Taylor Lautner was recently horrified when a middle-aged female fan tried to take off her underwear in front of him.

The Twilight: New Moon star - who was named Best Male Fresh Face at the recent Teen Choice Awards - says he tried desperately to avert his eyes when the woman began stripping off so he could autograph her undies.

"They had my name imprinted on them. So that was kind of strange. But you can't expect anything from these 'Twilight' fans."

The young actor is not the only star of the vampire film franchise to receive unwanted attention from fans.

Last month, Robert Pattinson was grabbed at by an over-zealous fan who was desperate for a hug as he made his way through New York's JFK airport.

Pattinson admits he sometimes finds the all fame funny.

"About a year ago I'd talk to girls and no one would be interested. Then when it was announced I would be in Twilight and everyone seemed to change their mind."
