Caught this via Black Voices and...ummmm....huh?

During an interview with Details magazine, Pattinson sat down with Jenny Lumet, a black journalist, and made some comments that just didn't make any sense. The dialogue between Pattison and Lumet went as follows:

Details: Rob, did you know that every time you say actor or acting you lower your voice to a whisper?

Rob: (He's genuinely startled.) "I do?"

Details: Yes, so quietly it's like you're saying Negro.

Rob: (He laughs, lightens up.) "What if we were acting' like 'Negroes'? Then we'd be f*cked -- we couldn't hear anything. . . ."
Again.

Huh?
