The chick from Twilight. Known for looking moody, biting her lip, and getting to kiss Robert Pattinson.

Prior to Twilight, Stewart was a little-known actress who appeared mostly in independent films, occasionally getting supporting roles in studio films. At age ten, she had her first major role playing Jodie Foster's daughter in Panic Room. During this period, she was generally considered to be an up-and-coming talent by those who were aware of her.

Then came Twilight and the public's identification of her with Bella Swan. Stewart, who comes off as a bit of a Shrinking Violet, makes it pretty clear that she does not enjoy being famous and generally preferred her pre-Twilight life. However, she doesn't win the points Pattinson does with the Hatedom due to the fact that she doesn't badmouth the series as much as he does. Most critics, but not most members of the hatedom, still believe that she can act as long as she's not playing a character named "Bella Swan", but the financial failures of her subsequent non-Twilight films (Adventureland, The Runaways and Welcome to The Rileys) seem to indicate that her fame has not made her a box office draw all by herself.

Her next role will be Snow White in Snow White and The Huntsman. She has also been approached for a role in the upcoming live-action Akira movie.

This actress provides examples of:

• Character Tics: She has a habit of biting her lower lip, which she shares with Bella Swan.
• Cloudcuckoolander
• Cluster F Bomb: She has been known to drop these on set when she messes up a take. She also curses like a sailor in interviews.
• Deadpan Snarker
• Does Not Like Shoes
• Double Standard: Apparently Robert Pattinson can get away with saying all kind of stuff, but if Kristen Stewart ever opens her mouth, she should be slammed and bashed by fans and haters.
• Dull Surprise: Even before Twilight, she wasn't known for her emotive acting.
• Dyeing for Your Art: For her role as a runaway teenage stripper in Welcome to the Rileys, she learned how to pole dance, deprived herself of sleep, chain-smoked, and ate mostly junk food. As a result her body and legs were covered with bruises, her skin was blemished, and she constantly looked tired.
• I Am Not Spock
• Looks Like Cesare: without makeup, amazingly enough
• Mean Character Nice Actor: Even people who loathe Twilight seem to like her and can have some respect for her as an actress outside of Bella Swan.
• Retroactive Recognition: Quite often, seeing as she wasn't too well known as an actress until Twilight.
• Ship Tease: With Dakota Fanning actually. It was heavy due their promotion of The Runaways. Kristen even once said Dakota was a better kisser than Rob or Taylor.
• Shrinking Violet: Making her Twilight fame an especially bad case of Blessed With Suck. The tabloids love to interpret this as her being rude or stuck-up. That must make her love fame even more.
• Sir Swearsalot: She's never been shy about showing off her potty mouth in interviews.
• Took the Bad Film Seriously: It's well established that she treats the role of Bella with absolute seriousness. Whether that's admirable or foolish depends on how you view the series.
• When She Smiles: She's usually brooding which makes her smile even nicer.
