Kristen Stewart: “I don’t want to be like Angelina Jolie”
Kristen Stewart has admitted that being a movie star has been rather “bizarre”. She mentioned in a recent interview that “nothing about being a celebrity is desirable“.
The 19-year-old Twilight Saga actress claims that when people become “obsessive”, it weirds her out. Apparently, she didn’t understand the part where her contract came with fans, interviews, photoshoots, and obsession. Being in the Twilight Saga, I’m afraid you can’t really escape that world, Kristen.
Stewart mentions an analogy between being a vampire and being famous, “Edward is actually a really good parallel to fame. As a vampire, he has a sad, desolate life — fame is the same.”
To say you don’t like fame is different than saying you don’t enjoy being followed by paparazzi. If you don’t want the whole package, I guess you shouldn’t be in the field. I believe some, if not all, of her fame is contributed by her fans.
Good luck Kristen, make sure your public image doesn’t completely ruin your characters for the fans. It’s why you’re acting, right? For the fun, the fans, and the fanatics.
