Well, according to OK! Magazine.
Devoted readers of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga know that Eclipse is the volume in which conflicted vampire Edward Cullen and reluctant virgin Bella Swan finally get engaged.
That means, of course, that at some point on the Vancouver set of the novel’s big-screen incarnation, Robert Pattinson will whip out a ring and ask real-life love Kristen Stewart, “Will you marry me?”
Life might just imitate art.
As if their millions of fans collectively willed it — the blistering-hot young actors are truly, madly, deeply in love. So much so that, as OK! reported last week, they’re spending nights together in Rob’s suite at the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre. And things have gotten so serious that on-set sources say the young superstars are even playing up their romance on set.
“If Kristen is looking for Rob, she’ll say, ‘Has anyone seen my husband?’’’an insider tells OK!. “And Rob loves to say, ‘Have you met my lovely wife, Kristen?’ It’s cute. They’re like a couple of love-struck teenagers.”
Amid intense are-they-or-aren’t-they speculation, Robsten had kept their relationship under the radar in recent weeks — but then burst out of the closet with an unabashed make-out session among legions of fans at the Aug. 15 Kings of Leon concert held in Vancouver’s GM Place arena.
But since that public PDA, they’ve been sneaking around after dark like — well, like a couple of vampires. “There are those subtle pats and glances on set, but they save the real kisses for after the sun goes down, late at night, when you see them disappear into their hotel,” another source tells OK!.
Why so shy all of a sudden? To paraphrase another sprawling screen saga (The Godfather): It’s business. Twilight’s producers have told Robsten to keep their love on the down low — at least until after the November release of New Moon, the second film of Stephenie Meyer’s series, in which Bella gets involved with hunky werewolf Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner.
It’s all about suspension of disbelief. The studio bosses “fear that if a romance between Rob and Kristen is confirmed,” the insider says, “Twilight fans won’t buy into the screen chemistry between Taylor and Kris.”

In less than a year Robert Pattinson has gone from “that handsome guy who played Cedric Diggory” in the Harry Potter films to the world’s most desired movie star.
But now, on the cusp of even bigger success with the impending release of New Moon and Eclipse currently being filmed in Vancouver, it may all slip away from R-Pattz, thanks to his recently accelerated romance with his on-and-off-screen girlfriend Kristen Stewart.
Because it’s not only his legions of female fans who might be disappointed to see Rob taken off the bachelor block by Kristen — there’s also the folks behind the Twilight films.
A real-life romance between the two would subvert New Moon’s entire story line, in which Bella falls for hunky werewolf Jacob Black, played by 17-year-old Taylor Lautner, and the studio brass want the Bella-Jacob spark to appear equally as plausible as the Bella-Edward relationship.
“The producers took Rob and Kris aside and told them to keep their relationship under wraps for a few more months,” an insider tells OK!. “But they’re so much in love, they can’t keep their hands off each other.”
It’s made life a bit of a pressure cooker for the two young superstars. “They’re crazy about each other, and they want to shout it from the rooftops,” says an Eclipse set insider. “But they’re also part of this massive machine called Twilight and producers have this thing timed with scientific precision. They don’t want Rob and Kristen to tell the world about their relationship until the time is right.”
Adds the source, “Rob’s whole world is Kristen. I’m surprised he even knows his lines because he’s so absorbed with her. He has no time whatsoever for his guy friends and has cut virtually everyone off so he can spend every waking moment with Kristen. He’s all about his woman.”
Regardless of whether he’s jeopardizing his career by moving toward marriage with Kristen, Rob is clearly ready and willing to take the risk. “Trust me; he generally does what he’s told by producers,” one source tells OK!, “but this kid has a strong will of his own, and if he wants to walk around Vancouver with Kristen in front of the world, he’s going to.”

Domanda: E’ vero che Rob Pattinson ti ha chiesto di sposarlo?
Kristen Stewart: Sì. Voglio dire, non so quanto fosse seria la proposta, comunque l’ha fatto.
D: Com’è successo?
S: L’ha fatto e basta. Abbiamo passato molto tempo insieme, soprattutto lavorando a ritmi molto elevati. Ci trovavamo spesso a essere molto stanchi.
D: Hai già incontrato i tuoi fan in numerosi eventi pubblici. Come hai vissuto queste situazioni?
S: Finora è stato tutto molto bello, ma anche in qualche modo travolgente, spiazzante. In un certo senso l’unico momento in cui devo fronteggiare i fan sono questi eventi, e dunque tutto ciò che devo fare è stare lì e cercare di sorridere e sperare di non dire qualcosa di stupido per cui potrebbero biasimarmi. E’ okay. Mi piace che loro siano così appassionati riguardo a qualcosa. Voglio dire, a me interessa il libro quanto interessa a loro.
D: Nella tua vita privata ti è mai capitato di essere “scovata” dai fan, che so, all’aeroporto o in un ristorante?
S: No, in realtà no. Forse una volta o due…è capitato che una ragazza venisse da me a chiedermi con molta educazione “Scusa, ma sei proprio tu? Perché i miei amici mi dicono che sono stupida e completamente matta…” e io ho risposto “Sì, sono io”.
D: Provi un senso di responsabilità rispetto a ciò che il libro rappresenta e a ciò che i fan desiderano da te quando fai un film come questo? E in che modo questo modifica la tua performance?
S: Sento una grande responsabilità nei confronti della storia in primo luogo, e anche nei confronti del mio personaggio. Se tu non interpreti ruoli che ti interessano davvero allora rischi di farli morire direttamente sulla pagina, e in questo modo nessuno avrà la possibilità di sperimentarli nel modo in cui tu li volevi. Quest’idea era molto più forte per me mentre recitavo dell’idea dei fan. Perché mentre facevamo il film io non sapevo ancora nulla dei fan. Era come essere in un tunnel, vedevo solo ciò che avevo davanti. E quelli della Summit Entertainment erano sempre così entusiasti quando venivano a visitare il set, erano tutti euforici, della serie “Non abbiamo ancora finito il film e voi sapete già come sarà?”. Penso anche che se teniamo conto del fatto che ognuno ha una sua idea del personaggio, e che la gente tende a proiettarsi dentro di esso, allora penso che il pubblico non veda il mio personaggio come qualcosa del tipo “Wow, ecco un personaggio nel quale posso affondare i denti”. Cioè, lei è una sorta di veicolo attraverso il quale lo spettatore sperimenta la storia. Da questo punto di vista non penso che riuscirò a soddisfare davvero qualcuno, nel vero senso della parola. Questo perché il mio non è un personaggio così definito. E’ solo una ragazza che rimane impigliata in una situazione strana e insolita.
D: Nel libro, Bella è un personaggio è un personaggio piuttosto passivo perché così il lettore sperimenta la storia di Edward attraverso di lei, ma nel film non può andare allo stesso modo perché lei è lì e deve vivere di vita propria.
S: Esatto. Anche se non riesco a pensare a quello perchè allora sarebbe davvero inutile e finirei a pensare cose del tipo “Ehi, spero che il mio personaggio piaccia alla gente”. Questo non mi importa così tanto, finchè riesco a calarmi dentro la storia.
D: Ci sono state molte discussioni all’interno dello staff a proposito di un tuo accordo per interpretare una serie di film su Twilight?
S: Ero già pronta a seguire la serie per tutta la sua durata. Mi piacerebbe molto fare il secondo, il terzo e il quarto film di Twilight. Ripeto, era una responsabilità che mi era chiara fin dall’inizio. Io riesco a fare un film solo se mi sento totalmente attratta dalla parte, altrimenti va a finire che mi sento fuori posto in ogni inquadratura.
D: Perciò non hai avuto alcuna esitazione nel fare parte del progetto e possibilmente identificarti con questo personaggio per un po’ di tempo?
S: No. Sia che il film sia un flop, sia che sia un gran successo, sarò pronta a farne parte. I casi sono due: o questo film mi spianerà la strada e mi renderà più facile portare avanti il mestiere che ho fatto negli ultimi 10 anni, oppure mi lascerà col sedere a terra e continuerò semplicemente a fare le stesse cose che ho fatto in tutto questo tempo, vale a dire piccoli film indipendenti che nessuno vede. Perciò no. Nell’ultimo film che ho fatto prima di questo vestivo i panni di una ragazzina senzatetto, una ragazzina disadattata e piena di problemi che non assomiglia per niente a Bella. In effetti, la ragazzina è una spogliarellista. Perciò non sono preoccupata al riguardo, e non lo sono mai stata.
D: Ci parli un po’ di com’è stato lavorare con Catherine Hardwicke, di qual è il suo metodo di lavoro?
S: Catherine è una persona davvero difficile da riassumere in poche parole. E’ molto eccentrica. Quando la incontri per la prima volta pensi “Wow, sei matta”. Voglio dire, io adoro questa donna. E’ una persona che ha delle cose da dire. E’ difficile, perché tutte le cose che sto dicendo verranno scritte e probabilmente verranno interpretate in modo diverso, ma lei ha un che di fanciullesco nel modo in cui riesce a comprendere le emozioni più importanti e basilari. Non è una che complica le cose. Lei le prende semplicemente per come sono. A questo punto uno potrebbe pensare “Wow, allora sei una sempliciotta. Una che non capisce le cose in profondità”. Ma non è così. Lei capisce benissimo le cose complicate, ma risolve le complicazioni e le elimina, tornando a concentrarsi sulle cose davvero importanti. Inoltre ha entusiasmo da vendere. Lavora 24 ore al giorno per 7 giorni alla settimana ed è sempre lì con te, in ogni momento.
D: La storia di Entertainment Weekly ha fatto pensare che Rob fosse ossessionato dal ruolo e che siete stati tu e qualcun altro a dovergli parlare per convincerlo tornare alla realtà. E’ vero?
S: Sì. E questo è stato davvero perfetto per la parte. Cioè, è proprio per questo che quel personaggio doveva interpretarlo lui. Perchè quando sei nella location dove si gira, sei come isolato, inoltre noi avevamo questo grandissimo cast formato da attori. Perciò non è come dire semplicemente “Oh, stiamo facendo questo film”. Anche quando tornavamo a casa alla fine della giornata, ovunque andassimo a rilassarci, le cose ruotavano sempre e comunque attorno al film. Perciò eravamo un po’ tutti così, ma Rob era davvero…cioè, non avremmo potuto girare nemmeno una scena senza di lui. Era come dire “Non riusciremo a concludere nulla se non ti calmi un po’”. Percio, sì, certe volte ho dovuto farlo, ho dovuto riportarlo a terra. E lui mi ha odiato per questo. Il problema è che ogni volta che gli dicevi “No, sei davvero bravo” lui rispondeva “No! Pensi che io abbia bisogno di queste rassicurazioni?” e allora io ribattevo “No. Sono semplicemente onesta perché mi piace quello che sta venendo fuori qui”. Penso che abbia dovuto lavorare molto sulla parte che interpretava.
D: In che modo le cose cambiano per te che sei un’attrice? Puoi entrare e uscire dal personaggio più facilmente?
S: Dipende da un sacco di cose diverse. Ho appena fatto questo film, “Welcome to the Riley’s”, quello in cui interpreto una ragazzina cresciuta per strada, e voglio dire, è facile mentire. Se non riesci a farlo, allora questo lavoro può essere davvero snervante. Ci sono momenti in cui devi uscire dalla parte e iniziare a ridertela, perché se ci spendi sedici ore al giorno puoi letteralmente collassare. Certe volte sei in grado di farlo e certe volte no.
D: So che state facendo un tour di “Hot Topic” al centro commerciale. Ci sei anche tu?
S: Penso che la prossima settimana andrò a due Hot Topic.
D: Dunque tu ti senti preparata perchè sembra che i fan siano, voglio dire questa parola, appassionati.
S: Sì, questa è una bella cosa. Quando siamo stati a Roma abbiamo firmato i libri per i fan, e quando sono uscita dalla libreria non potevo entrare in macchina dalla folla che c’era. In effetti avevo un po’ paura. Sono stata praticamente trascinata dal servizio di sicurezza. Non camminavo nemmeno con le mie gambe. Sono stata buttata dentro un furgone perché se non l’avessero fatto sarei stata…voglio dire, mi hanno letteralmente presa e gettata dentro un furgone, e quando lo sportello si è chiuso il furgone ha cominciato a scuotersi e a muoversi. E’ un’esperienza davvero surreale, e in quei momenti pensi “Dio mio. Cosa succede?”. Comunque è bello. Penso che a partire da quell’esperienza, d’ora in poi ci sarà sempre un’entrata sotterranea della quale siamo tutti a conoscenza. E ci sarà anche più sicurezza. Non andrò da nessuna parte finchè non avrò 15 grossi omoni attorno a me [Ride].
D: So che alcuni attori hanno indossato dei costumi alla Comic-Con (una famosa convention di libri, fumetti e film, Ndr.) e hanno girato con quelli per mimetizzarsi nella folla.
S: Lo so. Avrei voluto farlo anch’io.
D: Potresti farlo per scappare.
S: Certo, chi lo sa. Ci sono quelle felpe, probabilmente anche a Hot Topic, quelle felpe con la cerniera che arriva fino alla testa e che ti fanno sembrare uno scheletro completo, con il teschio, le ossa e tutto il resto. Sarebbe divertente, mi piacerebbe farlo.
D: Riesci a muoverti in incognito quando sei in pubblico?
S: Sì. Non so se il motivo sia che questo è il mio primo grande film o se si tratti di qualcos’altro, fatto sta che mentre Rob viene riconosciuto praticamente ovunque vada, a me non succede.
D: Sono i capelli.
S: Sì, assolutamente. E poi lui è alto. Lo si nota subito.
D: Stanno cominciando a nausearti tutti questi cartelli di Twilight che tappezzano la città? O la cosa ti piace?
S: Sono così felice che il film mi piaccia. Sono così felice di essere fiera di questo film, e del fatto che riesco a starci dentro e che non sono stata travolta dalla macchina che si è messa in moto attorno al film. In quel caso mi sarei nascosta sotto il tavolo e quest’intervista sarebbe andata in modo disastroso. Ma sono davvero emozionata perché sono fiera di questo film. Comunque, non è per questo che l’ho fatto. Di solito non sono una che guarda le copertine delle riviste e dice “Oh, com’è bella. Vorrei poterlo fare anch’io”. Non investo troppo sotto quell’aspetto. Non mi impressiona affatto una cosa simile. Anche perché se il film va bene allora sarà fantastico, ma se non va bene allora “Mio Dio”, mi sento male per quella persona la cui faccia appare su manifesti di molti metri d’altezza, tutti spazzati via. Qualcuno sarebbe felice di questo, almeno finchè la loro faccia è la fuori e questo alimenta la loro fama. Io non sono così.
D: C’è una scena in questo film che è stata cancellata e che tu avresti voluto tenere?
S: Ho visto il film una sola volta e non è rimasto fuori nulla. Bè, forse sì, una cosa è rimasta fuori. Ma era un’improvvisazione e forse non si adattava bene al resto. Era una scena in cui io e Rob stiamo semplicemente camminando e parlando. Penso che magari hanno ritenuto che fosse qualcosa di non focalizzato sui nostri personaggi, ma io non sono d’accordo. Comunque alcune battute del film erano completamente improvvisate, perciò io pensavo che avrebbero detto qualcosa del tipo “Okay, stiamo registrando senza audio, perciò dite pure quello che volete, non useremo nulla di tutto ciò”. Ma poi, alcune di quelle cose sono finite davvero nel film e io sono molto emozionata per questo.
D: Puoi farci un esempio preciso?
S: Una cosa che mi viene in mente è la scena nella quale io e Rob siamo sull’albero e lui mi solleva per mostrarmi la vista più bella che si gode da lì, la sua vista preferita. Suona davvero stupido auto-citare una mia battuta, ma ricordo questa frase, perché io dico “Questa roba non esiste per davvero” e lui risponde “Nel mio mondo esiste, invece”. Rob è così.
D: Hanno usato molte di quelle battute. Anche nel trailer.
S. Lo so. E’ una cosa davvero strana.

According to sources, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are set to confirm their relationship in an upcoming issue of “Harper’s Bazaar”. They have been said to be bumping uglies forever now and in the December issue of “Harper’s Bazaar”, they’re set to go public with the news.
The onscreen couple play lovers Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in the “Twilight” movies, and it’s been said for a long time now that they’ve been hooking up off-camera, as well.
The two were spotted at a Kings Of Leon concert together, holding each other closely and were said to be kissing at the time.
Kristen is no longer dating Michael Angarano, so their confirmation wouldn’t come as a surprise at all. But the real question is, how would the Twi-hards take it?
Of course, you know they want all of that sparkly vampire goodness to themselves.
Update: On the other hand, there are two sides to every story. We’ve just heard that even though the duo did shoot something for “Harper’s Bazaar”, that they are not confirming anything. Way to keep the Twilight buzz going, guys.
According to Examiner, “A source close to production told them Pattinson and Stewart “do NOT” discuss whether or not they’re a couple.”
Figures they’d keep us guessing

Twilight star Kristen Stewart brings the magic back on the October/November 2009 cover of Interview Magazine's 40th Anniversary Issue.
LOVE the cover. LOVE!
The 19-year-old actress was interview by actor Dennis Hooper, who just happened to be hospitalized yesterday. She even talks to Hooper's six-year-old daughter Galen. So cute!
When asked if it bothers her to see herself in the tabloids, Kristen says, "There's nothing you can do about it, to be honest. I don't leave my hotel room-literally, I don't. I don't talk to anybody about my personal life, and maybe that perpetuates it, too. But it's really important to own what you want to own and keep it to yourself. That said, the only way for me not to have somebody know where I went the night before is if I didn't go out at all. So that's what I'm trading. It depends what mood I'm in. Some nights, I think, 'You know what? I don't care. I'm just going to do what I want to do.' Then the next day I think, 'Ugh. Now everyone thinks I'm going out to get the attention' But it's like, no, I actually, for a second, thought that maybe I could be like a normal person."
The first decade of the 21st century, which is about to draw to a close, is in serious danger of being remembered as the time when fame was measured in pokes, tweets, and the ability to parlay a death-defying (and sometimes not so death-defying) degree of persona recklessness into a reality-television deal. But just as the door was about to slam shut on the double aughts, in walks-or, more appropriately, saunters-Kristen Stewart.
At 19, Stewart has already earned a place in the annals of pop-culture history. This is due to her starring role in Twilight, which-in case you've somehow managed to elude word of its all-encompassing death grip on young America-is a film based on the first in a series of very popular books about vampires, werewolves, and teenage life in the town of Forks, Washington. Stewart's character, Bella Swan, is a newcomer to Forks who is forced to cope with the dueling pressures of starting life at a new school and the fact that her prospective boyfriend, the rakish Edward Cullen (played by the rakish Robert Pattinson), is a 104-year-old undead bloodsucker.
Given Twilight's preoccupation with the timeless themes of misunderstood youth, troubled young love, and the intervening forces of darkness, the film's success isn't all that surprising. (To date, it has grossed more than $380 million worldwide.) Nor is the fact that more Twilights are in the offing: A second installment, New Moon, hits theaters in November, and a third, Eclipse, is due out next year. But the growing size and complexity of the Twilight machine has had some unavoidable implications:
In the last 12 months, Stewart has become a tabloid regular and a blog-stalked cynosure. The fact that her Twilight character is romantically linked to Pattinson's in the film has also fueled nonstop speculation that they are involved in real life. BUYING A HOUSE? and GETTING MARRIED? were just a couple of the early autumn headlines. Between filming Twilight sequels, Stewart did a turn as Joan Jett in Floria Sigismondi's new rock-band biopic The Runaways; even her hair for the film-which was chopped and dyed to mimic Jett's late-'70s shag-inspired reams of media critique.
Stewart grew up in Los Angeles in a Hollywood family of sorts-her mother is a script supervisor, and her father is a stage manager-and as a kid announced her interest in working in front of the camera. Her second film, David Fincher's 2002 thriller, Panic Room, in which she played Jodie Foster's too-quick, too-wise, too-over-it daughter, proved an early indicator of her ability to play young, smart, but not precocious. Her performance in more left-of-center projects such as Sean Penn's Into the Wild (2007) and this year's Adventureland has only reinforced that notion. But if there's a thread that runs through her relatively small body of work, it's one that's closely connected to the idea that you don't have to be old to have soul. With Stewart, you don't get 19-going-on-35. What you do get is a visceral window into what it means to be young and struggling to make sense of your own life and the world around you-and all the alternating waves of darkness and confusion and brightness and possibility that come with that. In many ways, it's the unwritten nature of Stewart's own story now, with its surreal subplots and recent twists and turns, that makes her compelling to watch. It's true that she might very well be a rebel anodyne to many of her bleached and sprayed-on contemporaries. Or, like Bella Swan, she might just be someone who comes from somewhere, found her way into something exceptional, and is on her way to someplace else. Either way, she's got a solid arc.
In celebration of Interview's 40th anniversary, we askedactor, director, writer, and photographer Dennis Hopper-whose connection to the magazine reaches across all fourdecades-to handle the interviewing duties for this cover story. He graciously obliged. He spoke to Stewart, who was shooting Eclipse in Vancouver, from the set of his cable series, Crash, in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
DENNIS HOPPER: Before we start, I have a little six-year-old daughter here who's going crazy right now because you're on the phone. Could I just put her on for a second to say hello?
KRISTEN STEWART: Yeah, sure.
HOPPER: Okay, her name is Galen. [hands phone]
GALEN HOPPER: Hi!
STEWART: Hi! How are you?
GALEN: Good.
STEWART: It's really nice to meet you, Galen. [pause] Hello?
GALEN: Hi!
HOPPER: [takes phone] She's so excited.
STEWART: Wow, that made me so nervous!
HOPPER: It made you nervous?
STEWART: Yeah. I'm just sort of intimidated by kids. I didn't know what to say.
HOPPER: Well, thank you for doing that. So how are you doing?
STEWART: I'm pretty good. I'm not very good at interviews, but this is a trip. Why in god's name did you want to do this? You have no idea how cool this is for me.
HOPPER: Well, you're a really good actress. And my daughter is your biggest fan, so I thought, What the hell? [laughs] I usually don't do this, either. But you must be going through a lot right now, the way Twilight is hitting. You must have no peace at all.
STEWART: The sad thing is that I feel so boring because Twilight is literally how every conversation I have these days begins-whether it's someone I'm meeting for the first time or someone I just haven't seen in a while. The first thing I want to say to them is, "It's insane! And, as a person, I can't do anything!" But then I think to myself, God damn it, shut the fuck up.
HOPPER: [both laugh] You know, you're giving really wonderful performances. Since you didn't know you'd be making sequels when you were making the first Twilight, has it been difficult for you to get back into character for these new ones?
STEWART: I've actually always been interested in following a character more long term, but the only place to really do that as an actor is on a TV series. But the Twilight series is cool because you know what's ahead of you-all of the books have been written. And I get breaks in between. It's sort of a depressing thing to lose a character just when you've been able to get to know her. Usually, at the end of a film it's like I've finally gotten to know this person completely, and then we're done. That actually happened on the set of Twilight, and then it happened again on New Moon. Each time my character Bella became a different person, and I got to know that person and take her to the next level.
HOPPER: Have you been able to enjoy it? Or do you feel more pressure doing these sequels?
STEWART: I do feel more of a pressurized strain than what is typical for me. Usually, what drives you is your own personal responsibility to the script and the character and the people you are working with. But in this case, I have a responsibility not only to that but to everyone who has personal involvement in the books-and now that spans the world. It's an insane concept. There are certain things in Twilight . . . As much as I'm proud of that movie and I do like it, I feel like maybe I brought too much of myself to the character. I feel like I really know Bella now. But most readers feel like they know Bella because it's a first-person narrative. She's like a little vessel and everyone experiences the story through her. All of these girls who are fans personally feel like they encapsulate that character. So it's like, "How the hell am I going to do that for all of them? It's impossible!" But I've decided, if you're just unabashedly honest all of the time, you have nothing to be ashamed of.
HOPPER: These Twilight books have some dark material.
STEWART: But the movies aren't that dark, as much as we'd all have loved to have made those films. But as pretty as it is to watch and as nice as it is to have watched these two characters find solace in each other, everything around them is absolute chaos. I mean, you have to question their motivations-to watch two people so unhealthily devoted to each other . . . I stand behind everything that they do. I have to justify it in my mind, or else I couldn't play the character. But they are definitely not the most pragmatic characters. The weirdest fucking themes run through this story-like dominance and masochism. I mean, you always have to realize that the story needs to make sense to the 11-year-olds who read the book and aren't necessarily going to be viewing a scene as foreplay. But then there is the other segment of the audience-a large percentage-who does see the scene as foreplay. And it's pretty deep, heady foreplay. [laughs] So it's fun to play it both ways. I mean, I don't know what it feels like to make out with my vampire boyfriend because it isn't something that anybody has ever felt. But it's funny to think that a lot of the audience is 10 years old and will maybe one day grow up to realize there are a lot of involved thoughts in Twilight that they didn't see before.
HOPPER: Well, you're getting a lot of attention.
STEWART: Yeah, it's weird. There's an idea about who I am that's eternally projected onto me, and then I almost feel like I have to fulfill that role. Even when things come out of my mouth, I want to be sure I'm saying exactly what I mean. All I'm thinking of is the fact that everything that I say is going to be criticized-not criticized, just evaluated and analyzed. And it's always something that matters so much to me that doesn't come out right. But in terms of how my life has changed, I never really went out a whole lot before. I'm sort of an in-my-head kind of person. I wish I could take more walks . . .
HOPPER: You can't take walks?
STEWART: I'd like to take more walks after work, instead of having to come back to my hotel room and not leave. So it can be boring. I've been working as an actress since I was very young, and I know a lot of people who are actors who don't have to deal with having a persona . . . You know, if you look up the word persona, it isn't even real. The whole meaning of the word is that it's made up, and it's like I didn't even get to make up my own. It can be annoying. But I have a really strong feeling that this is going to go away, that this is the most intense it's going to get-and could get-and that it's fleeting. So in a few years, I will hopefully become more like the people I want to become like.
HOPPER: Does it bother you to see yourself in the tabloids?
STEWART: There's nothing you can do about it, to be honest. I don't leave my hotel room-literally, I don't. I don't talk to anybody about my personal life, and maybe that perpetuates it, too. But it's really important to own what you want to own and keep it to yourself. That said, the only way for me not to have somebody know where I went the night before is if I didn't go out at all. So that's what I'm trading. It depends what mood I'm in. Some nights, I think, "You know what? I don't care. I'm just going to do what I want to do." Then the next day I think, "Ugh.Now everyone thinks I'm going out to get the attention." But it's like, no, I actually, for a second, thought that maybe I could be like a normal person.
HOPPER: I was looking at all the films you've done, and you've worked with some extraordinarily talented people: Patricia Clarkson-god, she's a great actress-and Jodie Foster. Just really wonderful people. And your performances are very different. You started when you were nine years old. You wanted to act, right? It wasn't like you were forced into it because your parents were in the industry?
STEWART: No. Not at all.
HOPPER: Because Dean Stockwell is one of my best friends, and he has horror stories about acting when he was a kid. But you wanted to do this, right?
STEWART: It's a weird thing to expect a child that young to say what they want to do, like act. I'm not sure it was a natural inclination for me either, but it was something that I fell into. To be honest, I had fun at first. It was the first thing I ever thrived at. My parents are crew. They were both baffled that I wanted to act. But they support anything that me and my brothers want to do. It was something I thought was fun because I grew up on sets. And then a few years later, I grew up and acting became very different to me. I think I was about 13.
HOPPER: Did you study with anyone? Or did you just pick it up through association?
STEWART: No, I just walked into it.
HOPPER: You learned it there. That's the best place to learn. I saw Panic Room again last night.
STEWART: Really? I haven't seen that in so long. That was the second movie I ever made. Thank god Jodie Foster did that movie because I wasn't thinking about anything on that set. I was literally just hanging out with her and being myself. I can't think about watching that-it would kill me. It would be like watching a home movie.
HOPPER: But you're so good in it. Did you go to school while you were working as a kid?
STEWART: I went to public school up until junior high. I know it's a little late and I'm a little old, but I just finished high school-with honors. The other day I was doing a graduation scene on Eclipse, and I had just finished high school myself the week before, so I told the crew, "Hey, just so you know, I'm actually graduating right now, and I'm not going to have another ceremony." So I took a mock picture with an extra. I literally asked the actor to come back and shake my hand and hand me the diploma while I was dressed in a cap and gown.
Fanning, and he knows her as well, so it was cool. I actually hadn't seen him in a couple of years. So it was sort of a trip because I'm different and he's not. You know what I'm saying?

‘Twilight’ star Kristen Stewart (pictured arriving at LAX) is tired of reports that she’s dating her movie co-star Robert Pattinson, insisting she’s sick of reading the same story every day.
The young actors have been forced to deny persistent reports they have taken their on-screen romance off-screen and Stewart admits the constant speculation over her private life is beginning to irk her, Allure magazine reported.
The 20-year-old actress refuses to answer questions about the extent of her relationship with Pattinson for fear of fueling reports they are a real-life couple.
“I read that story every day… It’s in a story every day, so let’s not put it in another one,” Stewart said.
Earlier this month rumours were abuzz that Pattinson and Stewart were to confirm their romance in a tell all interview to Harper Bazaar magazine.

Stewart calls Pattinson “a great singer. Heartbreaking,” while Pattinson says of his costar, “She’s a unique girl. You really don’t meet many people like Kristen.”
When asked who is more romantic, Stewart immediately says Pattinson, adding, “I’d have to say Rob is. I think romance is anything honest. As long as it’s honest, it’s so disarming.”
When is Pattinson posed with the same question he quips, “What did Kristen say?” When he finds out that she pointed at him, he responds, “No. I’m better at faking” and laughs.
Pattison on Stewart: “Kristen doesn’t take an slack. She sticks to her guns - and that’s difficult to do.”
Stewart on who is more athletic: “I’m definitely claiming that one. Rob can barely jump rope. I call him Flippy because when he does his stunt rehearsals, he flips around [makes gestures like a penguin]. And God, when he tries to run…”
Pattinson on who googles themselves more: “[Kristin] would say me, but I reckon it’s her. If either one of us catches the other one doing it, we’re like, Jesus Christ, is that what you’re looking at? And the other one’s on their phone pretending to text. I look up my competition more than she does. I’m incredibly shallow. I think she just looks at herself.”

• Kristen (on the film, "Catch That Kid"): I think it shows that if you have a best friend, you help them no matter what happens. I think kids can relate to that. .
