"Robert Pattinson was spotted taking in some culture at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. While we love to think of Rob as the Renaissance Man, he was only at LACMA for a Vogue photoshoot for his upcoming film Remember Me. E!

Twenty Most Beautiful People of the decade

Interview Magazine has made a list of the Twenty Most Beautiful People of the Decade. Colin Farrell, Ashley Greene and Ryan Phillippe were included in the list.

1. ZAC EFRON

Before we got to him, the High School Musical star was the squeaky-clean song-and-dance Disney showpiece with the "surreal" beauty (as an admiring Robert Pattinson, no slouch himself in that department, once gushed). Now he's starring in a serious movie (Me and Orson Welles) that critics actually seem to like.

3. ASHLEY GREENE

With five films scheduled to come out in the next year, it's safe to say that Ashley Greene is riding the momentum from the absurd Twilight wave. The young vampire with the psychic abilities—she also has the power to make girls literally break down in tears in public—has already survived a sex-tape scandal, so that's out of her teen idol system. But how far into her own future can she see?

ASHLEY GREENE: "I grew up in a house that would be perfect to set a horror movie in. It was out in the country, right on the water. I'm glad I never got to see scary movies when I was young. Otherwise I would have imagined things coming out of the lake.

5. NATALIE PORTMAN

We've had her on our radar since she was the 12-year-old Lolita of The Professional. And somehow, her beauty has grown and grown over the past decade. Now 28, she's won a Golden Globe, earned a psychology degree from Harvard, devoted her free time to social and political activism, and looked better than Demi with a shaved head. She's even a vegan. Enough, really.

JAKE GYLLENHAAL: So, then, let me ask you this: If you could get into a time machine, to what place and period would you travel?

NATALIE PORTMAN: Well, right now, I’m very fascinated with 1920s Berlin. I mean, probably the more interesting thing would be to go to the beginning of civilization or precivilization—like polytheistic times. It would be interesting to see what came before modern religion and culture—what circumstances created the environment or the need for it. I actually felt like I was in a time machine last week when I went with Jay-Z to the Laserium in Los Angeles. —INTERVIEW FROM SEPTEMBER 2009

9. SCARLETT JOHANNSSON

Since that first shot of Johannsson in Lost in Translation, her throwback beauty has been bewitching us. The red lips against porcelain skin, the platinum curls, the breathy voice, the curves—she's Marilyn all over again, but brainier this time around. She can even sing, as she proved with her album of Tom Waits covers in 2008. Recently wedded to Ryan Reynolds and seemingly over being Woody's ingenue, Scarlett Johansson still remains the ultimate Muse.

10. ROBERT PATTINSON
A bit of Brando, a twinge of Dean, the Twilight star possesses that slightly strange alien quality that turns brooding good looks into the iconic. He has just enough edge to make teens and tabloids go into "crazed hunter" mode—have you seen Robsessed?—but also a disarming, slightly crippling self-awareness. It's early yet for Pattinson, but we're eagerly awaiting part two of his entertaining saga.

On life before Twilight:

"We spent the better part of a year just getting drunk every night... "I don't know if that counts as ‘struggling'.

19. JAKE GYLLENHAAL

Since Donnie Darko, he's shown himself to be an eager actor. From oddball neuroses (Bubble Boy) to the raw emotional center he cracked wide open in Brokeback Mountain, he's devoted himself to his roles. Even in action blockbusters like The Day After Tomorrow, he worked to bring an "artsy" element to the schlock (to the consternation of his co-stars). He's been the same way with love; in his relationships with Kirsten Dunst and Reese Witherspoon, he was the one who's all in. That kind of person tends to be the one with the most to lose—but all told, we like his chances.DAVID FINCHER: Have you been biking?

JAKE GYLLENHAAL: I bike every day. I never thought I would be somebody who devoted so much of their time to that type of physical activity.

DAVID FINCHER: Be careful—you don’t want to get so big you can’t fit into your suits. That’s what I first noticed in Rendition—this guy is pretty fit for a rendition observer.

JAKE GYLLENHAAL: Well, we were shooting that in the middle of a desert outside of Marrakesh, and I’d go running a lot. I imagine that as a director, when you’re filming, every possible second of your time is filled. But as an actor you have so much free time your mind wanders. Running is a really good antidote for a mind that tends to spin around a lot.
