With paparazzi clicking pictures of Stewart making out with the director, the actress was embroiled in controversies. Naturally, her relationship with The Batman star ended. Veteran actress Jodie Foster defended Kristen Stewart at that time by writing an op-ed defending her actions (via Variety).
“It was such a truly kind act. I really needed Jodie to unpack that for other people before I could even understand.”
Jodie Foster stated that she is still upset by the uproar and spotlight Stewart’s personal life got.
“The whole thing was just stupid. When you’re in your 20s, you do all sorts of stupid sh*t. I felt for her. I wish for her that she had the space and the privacy to be able to explore herself so that she could be a full human being.”
Being an actress who has been in for a long time in Hollywood, Jodie Foster was a closeted person herself until 2013 when she came out publicly at the Golden Globes. With how much Kristen Stewart resonates with queerness, the actress talked about how Twilight was “a gay movie“!

Starring in the role of Bella Swan gave Stewart the freedom and fame in Hollywood. The movie also gave her Robert Pattinson, but the couple eventually parted ways. As the interview with Variety further progressed, the Snow White and the Huntsman actress talked about how Twilight was a gay movie!
“I can only see it now. I don’t think it necessarily started off that way, but I also think that the fact that I was there at all, it was percolating. It’s such a gay movie. I mean, Jesus Christ, Taylor [Lautner] and Rob and me, and it’s so hidden and not OK.”
She further continued,
“I mean, a Mormon woman wrote this book. It’s all about oppression, about wanting what’s going to destroy you. That’s a very Gothic, gay inclination that I love.”
The actress was last seen in 2022’s Crimes of the Future as she is reportedly in her “don’t care” era. Kristen Stewart is currently associated with 5 upcoming projects, while her iconic Twilight franchise is available to stream on Peacock Premium in the U.S.
