Kristen Stewart
Now she’s showing it to everyone

Kristen Stewart has long been underrated. As Lady Di she is now growing beyond herself – precisely because the two have so much in common.
She does not like the stormy applause. Almost ashamed, Kristen Stewart, 31, wipes a few tears from the corner of his eye when the audience at the Venice Film Festival celebrates the actress for her role in “Spencer”. The drama of Pablo Larraín, in which she shines as Princess Diana, who decides to part ways with Charles one weekend, is considered a sensation. Especially because hardly anyone would have believed Kristen Stewart to capture this tragic figure so accurately on screen.
Kristen Stewart: She feels a mental connection with Princess Diana
Now she is even traded for an Oscar. “I’m a bad actress: I always reveal myself,” says Stewart. And tells how connected she felt to Diana: “There were moments when I forgot that she was dead.” Day and night she studied the queen of hearts, fell asleep with her voice off the tape. How obsessed she was with her, said Stewart. She felt that Diana had given her her blessing for the role.
This mental connection is perhaps so strong because there are many parallels between women. Both suddenly became famous for an unusual love and almost broke it, but were able to free themselves from their bonds. And both have an ambivalent relationship to the public: They don’t like it very much, but learned to use it for themselves.
Their relationship broke up in front of the public
Stewart fell in love with “Twilight” not only on screen with Robert Pattinson, 35, who, unlike her, was predicted to have a great Hollywood career. But the relationship did not withstand the pressure of worldwide attention. After Stewart’s affair with the married director Rupert Sanders, 50, the love-off followed, and Kristen went underground for the first time.
Rebellious and cool, fragile and delicate: this is how Kristen Stewart looks today. Shuffles barefoot across the red carpet in a Chanel costume, only kisses women and embodies characters she feels close to. It can no longer be bent, nor can it be instrumentalized. “I’m really bad at pretending,” she explains. Another thing in common with Diana.
