Kristen Stewart is gracing the cover of Elle magazine this month. Here are some highlights from the issue:
On the madness that has become her life:
“It’s insane! Once somebody finds out, you have to get the hell out of wherever you are. People freak out. And the photographers, they’re vicious. They’re mean. They’re like thugs. I don’t event want to drive around by myself anymore. It’s fucking dangerous.”
On losing her privacy:
“Somebody knocked on my hotel room door and asked for a light, then said that they were a big fan. I was like, ‘Do you really need me to light your cigarette? How do you know what room I’m in?’ I can’t be by myself and I like being by myself.”
On her red-carpet behavior:
“People say that I’m miserable all the time. It’s not that I’m miserable, it’s just that somebody’s yelling at me…I literally, sometimes, have to keep myself from crying…It’s a physical reaction to the energy that’s thrown at you.”
On Team Edward vs. Team Jacob:
“I would never cheapen my relationships by talking about them. People say, ‘Just say who you’re dating. Then people will stop being so ravenous about it.’ It’s like, No they won’t! They’ll ask for specifics.”
I just admire Kristen for being able to take it all in stride without losing her composure. The bottom line, though, is that people should let her (and the rest of the cast) BE!!
She is taking in all the attention really well. Everyone shouting at you for you to look here and there to take a photo. And if your not smiling all the time, everyone thinks something is wrong. But who actually goes around and smiles ALL the time?
