Kristen Stewart is living an atypical* life for a 20-year-old. Ever since she took on the role of Bella Swan in the “Twilight” films, she’s crossed over into youth-idol status where emotions run high and she has zero privacy. The actress says in the February issue of Vogue magazine that she can’t go to a shopping mall and that it bothers her that she can’t be outside often. She said: “I just can’t go to the mall. It bothers me that I can’t be outside very often. And also to not ever be ‘some girl’ again.” Stewart revealed she was conscious* of how much the books and movies mean to the fans and said Bella was “a character who is embedded* in so many people’s psyches* at this point.” Stewart is working on the final two films in the saga and says her wish is for the fans to be happy with the outcome*. Now that “Twilight” has made her a star, Stewart tells the magazine she’s trying to figure out what to do with the money she’s made from her work. Stewart says it would be “amazing” to help fund halfway houses for people who need support. Although Stewart is enjoying a successful career — making a reported US$25 million for the fourth and fifth installments in the vampire franchise* and recently filming “On the Road” with Amy Adams — she admitted she would not have become an actress if she hadn’t started so young.
