How did you feel winning the Orange Rising Star Award?
“I would never get used to something like that, [standing up] in front of a room full of people that you respect. You feel so small, not in a bad way, but it’s such an extreme dose of perspective to stand up there and speak to these people.”

Does this mean the start of even bigger things?
“The list of nominees was so substantial, it’s nice to acknowledge people who are doing cool things. It’s truly humbling and such an honour, but I don’t think it’s going to suddenly get me my next big job.”

The next night you were named woman of the year…
“You go from the Baftas to the Elle Style Awards – winning Woman of The Year at 19, which is just an insane concept, so I am pretty overwhelmed.”

You play Joan Jett in your new movie, why did you choose that role?
“I was a fan of Joan’s music but I didn’t know about The Runaways, and that was one of the reasons I wanted to do the film because I think people my age are fairly unaware of them. And they sort of kick-started females playing more hardcore rock and roll and not being told to quiet down and dull down their aggression.

Between the “Twilight” episodes that have made her a superstar, Kristen Stewart has been furiously tackling real-world roles in character-driven independent films.

One, “The Yellow Handkerchief,” made two-and-a-half years ago before all the Bella/Edward/Jacob (and Kristen/Robert/Taylor) hysteria commenced, finally hits theaters today – in no small part because of the now 19-year-old actress’ massive name recognition.

“It’s really important for me to make movies that make me feel like `The Yellow Handkerchief’ made me feel,” says Stewart, sounding self-assured and far less daunted by her exploding popularity than a lot of media speculation would have us think. “And `Twilight’ did the same. I mean, it turned out to be this huge thing, but that’s not something that you knew going in was going to happen.

“People should know where that came from. I’ve grown up feeling very entitled, like I can do whatever I want. But she didn’t have that.”

Interview magazine will bring in their March issue an interview with Joan Jett in which she talks about Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. They also have new promo pictures of “The Runaways”.

MCDONNELL: How was it working with Kristen Stewart, who plays you in the film? What did you tell her? How did she study you?

JETT: Well, I found Kristen to be through and through totally professional and just great to be around. I found us to be really, scarily similar, just in our physicality, the way we move through space. The first time we met was a little over a year ago, New Year’s Eve. She came to see us do a concert. We hung out for the whole day, and I just dumped on her about everything I could think about The Runaways-I mean, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I told her all that stuff and how much it meant to me. Then she went off to do New Moon, and I didn’t see her again until about two weeks before The Runaways thing started. But she is so authentic. The thing that came through to me was that it was important to her to capture it. She really wanted to nail it. So I gave her all The Runaways music that I could find; I gave her tapes of me talking. . . .

Kristen Stewart was interviewed by Empire and an unknown interviewer after her BAFTA Orange Rising Star Award win Sunday night in London where she talked about how grateful she is to have won this award and she also talked Eclipse & Breaking Dawn!!

Empire Interview

Kristen Stewart, star of the upcoming drama The Yellow Handkerchief, told reporters that she’s unsure exactly what her next project will be, but thinks that Breaking Dawn, the fourth Twilight installment, will start shooting later this year. “Probably November,” she revealed Thursday during a roundtable interview in Los Angeles. “But I don’t know if it’s going to be one or two [movies].”

In the last several weeks rumors abounded that the next installment of the blockbuster film series would be broken into two parts. Stewart confessed that she thought it would be a good idea given the volume of material in Stephenie Meyer’s book. “I can’t imagine they wouldn’t want [to make two],” she said. “The story so completely warrants two films and it would be really disappointing to have to be able to go, okay, we have to lose this sequence and this scene and this sequence. So I would like to do two movies, but I to be completely honest don’t know what they’re going to do.”
