Kristen's interview with Mileno (Mexico)

It seems as thought you’re not very happy with your new found celebrity status.

Happy? I don’t know. No. I’m not, I’m mean it’s not bad, but I don’t enjoy being the center of attention. When we have a red carpet and there’s fans screaming, I get extremely nervous. Why do they do that? I can’t understand the attention, and how sometimes reality and a movie can’t be told apart. I’m not Bella. And the truth is, I’m very very shy, and I’d rather not go through some of that stuff.

Friends like Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner? You’re one envied girl.

(Laughs). We spend so much time together on set that I think it’s normal to hang out together afterwards, and try to have fun. We’re young and we need to release stress sometimes (laughs).

Is there ever tension on set? Seems like you’re such a young cast.

We are. The normal stress when you make a film is not easy, and the action scenes are very stressful. We were directed by Bill Condon this time, who is great and who guided us in every step of the way, through the most difficult scenes. There was no tension with him ever, he knew how to make us comfortable. Of all the Twilight directors, Bill has been by far the best.

What advice would you give to young teens who want to pursue acting?

If that’s what you really want, you need to try. Don’t be disappointed if it doesn’t happen. Always have a back-up plan. My back-up plan was to write screenplays

And how do you feel now that Twilight is over? Will you miss Bella?

No, it’s time to say goodbye to that stage of my life. Actors have all these bittersweet feelings when they’re saying goodbye to a character they’ve played for long. In a way, it’s a huge compliment that people will associate Bella with me for the rest of their lives, on the other hand I need to do other things too. And that’s why I’ve chose different roles that take me away from her, like The Runaways, On The Road and Snow White. I wouldn’t want to be Bella Swan forever.
