Robert Pattinson “Twilighting” As A Rapper? Actor Reveals Rap Name on ‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’

Twilight star Robert Pattinson made an appearance on last night's episode of NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers to promote his newest film, The Rover. During the segment, the Weekend Update star turned talk show host asked about one of Pattinson's childhood dreams: to be a famous rapper.

"When you were younger you wanted to be a rapper?" asked Meyers. "Yeah, 100%," smirked the former Edward Cullen. "I still kind of do." If anyone knows Pattinson –– let's be honest, we all do –– you're well aware of the fact that his energy is the complete opposite of any hip hop artist we've come to know, which is something Meyers jumped on right away.

RPatz then enlightened the in-studio and at-home audiences with the moniker he had for himself should his rap career ever actually take off: Big Tub.

Almost immediately, Meyers joked, "That was your rap name? Did you pick last?"

The name apparently spawned from the actor's paranoia with his weight as a child. Luckily, he doesn't seem to have that problem these days. Just imagine how different the Twilight franchise would have been!

As if wanting to be known as Big Tub wasn't enough of a reveal, the actor went on to admit that somewhere there are "lost tapes" of him as a young rapper. We're pretty confident that TMZ is already on the hunt.
