Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed´s new friends

"Twilight and New Moon fans all wish to know about the relationship between the stars of the movie, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.Bild.de reports that Kristen denies that she is dating Robert; she said that she loves him “as a friend”. The rumors that the pair are in a relationship together have been further fueled by the fact that they are consistently spotted out with each other.Kristen Stewart who is dating Michael Angarano has further added, “She loves Robert as a friend, and of course she thinks he’s really hot.” She said that having a great relationship helps with the onscreen chemistry, and makes it that more believable".

"Loving Kristen Stewart's newfound choice of friends. Just slightly different than her previous after-filming patterns of hanging with Michael Angarano or Nikki Reed—also L.A. locals, no?K.Stew and Dakota Fanning hung out after being in the recording studio all day, and we're shocked to see Kris actually smiling.Rob and Kristen have very much stayed "in touch." More to come about that tomorrow.Rob supposed to be celibate or something before Kris ditched the boyf? No friggin' way! Too much Robbie hotness, and our head is bursting! But simmer down, guys, this is a gossip column. And besides, what are we supposed to do here, pretend these hot babes' hormones aren't imploding in overdrive all over the world, literally? Yeah, right."

And if all goes as expected, Reed will have to go through the process of becoming Rosalie a couple more times (if New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn movies are given the go-ahead). Reed's ready to do so, even though it's a rather arduous process.Reed's been acting in films since bursting onto the scene in Thirteen, a powerful coming-of-age story which she not only starred in but also wrote. Well-spoken and passionate about where she wants to go in life, Reed told me in our interview she's working on more writing projects with hopes of eventually taking a seat in the director's chair at some point down the line. But for now, Twilight promotional duties are keeping her busy.You're playing a vampire who's one of the most beautiful women in the world.
Nikki Reed: "No! You know, the only person that makes me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world… [Jokingly yelling to Kristen Stewart's boyfriend in the next room] Michael Angarano makes me feel like the most beautiful person in the world! But I should really learn - we're in a state right now, you and I - where I still don’t really know how to approach that question. Maybe in like a year down the line I will have like a set answer."

Megan Fox: beyond her pin-up image

"Fox is a walking bundle of contradictions, who in spite of her sharp tongue keeps pushing forward in a career which pushes out and then chews up girls like her every year. "I'm kind of a very aggressive human being and I was a very scary teenage girl," she tells me in her opening gambit. Starring in the upcoming Transformers movie Revenge of the Fallen opposite Shia LaBeouf, Fox, whose ancestors come from Tipperary, seems very at home in this macho scenario, where the special effects are the stars of the show."I'm making a movie for the masses about robots, I don't need to be a method actor here," she laughs. "But, listen, I get burned constantly, every time I open my mouth, people refuse to understand the intent of what I'm trying to say. But I made a decision early on not to be a bullshit person, because this is a bullshit industry and I need to hold on to my soul and my integrity. I can't compromise and become part of the bullshit and, if that means I get burned for the first few years of my career, then that's what it means.""I think, for now, I'm definitely labelled in the pin-up category. I haven't given people a reason to take my work seriously yet, which is my responsibility. I think the expectation for me, as far as my ability as an actress goes, is very low. I feel like that means I can only ever be an over-achiever when people expect so little from me. I don't have a specific image that I'm hoping to achieve. I just really want it to, at some point, be okay for women to be sexy because I think that's a power, a gift that we were given by God or the universe or whatever. Men were given brute strength. They were given the physical ability to overpower, but we were given sensuality and our feminine wiles"."Don't be afraid of your vagina. Don't fear your gifts. I don't think there's anything wrong with being sexy or being in your underwear, or being whatever. I think you need to have thoughts in your mind to go behind that image."Fox's next movie, Jennifer's Body, was written by Diablo Cody. She and the porn star Jenna Jameson are her role models because of the work they've done, their attitudes to their own sexuality and how they have used the industry which has more usually used and destroyed women.
"Diablo is like a post-feminist, strong woman who is not afraid of being sexual. Her book Candy Girl about her year as a stripper, I enjoyed so much and I admire her intensely. It's all about how powerful your shell is as a female"."I'm obsessed with Jenna Jameson, not in a sexual way, but for the same reason I love Diablo. She took an industry that is not kind to women and she pretty much owns it now. She is a very successful, very shrewd, business-minded woman who used something that people think makes women weak and made herself extremely strong."Given the image she has cultivated for herself as a femme fatale, it is interesting to hear Fox admit how naïve she is around men and how her usually sharp instincts have not always served her well in the dating department".

Kristen Stewart inside Bella's head

-"What are the changes in this second installment? Your character Bella takes risks again…

-Well, she loses what basically gives her the drive to do anything in her whole life. She loses the man she’s in love with, but she also loses her entire life plan, and she’s so young to have to be forced into a decision like that. It’s just a glorified, elaborate version of the worst breakup you’ve ever been through. All of a sudden you question everything. All of a sudden you know nothing and you’re dropped in the middle of a freezing cold ocean.
-It’s not that she’s incredibly introverted. She’s just yet to have found a connection that is truthful. She’s a seeker of the truth. She’s not one to get wrapped up in something that is a fantasy. She doesn’t set herself up for disappointment. So that’s what makes the story with her and Edward so compelling, in that this is a girl that normally wouldn’t do something this crazy. -So what does Kristen prefer, the werewolf or the vampire?
-Kristen shouldn’t open her mouth (Laughs). Kristen is entirely torn. Kristen should stop using her name in the third person.-You were virtually unknown when you shot Twilight. How has your life changed since its phenomenal success?-My life hasn’t changed. Most circumstances I find myself in are different than they were a year ago, but I myself haven’t changed...however a normal 18-year-old girl would change in a year. But it makes things so much easier. I would do it for free every day [even] if nobody saw it. I cannot describe how good it feels to actually have something that is truly into your heart and soul actually affecting people. And that’s amazing. So that’s the biggest change.Adam Lambert trying to bite Catherine Hardwicke's neck.

-What was it like coming back to a different director?

-As an actor, you don’t work with the same director on every film. And this, it’s a continuation. It’s the same story but it is a different movie. I love Catherine (Hardwicke). She’s a dear friend of mine, but Chris (Weitz) – it just works out.
Robert Pattinson is just so cute. So is Taylor Lautner. That’s what I would tell someone who doesn’t know about the movie yet". Source: www.metronews.ca

Joseph Gordon-Levitt: enjoying his vagueness

JOSEPH GORDON LEVITT:

APPEARANCE: 4
L: I had a crush on JGL when he first appeared on “Third Rock from the Sun.” This is because JGL’s a tasty treat, even though he seems skinny, like I’d crush him if I gave him a hug or rode him reverse cowgirl. It’s a risk I’m willing to take, however. I like his whole face when he’s smiling and I would even accept him with short hair. His photo shoot with Claudia Schiffer was the photo shoot of my dirtiest dreams. And I’m blown away that he’s this fashion icon for GQ now—who knew? Let me shoop to the next man in the three-piece suit. I want to take him to my formal work functions and crumple his Armani in the women’s lounge with my burning passion.

PORTFOLIO: 3.5 [My personal note is 5]

I: He’s chosen odd projects! After Third Rock he kind of disappeared for a while and he was back in the game with “10 Things” which was cute! But I wonder if his lack of mainstream work is his conscious choice, or if Hollywood just doesn’t like him.
L: I see him in these odd movies like “Brick” and “Mysterious Skin” and I forget that he was in “10 Things I Hate About You.” I heard that this summer he’s coming out with some indie flick and “G.I. Joe” (he’s going to play the fucking Cobra Commander!), so I’m kind of relieved that he’s not above doing mainstream stuff—it makes him not seem snobby.

CHOICES: 4
L: I enjoy his choices! However, the rumors that he’s friends with Evan Rachel Wood gross me out. But anyway, I like that he went to school for history and French poetry (?!?), which seems random, but he dropped out. He should go back and just finish it up. I’m digging his choice of movie roles—he’s striking up a good balance with me.

PERSONALITY: 3.5
I: Does JGL seem out of touch with people our age? I can’t really imagine him hanging out with my friends. What would he have to offer a party? Is he even well-socialized enough to know to bring a dish and/or beverage? I don’t see him getting drunk and being wacky, I don’t see him livin’ it up with the bros and watching the game with Nick Lachey and M.McConaughey.

ROMANTIC POTENTIAL: 5
L: I would totally want JGL as my boyfriend! He’s good looking and smart, and worldly and sexy (judging by the aforementioned CS photo shoot), and he seems like he has a dry sense of humor that I would enjoy.I: I think he’s proper boyfriend material! I bet he would plan sexy, romantic dates and really think outside the box. I wonder what he’s like in the boudoir! We must put “find out what JGL is like in bed” on our To-Do. I hope he wouldn’t be whiny and insecure!L: I’m enjoying your vagueness. I like JGL just the way he is, a la Mark Darcy and Bridget Jones. I hope he continues with his balancing act—I want him to do a summer blockbuster and follow it up with an obscure indie flick. Additionally, I’d like to see him continue his well dressed GQ b&w photo shoots. I also advise that he prove to me that he’s not whiny and insecure".

Kristen Stewart: Joan Jett's buddy

Kristen Stewart characterized as glam rocker Joan Jett.
Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning were spotted at an LA recording studio where they're preparing for shooting on their new movie The Runaways.
"Stewart has been spotted working with a vocal coach for her role in the film - do I hear the sounds of another celebrity album? I hope not. However, even I have to admit that Stewart is a good choice for the role of Jett.

Says MTV.com of the film:
Joan Jett herself has signed on to be the film’s executive producer, and Stewart revealed to us that not only is she currently hard at work picking up old guitar riffs, but she’s also been spending quality time with the durable rock goddess herself.“Yeah, I spent New Year’s with her,” Kristen said of her new buddy Joan Jett. “I spent, like hours, just talking to her.” Source: www.examiner.com


Kristen Stewart has denied in several occasions to press she was dating her co-star Robert Pattinson.
