Mirror, mirror on the wall, was Kristen Stewart playing fair at all?
The Twilight actress Kristen Stewart has been caught in a cheating scandal with Rupert
Sanders, the director of the 2012 fantasy film, Snow White and the Huntsman, which she
starred in this summer. When the movie released in late May, it was received with mixed
reviews, with much of the negative reviews attributed to Stewart’s dull and lackluster
acting performance. A common question raised by critics and moviegoers was, why
and how did she get that part? The producers were initially going to cast a lesser-known
actress to play the title character, but when Stewart showed interest in the part, the role
was offered to her.
Kristen Stewart has been in a widely publicized relationship with her twilight co-star and
on-screen love interest, Robert Pattinson. Director Rupert Sanders is currently married
with children to model Liberty Ross. Ross played the role of Snow White’s mother,
Queen Eleanor.
Although twi-hards may not want to believe that there is trouble in vampire paradise for
their favorite couple, Kristen confirmed it herself.
In a statement to People magazine on Wednesday, she stated:
“I’m deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I’ve caused to those close to me and
everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most
important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love
him, I’m so sorry.”
Kristen’s camp is in a state of serious damage-control as one of their sources stated,
“Kristen is absolutely devastated. It was a mistake and a complete lapse in
judgment. “She wasn’t having an affair with Rupert. It was just a fleeting moment that
shouldn’t have happened. She never meant to hurt anyone. She’s a good person who just
made a bad choice.”
Shortly before Liberty Ross deleted her twitter account, E! reported that her last tweet
simply said “Wow.” Celebuzz reported that she also retweeted the Marilyn Monroe
quote: “Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
The question remains, when did it happen? Depending on when the affair happened,
(before or after the film), the timing can answer the question of whether she truly did win
the part in all fairness. No pun intended.
While Kristen may have played Snow White in the movie, turns out her love life isn’t
appearing to be a fairy tale, after all.
