I’m just going to briefly pretend that CB didn’t use last night’s Breaking Dawn premiere photos for the lead link yesterday, because I’d really like to talk about them. The premiere was in London, and I think it was a much better showing for everybody involved. I really liked Kristen Stewart’s Roberto Cavalli gown – sexy, pretty, well-made. In retrospect, I dislike that J. Mendel dress even more. I like Kristen’s styling much better here too – her hair is much prettier, she seems less awkward, and she and Robert seem almost sweet together. Also: she posed for photos in heels and then she went somewhere, changed into her Converse and did more red carpet stuff. I don’t know how that works – does she go inside to change her shoes? If it’s that big of deal, why not do the whole red carpet in your sneakers? Anyway, since we’re currently being sold this grand love story, it helps if the two leads are actually loved up and the studio can sell that too, right?

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart might not officially be married but they definitely act like it! A new report in Us Weekly says Rob, 25, and Kristen, 21, tell their friends that they already feel like “an old married couple” because they spend their free time watching documentaries, reading and cooking huge meals!

Not to mention that the pair’s romance has been going strong for at least two years, they spend as much time together as their demanding schedules allow and neither has any interest in ever dating anyone else.

“They go to Kristen’s parents’ house and make big meals,” a source says. “Everyone helps cook. Her mom and dad welcome him as if he’s their own. They crack to everyone that they feel like an old married couple.”

Then why hasn’t Robsten already walked down the aisle like their co-star Nikki Reed who married Paul McDonald in October?

“Rob would have married her like yesterday,” the insider says. “But she is happy with the way things are.”

In 2009, Kristen mentioned in an interview that she didn’t want her engagement ring to look like Bella’s, saying a “huge rock” was not her style. “Rob was sweet and said something like, ‘I’ll make a note of that!’”

And when Kristen and Robert filmed Bella Edward’s wedding, Pattinson “could not even remember the vows,” Kristen says. “I think he was kind of nervous.”

I’m tired of this story line, and I think it’s changed too. While I used to think Sparkles was the one who wanted commitment and wanted to be more public with Kristen, I actually think he’s just tired of everything to do with this franchise, including his girlfriend. Now, I’m sure they’re still together, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he had gotten close to her family and that Kristen and Robert really do act like an “old married couple”. But that also means that they might have lost some of the spark, you know? I still wonder if they’re even going to be together after the promotional tour for Breaking Dawn Part 2 – which means they have to wait it out for another year? What happens if they break up before then? Would the studio freak out?

Oh, and Pajiba has a lovely piece on Robert Pattinson and why he’s a lovely dude despite this awful franchise – go here to read it.

Here are the real stars of last night’s Breaking Dawn premiere, the most photographed actors on the red carpet, real-life and on-screen lovers and the objects of desire, fanaticism and loathing: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Let me start with Kristen. She wore this blue-purple-black J. Mendel that I’m not in love with. I don’t hate it, and I actually like the blue-purple color on Kristen a lot. The cut of the dress is kind of bad, and it looks rather cheap to me. I think it has something to do with the too-high slit and how hundreds of Twihards probably saw Bella’s vadge on the red carpet when she walked a certain way – what‘s with Kristen and her vadge-high slits and too-short miniskirts? Why is she determined to show us her biscuits? The slit is also bad because you can see a lot of the lining, and the material looks tacky and cheap.

Now I’ll say something nice – her makeup looks good. Her posture is improving somewhat. She’s still pretty slouchy, but she’s evolving it into a more model-pose slouch. And I love that ring she’s wearing on her left hand – it’s gorgeous.

As for Sparkles… he was slouching more than Kristen! I think because he’s so tall, and he didn’t want to tower over Kristen as they posed together on the red carpet. His suit was meh, his hair was a mess! I didn’t like her hair either – it was not a good hair night for either of them. And Sparkles really, really needs to work on not making those dumb expressions when he’s being photographed.

This was the friendliest I’ve ever seen them on a red carpet, by the way. Usually, they only pose together for a little bit and then they invite Taylor Lautner over so it’s a creepy threesome pose. Maybe it’s the time they’ve spent apart, maybe Kristen has just accepted that she has a cute British boyfriend, whatever it is, they looked more coupley than I’ve ever seen.

When I first heard about the dueling Snow White projects, my immediate interest was in the one where Julia Roberts was cast as the Evil Queen, in a film called…er… Mirror, Mirror (srsly?). Anyway, about a month ago a bunch of production stills were released from Mirror, Mirror, and they were so terrible I instantly became a bigger fan of the other Snow White project, Snow White and the Huntsman. SWATH (great acronym) stars Kristen Stewart as Snow, Chris Hemsworth as the Huntsman and Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen. Well, the teaser trailer for SWATH just came out and… hot damn, this actually looks like a solid movie. Do me a favor and watch this in full screen.

It’s kind of awesome, right? I like that it seems as if Charlize is THE STAR of the film and K-Stew is just playing supporting, although I doubt that’s the way the film really is. This is just a teaser trailer, after all. I’m sure in another month, we’ll see that Snow is really a sulky eye-roller and the Evil Queen spends most of the movie as a murder of crows. “Murder” is the correct word for a grouping of crows – isn’t that cool? This Wikipedia page is maybe the coolest thing ever. Anyway… yeah, this movie looks hella good.

Kristen Stewart has done a photo shoot in the latest issue of Vogue Italia. Now… I’m always up for a good K-Stew photo shoot. She’s an interesting magazine model because she’s capable of looking very different with wildly different styling. I know you’re shaking your head at me for that, but you’d be surprised at how few celebrity women really mix it up stylistically for photo shoots, and how often those women look pretty much the same in every photo. K-Stew isn’t like that – I tend to not care for her pictorials where the style is “romantic” and someone tried to make her look “feminine”. She’s much prettier and more interesting, in my opinion, when the stylist makes her look “harder” and more rock n’ roll. My favorite photo shoot from Kristen to this day is the one she did with Interview Magazine – go here to see.

It seems like Vogue Italia was trying to mix it up and make Kristen look like some dark, goth-glamour princess in this shoot. The problem? Her expressions are… not good. Since all of the little girls from the Kristen Fan Club come in and yell at me for even daring to mention that their heroine is a sullen, twitchy, lip-biting eye-roller, I’ll let The Fashion Spot do the dirty work:

Kristen Stewart got into some Roberto Cavalli, Alexander McQueen, Giles Deacon, Giambattista Valli, Armani, Chanel, and Blumarine for Vogue Italia, and even though it’s not like anyone could look bad in clothing that looks so good, the Twilight actress didn’t knock it out of the park.

KStew is obviously gorgeous, but here she’s sulking from photo to photo. She looks so stiff and sour she might as well be standing in an airport security line.

In the accompanying interview, she said that she “would love to wear more feminine clothes,” but in these photos, the “feminine” gowns might as well be Dementors sucking out her soul.

*coughcoughCOSIGNcough*

Here are more excerpts from Vogue Italia:

On her favorite fashion: “I’d love to wear very feminine clothes, but then, in the everyday life, when I’m in Los Angeles, at home, I’d rather be comfortable. Whereas, when I’m away, like in this case, I pack all kinds of clothes, for the evening as well, because I think that maybe I’ll get a chance to wear them.”

On her figure: “I’m naturally skinny. We’re all like this in my family, so I don’t have to exercise a lot or go on a diet. I do all the exercise I need on set. Right now, for example, to play Snow White, I never stop: I run, jump, fight with swords, horseride… I do all kinds of stuff! You see, I’ve even injured myself! But it’s nothing serious.”

On her acting philosophy: “I’m not one of those actresses that maniacally prepare themselves for a role. On set, I do whatever I need to do, but day after the day. If I have to improvise, I improvise, if I have to learn my lines by heart, I do it. There are certain screenplays which are so beautiful, that they only need to be repeated as they are, without any changes. I live in the moment.”

She’s “naturally skinny”. NOW. Wait until her metabolism slows down in her late 20s. Then it will be a different story.

Meanwhile, in a new interview with MTV, K-Stew totally got ahead of herself when she discussed Snow White and the Huntsman, which won’t be coming out until next year. She was asked what she would do if the Snow White film turned into yet another franchise for her, and she said, “Oh man, to be totally candid and honest with you, when I first signed on to this thing, the idea of doing another franchise was like, ‘Wow, [we'll] cross that bridge when it comes.’ It was something so far outside my realm of thinking. I was so focused on the first one, and I thought, ‘Maybe, maybe,’ but I’ve got stars in my eyes. I’m literally over the moon about what I’m doing right now. Yes, I would love to [do more 'Snow White' films].” Is it just me or is K-Stew worried about her career beyond Twilight? I think that’s what we’re seeing more and more as she promotes these two final films – she’s worried she’s going to sink post-Twilight.

For a few months now, while Kristen Stewart has been filming Snow White and the Huntsman in England, I’ve been loosely keeping tabs on how often Robert Pattinson visits her. It hasn’t been very often – he’ll come in for a weekend every so often, but mostly K-Stew is without her boyfriend as she works in England. This lack of being-stuck-up-each-other’s-bums has caused me to often wonder if they are close to shutting this romance down. Robert isn’t working right now – he finished production on Cosmopolis weeks ago – and he just seems to be hanging out in LA a lot. I would imagine that he’s taking meetings, hanging out with friends, and gearing up for Breaking Dawn promotion, but it’s weird to me that two young people aren’t spending more time together if they’re in a relationship. Isn’t that what being young is all about?

Anyway, Us Weekly has an interesting take on what’s REALLY going on. Hint: it involves K-Stew being cold and withholding and Sparkles eating it up like a masochist.

In real life, Bella and Edward’s roles are reversed.

Insiders tell the new Us Weekly — on stands now — that Robert Pattinson is “desperate for affection” from Kristen Stewart.

“He is always worried about her leaving him,” a confidant of the 21-year-old actress tells Us.

“She will blow him off, and it makes him crazy,” adds the friend. While Pattinson, 25, admits he’s eager to settle down, Stewart is far from ready to walk down the aisle.

A friend of both the Breaking Dawn stars chalks it up to Stewart’s youth: “Don’t all people her age play games?”

Do you buy this dynamic? I used to think this was what was going on, and I think Sparkles probably still feels like he’s the one more prepared to “settle down” – that boy seems like a nester. But I don’t think Sparkles is sitting around, waiting for whatever crumbs of affection K-Stew deigns to drop. At least, I hope he’s not.

Meanwhile, Sparkles has a new interview in The Guardian, which you can read here. I’ve done some highlights below – he’s as neurotic and charming as always. I love his interviews. He’s like a pasty, English version of Woody Allen:

The Mark Hamill Career Trajectory: “It’s like being compared to people who’ve been in massive movies who just sort of disappear afterwards, even though they probably had incredibly fulfilling and successful lives,” he says, nibbling on a fingernail. “Like Luke Skywalker.” He scratches his head. “What the f–k’s his name?” Mark Hamill. “Yes! People are like: ‘Oh, the Mark Hamill curse.’ And poor Mark Hamill. Jesus Christ.” He tilts back in the chair and laughs, apparently oblivious to the state of his T-shirt. “I mean, I’m sure he did fine.”

Twilight was his safety net: “In career terms Twilight was like a security blanket,” Pattinson continues. Then he furrows his brow for a moment and corrects himself. “Not a blanket – a safety net. I had a three- or four-month window between each one during which I could do another job. But whatever I did I knew that I’d have another Twilight movie on the way, which is theoretically guaranteed to make a lot of money. So I could always afford to fail.” Now the net is gone. The stakes have been raised. He once described choosing roles as “crippling”. “After the last one comes out, you can kind of have two failures – and they’d better be low-budget failures. Because if you have one big-budget failure you’re pretty much done in this environment.”

He admires Kristen Stewart’s career: “It’s different for Kristen, for example… She doesn’t think about it like that at all, because she grew up gradually, doing independent movies and stepping up the ladder, whereas I was doing progressively smaller movies in England, after Harry Potter… to the point where I was doing nine-day shoots for, like, 20p and a packet of Space Invaders. And then this happened. So I’m not just another actor who’s around and jobbing. When you hire me for a job, you’re hiring…” Twilight guy? “Yeah. I’m now this ‘thing’ that’s supposed to be something. And if you then don’t fulfill that expectation, what the f–k are you?”

Being cast in Twilight – and the audition was his first time with Xanex: Apparently he had the X-factor Hardwicke was looking for: as far as Pattinson was concerned, that X stood for Xanax. “I’d never had a Xanax before,” he says, looking guilty for a moment. “But I’d started getting so paranoid about messing up auditions all the time that I would actually mess them up. So I took like half a Xanax. And it went really well, so when I had to go and meet the producers I thought: I’m just going to take another Xanax!” He laughs and rocks his chair. “And then I went in and almost fell asleep.”

In the end: “If I do decide one day to stop acting, I just hate the idea of people going: ‘Oh, did you ever do anything else besides that Twilight thing?’”

[From The Guardian]

Poor Sparkles. I don’t think he’ll be Mark Hamill’d. I think after Breaking Dawn, he’ll have a few off-years where he gives solid performances in small films and weak performances in bigger films, and then the second wave will occur when he gets a good part that’s well-written and it will be his second big break. Now, Kristen, on the other hand. I have no idea what her career future will be, but it will be interesting to see if she’s still relevant in five years.

Yesterday, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were all on hand at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre to immortalize their hand and foot prints, in honor of Twilight. Kristen’s dress is Marios Schwab – why do girls wear super-short dresses when they know they’re going to be photographed squatting or bending over? I don’t get it. Anywa, I tried to find and crop some photos of Sparkles and Kristen looking at each other lovingly, but those were kind of hard to find. I suppose in addition to Kristen’s multitude of personality quirks and physical twitches, you’re also going to tell me that she OF COURSE has some kind of extreme light sensitivity, because in nearly all of the photos, she’s shielding her eyes from the sun, squinting unattractively or just closing her eyes. I would think that the sun was just really, really bright, but both Taylor and Sparkles managed to get through the ceremony without ruining every photo with their “light sensitivity”.

But! There are still enough photos of Sparkles gazing lovingly as his beloved for me to think that they’re still together. I don’t think they’ll stand the test of time or even last much longer than a year more, but for now, they’re still together. I had been wondering about their couple status because Sparkles had been doing Breaking Dawn promotion with Ashley Greene, and that girl looked like she was ready to jump on some sparkle-dong. That’s what Star Mag’s story says this week – that Ashley is trying to get with Sparkles, and Kristen “ordered” Sparkles to avoid Ashley like the whore plague.

While Kristen Stewart has been busy filming Snow White and the Huntsman in Wales, her Twilight costar has been getting close to her longtime love, Robert Pattinson.

“Now that Kristen’s gone, Ashley Greene is making moves on Rob,” an insider tells Star. The pair have been getting cozy while promoting Breaking Dawn: Part 1 abroad. And Rob isn’t exactly pushing Ashley away.

“His ego is getting stroked big time by Ashley – and he loves it!” says the insider, revealing that the on-screen brother and sister shared several intimate evenings together. “They have been on romantic dates, just the two of them. Ashley is forward – she made it known that she wants something more than a friendship.”

But Kristen isn’t turning a blind eye to Ashley’s advances.

“Kristen has warned Rob to keep his distance from Ashley and she’s furious with him for not obeying,” says the source. “Rob swears there is nothing going on, but Kristen is so upset that she’s saying she may dump him for good.”

I doubt Ashley is Sparkles type – yes, if we judge his taste in ladies from Kristen, we know he likes brunette bitches, which Ashley definitely fits. But we can also tell that he likes girls with some twitches, with some insecurities, which Ashley doesn’t have. Ashley is the closest thing to raw ambition out there. She doesn’t have time to twitch.

Kristen Stewart covers the December issue of Glamour UK, all to promote Part I of Breaking Dawn. Most of the interview is Kristen discussing the film and there’s very little of her talking about subjects that are often tricky for her – like the paparazzi, or her education (and lack there of) or whether Sparkles is officially her boyfriend. Kristen still curses up a blue streak in this interview (just like her GQ UK piece), but this is one of the friendlier pieces I’ve ever read with Kristen – meaning she came across as open, not so twitchy, and like she’s a reasonably well-adjusted young woman. Here are some highlights from the interview:

The sex scenes had to be re-edited so there wouldn’t be an R-rating: “It was so weird, it didn’t even feel like we were doing a Twilight film. I was like, ‘Bella! What are you doing? Wow! What is happening here?!’ It was very surreal. We [originally] got rated R. They re-cut it.”

More on Breaking Dawn: “It doesn’t get more action-packed… [But] they definitely get more physical. Well, they get married. We totally have sex – finally!”

Sparkles on the sex scenes: “I’m looking forward to the pillow-biting scene. I thought that was so funny. Of all the random things too do, really? He bites the pillow.”

Working out to prepare for the sex scenes: “Usually we all make fun of Taylor for working out so often, and then suddenly me and Rob were like ‘S***’ and were running around the block while Taylor laughed at us.”

The wedding scene: “I had to be shrouded in secrecy the entire two days of filming. It was crazy… I was on full lockdown, as if I was wearing millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds. It was one of those moments you go, ‘This is something to remember,’ and you want to put yourself in the experience so that it doesn’t pass you by. It ended up being great for everyone, I think.”

Kristen on her relationship with Sparkles: “It’s funny when this question comes up, because I sort of feel like, I don’t really care! People can say whatever they want…. [The interest] is totally understandable, but when it’s personal to you, it’s like your life becomes a product and I’m repelled by that. I don’t like to give away gems that people are gonna be like. ‘Oh my God!’ So I’ll always just shrug it off — in fact, I always find it kind of funny, and not just with Rob.”

On how she’s not as nervous as she was in 2007: “That’s a fair assessment. I don’t think there was much behind it other than I was young, and expecting it, and trying way too hard to be ‘not fake’. When I was younger, I’d look around and see these people, even people I knew, start to do an interview and become a completely different person. I was always scared of being like that. Someone would [ask a question] and you could see my whole thought process on my face. It’s like, ‘Hide that s–t! What are you doing?’”

On whether she ever Googles herself: “Not any more, man. I do like to look at what I wear, though. It’s not like I put on a f–king dress and don’t care about it after.”

On whether she prefers American jocks or British lads: “Well, I’m kind of repulsed by jocks from anywhere, so I have to go with the lads.”

On comparing London life to the States: “In L.A. you have to be fairly selective about where you go, but I’m so fine here. It’s similar to New York, in that people are doing their own thing and they feel like they’re probably cooler than you, so I tend to be able to get around very easily. We have bars, clubs and restaurants [in the US], but here you go to the pub for the afternoon and you have lunch. In an American publication, that would seem like, ‘She’s hitting the bars in London!’ but it’s just a different mentality here.”

On Sparkles being the Sexiest Man In the World: “The first time Rob was the ‘sexiest man in the word’, a couple of years ago, it was the biggest joke in the world. We never stopped taking the piss and neither did he. [But] they’re all great guys and not … geez, now I sound like I’m generalizing about attractive men, but there’s something a little vain about working out every single day, whereas they’re the greatest guys and all kind of goofy. That’s why it’s so funny.”

[From ONTD & The Mail]

I imagine she does like it better in England – there are so rarely new photos of her, and she probably is able to keep a lower profile, for whatever reason. I also like her admission about how she used to try so hard to be “not fake” in interviews. I would argue that she’s still that girl, though, but she is improving. Oh, and “repulsed by jocks”? Repulsed? Seriously? That’s a sweeping generalization.

As CB talked about yesterday, Kristen Stewart’s full GQ UK interview has come out. Last week, I had the earliest excerpts here and here (as well as the photo shoot), but what got the most attention was Kristen’s admission that ALL of her teachers failed her. Would you like some more excerpts from the GQ piece? Sure, why not. You can read the full thing here, and here are a few more excerpts:

On Breaking Dawn: “Yes, we’re finished. Filmed every scene… It’s so rare in a career to feel that a chapter is closing but there’s something final about this. No more epic, iconic scnenes…I was nervous for the wedding scene. When I looked at the set, with the pews and the lights, and I could see everyone was there in all their outfits, I cried. God, that f***ing dress! I was stuck in that thing for a week; I could hardly move. But it felt incredibly ceremonial. It felt like a real wedding.”

Her bodyguard: “The big jump for me, I guess, was having security. And I mean, going everywhere with you. Just a big guy standing next to me the whole time. JB is his name — that’s my guy. And he would kill me for saying this, but even he has a goddamn fan site. All these girls have identified him and he’s now known as ‘HBG’ — Hottie Bodyguard.”

On the craziness surrounding Twilight: “Sure. I mean, people are crazy. Everyone does what they have to do to protect themselves, but it would be fake for me to sit here and say people are not crazy. I’m sure lots of people shy away from this question as they want to make sure they look 100 per cent appreciative all the time and that everything is the most amazing thing always… But at the end of the line, people are f***ing crazy! I would have been very happy just working from job to job, paying my rent one movie at a time. I never wanted to be this famous. I never imagined this life for myself.”

“Her first proper role”: It was in the independent film The Safety Of Objects, originally an AM Homes book about dysfunction and turmoil in small-town America. Kristen played the tomboy daughter of a troubled single mother (Patricia Clarkson). “I got Safety… towards the end of that period where I thought I should keep acting. As a little kid, you audition for so many f***ing goddamn embarrassing parts — and my words would have been pretty much the same at that age too…”

On her expletive-ridden language: “I would be like, ‘No. Way.’ Which is why I never got offered very many of those roles. I would just go though the motions. Even while starting out I took things very seriously; I wasn’t the sort of kid that would do a doll commercial or do a series for Nickelodeon. They asked me to do silly things, and I wasn’t a silly kid.”

She‘s always been this hardcore: “It’s funny. I picked an old backpack out of the closet the other day, one I used to wear all the time as a teenager. It’s covered with anarchy signs, all these quotes and these metal studs. I was like, ‘Wow, you must have really liked how that looked!’ Despite what people think, I was such a rule follower at school. I loved the whole slacker look, like, ‘Hey, I don’t care, whatever,’ but if I didn’t turn my homework in, I would panic.”

On acting: “I don’t want to discredit people’s individuality, bit I think people are pretty much the same. People are very similar. If you have a good enough imagination then you can feel things that you personally have never done before. That’s acting.”

On pretensions: “I think when I was younger, I was trying very hard to sound unpretentious. At that age, I was so bitterly self-conscious, and so desperate not to sound like a total douche. I don’t feel like that at all now. I think it was something I heard my parents say.” Kristen’s parents work in the film industry, as crew members, solid blue-collar liberals, behind the camera. “My folks have always given me hell for how easy I have it,” Kristen admits. “My dad would say stuff like, ‘Oh, just go and sit in your trailer, practise your lines, and go lie for a living.’ It was something I said as a kid. Don’t worry, I have a much more pretentious view of acting nowadays.”

On working out: “I’ve never worked out before. Now I’m only allowed to eat stuff out of a box. It works. Also, I feel more energised and stronger. It took me a long time to realise that I was a girl as a teenager. At that point I never really believed it. I looked like a boy for a long time. Now, finally, I feel like a woman.”

I’ll say what I always say about Kristen: it’s takes a lot of thought and a lot of effort to be that self-aware, neurotic and “uncomfortable”. I think it’s just an act, her public persona, but feel free to disagree. In addition to those additional GQ excerpts, there’s also this expletive-ridden piece too:

You know this character so well, what’s it like to take her through this huge change when she becomes a vampire herself?
Kristen: It felt good. It was really weird. It was such a long process of the two movies being shot at the same time as if they’re one. You shoot, obviously, out of order and you keep going back and forth between pregnant, human and dead vampire Bella. There’s so many different versions of Bella in this, it’s insane. It was a strange experience walking on set the first time I played a scene as a vampire because I’d watched everyone around me doing it all the time. I sound so lame, but vampire Bella really is my favorite character—she’s very representative of a matriarch. She’s very intuitive on almost a psychic level and no one ever acknowledges it, which is interesting. Maybe that says something about Stephenie that she doesn’t get respect for all of her f–king amazing qualities. And that’s also one of the things that makes her appealing to me, so that’s not a strike at it—that’s something that I like about it. And I think it’s nice to see her finally get what she wants. That’s probably the best thing, even if it sounds simple and indulgent, which is why the f–king thing is criticized all the time. It’s nice to see people be happy. And she really—if I’ve played it right—is born to be where she is.

You’re shooting Snow White and the Huntsman right now which imagines Snow White as this warrior princess. What’s her fighting style like?
Kristen: Not to trivialize it at all, but it’s hard to play an action hero who is also the most compassionate person on earth. You can’t hate. You epitomize bleeding hearts, so how the f–k do you do an action movie like that? She is sort of the last shred of hope for her land. She has this ethereal, spiritual connection to her people—she really feels things-and so it’s like we don’t really feel empathy. I’ve had some f–king eye-opening experiences on this movie. I think that to truly care for something isn’t just putting yourself in that situation aesthetically and then going, “Oh my god, I feel so bad for them.” It’s truly not thinking of yourself at all. The way that you fight is that you must take out anything that hurt your people. Basically, I’m fighting evil—I’m fighting the most evil motherf–kers-and it’s fine that they’re being killed. It’s anguish. It’s literally f–king anguish. She takes absolutely no pleasure in ever hurting anything. I’m exhausted right now and I was thinking, “The fight stuff is coming up, maybe that won’t be so bad.” And then I realized that they’re probably going to be my most emotional scenes because I’m killing people and I’m Snow White. It’s a really f–king cool way to approach a movie where so many people die. Not that I’m criticizing violent movies—I love them, generally—but it is nice to do it this way.

[From Box Office Magazine]

I was feeling nothing but disgust at the idea of Kristen as a “warrior princess” version of Snow White, but then I saw those images from the other Snow White, the one with Unibrow McBusted and Julia Roberts. Now I’m kind of looking forward to Kristen’s version. And just a word about Kristen’s language… look, I cuss like a sailor too, but once again, Kristen’s “blue language” seems like a put-on. Like she’s doing it for a more “hardcore” effect, like a little girl who just learned those words and now thinks she’s all hip.

There are celebrities that Kaiser doesn’t like that I find relatively harmless, but I inevitably end up totally getting why she dislikes them. See: Jennifer Garner’s comments on motherhood, Amanda Seyfried saying her legs will never get fat, and now Kristen Stewart claiming that her teachers failed her by not preparing more work for her while she was off being a child actress. Yes, it was all her teachers’ fault for not doing more for her when her parents made her work as a small child. This is very similar to what Leah Michele said how her teachers were “too threatened by her to teach her anything.” At least Kristen didn’t call her teachers jealous, they were just lazy for not bending over backwards to accommodate her!

Actress Kristen Stewart has lashed out at her former teachers, insisting they “failed” to support her while she was away from class on acting jobs.

The Twilight star began performing when she was just eight years old, and balanced work with attending school before deciding to drop out of mainstream education in the seventh grade when she was in her early teens.

And Stewart tells Britain’s GQ magazine she felt forced to have home schooling because her teachers refused to help her catch up when she was working on location.

“School became genuinely uncomfortable,” she says.

“I was feeling a little self-conscious about the acting thing with my peers, but also my teachers became a problem. They didn’t want to do the extra work or put packages together so I could keep up while away.

“They failed me. My teachers failed me. Not one, but all of them. I’m always slightly ashamed in a way, about what I do. I’m slightly embarrassed as I had such serious ambitions when I was younger, I just never imagined that I would ever have a reason not go to school. But then this happened.”

Obviously this chick has some real issues that go back to her childhood. Instead of realizing that her parents had pushed her into acting when she should have been in the third grade, she’s blaming a bunch of teachers that had 20 plus other kids to teach who actually came to class. She doesn’t get that she was earning money and her parents could have hired her a tutor and/or personally put the work in to make sure she kept up with her peers. The mind boggles that anyone could be this clueless and entitled. I guess now that we know that she was made to work at a young age and that no one looked out for her education, it makes sense.

Finally! We’ve got some excerpts from Kristen Stewart’s cover profile in the November issue of GQ UK, which we previously previewed here. The Twihards are really excited about this one because A) Kristen is showing some skin and looking “girlish” and vampy and B) Because she calls Robert Pattinson her BOYFRIEND. That’s right! Little Miss Lip-Bite, the girl who caused a major kafuffle over at Vogue by shutting down Anna Wintour’s request to talk about Sparkles in exchange for a cover, says the words “my boyfriend” in reference to Sparkles in this interview. Praise Jesus.

In one of the most revealing interviews she’s ever given, Kristen Stewart calls Rob her English boyfriend! Plus, she talks about having babies and getting married! For nearly three years, we’ve watched Kristen Stewart‘s every move, using it as evidence she’s actually dating her Twilight co-star, Robert Pattinson. Now, in the British GQ, the 21-year-old actress accidentally slipped on the one secret she held near and dear: her relationship with the English actor.

While discussing her time in the UK, Kristen said she was excited to see more of the country because “my boyfriend is English.”

However, when the interviewer pushed her to elaborate, she got frustrated.

“I never would have said that if I knew you were going to be interviewing me,” she said. “Yeah, I know it is. So much of my life is so easily Googled. I mean, it’s like, ‘C’mon guys. It’s so obvious.”

She added, “But this subject, I don’t think you realize what a big deal it is for people. Well, it is a big deal. And right now, even me talking about it like this is a big deal. They would be, ‘Oh. My. God.’ There would also still be a 50/50 split. Some people would still be, ‘See, told you they’re not together.’”

Kristen went on to explain her rationale behind trying to keep her relationship with Rob private.

“I don’t worry about it at all,” she admitted. “It’s just one of those things. I’m selfish. I’m like, ‘That’s mine!’ And I like to keep whatever is mine remaining that way. It’s a funny little game to play and it’s a slippery slope. I always say to myself I’m never going to give anything away because there’s never any point or benefit for me.”

She continued, “I guarantee whenever I get married or have a baby, everyone is going to want to know my kid’s name and I’m not going to say it for ages. That’s just the way I want to do it. It’ll come out but it won’t have come from me. They’re going to be really p***ed off that I won’t say it and I’m going to say, ‘No!’ I also have that desire to blurt stuff out, but I’ve learned I can’t do that. Now when you realize the whole world is listening. That’s why perhaps I look so uncomfortable in interviews at times. I mean, we’ve talked about hiding things and I’ve had to get much more adept at that, sadly. But I’m glad I’m not one of those actresses who is just so ready to open up for everyone.”

First of all, I totally understand the whole, selfish, “That’s MINE” thing. I feel that with Michael Fassbender. That ginger bitch is MINE, and it upsets me when other people claim him as their own. Second of all, “I never would have said that if I knew you were going to be interviewing me” – she says DURING AN INTERVIEW. Oh, Kristen. Update: It seems like Kristen said the “boyfriend” comment separately from the interview – but at the magazine’s photo shoot. So… I still think she probably doesn’t mind that it’s out there.

Thirdly – that whole part about not revealing the baby’s name… I understand what she’s trying to say, and I find her whole rationale very Gwyneth Paltrow-esque. Goop and Chris Martin put so much effort into not being seen together, just as Kristen will put so much effort into being “different” and “private”. It’s not that Kristen (or Gwyneth, for that matter) doesn’t care what we think or knows we’ll never be able to understand her. It’s that she cares what we think and she’s sensitive about it.
