Heavy mob: Rob needs a gang of minders.
British star Robert Pattinson doesn’t go out in public unless he has five burly minders with him. He is scared by the number of fans he attracts in America. During a recent outing in New York, a crowd of Robsessed women accidentally pushed him into the road.
An onlooker told OK!: “If it hadn’t been for the quick-thinking of two members of his team, he could easily have been a goner.
“He was pushed off the sidewalk by the sheer number of fans who were trying to get close to him and fell against the door of a moving vehicle.
“If his clothing had got caught or a foot had gone under the car there’s no doubt he would have been dragged along and seriously hurt.”
He was filming scenes for his latest film Remember Me, which hits the UK on April 2.
The witness reported that he went as pale as his vampire alter-ego Edward Cullen. Robert, 23, is tipped to replace George Clooney as Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor.
Sources wonder what girlfriend Kristen Stewart will think of that.
