New
York,
(ANI):
Twilight
star
Robert
Pattinson
has
cropped
his
lustrous
locks
and
is
now
sporting
a
shorter
hair-do.
Pattinson
unveiled
his
new
look
as
he
appeared
on
The
Ellen
DeGeneres
Show
earlier
this
week.
His
new
cut
boasts
short
sides
and
back,
even
as
a
bit
of
length
has
been
maintained
on
top.
The
actor,
24,
however,
said
he
had
to
chop
off
his
hair
over
a
medical
problem.
"It's
three
days
old….
I
got
a
terrible
infestation
of
nits
and
had
to
shave
it
all
off," the
New
York
Daily
News
quoted
him
as
saying
on
the
show.
However,
Ellen
rubbished
his
claims,
saying:
"No
you
did
not…Don't
start
that
rumour."
It
is
believed
Pattinson
cut
off
his
brunette
mop
for
his
new
role,
a
Depression-era
drama
called
Water
for
Elephants,
alongside
Reese
Witherspoon.
