Kristen Stewart - Praises Jodie Foster's Influence



Kristen Stewart has revealed double-Oscar winner Jodie Foster - who she starred with in the 2002 movie 'Panic Room' - has had a huge influence on her career.

Kristen Stewart says her favourite actress is Jodie Foster.

The 'Twilight' star appeared in the movie 'Panic Room' when she was just 12 and she admits the double-Oscar winner has had a huge influence on her career.

She said: "One of my favourite actresses is Jodie Foster. I think this has a lot to do with me starring in my first movie with her. I watched her a lot on set. Jodie is not the kind of person to give advice, but she was definitely a strong influence on me."

Kristen's influences don't only come from her professional peers, she also is a huge music fan and admits her favourite artists have had an effect on her.

She added: "I'm a bit of an old soul when it comes to my musical tastes. My all-time favourite song is 'Madame George' by Van Morrison. That song never gets old to me. There's something comforting and raw about it."

Kristen Stewart fell in love with Vancouver while shooting the 'Twilight' movies



Kristen Stewart fell in love with Vancouver while she was shooting the 'Twilight' movies.

The 21-year-old actress -- who recently finished filming the final scenes for the two 'Breaking Dawn' movies in the city and Squamish, British Columbia -- admits it was a great experience to shoot in the Canadian city because it has so much natural beauty.

She said: "We shot most of the 'Twilight' series in Vancouver. I fell in love with it -- it's such a beautiful city. I found the climate so different from what I'm used to in Los Angeles. The air is clean and fresh and there are beautiful mountain views everywhere. But I didn't get to go out as much as I would have liked."

Vancouver isn't the only place to have captured her heart during the filming of the vampire movie franchise.

Kristen -- who is dating her co-star Robert Pattinson -- also loved shooting the second movie in the series in Italy and she especially enjoyed the European country's food.

She explained to new! magazine: "When we shot 'Twilight: New Moon' in Italy, I tried all different kinds of pasta dishes -- Alfredo, fettuccine with cream, basil and Romano cheese - and gnocchi with seafood. I suddenly took an interest in cooking. It was amazing! It's now my favourite cuisine."

MTV's Memorable Style Moments of Kristen as one of the Best Female Performance Nominee



Nominated For: Best Female Performance - The Twilight Saga: Eclipse

Character Name: Bella Swan

Memorable Style Moments: Kristen Stewart's just got good genes and that youthful insouciance where she looks cool no matter where she's at or what she's wearing. Her hair, even in a braided sweep, always has the correct number of stray pieces, and regardless of what color her tresses are it never looks like it required too much effort. Whether in single-sleeved sequins and feathers from Elie Saab that created a FUHRENZY or an architectural bodice with see-through "illusion skirt" hemline by none other than Chanel (whoa, waaaay early on that trend, right?) or a immensely ornate appliqued, skintight mini Roland Mouret dress, K. Stew keeps us on our toes with an unexpected curveball and reveals a confidence that makes us 0.0034 percent OK-er with the fact that her boyfriend is insanely, unfairly, ridiculously gorgeous.

Sam Chaflin is a fan of Kristen Stewart



“Honestly I’ve only ever seen the first one, and it’s not because I’m not a fan, it’s just because I…I did enjoy the first one and I’m a fan of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart and everyone involved. So, with the new movies coming out, I’m looking forward to seeing all of them (the films) as a whole.”
