“You Should Do Anything But That” - Jodie Foster’s Advice For A Young Kristen Stewart

[@tammyd.970]

Her awkwardness is endearing. She seems like a genuinely shy person, but is passionate when speaking about her work. It's refreshing to see someone with that much fame be authentic in interviews. Like, "it's okay to be an introvert, and you too can be successful!"

[@KitC916]

More people need to take their work seriously, but not take themselves so damn seriously.

[@michelebergman4336]

She comes from a total Hollywood family! She’s Rich & Famous & Beautiful!!! Why wouldn’t she be happy ? She doesn’t seem shy to me? She is quite an attention getter!

[@tammyd.970]

@@michelebergman4336 who said she's not happy? I think she is..... That was part of the point. I do think she is naturally an introvert, because that is how she comes across, but as one who has strategies for dealing with the spotlight on her personal or private life. Introversion does not imply unhappiness....

Well said! Totally agree.

[@kilmer009]

I think Stephen has extensive experience with awkward/anxious/etc guests, I'd say we should give more props to Kristen who's obviously an introvert. We spot our own. She tried to not make much eye contact or face the audience to avoid getting into her own head. Regardless, she probably knows how to handle crowds at this point obviously and yeah I love it that she came on the show and expressed herself intelligently and confidently. Hope to see more of her.

[@adventuresincascadia7985]

Totally agreed. This is the kind of guest where Stephen really shines. She clearly had things to say, and he gained her confidence enough to get her to let them out.

She's the only one who actually survived the Twilight experience. 🎉

[@ExploringTheTube-fd1oo]

I like what she said. Lesbians don't hate all men. They certainly have things to say to them, but making all stories about women about how many problems they have with men, further marginalizes them. I think she has a good head on her shoulders. I'm looking forward to her work, and I hope she does her best.

[@Drnaynay]

I'm straight - do I hate all women? No. I'm a strong feminist, but I don't hate men. That's a ridiculous, oversimplified generalisation. Also, Kristin liked men enough to have an affair with a married one.

[@AlmaKulmala]

She never disappoints! I love seeing her being interviewed. She always has unexpected and deep answers and seems so very real and in love with what she does.

[@Notorious_F.I.G.]

This is actually the first interview I’ve seen her in. And based off these comments, I don’t understand why she’s such a divisive figure. She’s a well-spoken, opinionated and gorgeous young woman. I never realized how passionate she was about her craft. I’m looking forward to peering into her “adjacent perspectives” as a director. Anyone threatened by her “envelope pushing” needs to get out more.

[@breezyncj]

Women and men alike are always threatened by young, attractive, talented, and intelligent women for so many different insecure reasons and that's who she has always been since she started acting..all anyone could ever say about her when trying to insult her was the way her cadence of speaking used to be when she was younger and not as comfortable in her own skin, see: the Twilight movies.

People have far more in common than anything that sets us apart. Divisive ideas are taught; no one is born hating any other human. Inclusive ideas can also be taught, reenforcing natural instincts of humanity .

[@T410ce]

There are definitely ideas that MUST be taught to children, imagine everyone was taught that women should marry women and men should marry men. We would destroy the human race. It’s retarded that we are even considering that it is loving to teach inclusivity… we’re literally poisoning ourselves to death.

[@kennedyrose6766]

I used to think she was stuck up (which I always confuse shyness for), and have noticed how expressive, open and talkative she's become lately which has brought out her true self...never even knew her sexuality, but it would seem that coming 'out' really blossomed her ✌️

[@suzannev12]

You should watch older interviews..she was always expressive and talkative. I really like how people are discovering her but it hasn't been ' lately' at all.

[@yvonneplant9434]

She's an introvert. She reads a lot. Lots of people generally don't understand people like her. And, yes, they feel threatened by smart people. Plus she's beautiful. I think she may regret not going to college.

That was the sweetest chemistry between friends on screen I've seen in a long time. Heartwarming.

Edit: People become misanthropes after being hurt. They can't release their pain and mature. Misogyny and misandry get conflated, but the context matters. Systemic hate involves hierarchy and it’s overall not a matriarchy. so women react to it by mirroring their oppressor. This is a cycle of violence, dehumanizing, and unsolicited attention. The "Barbie feminism" being pushed now is a case of punching up versus society's history of punching down at women and women in developing countries. - Shortened for the short attention spanned TikTok heads.
