Kristen Stewart on her acting range: ‘I cannot be anyone other than who I am’

Here are some photos of Kristen Stewart out and about in LA over the weekend. She stopped by a friend’s house and then she and a few girlfriends went out to lunch or something. I looked through all of the photos and I’m pretty sure one of the girls is Alicia Cargile, who may or may not be Kristen’s on-and-off girlfriend. I don’t know. Star Mag says Kristen and Alicia dated (or are dating). The official line, I suppose, is that Kristen may have gotten too close to Nicholas Hoult while filming Equals in Japan, but God knows. It feels like the first thing Kristen did upon returning to LA was go to see Alicia.

In other K-Stew news, Elle released their full September cover story online. We covered Kristen’s cover and interview excerpts here. You can read the full piece here – there’s SO MUCH ass-kissing, it’s not even funny. The Elle writer compares Kristen to Angelina Jolie and Elvis Presley. No joke. What’s really funny to me is that the interview takes place mostly as Kristen is driving around the Elle interviewer… in a Mini Cooper. Apparently, Kristen drives her mom’s black Mini Cooper sometimes, which makes me wonder… did Kristen Stewart bang her married director, Rupert Sanders, in her MOM’S CAR?! That’s so hardcore, Kris. For a 16 year old. There are also some additional quotes I wanted to pull:

Why she doesn’t like to make eye contact with strangers: “Because then you’re letting them in. But at the same time, you’re like, What, I don’t want to let anyone in? And, honestly, I’m super real with people. Incredibly. If someone’s really cool and nice and just wants to talk, I will f–king hang out and chat all day.”

Handling fame in the early days of Twilight: “I hadn’t carved out my spot, and people hadn’t gotten used to me yet. It was really f–king hard. I didn’t interview well. I was really nervous. People f–king didn’t respond that well.”

On her limitations as a dramatic actress: “Some people try to do that thing where you craft a character. I cannot be anyone other than who I am. If I can’t empathize with something [my character] does, it’s a problem. And sometimes I’ve had directors be like, It’s not you, Kristen, it’s the character. And I’m like, That’s the laziest thing you can possibly say to me. It is me. It’s definitely me.”

Sigh… so hardcore, Lip-biter. To me, saying “honestly, I’m super real with people” is the kind of thing snotty a—holes say to make themselves feel better. What, I’m just being SUPER REAL with you. You don’t get how super real I am. And I really don’t get her train of thought on her limitations as a dramatic actress – “That’s the laziest thing you can possibly say to me”??? Really? Is it lazier than getting paid millions of dollars to get typecast as an awkward lip-biter because you have the dramatic range of a wood splinter?
