used to repopulate the world during human extinction because of their amazing genetic structures, these teen idols offer something more than their looks – TALENT. Not only are they ultimate eye candies to women, they can also act, sing, and become truly avante garde. These teen idols are the total package. Take for instance the hottest heartthrob of 2008, Robert Pattinson. He is good looking and all, but it’s this natural acting talent and the drive to make good movies that got him the roles of a lifetime like Cedric Diggory and recently, Edward Cullen. His appeal and acting skills are perfect for mainstream and independent films. This is why he always gets the best of both worlds in terms of movie roles. One time, he is a hunk sweeping Bella off her feet, the next he becomes the prodigious painter, Salvador Dali.

Another shirtless teen idols considered more phenomenal than their beautiful bare chest are the Jonas Brothers. Composed of Kevin, Joe and Nick, the trio has been around Hollywood since they were six years old. Through the years, fans have seen them mature into gorgeous young men. Their music and acting projects propelled their career into worldwide superstardom. Because of this, female fans are now fixated on every merchandise that has something Jonas on it.

Being a super hunk in Hollywood might not be as dandy as it sounds. At a very young age, these teen idols have already been thrown into the crazy world of popularity and fame. Girls are swarming around them, everybody’s telling them how successful they could get, and then there is the squeaky clean image that they need to maintain. Most often than not, they could only go shirtless on films and photo shoots to uphold the wholesome reputation they project. They may not be able to fully enjoy the joys of being young, hot and loaded because paparazzi hound them wherever they go. When they are on the beach, these shirtless teen idols are photographed and almost everything about them is talked about. This is the price of fame.

Robert Pattinson tells Italian Vanity Fair Magazine he is single and available on December 9, 2009.

December 11, 2009 — Hey Twilight fans who think Robert Pattinson is cute and would be interested in getting to know the New Moon star, good news: The hunk is single. According to the actor himself, RPatz, though extremely busy, is both single and available. A recent piece published in Italian Vanity Fair gets the British movie star to talk about his life and about how he is completely and utterly misunderstood.

“I am single — almost everything that comes out about my private life is false.” says Pattinson in the high-profile magazine, talking about who he is. “I think it happens because, really, there is not much to say about what I’m doing. While I am filming, I live practically like a recluse in a hotel.”

Robert Pattinson may live like a recluse, but the New Moon star doesn’t have to continue that lifestyle in temporary housing. The heartthrob made bank on the latest Twilight movie and with the next one being released in about six months should provide enough money to buy the now-famous actor at least a condo, but probably more like a mansion, in which to enjoy some time off. So, Robert Pattinson, stop being a workaholic and put some more fun back into your life.

Official spokesfolks for the stars and the film say there’s nothing to this, but a key production staffer at the “New Moon” set in Vancouver tells me Pattinson is getting ‘‘a little jealous’’ of all the attention his fellow screen bloodsucker Lautner is getting lately.

Ironically, Pattinson has made it clear — to just about anyone he talks to — how much he hates being the target of all that tabloid fascination with his love life and virtually every other aspect of his daily existence.

Yet my source says Pattinson strikes her as being an example of something she calls “a damned if you do, damned if you don’t” scenario.

‘‘While Rob despises all the paparazzi and crazy magazine stories, he still has the usual actor’s big ego thing going on. He wants his privacy, but he also loves having arrived on the A-list and knows that being in the public eye is part of that.

‘‘If he really wanted to avoid the press, you wouldn’t see him hitting all the hot nightclubs and restaurants in Hollywood or Vancouver. … He knows that’s where the paparazzi hang out, that’s for sure.’’

The source also adds that Lautner is a ‘‘total sweetheart, who gets a kick out of all the attention. He loves his fans, he loves this successful rollercoaster he’s on and he’s very fond of Rob, as a colleague and friend.

‘‘He just thinks it’s funny that Rob wants all the fame stuff for him and [‘Twilight’ and ‘New Moon’ co-star] Kristen [Stewart],’’ who the source also says is definitely in a romantic — as well as professional — relationship with Pattinson.

We already told you that Eclipse was going to be a lot more man-friendly than the first Twilight movie. But now director Chris Weitz is telling us that New Moon is going to be pretty manly too. Girls, alert the men in your lives!

And it doesn’t just have to do with the obvious (and unfortunate) lack of Robert Pattinson in the second movie, though that does play a big part in it. Now, New Moon director Chris Weitz is stepping forward to talk about why he thinks New Moon is a lot more guy-friendly than the first movie.

Chris explains, “You’ve got the werewolves coming in… and the effects are going to be great on that part of the movie.” Guys love special effects, right? Plus, we think a vicious werewolf is probably more appealing to a guy than a lovey-dovey vampire.

New Moon Too Manly?

But there’s more! Chris also talks about fighting scenes, claiming that there’s more of them in this second movie. And obviously guys love fighting! But maybe most important, and this has to do with Edward’s absence, is that there’s a lot of Taylor Latuner in the movie. No, your boyfriend might not be in love with a young hot guy with his shirt off much of the movie, but Chris has an explanation for why Jacob makes New Moon manly.

He says that Jacob “is inherently a more viable character for most boys because he’s like an ordinary guy. He works on cars, whereas Edward is a perfect man, and maybe he only appeals to perfect men. That makes the demographic rather small! So there’s more of a way into this one – we do hope to up the male demographic!”

That makes complete sense to us! Why would your guys want to watch a movie about a man you’re in love wit who they can never live up to? But when they see you loving Jacob, they think that maybe they could be like Jacob too.
