Damn, would you look at Kristen Stewart!
The Oscar-nominated Spencer star is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine this month, talking about her life, her image, and her upcoming erotic thriller Love Lies Bleeding — and she is looking good as hell.
Throughout the profile, Stewart is photographed wearing a black leather vest and a jock strap by Bike Athletics. It’s a perfect costume for the gay icon that she is. And a perfect outfit to show off her strength.
Stewart said that she wanted the Rolling Stone cover to send a clear message: “hyper-sexualized, left of andro, and flipping the gender script.”
“If I got through the entire Twilight series without ever doing a Rolling Stone cover, it’s because the boys were the sex symbols,” she said. “Now, I want to do the gayest fucking thing you’ve ever seen in your life. If I could grow a little mustache, if I could grow a fucking happy trail and unbutton my pants, I would. Guys — I’m sorry — but their fucking pubes are shoved in my face constantly, and I’m like, ‘Ummmm, bring it in.’”
It’s also a perfect preview for Love Lies Bleeding, in which Stewart plays a grubby gym manager who falls for an explosive female bodybuilder played by Katy O’Brian and then has her world explode.
In talking about Love Lies Bleeding, Stewart reveled in the fact that it's not made for the type of people movies are normally made for, and that she got to play a type of character she rarely gets to play – or even see.
“It was really fucking fun to be allowed to have the little, dykey sister be the main protagonist in a movie,” Stewart said. “That’s never the main character in a movie. That’s never the one that you want to fuck. I mean, that’s the one some people do, but not the one that you are prescribed to want to fuck.”
“It is a really weird, kind of moving return to form in some way. Kind of like who you are when you’re 11 — physically, the clothes you choose to wear — before you’ve just been pummeled by male expectation,” she added.
Love Lies Bleeding is coming to theaters on March 8.
