Kristen makes a cameo in Rita Ora's 'You Only Love Me' music video

 


And there's some fabulous cameos also! How did you involve all of them?

"So the video is really special to me because again, it's the opening of my new world that I want everyone to be involved in, and I asked some of my friends. Also, I went through my sort of dream guest list. Like if I was writing out a guest list for a wedding, it'd be like, who would I really love to send me a good luck video? So I just asked the people that I'm truly obsessed with and fans of and they all wanted to get involved. So, it was really lovely.

We've got Kristen Stewart in there who I love so much, one of my bestest friends. Chelsea Handler, who's one of the funniest people on the planet. Jodie Turner-Smith, Icon, British. For me, amazing. And Lindsay Lohan. I mean, who doesn't love Lindsay Lohan? She is like iconic. Hello!

And so again, it's all women who I love and I wanted it to feel like a really empowering woman sort of video, good luck message. So, yay! And of course, Sharon Stone also plays my mom and it's really fun. And so we've just created a mini movie for you guys because again, remember this is my dream wedding. Or is it…?"

Kristen will direct three music videos for band Boygenius

 

Excerpt

HANGING OUT WITH Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, and Phoebe Bridgers — a.k.a. boygenius — you learn a lot about three of the most fascinating people in rock. For instance: Baker calls her barbecue the best $400 she’s ever spent. Dacus is currently watching The Sopranos for the first time. Bridgers loves Christian-era Bob Dylan. And Kristen Stewart is directing three music videos for the band.

The band's new album comes out on 31 March 2023.

Video: Kristen interviews Vicky Krieps for her movie 'Corsage'

 

Kristen Stewart here conducts an in-depth interview with Vicky Krieps, who shines as Empress Elisabeth in Corsage, the IFC film which has put the actress and director Marie Kreutzer in Oscar contention for a film shortlisted as Austria’s pic for Best International film. Stewart is a big fan of the film, and draws out how Krieps hatched the idea and wore down the director to take the film. They also discuss the importance of telling stories from a woman’s perspective. They also touch briefly touch on the shock of discovering that Florian Teichtmeister, who plays Krieps’ husband Emperor Franz Joseph in a supporting role, was charged with possessing child pornography. The actor, who reportedly has admitted his guilt, will go on trial February 8 after being apprehended with 58,000 files of pornographic depictions of minors as young as 14. 

Corsage has won awards at Cannes, London and the European Film Awards, and it is Austria’s shortlisted pick for the international Oscar. Krieps won the acting prize at Cannes and is a Film Spirit Award Nominee.

'Underwater' costar Jessica Henwick mentions Kristen

 

Did you have any say on Peg’s outfit?

Yeah, I sent them a couple of images beforehand. I did a film with Kristen Stewart once [2019’s Underwater], and I always found it interesting because she is obviously absolutely stunning and when you see her on red carpets and she’s just so beautifully styled but she almost exclusively wears, like, sweatpants. Like this kind of [checkered] shirt I’m wearing now. She’s very, very casually dressed and clearly does not dress for anyone except herself. I like that energy and I think Peg is the same. I said to Jenny, “Think of off-duty Kristen Stewart, except not cool — want it to be 10 degrees off of looking cool.” So, the bucket hat is really in fashion right now, or, I don’t know, maybe it’s not; I think it is. The combination of that with the sunglasses and shorts. I said I didn’t want them to be real shorts; I wanted to get sweatpants and then just cut the bottoms off. Peg is so lazy that she couldn’t be bothered to go to the shop to buy shorts — She just cut up her trousers. The Tevas she’s wearing, they’re so practical.
