"Twilight" Starlet -- Toke of the Town

Kristen Stewart is getting smoked out big-time, and not just because of her little pipe-scapade the other day.

"Twilight" star Stewart is being taken to task by TV and print press, says the Chicago Sun-Times, because of "difficulties getting [her] to handle even the most basic questions about her role or the film." One reporter complained, "It's not like we were delving into her personal life."

Even the director of the flick admits to EW Kristen has "had a lot of trouble [with interviews] ... it's not her favorite part of the job." We suspect we know what is.

46. Haha geez the little girls a simple stoner, its not like shes out doing coke and rolling in clubs a la lonhan, but yeah her "shyness" does come off as bitchy and kinda snobby she needs some public speaking lessons. Im pretty sure that pretty boy is the reason everyones going to see Twilight for, anyways.

47. OMFG people! Bashing her like that over a pipe, c'mon. Plus, you dont even know what was in the freakin thing! She's freakin 18 years old and under major stress from a movie that she thought was gonna be small. Then she suddenly gets bombarded by questions and fans. You tell me someone that wouldn't be nervous in an interview after all that. Im sure that eveyone of you who bash her do something in your private life that is just as bad or even worse than smoking a pipe. C'mon people get real. Plus, it doesn't take away the fact that she is still a phenomonal actor and deserves respect for what she does. Also, compared to most other actors her age she's a freakin saint. I support her 100%. Always have, always will.

48. I think it's unfair to criticize her and blame her interview skills on those photos that came out of nowhere!!! It is not just because she is only 18, also getting up at crazy hours for the past few years for the films she's been in (which are quite a few) she probably has a gazilion interviews (and Rob Pattinson as well) lined up to promote twilight, not to mention the press tour in Europe---so of course she is tired and sometimes a person so young in the spotlight 24/7 gets a bit incoherent at some late night or early morning interviews!!!
lay off the criticism---its a tough job!! (with a lot of perks :)) but still!

49. come on, leave her alone, shes 18! we're just used to all these celebrity teens who at 18 had sex tapes and grew up way too fast! dont even lie and say that at 18 you were professional and organized and "together" its hard enough for her to get used to all the sudden publicity! give her some credit at least shes real and doesnt pretend to look perfect, and as for her appearance, i am sooo sick of painted celebrities, so what if she has some circles under her eyes? GET OVER IT PEOPLE

50. Seriously, people need to leave celebrities alone. It's their life and can do what they want.

51. I understand that Kristen Stewart is young and probably exhausted, but it is her job to promote the movie properly (answering questions and not acting pissed off during interviews). Her unprofessional and annoyed behavior can turn people off from seeing the movie, thus affecting ticket sales. Kristen Stewart's failure to properly promote the movie may even be a breech of contract. If she can act in front of a camera on a movie set, then she can act in front of a camera in an interview. It's not like she's unable to do it. She just seems unwilling. Kristen Stewart's future success may be ruined by her behavior.

52. jesus,
she's freakin 18. she has a life, and thats none of your business. She has enough to deal with without you paparazzi hankering after her. Get a freakin life.

53. Give her a Break... Almost half of the world are SMOKERS! even maybe the one who took those pictures smokes too!! what's so BIG deal about that..

54. I think she is a cool chick. She just needs to make sure she keeps her personal business just that. Besides, plenty of people have smoked trees all over this world. Not much different from legalized drugs.

56. OK well I dont think I'ts a big deal that Kristen was smoking something out of a pipe[possibly weed] I don't personally think [This is just my opinion] that it's a habbit thing or a big deal. People are looking at her and reports are coming out that ppl already knew or think I'ts a problem and they are worried. Well I say if they are worried shouldn't they say something to her instead of any mag that will listen and am I the only one who noticed that her BOYFRIEND Michael was right next to her and was smoking to. But hey it's What ever right? Say whatever you may say about this topic I would like to hear your opinion

57. Sorry. No sympathy for her from me. Does the girl not have any sense at all? I certainly don't envy their hectic schedules and lack of personal downtime, but even I could do better interviews and show better judgement, professionalism, and common sense than her. If she can't stand the heat, she needs to find another line of work that is less invasive and one that she can cope with. And the girl just isn't a great actress. She should be working on her acting skills instead of doing drugs.

And a lot of Twilight fans DO think it is a big deal that she is using illegal drugs. Especially at her age. I guess to some of you that makes her really cool. How sad.

58. Finally, TMZ is good for something. Sure, I have always had a problem with the invasive nature of paparazzi photogs and the like. But at least captions like the one above can enlighten the Internet public to how ridiculously inept some famous people can be. Feel sorry for her? Please. She has everything she could ever want or need. If she signs on to do movies, she should expect to have to publicize them. She grew up in LA, right? In the film business? Her "nerves" are either an act or the product of late nights. And I'm not dissing her for that...an 18 year old girl should be sewing wild oats. But maybe she could do that AND string two sentences together during an interview with Dave Letterman? And maybe she could finish high school? I mean, just some ideas. Thank goodness she can act.

59. If she doesn't like the lime light... maybe she should have chosen a different occupation. Interviews are part of your job... get used to it! She is a terrible actress anyway.

60. Seriously, who cares if she smokes ? Also, who cares how she interviews...? I don't .... I only hope she gets some good acting lessons before the next movie... Hopefully she won't make Bella Swan look like a muttering idiot as much next time... Maybe the smoking will help with that...Maybe it will give her actual emotion... Who knows.. who cares? Not me. She needs to get an acting coach like yesterday. And while shes at it... Maybe a some people skill lessons.... but is this really news worthy... NOPE.
