London, Nov 27 -: British actor Robert Pattinson has likened himself and his Twilight co-stars to the legendary rock band The Beatles.

The boy band attracted hordes of dedicated devotees, and the intense fervour around the group became known as Beatlemania.

And Pattinson insists the teenage hysteria around Twilight movie series is similar to the frenzied music fans of the 1960s.

"I don''t know how the Beatles felt but I imagine it was close to this. Very few human beings will ever get to experience the love we feel at Twilight events,” the Daily Star quoted him as telling JustJared. com. (ANI)
