Despite failing to raise a smile for 98 per cent of the time when she’s out in public and surrounded by adoring fans, Kristen Stewart reckons she loves meeting people and really fancies making more friends.
She told this month’s Elle magazine: “I’m pretty good at [repelling people]. Though actually I love people. I would like to meet more people. I know no one.”
Here’s an idea, Kristen, rather than attempting to ignore all the people screaming your name every time you walk down the street, why not turn around and say hello? That seems like a pretty easy way to meet people to us.
Kristen also opened up about how she finds life as a role model and fashion icon – not that she’d ever admit to being one or the other, mind.
She said: “I don’t say I’m not magnetic to try and sound self depreciating. I’m just not.
“I feel like a role model is not necessarily someone you want to imitate, just someone you admire. I don’t apply it to the choices I make.
“I just wear very functional clothes. When I’m in London I feel so dressed down and young and Californian.
“Even if I try to look nice when I go out for dinner, I just don’t have that thing. I will always wear no socks and be like ‘F***, it’s freezing, what am I doing?’”
We’d give up all of our socks to look young and Californian in the city.
Kristen added that she didn’t feel stylish at school either, with her lack of dress sense ensuring she wasn’t part of the cool crowd. The 22 year old said: “It’s weird. At school I was torn apart for not wearing a certain brand of jeans. It nearly killed me. I was so embarrassed and so insecure, but I knew I could never put them on. I would look ridiculous.”
And despite avoiding the ‘cool jeans’, Kristen didn’t really fit in when it came to class (that’s American for lessons) either. Speaking about her teachers, she said: “When I said they literally failed me, I meant that they literally failed me. As in, I got Fs!”
She should buy the school with her millions and sack everyone for a bit. You know, if it was legal and not morally corrupt.
And Kristen finished the Elle interview by describing herself (you know, apart from being a real people person). She said: “I really like what I do. I really love what I do. I think the most interesting part of me, literally, is what I do.”
Yeah, that and your boyfriend R-Pattz.
