Billie Joe Armstrong: RPattz Fan
April 17th, 2009
It’s no secret that there are hordes of fanatical devotees of Twilight the movie, who lust after and dream about Robert Pattinson on a daily basis. But the hunky Brit, who, coincidentally is an actor playing a part and not really the perfect vampire boyfriend, has fans in some other, more unexpected quarters.
Green Day frontman, Billie Joe Armstrong is one of those fans you might not expect. When asked who he’d want to play Gloria and Christian, the main characters from the band’s new album 21st Century Breakdown, Billie Joe tells Spinner.com that Rpattz is the one for him.
"The girl that played in Juno [Ellen Page] – I think she could be Gloria," he tells the site. "And Christian, I’m gonna say maybe that kid in Twilight [Robert Pattinson]. He’s a good actor. There’s still more to come with that kid."
Sounds good to us!

Miss Green Day? Like musicals? Head out to the Berkeley Repertory Theater in California this September – the band’s American Idiot album has been adapted into a new musical production.
From Sept. 4 – Oct. 11, fans will get a chance to witness the collaboration between the band and Michael Mayer, the Tony Award-winning director of Spring Awakening.
“It doesn’t make a lot of sense,” Green Day singer Billie JoeArmstrong tells the New York Times of the partnership in a telephone interview. “But that’s what I love about it. When people see it, it’s going to be my wildest dream.”
So could the rocking musical be heading to the Great White Way someday?
“American Idiot could certainly make it to New York one day. There might be some fantastic found space where this really wants to live,” Mayer says. “Or it might live in a beautiful, big Broadway theater.”
