Kristen Stewart doesn’t want to be a ‘movie star’

Twilight star Kristen Stewart has insisted she is an actor and not a celebrity.

The actress, who stars as mortal Bella Swan in the hit vampire movie, claims she does not want to be a movie star.

Instead, the 19-year-old says she wants to be seen as an actor and cannot understand people’s obsessiveness about her or her co-star Robert Pattinson.

Stewart told BlackBook magazine: “I don’t want to be a movie star like Angelina Jolie. Nothing about being a celebrity is desirable. I’m an actor.

“It’s bizarre to me that everybody’s so obsessive.”

Stewart, who can been seen later this month in the second Twilight installment New Moon, said she found some bizarre solace in rumored beau Pattinson’s tortured character Edward Cullen.

She added: “Edward is actually a really good parallel to fame. As a vampire, he has a sad, desolate life. Fame is the same.”
