Robert Pattinson, who made a showy appearance on the red carpet of the Hollywood premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse earlier this week, made a pretty surprising admission in one of his interviews. When asked about the success of the English Soccer Team at the 2010 World Cup soccer tournament this year, R. Pattz confessed that he is actually rooting for the US Soccer Team instead:

Robert Pattinson might want to rethink his soccer talk after confessing he’s cheering on Team U.S.A. in the World Cup at the “Twilight” premiere in Los Angeles on Thursday night, June 24. The British actor was asked about the success of his national side England, who have joined the Americans in the last 16 of the tournament in South Africa and his answer will chill the hearts of fans back home. He said, “I’m kinda more fired up by the American team, to be honest. I shouldn’t say that. Jeez, that’s terrible.”

No, Roberto … that’s not terrible, it’s very sweet actually. I think R. Pattz is quickly becoming one of us … and I love it. While I sincerely doubt that Rob would go as far as to become a naturalized citizen of the US, I think the fact that he is throwing his soccer support behind Team USA is even a more devoted act towards America than going for citizenship is. Sorry Brits, I think he’s ours now.
