British retailer Marks and Spencer (M&S) has announced that they are creating a men’s underwear line inspired by Twilight star Robert Pattinson, who is known by fans as R-Patz.
Aptly called the R-Pant, the vampire-inspired slim-fit underwear collection of low-rise briefs and trunks are designed to be worn under skinny jeans and trousers, a look made famous by the likes of Katy Perry’s man Russell Brand and, of course, the man himself, R-Patz.

Michael Jackson’s untimely death has thrust the King of Pop to the top of search engine yahoo.com’s internet searches in 2009, ending Britney Spears’ four-year reign as the most-searched star.
Meanwhile, US President Barack Obama dropped out of the top 10 list.
Up until June this year, when Jackson died of a drug overdose, Mr Obama’s inauguration attracted the most web traffic, according to Vera Chan, a web trend analyst at Yahoo Inc.
“When the news of Michael Jackson’s death came out the traffic was overwhelming, and surpassed that,” she said.
According to Ms Chan, Jackson’s death, which made headlines all around the world, had all the elements of intrigue and tragedy. It was sudden, shocking and eerily familiar to fans worldwide.
“And then his case was ruled a homicide so it’s an ongoing crime investigation. His death is unresolved,” she added.
Breaking news stories increasingly drove searches this year. While Mr Obama dropped from third place on the search list in 2008 to 44th in 2009, the political focus shifted from the US election campaign to specific policies. The phrase “stimulus plan” placed fourth and “health care reform” was sixth among Obama-related searches.
When it came to finance-related searches, the words “coupons” and “unemployment” topped the most-searched list, which included “cash for clunkers”, “student loans”, “foreclosures”, and “government jobs”.
The economy “was definitely a distinction from the previous years, how much people are monitoring the financial situation,” Ms Chan said.
The overall top 10 is “often just a snapshot of our distractions, our guilty pleasures, and breaking news,” she added.
Spears, the singer whose personal meltdown has captured headlines for the past few years, dropped to fifth place in the overall list, just behind Megan Fox and just ahead of the Japanese magna cartoon Naruto.
“Britney was number one for four years in a row, and not all of those years were pleasant years for her,” Ms Chan said.
“For her well being, and for our well being, I think we’re happy that we don’t have to check up on her.”
Vampire saga Twilight came in second on the list, followed by WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), Fox and Spears. Naruto captured sixth place, with the reality show American Idol, Kardashian, NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) and the online role-playing fantasy game Runescape rounding out the top 10 list.
Yahoo accounted for 18 per cent of US online searches in October, compared to a 65.4 per cent market share for Google Inc, according to the analytics firm comScore. Yahoo’s search data is from the company’s dot-com sites only.

Without a doubt one of the most-anticipated red carpet moments of the year, the stars were out in full force at the premiere of Summit Entertainment’s The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Westwood, California on Monday evening.
Held at the Mann Village Theatre, the film’s stars, including Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz, all turned up to greet their screaming fans.
Joining Rob, Kristen and Taylor on the red carpet were co-stars including Dakota Fanning, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Christian Serratos, Emilie de Ravin, Edi Gathegi and Jamie Campbell Bower, as well as author Stephanie Meyer and director Chris Weitz.
But the film’s big names weren’t the only stars of the night. Celebrity Twilight fans also turned up for the event, including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Emma Roberts, Julianne Hough, Joan Jett, 50 Cent, and Bon Jovi’s Richie Sambora, among others.
Due to hit theatres worldwide this Friday, New Moon author Stephanie Meyer recently spoke with Oprah about watching her work come to the big screen.
“It is crazy surreal,” Meyer said.
“The first time I met any of the actors, we had a dinner kind of just to get to know each other, and they had all been doing test shoots for hair and makeup and costumes all day, so they came in costume to dinner.
“And all of a sudden, Carlisle [Peter Facinelli] sits down across from me, and it freaked me out! It’s so weird. You have those moments where you’re so used to it, and then you’ll be sitting there in the cafeteria, and there’s 150 extras milling through a scene and who knows how many people involved in the filming, and there’s this huge crowd, and you look around and say, ‘This is all because I wrote that dream down.’ It’s very hard to process. … Weird.”
