I do like the fact that Kristen believes in speaking her mind, and wears sandshoes most of the time! That's great! There is only one beef (no pun intended) that I have with her, and it's the same as Esme Echo's, it's that she is so thin.
It worries me that all the women in Hollwood are so thin that if they turn sideways you can't see them. It's not realistic, and while I know some people are naturally this way, I think they're in the minority, whereas virtually every woman in Hollywood is thin. It can't be all natural, and I can't help but wonder if she's eating well. Yes, I'm sure, as Chernaudi says, she exercises a lot, but is it really going to have that much effect if she's eating well? Seriously, she is so thin it doesn't look healthy, and so I think this is one way in which she is conforming to the Hollywood stereotype. How I long for the days when women with curves were considered sexy, or even nice to look at would do me. I considered becoming an actress myself at one stage, as I enjoyed the few amateur productions I was in, but I knew that I'd never cut it as far as looks and size went, so I didn't bother (admittedly, there were other reasons too, but this was a significant one).
I have written a novel that I am trying to get published, and I have tried to make it clear in this novel that the heroine does not look like a stick. Hopefully, if it's ever published and people actually read it, it will be an encouragement to girls like me, who aren't thin.
Two words to describe Kristen's diet: Paula Dean!
Kristen cooks for herself, and in dishes that use butter, she uses as much as Paula does on her cooking show (!), and Paula's certainly not thin! And we have to remember also that Kristen smokes (not healthy) and, since her 21st birthday, probably drinks (though she's no drunk, but even at that, I wouldn't classify drinking as particulary healthy, either). People who've met and interviewed Kristen when she's eating say that she'll basically eat about anything, and that she probably has an active metabloism, which most people her age tend to have. Well see if her eating habits catch up to her when she's in her late 20s/early 30s when that stuff starts to slow down, or if/when she has kids (and I'm not talking about Renesmee).
I don't know what Kristen's secret is, but she said that she had to diet for Breaking Dawn to enhance Bella's sickly appearance during her pregnancy, and that she didn't like having to change her eating habits to lose a few pounds just for some scenes in the film.
