23 today! The gorgeous Twilight star is celebrating his birthday!

On this day 23 years ago the gorgeous Robert Thomas Pattinson was born in London... we bet his parents would never have thought that the little baby would be such a hot, hot, HOT actor!

Do you want to celebrate his birthday too? Have a look over our mini montage of all things Pattinson!

Birthdays wouldn't be birthdays unless there was some kind of embarrasment!

Check out this piccie of the cute little rob when he was at school - he went to Tower House Preparatory School in Richmond, London.

Fast forward four or five years, Robert is 12-years-old and is starting to make a name for himself... in the modelling world! Remember when we revealed this exclusive picture from back in the day when rob was about 15...

Click next to see how he went from dodgy modelling shoots to hottie of the century...

It wasn't until 2005 when Robert first caught our eye, he shared the screen with another Sugarscape crush, Daniel Radcliffe, in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire playing Cedric Diggory...

Ok, so we didn't take much notice of him back then. It was in Twilight that he caught our eye playing the irresistable Edward Cullen.

Since then we can't get enough of him on Sugarscape! Check out our top stories about the hottie next...

We can't wait to see the New Moon film that Rob is filming at the moment... we had a look on youtube to see if we could find some secret behind the scenes filming but it seems they are keeping a close reign on all the shoots!

But we did find this AMAZING fan made trailer of the film, we think it's brill - do you?

It's really good isn't it!

We also recently heard on the grapevine that Rob's turning from vampire to alien for his next role... check out the story here!

So all that leaves us to do now is wish the gorgeous Rob a very happy birthday!

Oh, ok, we'll show you one more hot picture, just for luck (and love!)
