Actor Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga, was asked the dreadful question “Team Edward or Team Jacob?” and, surprisingly, he offered a honest answer. Of course Peter is Team Edward!

Peter Facinelli’s Dr. Carlisle Cullen Named The Worst Vampire Ever

The 36 year-old defends his “son”, but confessed that even if he had no ties to Twilight he would still be Team Edward because Robert Pattinson is an incredible actor and the idea of eternity is something that fascinates Peter.

“I’m Team Edward, because he’s my son and I like to keep it in the family,” Peter said. “If I had no association with the films, I’d still be Team Edward. There’s something interesting about living forever, having that eternity.”

Peter is a fan of the Edward Cullen character and he only regrets he is not young enough to take on a role like that. Yeah, Peter would love to play the hopelessly romantic teen vampire.

“If I was maybe 10, 11 years younger – what is Rob like 24? – I’d like to play Edward, But the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree so it’s pretty cool playing Carlisle,” says Peter.

When asked about what is like working with the one and only R-Pattz, Peter jokingly said, “He’s a cool guy, very professional. He’s always thinking, he’s very intense and he’s fun to hang with,” Facinelli said, jokingly adding, “I wish he’d bathe once in awhile. I’m kidding! Those are all rumors; I don’t know where they start those.”

Perhaps the rumors start with comments exactly like those, Peter! For your information, I know from a secure source, whose identity I cannot reveal, Robert smells wonderfully. And he does shower!

Actor Peter Facinelli, best known for his role as Dr. Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga, was nominated the “Worst Vampire” by film critic Peter Travers in Rolling Stone Magazine. WHAT?? NO! Peter is incredible!!

Mr. Travers said about Peter’s vampire character, “Facinelli is a solid actor, but playing Carlisle Cullen, the white-haired head of the fang-challenged Cullen vampire family, he looks about as terrifying as ‘Project Runway’ winner Austin Scarlett, whom Carlisle closely resembles.”

LOL! Austin Scarlett?? Oh, I think I see a resemblance. I digress! Carlisle is certainly not the worst vampire ever… I can’t really name a “bad” vampire at the moment, but Carlisle is totally acceptable as a vampire who wants to preserve his humanity.

Anyway, Peter was honored with the nomination and responded via Twitter. Peter tweeted, “Thank you Mr. Travers. As Carlisle is a compassionate humanitarian, and anti-vampire in nature, being the worst vampire was quite the compliment. Although, you had me at “solid actor”. I did find the comparison to Austin Scarlett utterly ridiculous though … He has way better cheek bones.”

Double LOL! Peter, we love you!!

Dr. Carlisle Cullen is a man of his word; both the character in the ‘Twilight’  series and the actor who portrays him: Peter Facinelli. Facinelli recently made a bet with his friend Rob DeFranco that he could get 500,000 Twitter fans following him. In winning the bet, the actor was able to get DeFranco into a very embarassing situation on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles.

Rob DeFranco paid off his end of the bet too when he was forced to dance down Hollywood Blvd. Tuesday morning wearing a bikini and singing “Single Ladies,” a fate chosen by his “sick and twisted Twitter followers,” Facinelli said, adding, “who I love dearly.”

The ‘New Moon’ actor also spent the afternoon signing autographs at the store Affliction in LA and in turn, the clothing store donated $100,000 to The Christopher Reeves Foundation on behalf of all the Twitter Facinelli followers. Nice thing for Facinelli, DeFranco and Affliction to do.
