As a proud Hufflepuff, I feel it's my duty to protect Cedric Diggory, aka Robert Pattinson's good name.
Apparently, the most random TikTok videos of Robbie Patz are circulating the internet.
Except, it's not really him. They're deep fakes!
While funny, the videos are absolutely unnerving, like this one of "Pobert Rattinson" aka fake Robert dancing by a window.
@unreal_robert Hey TikTok! Who is gonna teach me how to dance? #robertpattinson #robertpattinsonedit #pattinson #dance

And this one of deep fake Robbie drinking a pink milkshake.
@unreal_robert ASMR. Something close to, at least I tried. #asmr #pattinson #milkshake

During an interview with ES Magazine, the real Robert told us how he actually feels about this creepy trend.
"It's terrifying," Robert said of the parody TikTok account @unreal_robert, which includes digitally altered videos with the actor's likeness.
"The amount of people who know me quite well and will still be like, 'Why are you doing these weird dancing videos on TikTok?'"
While the amount of dedication is impressive, The Batman star thinks, "It’s really bizarre."
"You just realize that we’re two years away from it being indistinguishable from reality — and what on Earth am I going to do as a job then?" Robert questioned.
Yeah, I'm sticking with team REAL Robert.
What do you think about the parody account?
