My translation ; ) :

"Pretty, but confused.
Princess, Dark Lady, or Preppie?

Pretty, she's pretty: perfect skin, long-limbed (1,72, 50 kg), icing eyes and a shy and charming smile...

Kristen Stewart seems to be out of place on the red carpet. Her style appeared confused. She doesn't seem to be comfortable with either long dresses either short dresses.
She wavers the most on shoes and on their choices..
We hope she will prepare herself better for the next movie, The Runaways..

New York Style: Bon Ton rètro. NB: A night dress and a day shoes.
Paris Style: Lolita. NB: Shoes are too heavy.
Los Angeles Style: Princess. NB: Her Cinderella back-combed hair's exaggerate.
London Style: Groopie. NB: Fetish shoes and schoolgirl-look?
Mexico City Style: Preppie Street. NB: her brown shoes doesn't match with the rest.
Los Angeles Style: Mediterranean Sexy. NB: for once she did it well!"

"No Shame in Loving Twilight"

The Washington Post has a great article on intelligent, literary women loving the Twilight Saga and not being ashamed.

All across the country, there were women who managed to avoid Stephenie Meyer’s
series about a star-crossed human/vampire teen couple. (Vampire Edward lusts for
mortal Bella, but also for her blood; the books are less plot than endless
yearning). They resisted the first three books — refused to read them, didn’t
know they existed — and the lunacy that was “Breaking Dawn.”

“Twilight”
came for the tweens, then for the moms of tweens, then for the co-workers who
started wearing those ridiculous Team Jacob shirts, and the resisters said
nothing, because they thought “Twilight” could not come for them. They were too
literary. They didn’t do vampires. They were feminists.

One minute
you’re a functioning member of society, the next you’re succumbing to the dark
side, wondering how deep you’re willing to go — and what that longing says about
you.

In “Twilight,” Edward Cullen waffled between wooing and eating new
girl Bella Swan. He chose love. In “New Moon,” the darkest installment of the
series, Edward becomes convinced that his girlfriend would be safer without him,
so he dumps her in order to protect her and then vanishes. Bella, catatonic from
the pain, finds solace in Jacob Black, the devoted friend who has just learned
he is a werewolf, and their relationship grows deeper, and this description is
utterly, utterly useless because none of it gets at what the “Twilight” series
is actually about, which is being 17.

It’s a time capsule to the
breathless period when the world could literally end depending on whether your
lab partner touched your hand, when every conversation was so agonizing and so
thrilling (and the border between the two emotions was so thin), and your heart
was bigger and more delicate than it is now, and everything was just so much
more.


It’s just a movie. It’s just a movie. It’s just a movie.

It’s just a movie — well, movie and books — but it’s a movie that’s come
to represent such big things, from the future of girls to what women really want
(they want men who will shut up and come to watch “New Moon,” and not ask how
many points they’re getting for the evening).

Men feel perfectly
comfortable slathering their chests in greasepaint and screaming like half-naked
ninnies at football games, but women too often over-explain their passions,
apologizing for being too girly or liking something too trashy.

The
grown women of “Twilight” will no longer apologize. They will go to those
midnight “New Moon” screenings.

But as for telling them how silly
they’re being, how Edward is not real and neither is Jacob, how their brains are
rotting and their sense of reality is being distorted and this obsession is
crazy, just crazy? There’s really no need.

They already know.

Brazilian interview with Robert, Kristen and Taylor

-They ask her what she expects from New Moon (I honestly don't know wth they meant by asking her THAT question but whatever) and she says that she's glad that it's a totally different story and that it's weird to think about this story without Edward. She says that it's a mature point of view of the same story.
-Then they ask her what this movie has that makes it so fascinating, and she says she doesn't know, that maybe people relate to the love story. She says she doesn't know why it's so big, she thinks it's a good story but that's it.
-They ask her how the books changed her life. She says that she could share what she loves to do with a lot of people, and that's not a chance that many actors have.
-And then she says that she's not as nervous as she was last year because it's not her first time anymore and she knows what to expect from the red carpets now.

Kristen Stewart Fashion - We Pick Our Favorite Look

New Moon Co-star praises Rob and Kristen

ROBERT PATTINSON and KRISTEN STEWART are still down-to-earth, regular people despite their international superstardom, according to a NEW MOON co-star.

And even though they have become fantasy fodder for teens all over the globe, actress Justine Wachsberger reveals they are both still shy and unassuming.
The star, who plays vampire employee Giana in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, tells OK! magazine, "They're really normal and down-to-earth. They don't think they're superstars or anything.

"(And Kristen) is down-to-earth, she's not one of those girls who is trying so hard to fit in. She is who she is. She's saying, 'You either like me for who I am, or you don't'. She doesn't fit into that Hollywood mould." (MJ/WNWCKO/LR)

Kristen Prout (Lucy) Talks about Eclipse and Robsten Rumors to PopEater.ca

So 'New Moon' is breaking records today. Have you felt the mania yet, even though your film hasn't been released yet?

"For sure. I think the real point when I felt complete and utter mania, was when I showed up to the 'New Moon' premiere. And there were fans, this was on Monday, there were fans that had been there since Thursday, camping out in tents. You walk out onto the carpet and your heart just stops, because it's like winding all the way down the street. There are these people who are screaming and they're crying. And Rob (Pattinson) and Taylor (Lautner) and Kristin (Stewart) show up and people are just bawling their eyes out. And you're like, what is going on here? This movie hasn't even come out, but still, I had people just screaming and asking for my autograph. And I get recognized in stores. It just goes to show you that, it's not even out yet and people have done their research already, and you're like, oh my goodness! They're so obsessed!"

I hesitate to even ask this, but what do you think about all the buzz around whether or not Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are a couple?

"Thank you so much for asking it that way. On the red carpet, you should have heard it. The questions that were being asked. But at the end of the day, it's funny. People want to believe that they are a couple so badly, because of the Bella and Edward storyline. It is what it is. When you're in the public eye, people tend to view you as your characters. But people just need to keep in mind that they're both people. And they both have their own dynamic that's completely separate from being a vampire and a human. [laughs] They're two actors...they work in the same industry. They have a lot in common to sort of talk about on set. They certainly get along very well. But the speculation about whether or not they're a couple, I mean, who can really say? It changes every day. The media's opinion on it. I don't know if at any one point it's accurate."

"I think they're handling it very well. They have a lot of fun with it. [laughs] At the end of the day you just have to focus on relationships and be able to laugh about stuff like that...they're very private people. They're extremely private people. And I mean, they'll do what they want and if they're not a couple, they're not a couple. They're just good friends. And if they are a couple, they make an amazing couple. At the end of the day, it is what it is."

Rob and Kristen Discuss Christmas Plans

Actor Robert Pattinson, and his “New Moon” co-star Kristen Stewart are still the most popular rumored couple of recent times. There is always some sort of story to read about them, such as quiet meets, or they’ve been seen holding hands.

And according to entertainmentandshowbiz.com, there appears to be another bit of news about them recently. The latest news is that in between film shoots and other media commitments, the rumored couple has been making their Christmas plans.

The buzz now, is that Robert and Kristen are planning a quiet Christmas date at home, preferably in the English countryside somewhere. A source from OK magazine, says that Pattinson has even enlisted the help of his mom, Clare, to find a cottage.

Team 411 reviews 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon'

As huge fans of Kristen Stewart - admittedly secondary fans of the Twilight series because of that association - the ladies at Team 411 certainly have a thing or two to say about The Twilight Saga: New Moon - for better or worse. Of course, you've probably already read the swimmingly positive and content review of mine over at Twilight Examiner, but here's a fresh (and thorough) perspective on the film.

It’s no secret I have no great love for the Twilight books. I’ve read them, I
kinda like them. Mostly I like them in spite of their own flaws. We all have
guilty pleasures. Mine is Twilight (and Steven Segal movies). That said, I will
try and leave my source-material issues out of my review of New Moon. It is also
no secret that I consider Twilight: The Movie to be pretty bad. Not outright
awful, not without some redeeming factors, but pretty bad nonetheless. It was
cheesy. It was cheap. It had the worst SFX I’ve seen in a long, long time. So
the bar for New Moon was set pretty low. I had only two expectations of New
Moon—that it improve upon Twilight and make the franchise fans happy—and I’ve
had plenty of time to stew over the second Saga movie and decide if it met those
expectations. The answer is yes. Yes, New Moon was vastly superior to Twilight
and yes, the fans were happy ($258 million happy—that’s a lot of happy). Right
from the outset, it is a successful film. I award it 100 points. I will now
deduct and award more points based on my own system of easily-divisible numbers
which have no relative bearing on each other. So let’s break New Moon down.

Overall look of the movie: +100 points

New Moon looked a bajillion times better than Twilight. It just plain looked like they spent more
money. Having a director familiar with action-y movies and adaptations didn’t hurt, either. Chris Weitz made excellent use of local scenery, as well as Kristen Stewart’s pretty. She looked so pretty. Like—so, so pretty. C-Dub clearly loved photographing her. Even at her lowest, Bella looked prettier than the rest of us combined.

Costumes, hair, and makeup: -125 points for costumes, +50 for hair/makeup

Oh the wardrobe. Where to start? Edward’s
grandpa suit? His old man shoes? How about Alice running around in one painter’s
smock after another? Or her weird penchant for scarves. Did Ashley Greene have
hickies throughout production that had to be hidden? What was with the scarves?
The only acceptable scarf-moment for Alice was the headscarf she wore while in
Italy. Nix the rest of the scarves. Bella’s clothes were okay, but her purple
sweater thingie from the first high school scene was unacceptable. And the
jorts. Dear lord, the jorts. Jorts (jean shorts, in case you didn’t know) are
never acceptable. Why not just put the wolfpack in sweats and track pants? But
no, we get the Jorts Brigade. There was also an abundance of plaid. I get it.
Plaid is big with the Twi-cast. But there was so much plaid in that movie I kept
seeing the “They’ve gone plaid!” scene from Spaceballs in my head. Have the
people of Forks never heard of stripes? Or solids? As for hair and makeup…
Makeup was so much better. The vampire-white was much less pancake-y this time
around—Edward’s face could actually move! The wiggery was better than Twilight,
though Jacob’s wig was ridiculous (hello Static Guard!) and Jasper’s hair
continues to be a tragedy. Still, excepting Jasper’s hair because it was
actually worse than before, everyone else’s was either the same as before or
better.

Special effects: -120 points for the wolves, +85 point for everything else

Um, this was bad. I was so second-hand embarrassed for
Chris Weitz. This was not his fault. He did the best he could with what he had.
He just didn’t have enough time or money. New Moon’s budget was nearly $20
million more than Twilight’s and it still wasn’t enough. And it showed.
Painfully. The wolves were the worst. The animation was atrocious. When they
moved, you could see each sector of the model moving independently of the other.
And speaking of movement, had the animators ever seen a real wolf move? These
CGI wolves bounded around like rabbits. Terrible. I could go on over how bad
these wolves were, but suffice it to say, they sucked. Big ups to the improved
vampire effects, though. The speed effect was SO much better, and the sparkle
effect was, too. I really liked the way Jane’s “gift” was realized, appearing to
lift Edward off his feet in pain. The Felix/Edward fight scene was decent. It
owed a LOT to the Nightcrawler attack in X-Men 2, but other than some minor
visual-plagiarism, the fight sequences were much better than Twilight.

Music: +100 points

It pains me to say it, because generally I
like Carter Burwell, but Twilight’s score was brutal. Epically cheesy. So
Alexandre Desplat barely had to exert himself to top it. But since he did exert
himself, we ended up with a lovely, haunting score in New Moon. There were
moments where the music veered into the overwrought and contributed to the
cheese on the screen, but generally this score is way better, and the song from
the meadow scene is what Bella’s lullaby should have been in Twilight. As for
the soundtrack, can you say “awesomespice”? Not only is the soundtrack great,
but song placement was crucial. Lykke Li’s “Possibility” fit so perfectly into
the “months passing” montage, and Thom Yorke’s “Hearing Damage” made the
Victoria chase one of my favorite sequences in the whole film

NEW MOON STARS AND DIRECTOR REFLECT IN THIS WEEK'S ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

Entertainment Weekly has sent to me some tips of the new magazine out this week! Don't miss it!

(Kristen, Rob and Tay Covers are gorgeous!)

Highlights from ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY’s December 4, 2009 issue

(on newsstands nationwide Friday, November 27):

“I DON’T KNOW HOW THE BEATLES FELT BUT I IMAGINE IT WAS CLOSE TO THIS,” ROB PATTINSON TELLS ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

NEW MOON STARS AND DIRECTOR REFLECT

NEW YORK – Hot off the tail of the New Moon premiere, this week’s Entertainment Weekly explores the phenomenon that is the Twilight series.

Chris Weitz opens the door to his beach house looking like a wilted rose. He’s unshaven, pale and wearing clothes he appears to have found wadded in a ball on his bedroom floor. It’s exactly the way you’d expect to find the director the morning after his movie The Twilight Saga: The New Moon opened around the world to numbers no one thought possible. But Weitz isn’t recovering from a long night of revelry. He’s just exhausted. In the last ten days, he’s been in more time zones than the sun, on the last stretch of promotional duties for his movie. “I’m at the point of physical collapse,” says Weitz, 40. “Hopefully I will now lapse into obscurity. That’s my plan.”

We can think of 140 million reasons that’s not going to happen – all of them dollars. On opening weekend, New Moon made the kind of money usually reserved for comic-book heroes and boy wizards, breaking records for midnight screenings and Friday box office. More significantly, Weitz has made the highest grossing female-oriented movie since James Cameron opened Titanic in 1997. And, with Sandra Bullock scoring a career best opening with $34.5 million for The Blind Side, he’s taken part in one of the most female-driven weekends in history--one that should wake up whatever Hollywood executives still underestimate the spending power of the purse. Still, Weitz won’t make any grand claims for himself. “The degree of credit I can take is limited,” he says. “I’m just the glorified conductor.”

OK, he’s got a point. Those hundreds of tween girls, and grown women for that matter, that lined up days in advance of New Moon’s Los Angeles premiere weren’t sleeping on concrete to see Weitz. They were desperate for Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson and Taylor Lautner--who, despite the microscopic level of scrutiny they’re under, still seem to appreciate their supporters. “I would rather spend tonight hanging with the fans than answering any more questions,” said Stewart at the premiere. Pattinson added, “I don’t know how the Beatles felt but I imagine it was close to this. Very few human beings will ever get to experience the love we feel at Twilight events.” That visceral, obsessive amour for everything in Stephenie Meyer’s literary world has turned a $50 million teenage melodrama into an event that knows no geographic boundaries. The global take for the weekend? $258 million. Says producer Wyck Godfrey, “It’s a worldwide cultural phenomenon that no one could have predicted.”

Pop culture has been bursting with blood-suckers of late and audiences are clearly responding- as evidenced by the success of CW’s Vampire Diaries, HBO’s True Blood and a slew of vampire novels which hit the best-seller lists in the wake of Twilight. But what Hollywood has to figure out now is what to do with this audience next. “It’s great that the greenlighters in town have realized that little girls go to the movies,” say MGM’s president of marketing Michael Vollman. “But this genre has worked forever. To Sir With Love was an angsty girl movie.”

So what will this fickle, yet incredibly devoted audience turn to next? Disney and producer Godfrey think it might be… fairies. They’ve scooped up Aprilynne Pike’s best-selling young adult novel Wings. New Regency is banking on a new novel from Ann Brashares (author of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) about a college couple who turn out to be soul mates who’ve been loving and losing each other for centuries. And Lionsgate is hoping tweens line up for an adaptation of author Suzanne Collin’s The Hunger Games, about a dystopian world where teenagers fight to the death. “Some will work and some won’t,” Summit’s co-chairman and CEO Rob Friedman says of the girl-driven projects. “There will be a lot of impersonators. But it won’t be the Twilight Saga and it won’t have the fan base. Twilight is unique. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

Neither has director Weitz, who’s still recovering. He’s defiantly off the hook for the third Twilight movie, Eclipse, which David Slade (30 Days of Night) is already editing for release next summer. But what if Meyer and Summit come calling again for the fourth and final novel, Breaking Dawn? The studio still hasn’t decided if the book should be one film or two. But if they call, will Weitz answer? “I’d do it for Stephenie, Rob, Taylor, and Kristen. I feel a great deal of gratitude for those people,” says Weitz. “But I don’t think I could do another press tour like we did. I just think I would die.” Careful, you might come back as a vampire.

Entertainment Weekly also showcases the Breakout Beauties & Beasts of New Moon that have growing fan-bases of their own. The newly anointed stars include Alex Meraz, Dakota Fanning, Ashley Greene, Chaske Spencer, Michael Sheen, Anna Kendrick, and Charlie Bewley.

The road to independence

She might have ousted Miley Cyrus from her mystifying position as the World's Most Famous Teenage Girl but 19-year-old Twilight star Kristen Stewart is in denial. "People don't really recognise me," she smiles, knowing it sounds unhinged. "I think I just look different in person or something. I'm also not very approachable." She laughs hard and knowingly.

Take the outfit she wore to the Teen Choice Awards earlier this year (where she won Best Actress Drama for Twilight): a Rock & Republic dress, the skirt section of which comprised only silver spikes. It didn't take an expert to deduce the message: "Don't stand so close to me."

Stewart has already earned a reputation in the media for being difficult, but it seems a rather uncharitable label. In my meetings with her, she has been fidgety, yes, uncomfortable, check, awkward, always, but never rude, dismissive or arrogant.

"I do feel that nowadays everyone perceives you the same way," she says, pondering a Facebook/Twitter age in which she does not participate.

"I prefer something I can touch! But now everybody knows everything about you. Even your parents have to know where you are because of course you have a cellphone.


They can always reach you. You can't even have a private life away from your family, it's like everything is very hands-on."

But she also says she's far more confident these days as The Twilight Saga: New Moon continues its run at the top of box offices around the world.

"I think I've got a lot more comfortable with talking about myself. I couldn't finish a sentence because I was so concerned about how it was going to sound and I didn't want to come across insincere about something that I really love to do," Stewart says. "I realised that instead or refraining from saying things, I should have said, 'I put my heart and soul into this thing and I love it' instead of the really logical, over-analytical reasons why I love it."

Certainly Stewart likes the choices afforded her by Twilight and is too smart to complain about any downside. "It's easier now to do things I really like, like an independent movie that nobody sees. Now it'll be: 'Oh, let's go see Bella in this stripper movie!' It'll be crazy." She laughs hard, like she's loving it.

The "stripper movie" in question, Welcome to the Rileys - starring The Sopranos' James Gandolfini and last year's surprise Best Actress Academy Award nominee Melissa Leo - is one she terms the "most fruitful life-changing movie experience I've ever had. It was the hardest subject-matter. I play a very broken young girl working in a strip club."

Meanwhile, in Adventureland, which came out earlier this and is now out on DVD, she plays a troubled teen in the 80s, and in another film, The Cake Eaters, which opens here on Thursday, her character has Friedreich's ataxia.

"It's a total deterioration of your muscle control, a very debilitating disease," she explains. "She's just about to be in a wheelchair and is fighting for that last bit of independence from her mother. It's an optimistic, triumphant story."

Next year she will star as Joan Jett in Runaways, based on rock icon Jett's teen girl group.

Stewart started acting at 9 and insists there was "never a grand plan", either to pursue a film career (her parents are both in the business) or to manage it once begun. Her Australian mother Jules is a script supervisor preparing to direct her first film, K-11 (starring Stewart), her father John a TV producer. When a talent scout spotted Stewart in her school's Christmas play, her parents grimaced.

"They said, 'We don't want to be stage-mums'," she recalls.

Her father was particularly dispirited at the prospect. "He was a stage manager then and was like, 'oh my God, I don't want my kid doing this'."

Their contrary pre-teen was having none of it. "My parents were reluctant and I just remembered thinking: 'Actually that might be really cool. I might want to go on a few auditions. I might work."'

She auditioned relentlessly for a year without booking a single job. "It took a really long time until I was totally over it and then came my last audition.

I went to it and I didn't even want to. My mum said: 'Well, this is the last one. You don't have to go to any more.' And that was the first movie I got."

The Safety of Objects, released in 2001, starred a veritable Who's Who of leading ladies, including Glenn Close and Patricia Clarkson, who played her character's mother. The following year Stewart won the role of Jodie Foster's daughter in Panic Room, an experience which cemented her belief she was doing the right thing.

"I think being 10-years-old on one of my first movies and spending a month on it with Jodie Foster had an enormous effect on the way I work, probably unbeknownst to me at the time. At least in retrospect, I noticed it. Jodie Foster is the only one who totally shines out in my mind who really taught me a lot."

When she was 12, and working regularly, Stewart left school to be homeschooled by her mother. "I loved it. Independent study is for me." She worked consistently throughout her teens in films from gritty independents like 2004's Undertow opposite Jamie Bell, the Jon Favreau-directed comedy Zathura: A Space Adventure, horror film The Messengers and Sean Penn's Into The Wild.

On film sets now, Stewart - like Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson - is delivered from take to take under a gigantic golf umbrella to deter paparazzi and fans alike. The call-sheet from those sets, the one delivered daily to the cast and crew employed on a film, lists her under a pseudonym. And she cannot set foot in public, particularly with Pattinson, without the event being disseminated in its entirety from teen fan-sites to snarky grown-up publications.

Do she and Pattinson ever compare notes on the Twilight phenomenon? "The funny thing is we haven't really talked about it. Although we can commiserate and be like, 'ugh, it's crazy'."

While Stewart has been distracted by her work, the fans have remained focused on the film and its actors. They've been ravenous to know every small detail. Stewart got a better handle on dealing with all that attention when she stopped trying to be so guarded about what she said.

"I'm always going to keep what's important to me," she says. "People are always gonna want more and I completely understand, considering that we're playing characters that are so coveted by so many people. I get why they want to know more about us and they want us to be together [romantically] and all of that. I just have to sort of not think about it."

CLAIM: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart Want Baby

So what’s next for Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart after the box office success of “The Twilight Saga: New Moon”?

“Rob & Kristen Eager for Baby” announces the always (ahem) reliable National Enquirer.
Oh, boy.

“Great news!” the tab trumpets. “A baby ‘vampire’ will be winging its way to ‘Twilight’ co-stars – and off-screen lovers – Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson.”

Yeah, this is going to be even sillier than we thought.

A “source close to the couple” tells the tabloid, “Kristen and Rob want to have kids.” “While they initially felt they were too young, those fears seem to have evaporated,” the source continues, “They feel having a baby would cement their love.”

A “close source” confides the two “would like to be married before having a baby… but if Kristen gets pregnant before they get hitched, that’s OK, too.”

Curious about how the Enquirer backs up its bombshell assertions?

“Back in July, an Australian publication claimed Kristen was pregnant… it turned out she was not pregnant… but they’re working on it.”

You mean this Australian publication? The one that was – as the Enquirer admits – 100% wrong?

Oh, but that’s not all! “The starry-eyed stars were recently snapped holding hands at a Paris airport and were seen cuddling at a concert in August,” the Enquirer whispers.

Cuddling and holding hands??

Gossip Cop takes it back. That’s EXACTLY how vampire babies are made. We remember from vampire sex ed.

Kristen Stewart is 'fearless'

Kristen Stewart is "fearless" about fashion.
The 'Twilight Saga: New Moon' has had something of a style transformation in recent months since making it big as an A-list Hollywood star and her stylist Tara Swennen says she's willing to try anything.

She added: "She's comfortable in her own style and has a natural edge to her, but when she's in the mood she likes to go elegant."

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana also agree, saying: "It's Kristen's desire to experiment that puts her in a league of her own, as she effortlessly manages to pull of an uber-cool look every time."

The pair are such big fans of the new film they even co-hosted a special screening of it in New York.

The men behind Proenza Schouler also said they thought 19-year-old Kristen had a "strong individualism" and "a self-awareness beyond her years".

Kristen has previously spoken about how much her style has changed.

She said: "I have grown so much. The biggest change for me has been sort of opening up."
