Kristen Stewart or ‘K-Stew’ as she’s come to be known, is the world’s highest paid actress and star of the mega successful Twilight films. At 22 there’s no wonder she’s smiling – although it’s a rare moment she’s captured with one.
She’s become somewhat of a reluctant style icon – she has a penchant for wearing Converse on the red carpet – and is also the celebrity face of French luxury label Balenciaga.
As teenager-in-love turned vampire Bella Swan, Stewart’s portrayal of author Stefanie Meyer’s protagonist made her a star, but being famous doesn’t exactly seem to sit well with the actress.
She’s well known looking sullen and subversive in red carpet photos and had this to say about it to Vanity Fair in 2012:
“If I took perfect pictures all the time, the people standing in the room with me, or on the carpet, would think, ‘What an actress! What a faker!’ That thought embarrasses me so much that I look like shit in half my photos, and I don’t give a fuck.”
Well, we like her honesty.
As one half of one of the world’s most famous couples with (ex) boyfriend Robert Pattinson, Kirsten has received more than her fair share of media attention.
All was over for ‘Robsten’, sadly, when Kristen was caught in an embrace with the 41-year-old director of her movie Snow White and the Huntsman Rupert Sanders, a married father of two.
After photos emerged of the pair, Stewart – publicly confirming her relationship with Rob for the first time – issued this statement:
“I’m deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I’ve caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I’m so sorry.”
Now that all five of the Twilight movies are finished, we wait to see what K-Stew does next and hope she keeps saying things like this:
“It’s not a terrible thing if you’re either loved or hated. But honestly, I don’t care ’cause it doesn’t keep me from doing my shit. And I apologise to everyone for making them so angry. It was not my intention.”
