Joan Jett pratar om Kristen
Joan Jett, som spelades av Twilightstjärnan Kristen Stewart, säger att hon är imponerad att filmen har inspirerat en ny generation av unga kvinnor att plocka upp gitarren. "Det är verkligen sött - men nej, de kommer inte springandes och skriker som de gör för Kristen. Kanske är de rädda för att göra det eller något."
Joan Jett, som kommer håller hov på den lokal rockinstitutionen Annandale Hotel den 7 januari, säger att hon är angelägen om att starta ett nytt kapitel med sitt australiska besök.

Kristen;No,You can't take my picture
"It's strange when you become a novelty...It's sort of like, 'Yeah, sure. Go put this on your Facebook so your friends can laugh at it.' And I usually say no to people like that, when they're like, 'Yo, yo, can I get a picture of you?' And it's like, 'No...you [#$*!].' That's what I'm thinking."
—Kristen Stewart chatting with the L.A. Times recently about getting recognized when she's out and about
The article notes how cool and calm Stewart was during the interview until a guy (we wouldn't even say fan since he had to ask her full name) noticed her and asked to get a picture for his girlfriend.
Isn't that why we love this girl—for saying what every other celeb in the world wishes they had the guts to admit?
Whatever, nice of K.Stew to oblige the common folk, but we think she does it with a little more heart when they are real fans.

Kristen Stewart is the lead actress in one of the biggest Hollywood franchises ever, and if she seems caught off guard by her massive fame (and she does, often), she's not as shocked as Jodie Foster. "I am surprised she is an actress," Foster recently told E!. When Stewart was just 11, she played Foster's daughter in the David Fincher thriller Panic Room, and "I didn't think [stardom was] where she was headed," Foster confessed. "And even though her mom said, 'No, she really, really wants to be an actress,' I felt like, 'Nah, she won't because she really doesn't have the stereotypical personality.'"
What Foster means, of course, is that we're used to seeing our female movie stars a certain way: bubbly, ambitious, and willing to do hard time in run-of-the-mill romantic comedies if it eventually leads to eight-figure paychecks and one prestige picture that nets them an Oscar nod. To say the least, the 20-year-old Stewart has circumvented that route on her path to the top, but what comes next for such an unconventional starlet? Does Kristen Stewart actually want to be a movie star, and what kind of post-Twilight prospects does she have? Vulture asked industry insiders those questions to answer that Star Market perennial: If Kristen Stewart were a stock, should you buy, sell, or hold?

/LinaIntervju med Kristen från Timeout NY (på svenska)
Du verkar vara väldigt attraherad av roller där du spelar någon som är trotsig, ständigt kämpar för något- emotionellt, fysiskt. Vad är det svåraste som Mallory kämpar för?
Jag tror att hon bara försöker överleva. Hon har haft en tuff uppväxt, som togs från henne på en riktigt grundläggande nivå. Det är svårt för en ung flicka i den vanliga världen, men sätt henne på gatan... hon inser inte att hon faktiskt behöver människor, att hon måste ha en kapacitet att lita på, acceptera och älska andra människor. Hon ser och smakar på det med Doug, och inser att hon kan ha det, och hon är inte död än.
Du filmade denna film mellan Twilight och New Moon, innan Twilight ens hade släppts, och du var fortfarande mycket ung. Kände du dig redo att spela en strippa vid den punkten i ditt liv?
Jag tror jag var 16 eller kanske nyligen 17 år när jag först läste manuset till Welcome to the Rileys. Jag var verkligen rädd, och jag är verkligen glad att filmen tog sin tid det gjorde att hitta sina ben, eftersom jag inte var i rätt stånd i livet att spela rollen då. Jag skulle inte ha hoppat in det så mycket. Jag skulle ha varit rädd för det.
Vad ändrades, förutom att du blev lite äldre?
För att kunna spela det rätt och inte vara en total bedragare, gick vi till strippklubbar och jag pratade med flickor i, liksom, riktigt äckliga barer. Regissören Jake Scott gav mig alla dessa riktigt bra böcker och inspelade band och nedskrivna samtal och berättelser från barn som vuxit upp på gatorna.
Har du pratat med tjejer som har vuxit upp på gatan, eller var du bara på klubbarna?
Jag gick inte och pratade med rymlingar på logier för hemlösa. Jag träffade inte någon som var under, jag skulle gissa, 25? Jag pratade bara huvudsakligen med flickor som berättade roliga historier. Vi grävde inte riktigt i deras historia, men de böcker och saker som Jake gav mig var verkligen mitt i prick.
Vilken var den bästa boken?
Gud, det är ganska roligt att berätta detta- det var en speciell bok som perfekt och bilder som var riktigt vackra och hjärtskärande, så konstigt. Den heter Raised By Wolves. Den är så bra. Den här killen gjorde sig omtyckt till världen av gatubarn i Hollywood.
Vad tycker du om unga människor som har fallit mellan springorna i livet?
Det är ett märkligt litet samhälle. Det är en värld av människor som lever i en ond cirkel, du vet, en förändrad, trasig, konstig existens. Men de är alla en familj, och de får det att fungera. Mallory tar sig ur det.
Skrämdes du av något medan ni filmade?
När jag filmade förlorade jag mitt sinne lite. Jag var så bekväm. Jag bokstavligen stampade runt i staden i fisknät och hälften av en morgonrock, typ gick från inspelningen från baslägret och tänkte "Nej, skit i det, jag bara går, oroa er inte för det." Jag hade absolut ingen rädsla i världen. Man vet aldrig om du kan göra något förrän du gör det.
Du är under större press än de flesta skådisar på grund av Twilight, och uppfattningar om att bli fast i ett fack.
Ja, och du vet, det avskräcker mig inte på något sätt, men det är något som jag tänker på när någon frågar: "Har något förändrats" Det har det, men arbetet har inte förändrats.
Du är på väg att filma den sista filmen i Twilightsagan, Breaking Dawn. Njuter du fortfarande njuter av det, eller är du desperat för att det ska sluta?
Jag kan inte vänta med att göra det, kan inte vänta med att få ut det... det är den galnaste, längsta uppbyggdnaden. Det är precis som, Kom igen och gör det någon jävla gång, vet du vad jag menar? Men samtidigt är det sorgligt. Inte för att vara helt och fullständigt uppriktig, men- jag vet att en del människor tycket att de är dåliga, men de skulle bli riktigt dåliga om skådespelarna inte älskade dem.<3
Intervju med Kristen från Timeout NY
Q: You seem very attracted to roles in which you play someone who is defiant, constantly fighting for something—emotionally, physically. What is Mallory fighting for the hardest?
A: I think she’s just trying to survive. She’s had a rough upbringing, which has taken something from her on a really basic level. It’s hard for a young girl in the normal world, but put her on the streets...she doesn’t realize that she does actually need people, that she needs to have a capacity to trust, accept and love other people. She sees and tastes that with Doug, realizes she can have it, and she’s not dead yet.
Q: You shot this film between Twilight and New Moon, before Twilight had even been released, and you were still very young. Did you feel ready to play a runaway stripper at that point in your life?
A: I think I was 16 or maybe freshly 17 when I first read [the script for Welcome to the Rileys]. I was really intimidated, and I’m really glad that the film took the time that it did to find its legs, because I wasn’t in the position to play the part [then]. I wouldn’t have jumped into it as much. I would have been afraid of it.
Q: What changed, besides getting a little older?
A: In order to play it right and not be a total fraud, we went to strip clubs and I talked to girls in, like, really gross bars. [Director] Jake Scott gave me all these really great books and recorded and transcribed conversations and stories from kids who’ve grown up on the streets.
Q: Did you talk to girls who had grown up on the streets, or were you just in the clubs?
A: I didn’t go talk to runaways at shelters. I didn’t meet anybody that was under, I would guess, 25? I mainly just talked to girls who told me funny stories. We didn’t really delve into their histories, but the books and stuff that Jake provided me with were really right on.
Q: What was the best book?
A: Gosh, it’s sort of funny to tell people this—there was this one in particular that there were a few things that were perfect and pictures that were really beautiful and heartbreaking, just strange. It’s called Raised by Wolves. It’s so good. This guy basically endeared himself into this world of street kids in Hollywood.
Q: What do you think about young people who have fallen through the cracks of life?
A: It’s a strange little society. It’s a world of people living in a vicious circle, you know, an altered, broken, strange existence. But they’re all a family, and they’re making it work. Mallory takes herself out of that.
Q: Did anything about filming the movie scare you?
A: When I was shooting I lost my mind a little bit. I was so comfortable. I literally was stomping around the city in fishnets and half of a robe, like walking to set from base camp like, “No, fuck it, I’ll just walk, don’t worry about it.” I had absolutely no fear in the world. You never know if you can do something until you do it.
Q: You’re under more pressure than most actors because of Twilight, and perceptions about typecasting and your range.
A: Yeah, and you know, it definitely doesn’t deter me in any way, but it’s something that I think about when asked: “Has anything changed?” That has, but the work hasn’t.
Q: You’re about to shoot the final film in the Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn. Are you still enjoying it, or are you desperate for it to end?
A: I can’t wait to do it, I can’t wait to get it out...it’s the craziest, longest buildup. It’s just like, Let’s fucking do it already, you know what I mean? But at the same time, it’s sad. Not to be totally and completely candid, but—I know some people think they’re bad—but they’d be really bad if the cast didn’t really love them.

LA Times new interview with Kristen Stewart
For once, Kristen Stewart seemed at ease.
The 20-year-old "Twilight" star was enjoying a rare moment of anonymity at one of her favorite restaurants, a rustic hideaway shrouded by a canopy of ferns, perched alongside a twisty road in Topanga Canyon. Notices for a local farmers market, a childbirth preparation class and a 70th birthday celebration for John Lennon decorated the haunt's bulletin board.
A few honeybees circled the veggie burger on her plate as she chatted about playing a teenage runaway-turned-stripper in her latest film, "Welcome to the Rileys," a drama coming to theaters Friday. She wasn't running her hands through her hair, or incessantly shaking her leg, or stuttering as she tried to express herself — all of the characteristic nervous tics she's often displayed in public since the first "Twilight" film rocketed her into a frightening orbit of celebrity two years ago.
Then, suddenly, her face fell. A stranger was timidly inching over to her table.
"Could I take a picture for my girlfriend in Thailand?" the man, who appeared to be in his 30s, asked. "She's a great-looking girl. I just recently got into your movies with her. Is that cool?"
Stewart paused, her left leg slowly beginning to bounce. "Yeah," she sighed. "Yeah, sure." She posed for a photo with the interloper.
Oblivious to her agitation, he lingered. "What's your name again? Kristen, right? Want me to show you my girl?" he asked, beginning to flip through images on his digital camera. "Just for her to know that I picked up breakfast at your restaurant. You know, we're the type of people that don't get out much."
Finally, he retreated. Stewart pulled the hood of her black sweatshirt over her head.
"It's strange when you become a novelty," she said, slouching down into her seat. "It's sort of like, 'Yeah, sure. Go put this on your Facebook so your friends can laugh at it.' Because that's what they will do. And I usually say no to people like that, when they're like, 'Yo, yo, can I get a picture of you?' And it's like, 'No, … you,' '' she said, interjecting an obscenity. "That's what I'm thinking."
Stewart, it's clear, is still grappling with fame, which came at her hard and fast when at age 17 she took on the role of Bella Swan in the "Twilight" vampire franchise, whose fourth installment begins production next month. She's always trailed by paparazzi. A frenzy breaks out whenever she's spotted off-set with "Twilight" co-star Robert Pattinson; tabloids speculate breathlessly about their personal lives.
(One celebrity website, for example, recently gushed about its "exclusive new details" on the pair's visit to a Play N Trade video game store in Prairieville, La., where they are preparing to film the first part of "Breaking Dawn." If you must know, they reportedly bought the game "Fallout: New Vegas.")
Unlike other young stars like Justin Bieber or Lindsay Lohan, who seem to relish sharing tidbits about their lives with fans on social networking sites like Twitter, Stewart has strenuously resisted constant demands to divulge more of herself to the public.
In past interviews, she's displayed a penchant for stuttering and eye rolling, consequently developing a reputation for being sullen, or awkward. During a 2008 interview with David Letterman, she self-consciously referred to herself as "actually really boring."
"I don't have a personality fit for television. I just don't," she admitted, sounding genuinely friendly. "Even when I really feel like I've had fun with something and been totally fine and we talked about stuff that I thought was interesting — even then. I don't know. It's getting easier. It used to be a lot worse. And it's totally my fault, too. I guess I just put too much pressure on myself before, and it showed."
Though she started acting half a lifetime ago — garnering early acclaim from the likes of Jodie Foster, who co-starred with her in 2002's "Panic Room," and Sean Penn, who directed her in 2007's "Into the Wild" — Stewart says she's been unable to nail a performance as a carefree, charming or cute interview subject, because that's simply not who she is.
Sixteen-year-old Dakota Fanning, who costarred with Stewart in "The Runaways" this year, picked up on her uneasiness during the film's media tour.
"I think that her being uncomfortable doing interviews — Kristen is exactly who she is. It's something that I admire her for," Fanning said. "When she's doing an interview, she really thinks about what she's saying. She's a truthful, honest person, and wants that to come across so badly."
Things got so bad, her team sent her to media training.
"Basically, they told me that I should be ready for any question that's thrown at me, and I should have a stock answer, because then it won't confuse things and you'll never be caught off guard," she recalled. "And there's no way to do that. There's no way to be prepared for a conversation with someone you don't know about something that means the world to you."

Regissören för WTTR jämför Kristen med Meryl Streep!
NEW YORK — “Welcome to the Rileys” director Jake Scott has used phrases like “emotionally naked” and “got dirty” to describe Kristen Stewart’s performance in the film. The 20-year-old actress plays a broken young woman thrust into a life of stripping in a seedy club and selling her body in fetid motel rooms.
At the film’s red-carpet premiere in Tribeca on Monday night, Scott continued to hit on those same themes of unvarnished emotionality, comparing KStew to one of the most critically lauded and emotionally expressive actresses in Hollywood.
“That’s like Meryl Streep stuff, you know?” he told MTV News.
He was speaking specifically about how Stewart took on such a demanding role at such a young age — and how she delivered such a top-notch performance. “I know that she put a lot of herself into that role,” he said. “She was exposing herself emotionally. In order to do that, you have to put yourself there. It was an act of courage on her part, especially considering she was only 18.”
Stewart’s co-star, Melissa Leo, agreed, telling us how she and James Gandolfini watched in awe as KStew blossomed on the “Rileys” set. “I met Kristen at a very special time,” she said. “She had just done ‘Twilight.’ She had been acting for a while. She has always carefully chosen her roles. Playing the character, she was acting for the first time as an emancipated actor. It was a treat for James and I to watch her spread her wings.”
That’s exactly what Scott was watching on the red carpet Monday, as Stewart strode confidently from interview to interview. “She’s grown up,” he said. “She’s a woman now. She was a girl when I first met her. I’ve now known her probably three years. She’s just becoming this wonderful woman.”
