Kristen Stewart has enjoyed a lofty and large scale career in Hollywood for just about 20 years now, ever since first breaking out alongside Jodie Foster in Panic Room. What followed was a multitude of hit films she starred in, most notably the Twilight franchise. Since entering Tinseltown in her childhood, we have literally watched Stewart grow as both a person and an actress right before our very eyes.
People who worked close to Stewart have seen her grow up just as fast, especially her employees (many of whom have worked with Stewart since she was a child). And they all have something to say about her.
10 Dating Isn't Off The Table
Not everyone likes to mix business with pleasure, but Kristen Stewart has and will do so gladly. In the past, we know she dated her Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson, then her Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders.
Years after the fact, she went as far as to openly date her personal assistant Alicia Cargile. Now, Cargile is neither a girlfriend nor an assistant working for Stewart. There have been instances between them where they would break up only to get back together again, but with Stewart contemplating proposing to Dylan Meyer now, reconciling with Cargile seems out of the question.
9 She Smokes Like A Chimney
Kristen Stewart has never kept it a secret that she smokes both reefer and cigarettes, and we have even seen her in public smoking the latter. However, her maids get a regular whiff of whatever she's smoking on a daily basis, and apparently, it's too much for them to stand.
According to TheRichest, maids have given their own firsthand accounts of being around a smoking Kristen Stewart and not only does she smoke like a chimney, but they practically get secondhand smoke not only from being around her but having to clean cigs and the smell of smokes out of her clothes, ashtrays, etc.
8 You Might Get Your Own Spotlight
Kristen Stewart has had the same bodyguard for the past few years now and we don't even know his name. However, despite not knowing much about him, the internet has collectively given him a spotlight and has affectionately been referring to him as HBG, or "Hottie Bodyguard."
He even has his own Facebook page dedicated to him called "Kristen Stewart's Hot Bodyguard." We're not sure how the HBG feels about having such a large spotlight on him, but it's more of a spotlight than anyone would expect a nameless employee of Stewart's to have.
7 You Might Have A Job For Life
A lot of celebrities tend to have a revolving door of different employees filling out roles for them. They may not have the same barber or hairstylist, for example, today that they had this time last year or even a month ago. Not Kristen Stewart. It looks like when she hires someone, she's looking to keep them around for as long as she possibly can.
Take her stylist, Tara Swennen, for example. Swennen has been Stewart's stylist ever since the actress was 14-years old and was one of Swennen's first ever clients. Stewart is now 30-years old and they are still working together.
6 She Hates Wearing Heels
Kristen Stewart has always been a bit of a tomboy and her style in more recent years has reflected such a choice. However, at the start of her career, she must have had people in her circle who encouraged her to follow certain Hollywood mandates, like wearing heels and dresses on red carpets.
In a 2012 interview with TheCut, her stylist Tara Swennen revealed that while Stewart would agree to wear dresses, she hates wearing heels. She'll wear heels for pictures, but halfway through a red carpet event would change into some Converse.
5 She Only Wears Specific Jewelry
In the same interview with TheCut, Stewart's stylist revealed that on top of not liking heels, she does not like to wear jewelry either, unless it has a specific, special meaning to her. She wears sentimental jewelry, but not just any random earring or necklace out of a Chanel store.
Swennen elaborated saying Stewart's "jewelry is jewelry that tends to stay on her only because it has sentimental value to her, whether it’s from friends or family." So if you ever see Stewart with jewelry, know that it has a personal meaning to her.
4 She's Collaborative
Jürgen Doering has served as Kristen Stewart's costume designer for multiple films, including Personal Shopper and Clouds of Sils Maria.
Doering pointed out in a 2017 interview on how her contract with Chanel could and maybe should give Stewart a reason to be more controlling of her wardrobe, but it's actually the opposite. "She always asks what I think, what I might propose, and then we have a real talk about it," he told Vogue. "She’s not high maintenance at all - she’s very sexy."
3 Loves To Try New Things
Both her stylist and makeup artist have professed for how Kristen Stewart loves to try new things, especially with her look. Side by side with Stewart herself, Swennen in a Hollywood Reporter interview on YouTube spoke on how she encourages Stewart to be daring and brave with her looks and Stewart is always willing to go for something new.
Meanwhile, in a separate interview for Allure, her makeup artist Beau Allen said that every time he and Stewart get together, they try to brainstorm new looks she can try out in public.
2 She Never Wants To Hide Her Flaws
Another makeup artist who worked for Kristen Stewart, Jillian Dempsey, spoke to InStyle about what it is like to work on Stewart's face. She spoke on what you'd expect her to speak on, like Stewart having perfect porcelain skin and how she feels about red lipstick, but one interesting thing worth noting came on how Stewart feels about her freckles.
"She doesn’t like to conceal her freckles," Dempsey admitted, "so we do a very sheer application of makeup." It is interesting to hear just how important Stewart's freckles are to her.
1 She Does What She Wants
We have seen words like brave and daring thrown around a lot by her employees in the context of this list, but we never realized just how bold Kristen Stewart can be until Dorotka Sapinska - Stewart's costume designer on Underwater - recounted to Looper how Stewart's buzzcut look came to pass.
Apparently, in discussing how her character should look, Sapinska and Stewart wanted the character to go bald. The studio hated the idea and nixed it right away. So, naturally, Stewart shaved her head anyway. The studio didn't know until Stewart posted pictures to social media and when she walked on set, they were forced to run with it.
