Attention all Twi-hards, we have a vampire down! It is being reported by several sources that my beloved Robert Pattinson was injured today while filming scenes New Moon in Vancouver!! Before you throw yourself in front of on-coming traffic, he is fine. He will go on with the movie. He can still give good face.

According to reports, Sparklepants was knocked in the noggin when a piece of a metal billboard blew-off in a gust of wind.

Via The National Ledger:

“During filming of his upcoming flick, ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ in Vancouver, Pattinson had just started shooting a scene when a rogue gust of violent wind tore a heavy metal sign from a post. It shot across the location so fast no one even managed to shout a warning at Pattinson, who was just opening his mouth to emote when…WHAM!…the unguided missile smashed into the back of his head.”

Luckily, Pattinson is currently sporting his “Edward Cullen” hair which is full of hairspray and his natural eight layers of grease. His inability to frequently wash may have saved his life.

According to Mike Walker of The Inquirer:

“Rob dropped and then lay deadly still as cast and crew ran to help, sending out a radio call for an ambulance. Finally, Pattinson – looking like he’d had the blood sucked from him – began moving feebly, disoriented, but able to speak. The crew put ice packs on a knot sized lump, and by the time medics arrived, the star was coherent and insisting he was fine.”

Not only is Sparklepants suffering from a knot on his head, he is also offending several of his “New Moon” cast mates and crew members due to his poor hygiene.

Via E! Online:

“He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy. He completely reeks.”

Pattinson was given the rest of the day off and was sent back to his hotel to rest. He continues to wait there for his private nurse who will arrive in a little over a week (wink!). Don’t worry, she will give him a nice spongebath.

UPDATE Via The Dame: Pattinson got wind of the injury story and quickly denied the accident and being smelly.

Moviefone: You know the same thing went around about Zac Efron a while ago; that he doesn’t shower.

Robert: Really? He looks like he smells really good [laughs]. I also do shower.

How often he showers is another question entirely. He went on Jay Leno shortly after “Twilight” released and talked about how he woud go for weeks without a shower.
