A few months after publicly expressing regret over cheating on boyfriend Robert Pattinson with her Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, the actress has some words for everybody else.
“I apologize to everyone for making them so angry,” the typically press-shy On the Road star, 22, tells Newsweek. “It was not my intention.”
Stewart, who has been the subject of both vitriolic criticism and tremendous support from fans, adds, “It’s not a terrible thing if you’re either loved or hated.”
But at the end of the day, the former Twilight star is primarily focused on her craft.
“I don’t care [about people's opinions],” she explains. “It doesn’t keep me from doing my s–––.”
Addressing her most famous role, that of Bella Swan in the Twilight franchise, she says, “The only relief when it comes to Twilight is that the story is done … I start every project to finish the mother––, and to extend that [mentality] over a five-year period adapting all of these treasured moments over four books, it was constantly worrying.”
As for always being know to a generation of moviegoers as Bella, she says, “As long as people’s perspective of me doesn’t keep me from doing what I want to do, it doesn’t matter.”
