Kristen Stewart: Santa Monica Sassy

Wearing a protective wrap around her twisted ankle, Kristen Stewart takes a mini-break on the set of a new photo shoot in Santa Monica, Calif., on Tuesday afternoon (June 2).

The 19-year-old actress recently sat down with Interview mag and Zathura director Jon Favreau and revealed that she never sought out to be an actress.

Kristen shared, “This is never something that I sought out. For most actors, it’s such a struggle to get work. Once they have it, they feel that there’s an enormous amount of pressure on them to make it work, and have everyone love them. In my case, it was never like that. It was just about working with the people that I want to work with, and telling the stories that I want to tell, you know? And, you’re right, it was also because my whole family is involved in the entertainment industry in some way. My brother’s a grip. My mom’s a scriptwriter. My dad’s a director. So it’s like, at heart I’m a below-the-line girl.”
