Kristen Stewart is “selfish” & she calls Sparkles “my boyfriend” finally

ks5

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.”

[From Hollywood Life]

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.

    I think the photos are still a little awkward and forced – well, except for that last one, that one’s actually pretty

  2. Rachel says:

    shut upppppp

  3. celine says:

    i agree akward photos,…..akward person sry i still don’t like her and she better starts being nice to her fans cuz her light will go down very soon otherwise.

  4. ladybert62 says:

    I dont understand why people think she is pretty – I think she is average looking at her best.

  5. Runs with Scissors says:

    Sounds like the interviewer called her on the phone and then said, by the way, the interview has started.

    She’s just saying she wants to keep some things private. Her relationship with her boyfriend IS hers.

    I think she bristles at the media’s attitude that we all DESERVE to know what she names her child, etc. That she somehow OWES us that and we can snap our fingers in her face and demand to be let into her personal life.

    I don’t blame her one bit.

  6. podzol says:

    Stewart looks smashing in these photos (this is coming from someone who’s always found her underwhelming). It has that same Megan Fox/Armani cosmetics sexpot vibe in the 1st pic.

  7. imabrat says:

    Well, at least she’s not a fame seeking ho.

  8. OhYeah says:

    ^^Agree with you RunsWithScissors. I love the idea of Kris and Rob as a couple and i think, as a young woman in such a difficult industry which swallows up people whole, i want to root for her success. So whatever path she wishes to choose to navigate her way through it all, i support her. i think she’s beautiful, brave and deserves her good fortune.

  9. N.D. says:

    I think it’s not her poses that make them awkward but those weird ugly swimwears or whatever they are.

    And I totally get her attitud toward the gossiping public & media – the sense of entitlement we’ve developed regarding celebrities private lifes is unhealthy as hell. Being ridiculously cryptic and secretive is about the only thing she really can do about it. Apart from leaving the business altogether.

  10. Iheartlasagne says:

    I love that green swimsuit! Could anyone try to find out the designer? I haven’t found it online so far…

  11. Sloane Wyatt says:

    That close up of Kristen is gorgeous, and I loved her in “The Runaways”. She is the anti Lyndsay, not clubbing and degrading herself. I think Kristen is a self possessed, confident professional, and I look forward to more of her work.

    I’ve never seen any of the Twilights – tried, but I couldn’t go more than 20 minutes.

  12. Elaine says:

    That is a really great interview of her. I totally understand her point about keeping things private especially in the Hollyweird world of Kardashians where everything is broadcasted that it makes you puke your dinner.

    Finally there is a confirmation of their relationship already so that haters can just shut the eff up.

    Now I understand that this is the reason why “My boyfriend is English” is trending in twitter all morning.

  13. Emma says:

    Wow, she is tiny.

  14. Ell says:

    Love that first pic. People need to remember she’s still very young, I’m sure she will evolve and become more comfortable with her fame as she matures.

  15. Nina says:

    Huh, I read the excerpt on another gossip website and it actually kind of made me like KStew and feel kind of bad for her. I’ve always been indifferent, not a hater at all like some some people but not necessarily a fan either. A small portion of the haters go way, way overboard. Not like, ugh, again but serious rage issues…Just read Ted’s Awful Truth sometimes and you’ll see what I mean. She seems to recognize that some of the fans are really deranged and write horrible stuff about her-the google part, the big deal part. That would suck knowing that there are people out there like that. Hence, my feeling sorry for her. Plus I get the thing about the relationship…she doesn’t really owe anyone anything, I can think of several celebs right off the bat who get away with not discussing their relationships, and it is weird that she always gets blamed for it and not sparkles. Lastly, the people who say she is not attractive. Really? She is a beautiful girl with great bone structure, the only way people would find her unattractive is if they fine Kim Kardshian some paragon of beauty.

    “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.”

    omgomgomg Kaiser, I feel the SAME WAY!!! Like the first time I watched Lord of the Rings and fell in love with Orlando Bloom, only I was a teenager.

    Dumb, high-school crushes are not as cute on 20-somethings, unfortunately.

  17. serena says:

    I like this photoshoot a lot!

  18. Lindy says:

    Y’all, I don’t think she means “It’s mine” as in, “Sparkles is mine.” Rather, she’s talking about the relationship itself–it’s something private which is hers and is not to be shared.

  19. Katija says:

    “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.”

    By the time that happens, Twilight will be long over and I doubt anyone will care what their kids name is. She will probably be dying to tell everyone during her time on Dancing With the Stars, actually.

  20. Nina says:

    @Katija…Wow, I get clever bitchy but that is just dumb. The girl is so reticent…like the least likely person to go on one of those shows. If you are going to be snarky, at least be fun and make some sense.

  21. Reece says:

    I don’t like that printed bikini at all! The others pics are nice.

  22. TG says:

    @Iheartlasagne – check out http://www.outfitid.com and they have the designer of her swimsuit. I think the top is from Eres and the bottom is from Louis Vuitton.

  23. Cherry Rose says:

    Even though I still think she is a horrible actress, I do think she is finally maturing. But that might be because she’s finally going to be done with the Twilight franchise, and will soon not have to contend with the super obsessed fans.

    I think that first picture of her in the red dress is stunning.

  24. WaywardGirl says:

    Awkward posing but she still looks pretty.

  25. Victoria says:

    I think she’s pretty, but overrated. Her acting choices are based on roles that are awkward boring girls…basically her. She’s playing Snow White which should shake things up a bit and I’ll decide then if I like her acting or not. As of now I am impassive. I’m just a Twi-Hard. Originally when the first book came out, I hated it. I stood in the book store and browsed the first four chapters and was like, “this bitch can’t write. WTF?” Five years later and feeling a little sad since my husband passed away, my stupid 25 year old self got bitten by the Sparkle bug. Stephanie is a bad writer, but she is a good storyteller, if that makes sense, and I got all wrapped up in the drama.

  26. Nymeria says:

    @ Victoria (#25) – I’m so sorry about your husband. I don’t know what else to say, as I obviously don’t know you, but you have my sympathy.

    I think I understand what you are saying about the Twilight series. The storyline is interesting, but the writing per se is just plain bad – as in, “The substance is willing, but the stylist is weak.” Did I get that right?

  27. Neocleo says:

    In the past I’ve had trouble understanding this woman when she speaks. She is inarticulate above in the interview and since she is quoted, I have to believe that’s what came out of her mouth. Even referencing the question doesn’t improve things. She would be doing herself a favor by sharpening up her speaking skills. That’s a really great way to avoid sounding and looking stupid in the press. That she hasn’t figured this out yet, and that she is not a stranger to appearing in public in front of press and reporters just serves to highlight her ignorance. It also demonstrates her continued immaturity and a distinct lack of brains. She stinks up the trailers and they are designed to showcase the film–can’t believe she’s any better in the movies and don’t care to find out.

  28. Angb says:

    Many actors are poor public speakers, and they don’t receive half the criticism this girl does. I think she’s great. Love the interview and pics.

  29. Katija says:

    @Nina

    Who are you, her mother?! A TON of the actors from major film franchises end up nobodies, because audiences can’t separate them from their characters and they were never that talented to begin with. Just ask Mark Hamill.

    If any of these Twilight kids are major celebrities in twenty years I’ll eat my words, but I doubt it.

  30. Faye says:

    She looks great here. I know a lot of people find her looks underwhelming for an actress, but I’ve always found her unconventionally lovely.

  31. NotEmo says:

    @Nina, embrace the irony in Katija’s post and don’t be so literal. You’ll be much happier.

  32. chris says:

    Rob and Kristen are a very cute couple. Love them and I hope they last.

  33. Quest says:

    This is probably one of her better photoshoots but it still looks painful.

  34. Victoria says:

    @Nymeria thanks. And you totally got what I was saying!

  35. akku says:

    Totally artificial and airbrushed. Still looks like a man in a bikini. She is criticized because of her lack of talent. She knows how hollywood works. She has a PR team that is stronger than any A list stars. They round the clock confiscate any article written about her and start their pro kristen propaganda. Now she needs to say that Pattinson is her boyfriend. Clearly when Rob tells people that she is his girlfriend this relationship is valid. He hasn’t said so. That means he considers her just a f buddy/mistress. The fact that the so called woman had to tell the press that Rob is her boyfriend is so pathetic. She is just trying to cling. He has so moved on after dumping her

  36. Jen D says:

    I think (from what little I’ve seen of her) that she’s a terrible actress, and I really dislike the Twilight fanchise, but of all the actors in those movies I hope she does the best. Her personality isn’t that bad – she’s just really awkward. I’d rather listen to her than some vapid twit who’s had coaching, like Olivia Wilde.

  37. Crimson & Clover says:

    @akku

    Oh please. If he came out tomorrow and talked about his “American girlfriend”, you’d still have a way to rationalize it away. They’re dating, get over it. Just keep in mind how young they are and that odds are, they’ll break up in the next few years and then you can have Rob all to yourself.

  38. Jenn says:

    I like Kristin and Rob together; they have a great energy. I think she has a right to be private, but goes way too overboard.

  39. Haters to the left says:

    Before Twilight, Kristen was, for the most part, left alone by the public and fans. She made her indie films, had her indie actor boyfriend and no one bothered to criticize, insult or attack her personality, appearance, elocution, acting, family, boyfriend, lifestyle, friends, etc. She made Twilight thinking it was just another indie film and had no idea the books were so popular because she had not read them at that point. But as we all know, Twilight became an enormous hit and catapulted her and Rob into super stardom status. It also didn’t help that Rob, in earlier Twilight interviews, was always going on about his massive crush on Kristen, how he only agreed to the audition when he heard Kristen was cast as
    Bella and how he followed her around on the set jokingly proposing marriage to her. Since Rob was already established as a desired heart throb after Twilight hit the big screen, this fascination with him and his feelings for Kristen just continued to grow…especially when they possessed such incredible romantic chemistry on the screen. As their romance blossomed, unfortunately the extreme fringes of their fanbase started to become obnoxiously vocal. It’s sad that Kristen has become a target for hateful attacks now just because she’s romantically involved with Rob.

  40. pato says:

    oh c´mon nobody thought twilight was going to be an indie film!!! the books were already a best seller.
    she´s so pretty. but I still don´t buy their relationship, it will be over the minute the last pic is out there.
