Why is Kristen Stewart a thing?

I AM...SHE IS AWESOME...VERY ATTRACTIVE...TALENTED ACTOR TOO.

Kristen Stewart is a woman, not a thing. I may, however, have a thing for her...

...her acting, that is... Looking forward to Spencer!

She's never done anything for me.

The exposure from being cast as the lead in Twilight probably helped her career a lot. Not a fan of that series, but I thought she did a great job in every other role I've seen her play.

She is very cute.

As she's only moderately attractive and can't act at all, I assume she has the world's greatest agent.

Because Hollywood will pick a random person to make a star and continue to stick with it until they can no longer milk it.

i really like her looks.

& like her costar in the teen vampire movies, i think she parlayed her teen fame into a mostly pretty interesting career. i haven't liked all of her films, or even most of them. but if you look at a lot of what she's done:

certain women
personal shopper
lizzie
on the road
american ultra
jt leroy

they're different and not obvious or pandering. i wouldn't call them uniformly great. i don't even like some of them myself. but at least she's pushed herself and done a lot of things that weren't obviously meant to only amplify her fame.
