Kristen Stewart isn’t one to mince words. And in the July issue of Vanity Fair, she lets it all rip.

She looked pretty flawless to us on the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards, but KStew claims she gets a lot of flack for not looking perfect enough in photographs. Huh?
.
“I get some serious s**t about it,” she says. “I’m not embarrassed about it. I’m proud of it. If I took perfect pictures all the time, the people standing in the room with me, or on the carpet, would think, What an actress! What a faker! That thought embarrasses me so much that I look like s**t in half my photos, and I don’t give a f**k. What matters to me is that the people in the room leave and say, ‘She was cool. She had a good time. She was honest.’ I don’t care about the voracious, starving s**t eaters who want to turn truth into s**t. Not that you can say that in Vanity Fair!”

“People have decided how they are going to perceive her,” Robert Pattinson tells V.F. of his girlfriend and co-star, who manages to look pretty damned perfect in the V.F. spread. “No matter how many times she smiles, they’ll put in the one picture where she’s not smiling.”
.
Perhaps those perceptions were based on the “old,” grungier Kristen, who now admits that she owns “some cool sh**” from the world’s most respected and avant-garde designers.
.
But she freely admits she wasn’t always at fashion’s forefront.
.
“Look at a picture of me before I was 15. I am a boy,” she says. “I wore my brother’s clothes, dude! Not like I cared that much, but I remember being made fun of because I wasn’t wearing Juicy jeans. I didn’t even think about it. I wore my gym clothes. But it’s not like I didn’t care that they made fun of me. It really bothered me. I remember this girl in sixth grade looked at me in gym and was like, ‘Oh my God! That’s disgusting—you don’t shave your legs!”

Kristen, who also touches on her reluctance about her fame in the article, freely admits that “Twilight” changed her life. She remembers the exact moment.
.
“You can Google my name and one of the first things that comes up is images of me sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe with my ex-boyfriend and my dog,” she says. “It was [taken] the day the movie came out. I was no one. I was a kid. I had just turned 18. In [the tabloids] the next day it was like I was a delinquent slimy idiot, whereas I’m kind of a weirdo, creative Valley Girl who smokes pot. Big deal. But that changed my daily life instantly. I didn’t go out in my underwear anymore.”
