'Twilight' star Kristen Stewart focuses on the movies, ignores the gossip
Quote:
Kristen Stewart was a bundle of nerves talking about “Twilight” a year ago. She’s far more confident these days as “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” gets ready to rise in movie theaters Friday.
“I think I’ve gotten a lot more comfortable with talking about myself. I couldn’t finish a sentence because I was so concerned about how it was going to sound, and I didn’t want to come across insincere about something that I really love to do,” Stewart says.
“I realized that instead or refraining from saying things, I should have said, ‘I put my heart and soul into this thing and I love it’ instead of the really logical, over-analytical reason why I love it.”
She had to get comfortable because Stewart and her fellow “New Moon” co-stars, especially Robert Pattinson, with whom she has been romantically linked, have become constant media fodder. She has been on more magazine and tabloid covers than the Octomom.
“It’s like a ridiculous show. Like a soap opera that seems real but you’re not quite sure,” Stewart says. “It doesn’t bother me. I don’t take it personally, because I’ve had so much experience it’s gotten easier to talk about the work.”
It has helped that the 19-year-old Stewart has had other acting jobs, which are a calming eye in the middle of the media hurricane. Along with filming “New Moon” and the next movie in the series, “Eclipse,” she also has made “The Runaways” with “New Moon” co-star Dakota Fanning. Her quirky “Adventureland” was released earlier this year.
