London, May 9 (IANS) Actor Robert Pattinson wishes he could work just one day in a week so that he can get enough time for simple hobbies.

“My ideal job would be one day a week. When I first started acting, I’d get one job a year that lasted three months and then I’d do nothing the rest of the time but I’d have enough money to survive,” Pattinson told Elle magazine.

“I’d read the papers every day, get in a lot of DVDs. That was great. I’ve got simple tastes,” he added.

The 24-year-old star said he hates having to work out and does as little as possible if it isn’t necessary for a role, reports contactmusic.com.

“I’ll be going to the gym for four hours a day. I don’t eat at all except for protein shakes. But I don’t understand how you could maintain that all your life. After the scene’s done, I don’t work out again. It’s a ridiculous idea that you’re not a proper actor if you don’t have a six-pack,” he said.
