The “Twilight” star poses for a rather dark photoshoot.

I have to confess that Kristen Stewart isn’t one of my favorite young actresses, because she’s just too skinny and pale for my tastes. She also seems to take herself too seriously, but she was OK playing Joan Jett in that Runaways movie, so I’m willing to give her props for acting. I’ll never understand why she’s so popular, but the teens are nuts for those “Twilight” films, so she’s currently a big name. The franchise is coming to a close, so Kristen’s back in the pool, competing against other actresses her age for parts and trying to wring the last bit of publicity out of her role as the vampire’s babe by posing for a bunch of magazines. This layout from the new issue of Flaunt makes her look like a strung-out junkie coming down in a trailer park, but since she’s going for that serious-actress type vibe, maybe it will get her some work.
