Outtakes of Kristen Stewart in Nylon magazine. "Robert Pattinson,star of “Twilight” and “New Moon” recently gave an interview with the French edition of Premiere. He talked about how he was able to cope with his newfound mega super stardom. He says it wasn’t always as easy as he’s recently been making it appear,in fact he used to get quite frustrated with it.
He commented on one experience,saying, “I was in a restaurant during a break at Cannes, and when I came out two hours later, 500 people were waiting for me at the exit.It was total chaos. I’m sure that if I told one of those girls ‘come, let’s go have breakfast,’ she would have been totally embarrassed and would never scream my name again.”
He also talked how his “Twilight Saga” co-star, Kristen Stewart kept him grounded when all the “Twilight” hype started to get to him. He stated, “I was getting really paranoid. If tomorrow I say ‘OK, I’ve had enough we’re stopping everything’ it won’t change anything. Might as well try to accept it and stay Zen as I have no control over it. It’s not always easy. But whining won’t change anything.”
Robert is currently in Vancouver,Canada filming “Twilight Saga : Eclipse” which is set to hit theaters June 30,2010. “Twilight Saga : New Moon” arrives November 20,2009". Source: ontheflix.com

Premiere: Rob, before we start, I'd like to know the name of your hairdresser and the brand of gel you use Rob: You want to know the truth? The only time I cut my hair is on setP: The last time we saw each other was during the American promotion of Twilight last November, you didn't seem to realize yet what was happening R: I don't think anyone can understand what's happening. Something like this is so rare. It's a mix of chance and a coincidence. You wake up one day and you're suddenly a star. Really weird. All of a sudden everyone know who you are while you haven't changed one bit. I really understood what was happening in Cannes. I was in a restaurant and when I came out 500 people were waiting for me at the exit. It was a total chaos. They literally had to carry me to the car. R: It's crazy, isn't it? I haven't found one place in the world yet where I could disappear. Even in the most remote places I can imagine, someone will ask me for a picture or an autograph. Honestly, I didn't think I would be recognized so easily [laughs] P:At the same time you must have to watch how you act, which must not be easy, especially when you're 23. I remember when I was 23...It was better that a camera wasn't aimed at me 24/7R: It scares me a little. When I go to meetings for other projects, the people I meet with only seem interested by Edward Cullen. It's like "If the role interests you and you can bring us the public from Twilight, you've got it". They'd even let me play a woman I think. P:Are there many male Twilight fans? R:A few.. more and more guys ask me for autographs in fact. Unless they're doing it only to sell them on Ebay [Laughs]P: Three days after filming New Moon ends you start filming Remember Me, a romantic comedy by Allen Coulter, followed a few days later by Eclipse, the third movie of the Twilight Saga. If we add the western, by Madeleine Stowe, in which you'll be playing after, you will only have 5 days off in one year.. R: And if everything goes as scheduled, in January I'll begin filiming Bel Ami in Paris for 3 months, after which I'll start filming the 4th and last Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn. P: Therefore you are booked for 2 years R: Pretty close. With one week at the end of summer to see my friends, whom in the end, I'll forget even exist [Laughs]. It's crazy P: I feel like it's your way of escaping the craziness surrounding you right now R: ..And you're not wrong. Source: www.premiere.com
"Emile Hirsch was on his way to becoming a leading man after starring in Into the Wild and Speed Racer. But now he's taking a small but pivotal role as a Vietnam vet trying to adjust to returning home in Ang Lee's Taking Woodstock."As soon as I heard Ang Lee was interested in me, I knew I was going to do the film even before I got the script. I've been a fan of Ang ever since Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which I absolutely adored. And course Brokeback Mountain just blew me away. I'll always remember talking to Heath Ledger just after he finished that movie and he was going on about working with Ang and how incredible he was." Doing justice to war vets.
"We talked with some Vietnam veterans who literally went through their scrapbooks and dredged up a lot of memories. They told me about their experiences, like the firefights and the combat flashbacks they had after coming home. Then Ang had me go off with some Iraq veterans who took me to a shooting range where we were firing M4's, Glock's and a Beretta. After shooting all day, we went into the woods and did these crazy military drills. What was funny was afterwards we ended up checking each other for ticks because they were worried about Lyme disease." Why he still isn't visiting a barber.
"I haven't really had my hair cut since I did Milk. It was fine for Woodstock, but I still can't get a trim because my girlfriend likes it long. I cry myself to sleep every night dreaming of buzz cuts. No, I'm kidding, I like long hair. I'm trying to bring long hair back."
Up next, messing with the Great Bard."I'm working with Catherine Hardwicke on a modern adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet set at a present day college. It's being written by Ron Nyswaner who was nominated for an Oscar his screenplay for Philadelphia. We want to do for Hamlet what Baz Luhrmann did for Romeo and Juliet in terms of like a really cool kind of re-imagining. I've been watching a lot of different Hamlets for several months now, I've probably seen like 12 of them, and it's always fun to see how each one is different. But I have to say we're doing stuff with this script that's going to give the average Shakespeare scholar cardiac arrest. That's part of the kick, to like beat the geeks. But it's going to be cool."Source: www.parade.com
Cinematical: The character you played in Into the Wild had his own tragic past, but the way that he dealt with it was with a greater degree of serenity. Did you see any parallels or similarities when you took on this role in Taking Woodstock? Emile Hirsch: I think that in some way, I didn't actually see continuity. I think what struck me was a marked difference in ultimately how the two of them kind of respond. McCandless makes the realization that happiness is only real when shared at the end of the film, but by and large that the actions that he's taken that would lead to the end of his life have been more about self-discovery and being alone. But kind of the ultimate cathartic moment with Billy is so much more about the community of Woodstock and almost the family of memories that he has and kind of coming to terms with that. Cinematical: I'm a huge fan of both Into the Wild and Speed Racer. Having done this big sort of potential blockbuster and then something more intimate, do you feel a sense of freedom when picking roles? Or is there by necessity a sense of strategy to your career if only so that you can do more different kinds of characters in the future?Hirsch: Sometimes I find myself scheming about my career and being a careerist and fancying myself a little game-player, right? But the reality is it never goes according to whatever scheme you could kind of hatch up because the way that business works and the way that the entertainment world works with movies is that they just come along randomly and spontaneously. It's not like after Into the Wild I went, oh, I'll make Speed Racer! After Speed Racer, all of a sudden Milk popped up; I wasn't like, oh, I need to do a cool supporting role. I wasn't thinking anything like that. So thinking in terms of a careerist perspective is tempting and it's kind of inevitable, to be honest, but very rarely does it actually follow through. Most of the time, you're just going to follow a different path, because the very nature of what you do dictates that". Source: www.cinematical.com

I think she's so talented and so perfect", the 24-year-old movie star tells OK! Magazine about Stewart. "She's a great conversationalist, very inquisitive. She's got a little bit of an edge, too, though, so she's not a pushover. She's strong and cool. She's beautiful, she's smart, and she's emotional, too."
