Kristen Stewart is defending her controversial threesome in the On The Road film that premiered at Cannes Film Festival this week saying, "I like pushing myself."
Dan Gainor, from the Culture and Media Institute, rants,
"In the film 'On The Road,' Kristen Stewart engages in a threesome and masturbates two male characters. How will parents who took their daughters to see the 'Twilight' movies explain this? It is irresponsible of Stewart and manipulative of Hollywood bosses."
Wow, imagine what people would be saying if she actually went on to star in Fifty Shades Of Grey! Stewart doesn't seem to be too concerned, however, and even enjoyed talking about the more sexual parts of the scene. Stewart said,
"I wanted to do [the scene]. I love pushing. I love scaring myself. I've always wanted to get as close to an experience as I could."
Is this the price to pay for having a boring existence? Doesn't sound too bad. Kristen also shared how the cast had to attend a four-week "Beat Generation" bootcamp in order to prepare for their roles. Stewart's life got a bit more excitement than usual as a result. She shared,
"I'm usually self conscious about running around town. But I got to live more in those four weeks than I ever usually do in my life."
Stewart will be playing Luanne Henderson, the 16 year old wife of Neal Cassady, played by Garrett Hedlund. She also has a scene where her character appears topless in a car, sandwiched between Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady. That must be quite the road trip! Let's hear it for the beatniks. They sure knew how to travel.
Do you think Kristen Stewart's threesome scene will be too risque?

Kristen Stewart can't get a break. First she complains she is too famous, and now she is complaining that her life is too easy. The Snow White And The Huntsman star feels that despite her exciting career, she had a pretty sheltered upbringing.
The emo queen complained,
"You can learn so much from bad things. I feel boring. I feel like, Why is everything so easy for me? I can't wait for something crazy to f***ing happen to me. Just life. I want someone to f**k me over! Do you know what I mean?"
Come here, Kristen. Let me punch you in the face. No, just kidding. I actually think she's a pretty good actress. But, really? Life is too boring for you?
Kristen continued her tale of woe. She whined,
"It's one of the reasons I want to act. I love living different worlds, because a lot of times mine is pretty nice and easy."
Stewart is infamous for giving vapid and senseless statements to the media, like when she compared being photographed back in 2010 to being raped. Ever so eloquently, Kristen explained,
"It's so... The photos are so... I feel like I'm looking at someone being raped. A lot of the time, I can't handle it. I never expected that this would be my life."
Do you think Kristen Stewart has a boring existence?

Snow White's character in Snow White & The Huntsman is no helpless fair lady. Snow, played by Kristen Stewart, is one badass warrior in the film, making her weapons trainer, Ben Cooke, one talented advisor to her and the other characters in the action-packed film.
When it comes to choreographing a fight, Cooke relies on both his knowledge of weapons as well as imagination in constructing the scene. Cooke said, in regards to fight choreography,
"I rely on both. Experience and imagination go hand in hand. I want to create something new and fresh."
Snow White & The Huntsman is an adaptation of the classic story. When asked whether Cooke went by a particular version of the story or mixed a few of the versions together to come up with certain scenes, he said,
"I went with the script because it is an adaptation of the fairytale. Obviously I knew the story of Snow White from childhood. The film was loosely based on the classic story."
The actors had some input during fight scenes, and certain sequences had to be tailored to different actors, because of their unique roles in the film. A dwarf would have different weapons and fighting style than a huntsman, and Snow White would fight different than the Evil Queen, played by Charlize Theron. In one scene where the Queen and Snow have an epic battle, it's all about experience and evil fighting against heart and determination. Every fighting scene is unique to the characters and to the situation.
Cooke explained,
"The characters are all different. They come from different places, have many different physical attributes, have different powers. This means they all have their own flavor. Input from actors helps. I can understand where they are coming from and where they want to go. I came up with different weapons and styles that each character could use, what I thought would be the right fit."
The characters were all great to work with, and were cooperative and open to learning new things,he said
"The cast were great because they were all keen to express their own character in a physical sense. A fight sequence is part of the journey within the script that they must take", Cooke added.
There are some challenges to training actors to use weapons they had no experience with before. Luckily, Cooke had an easy time with this cast, as they were good studies and eager to learn. Cooke said,
"If I'm given an actor to train that has never picked up a weapon before, this can be tricky. Especially when the script dictates them looking like an expert. Luckily for me the cast of Snow White were all physically coordinated. Otherwise, it's lots of training to get someone looking like it's second nature."
From the previews I've seen, Snow White & The Huntsman looks like one badass action packed fairytale. I have no doubt all the actors will perform beautifully and kick royal fairytale butt during their fighting sequences. Now we know Ben Cooke was the man that made it all seem effortless.
Will you be watching Snow White kick butt on the big screen when the movie comes out on June 1?

Will Twilight's favorite couple, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, appear in another hot Hollywood role together? We have reason to think so! Stewart and Pattinson have been talking about the new Twilight-inspired erotic trilogy Fifty Shades Of Grey.
The new steamy trilogy seems to be all the rage. Kristen said,
"It's funny- I heard about it yesterday. Rob [Pattinson] and Wyck [Godrey], our producer, were talking about it."
The couple from Fifty Shades Of Grey would be a more sexed up version of Twilight's Edward and Bella roles we are so used to seeing Kristen and Robert in.
The best-selling erotic trilogy is about a wealthy entrepreneur named Christian Grey who seduces a younger college student, Anastasia Steele, into a "dominant/submissive love affair."
Before Twilight fans run off and buy tickets for this steamy spin-off, don't get too excited, nothing is set in stone yet. Some might not want to see the Edward and Bella-like characters dive into the seedy world of scandalous sex, a far departure from their sparkly vampire roles.
Or then again, some might want to see all that. After all, even Twilight audiences do have to grow up some time. All we know is that when Kristen was asked whether she would read the Fifty Shades Of Grey series, she simply gave a
"Hell, yeah!"
Would you like to see Robert and Kristen in these more adult roles, or do you think the Twilight-inspired trilogy should have completely different characters?

Twilight fans might be surprised to see Bella bare it on Jack Kerouac's On The Road movie premiering at the Cannes Film Festival later this year. Kristen Stewart was seen topless in the trailer.
Well, actually, all we see is a shot from the backseat of the car of her sandwiched between Garrett Hedlund and Sam Riley, who play Jack and Sal from the beatnik bible On The Road. Kristen will play Marylou, one of the three cross country travelers in the novel.
On The Road is directed by Walter Salles. It was originally a novel by Jack Kerouac, considered one of the most influential books of the Beat Generation. The movie has an all-star cast of characters, including Viggo Mortensen, Kirsten Dunst, Amy Adams, Terrence Howard, Steve Buscemi, and Elizabeth Moss.
Stewart has also appeared in films such as The Runaways, based on the story of the all-girl rock band by the same name, and The Messengers, a thriller about a gruesome murder that took place in a farmhouse years prior to the family moving in.
But she is best known for her breakthrough role in Twilight, playing Bella Swan, co-starring with Robert Pattinson, her real-life boyfriend.
Are you excited to see Kristen Stewart play a totally different character than Bella Swan in 'On The Road'?

For the regular horror film fan, the problem with the Twilight saga story is that the premise is outrageous, but once you get over the whole team wolf-team vampire thing the series have been getting more interesting with each passing episode.
Not only that, the movies have evolved accordingly and the addition of director Bill Condon helped to make this latest install, Breaking Dawn Part I, the best by far in the series. Condon not only is the acclaimed director of hits like Chicago and Dreamgirls, he was also involved in a whole bunch of horror films either as writer or director or both, so he's got a good hand for monsters, even for cheesy ones.
At this point in the Twilight story, Bella Swam, (Kristen Stewart) and her vampire beau Edward (Robert Pattinson) get married, go on honeymoon, have their thing going and suddenly something happens (I won’t say what to avoid spoiling it for the those who haven’t read the books…) and all hell breaks loose. Oh, and way before any of that happens, Taylor Lautner loses his shirt. Actually it happens within 15 minutes of film.
One of the things Breaking Dawn has in its favor is the fact that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are very good actors, and on top of that, they have played the same parts four times now, so they look very comfortable like Bella and Edward. Lautner still struggles but I must say in his defense that he's got some of the worst possible lines ever and the fact that his character is supposed to be filled with barely suppressed rage all the time does not help. Anyway, at least he's better than in Abduction….and his abs are still impressive.
The other good thing in the film is Michael Sheen as Aro, the leader of the powerful Volturi coven. Why such a great theater and film performer as Sheen makes these monster movies (he plays Lucien, the chief of the Lycans in the Underworld Saga) is a mystery. It could be the money, but my personal opinion he just likes vampire movies and I'm thankful for that, because every time he appears, Breaking Dawn improves immediately. The man has a great stage presence for someone so short and the kind of penetrating glance you might expect in a vampire lord.
On the other hand, despite great landscapes (you notice immediately that they've had a huge budget) and some good cinematography, the technical part is amazingly poor. A few extra dollars in FX, guys! After The Lord of the Rings and especially after Avatar, there is no reason for a big budget movie to look so 80's! Fortunately, werewolf participation will be limited in Part 2 and that will give us a break.
All in all, Breaking Dawn Part I is the best in the series. Despite the cheesy premise, director Condon gives us an agile and compelling tale that maintains great fidelity to the book (hardcore fans will be delighted) and at the same time manages to include a bunch of winks for the horror fans.
What's your favorite Twilight movie?

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 premiere took place this week @ the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. The fourth installment of the blockbuster film franchise, which hits theaters this Friday, chronicles the lavish forest wedding (one of the biggest weddings shot in movie history), island honeymoon and impending parenthood of mortal teenager Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and her vampire crush, Edward Cullen, played by Stewart's real-life love Robert Pattinson.
The Breaking Dawn - Part 1 premiere event was streamed live on Yahoo!. A spokesperson said the event drew the largest simultaneous audience for a live movie premiere in Yahoo! history.
The premiered was swamped with hundreds of screaming fans. Many had traveled from far away and camped out for days to catch a glimpse of the stars of the vampire series.
Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner walked down an appropriate black carpet which welcomed them at the Nokia Theatre. Stewart vamped it up in a long purple and black gown with a thigh-high split, while Pattinson wore a fitted gray suit. The pair, alongside heart-throb Lautner, also in a gray suit, posed for the cameras and signed autographs for their fans.
The star-studded black carpet premiere was full of celebrities including singer Bruno Mars, actors Jennifer Love Hewitt and Ashley Tisdale, and Australians Sharni Vinson and Cody Simpson.
One thing is for sure, even though the premiere has come and gone, the after party was done spectacularly and is one that Hollywood will forever remember. The Chad Hudson-produced celebration took its cue from Twilight and featured a large space transformed partially into Bella and Edward's wedding reception and partially into their honeymoon location. According to The Los Angeles Times, perhaps the most breathtaking design was a set of wooden benches surrounded by vines and more than one thousand wisterias.
I guess we’re gonna have to go see the film to check out these lavish sets! Films buffs have predicted record-breaking ticket sales for the last two parts of the film series, which are adapted from Stephenie Meyer's novels. I know I'll be adding to those record breaking sales this weekend!
Are you going to see Breaking Dawn - Part 1 ? What are you most excited about seeing in this film?

Never underestimate the power of a telenovela. Back in the early 1990's, Teresa turned Salma Hayek-Pinault into an international star and now La Reina del Sur might be doing the same for Kate del Castillo. Reports are coming in that the Mexican actress has signed on for her first major Hollywood flick.
Set for a 2012 release date, del Castillo's K-11 movie is bolstering quite an impressive cast. Twilight’s Kristen Stewart and E.R.’s Goran Visnjic have both attached themselves to starring roles. Little is known about the plot, other than that it will be a heavy drama focusing on the transgender community.
Kate, as you know, garnered major attention for her role as Teresa Mendoza on La Reina. There were billboard campaigns, American talk show appearances, and even a push for a Primetime Emmy nod (which sadly didn't come this morning).
But we think of La Reina mostly as a launching pad. After watching the entire season, it's clear that del Castillo has some serious acting chops and we can't wait to see her flex them a little bit more on the big screen!
Are you looking forward to Kate's new movie? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.

Robert Pattinson fans got a big treat at last night's MTV Movie Awards. The 25-year-old Twilight star dominated the stage at L.A.'s Gibson Amphitheatre, taking home Best Male Performance, Best Fight Scene, and Best Kiss. Not only that, his Twilight: Eclipse film took home Best Movie of the year.
But, in between R. Patz moments, there was plenty of glam, glitz, and unpredictable comedy. Host Jason Sudeikis made sure to include some Arnold Schwarzenegger jokes in his monologue and even singled out Selena Gomez for a raunchy one-liner! But his shining moment was undoubtedly the opening Hangover Part II parody, which featured a hilarious cameo by Eva Mendes.
Other LOL tidbits came courtesy of Jim Carrey, who wore an image-flashing suit while presenting The Foo Fighters. Comic Aziz Ansari also got some laughs with his Jaden Smith impersonation, but perhaps the most off-the-wall moment occurred when R. Patz kissed costar Taylor Lautner on stage!
One of the trademarks of every MTV Movie Awards show are the sneak peeks of upcoming summer films. And this year's batch are sure to generate a ton of buzz. Throughout the evening, exclusive new scenes were shown of Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Super 8, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
As far as the big winners go (other than Robert Pattinson of course), there were quite a few that got the crowd buzzing. Justin Bieber took home Best Jaw Dropping Moment for his concert film Never Say Never and interestingly did not thank his new gal pal in his acceptance speech. And up-and-coming Latina Alexys Nycole Sanchez got a huge response when she won Best Line From A Movie (for her "I want to get chocolate wasted" moment from Grown Ups).
As expected, fashion was a huge part of the evening. Twilight’s Kristen Stewart got the most attention for her safety-pin studded ensemble and sleek black pumps. Harry Potter’s Emma Watson went for the more sophisticated look, sporting a Marchesa-designed white mini skirt. Prom’s Aimee Teegarden stood out with her colorful flowing dress and former Nickelodeon star Amanda Bynes took a little heat for flossing way too much spray-tan.
At two hours, the show definitely packed a lot in and never felt rushed or boring (are you listening Oscars?). Add to that a killer live performance from Lupe Fiasco and Trey Songz, and it's clear that this year's MTV Movie Awards definitely delivered the goods.

If you think Robert Pattinson's type is a carbon-copy of novia Kristen Stewart then think again. The 'Twilight star recently admitted that he has always been obsessed with older women. The minute we read this we were hoping he wasn't down with abuela types who spend there time at physical therapy. No, no, no, that's just too disturbing to entertain! Robert, 24, is really into older beauties.
"I was always obsessed with Kate Moss," says Pattinson in the new issue of Elle magazine. "On my bedroom wall I had a poster of [Exorcist star] Linda Blair and Kate Moss."
And that's not all.
"I always liked Jane Fonda [who is now 73]. Who else? Ellen Burstyn [78]."
The star is currently promoting his latest film, "Water for Elephants" with co-star Reese Witherspoon. We wonder if he was also crushing on her during the film's production.

Do you think Rob will eventually replace Kristen for an older lover?
