Kristen Stewart once opened up about the dark side of such overwhelming fame to Blackbook via Access. Drawing a comparison to Robert Pattinson’s Edward Cullen, the actress said, “Edward is actually a really good parallel to fame. As a vampire, he has a sad, desolate life — fame is the same.” She continued, “Nothing about being a celebrity is desirable. I’m an actor. It’s bizarre to me that everybody’s so obsessive. I don’t want to be a movie star like Angelina Jolie.”

The Snow White and the Hunstman star then opened up about her discomfort with being among crowds of fans. She said, “I’m uncomfortable with crowds. I look out there at a thousand people, and I realize they could rush me and assassinate me. No security could protect me. Ostensibly, they’re fans, but I think about them turning on me.”

Further speaking of her character, Bella Swan from Twilight films, Kristen Stewart added, “When I first began doing interviews, I was shy about saying how much I respected the Twilight books and the role of Bella. It was almost as if I was ashamed to be doing these films. Quite the opposite. This is a challenging and great role, and I’m so in awe of the writing and the novels. Now, I’m comfortable enough to say that.”

Fame can sometimes be overwhelming and scary; Kristen Stewart’s fear was legit in that respect.
