‘New Moon’ Star Jamie Campbell Bower Dreads Seeing Himself Onscreen

Vilkomerson-JamieBower9HWho would’ve thought that the hottie 20 yr old actor turned vampire, Jamie Campbell Bower says he doesn’t like watching his own work.

“I hate that,” he told MTV News. “I don’t like to see myself up onscreen at all.” “They just won’t show it to me!” he joked, adding that he’s been so busy working, he hasn’t had a chance to catch the full picture.

“I closed my eyes and was like, ‘Oh, I just don’t want to see that,’ ” he laughed, adding that he couldn’t deal with seeing “me on the screen being a moron!”  “I saw a lot of me in the ['Prisoner'] character,” he said. “And playing Caius, there is none of me in there. I just don’t eat people! It’s nice to know. You’re safe.”

These guys are just too cute for words.  The entire cast is very sweet, appreciative, and humbled by this whole experience.  Jamie may not want to see himself on the big screen but I’m loosing sleep just waiting for November 20th.  Bower does confirm that he will have to suck it up and watch himself on the big screen soon, as he will be at the premiere in L.A. November 16th.  Check out the full story at MTV.com

[Thanks, Spectra!]

    So we have another Rob on our hands?

    maybe Jamie and Rob can both chill in the lobby together while new moon is playing....at least rob can have some company:)
  • Riss<3Twilight-TeamBELLA
    That's possibly the best idea I've heard in awhile. lol



    They can both hate on themselves together
    & possibly toss around some charming Brit wit.
    Someone has to be there to tape it though :)


    I don't we'll find a hard time gathering volunteers...
    *looks around*
  • cookies_unicornsforRob(nessa_)
    haha YES have them throw in some of that charming Brit wit!
  • FTW - Bring on Remember Me!
    Exactly what I thought: Another Rob

    I get it though. I don't think I would be able to watch myself trying to act onscreen either. Sort of that, you are your own worst critic thing.
  • He's got such purdy hair. I wanna sit behind him (straddled of course) and braid it.

  • one25centpeice
    Congratulations on your first first!!! I haven't had the pleasure yet of being first...

    Jamie is very cute, indeed. I can't believe he's playing a character so mean and douschebag-ish. I suppose that's why they call it "acting". :P
  • doggoneluvable
    wow thanks i love ur adjective of douchebag-ish. haha this "acting" is what everyone is waiting for in 2 weeks
  • one25centpeice
    Hale yes I'm waiting for it! All we saw of Jamie in the previews is "You ahlready know what you are going to doo, Aroh. Shess a liabiliteh"
  • doggoneluvable
    u know what. for some people that's just enough. the spoilers are everywhere and it's hard to avoid. i bet some amazing people on NMM have stayed committed to not seeing any of the extra tidbits
  • one25centpeice
    Yeah... I don't go looking for them, but if I come across one I watch it. I wasn't the same in twilight lol. I think I got a good half hour of film from scouring the internet. :S
  • doggoneluvable
    yea i feel the same actually. the first time i read the twilight saga was last summer and i didnt even realize they were making a movie. the videos have given away quite a bit of the key parts of new moon

  • TheHoneyBear
    omg justin gaston (aka miley ugly cyrus' ex boyfriend) tweeted that he thinks Kristen Stewart is "absolutely beautiful".

    he probably saw the Harper's Bazaar photos...

    But... eeeew. You have no chance in hell.
  • cclore ~ Team CW for BD
    So sweet!

    I'm sure you are gonna rock it, Jamie!
  • my alter eggo ♬♪
    It's normal to not want to watch yourself onscreen.......I sing & feel embarrassed just watching my performance back, but I do enjoy being on stage :)
  • Spectra
    Yay!! You bloggers rock! :)
  • IrresistibleLostCause
    i was already on this band wagon when Sweeney Todd came out
    ... i just didnt know the name of the band wagon.
  • cutesweetiezzz
    Jamie will do great as Caius!

    I can't wait!
  • MB [since 03/09] WOMP
    i can understand this perfectly. when i sang in church and i saw myself on tv the next week i would just die. i can watch myself act, but not sing. it's really the thing i'm self conscious about. i just wish it would go away but i did it cause other people apparently liked it.
  • SC~3rd_Wife(TeamSM)
    I think that's so strange, to love to be an actor but hate to see yourself on screen - but also very humble. Both Rob and Johnny Depp say the same thing.
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    I tell you... Rob is the next Johnny Depp, Jackson may look a little more like him but attitude wise and make women crazy wise it's Rob & Johnny that are a like. Oh my I need to stop.... I'm thinking of my 3 fave men all at once... my shamanties are going to be nothing but shreds by the time I'm done here. Johnny Depp has been the love of my life since I can remember ever having a crush, then along came Rob and almost gave me a heart attack with his breath taking beauty and Jackson with that everything I can't deny. Oh.. .I better stop again. PG Jenn, keep it PG.
  • Spectra
    Just wanted to say I love your new avi! ROFL!!!
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    Why thank you my dear lovely Spectra. Who better to advertise shamanties than our man Rob?
  • Spectra
    Do you have twitter?
  • TSO☠RespectTheMulletKittyMofo☠
    Fo sho! LOL. I just got one. @TeamSwitzOlturi come follow me. Muahahah. i'm going to take over the world.
  • Aww, he's too cute! He seems like he would be just a cool guy to just chill with.

    *pulls out supplies to make a Team Jamie flag*
  • Awwww!! H's just too cute <3. He's so humble; haha, Jamie your not a moron ^^. Not while this crazy fangirl is around at least XD
  • claracitti
    Poor Jamie Campbell..
  • What's wrong with u boys? Rob does the same...What if u were REALLY BAD actors?...Well, I must say, it's endearing....
  • HayleyLovesTheTwilightSaga

  • name200
