    The actor looked markedly different as he accepted an award for latest movie Water For Elephants

    It was a successful night for Robert Pattinson - not only did he pick up an award for Favourite Dramatic Movie at the People's Choice Awards but he also debuted a new shaven do'.

    Long gone are the floppy locks infamous with his Twilight character, vampire Edward Cullen, instead, he's now opted for a no-frills shaven cut.

    Though his new buzz cut will be a shock for some fans, it's far less controversial than the half-shaved look he tried out for new film Cosmopolis back in July - we're still shuddering at the thought!

    The 25-year-old actor skipped the red carpet at last night's ceremony at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, but looked pleased as punch as he accepted his award.

    On picking up the gong, he said: 'Thank you very much. I don't know why they asked me to accept it because it's really a lot of other people as well.

    'When I was doing this movie, I was having so much fun doing it that I was saying to everyone I didn't even care if anyone saw it.

    He added: 'But now that people have seen it and they're giving awards for it, I'm even more thankful for the whole experience, so thank you guys very much.'

    Water For Elephants, also starring Reese Witherspoon, beat off competition from movies The Adjustment Bureau, The Help, Limitless and Moneyball.
