Kristen Stewart Does Her Best Bella

If you've been following Twitarded for a little while, or been anywhere in the Twidom for a while or maybe even if you've only seen Twilight once, you're likely aware that Bella is...twitchy. And blinky. And stammery. Enough to make a Twilight movie drinking game that will land you in the ER if you are not careful--i.e. doing a shot every time Bella blinks, twitches, or stammers will have you under the table by about the twenty minute mark, and you will only make it that far if you have been practicing and have a pretty well-developed tolerance for liquor.

We've joked around about having a "Do Your Best Bella" contest here at Twitarded because it's just so much fun to imitate the twitching and stuttering for some reason (this might be something we do live in Forks - I won't name names but some of us have already been practicing). Admit it: it's a blast! But the other day I was over at Malicious Mandy's Mind and came across a short video of Kristen Stewart being asked some totally awkward questions (and walking off when they ask about "Edward") at Sundance and holy crap she's totally doing her best Bella [note: she nails it]!



When I first watched that vid I was thinking that KStew was tossing in a pinch of Robert Pattinson and had CLEARLY picked up his compulsive hand-running-through-the-hair thing, but after doing a bit of research (all in the name of science, mind you) I came to the conclusion that the two of them have always shared "the hair thing" - it is probably their irrepressible need to run their hands through their manes that brought them together in the first place. It must be like some sort of young-famous-uber-hottie mating call - if they were birds they would be totally fluffing their feathers but since they are not they do this instead (the bit at about :14 where they do it in sync s-l-a-y-s me for some reason!) -




For those of you who may have missed the nexus of the "Do Your Best Bella" - here's the inspiration (I should warn you that then ending is...harsh-ish but if you haven't seen it, you must watch this!) -

  1. I saw that Kristen video on the Sundance site and, you're right, about the twitching. So really, Bella is doing her best Kristen. LOL!!!!! And that reporter was a total nutsack to ask that question.

  2. Quite different from when I posted that vid...I was like "

    F*ck ya KSTEW, you tell em!...errr not...walk away KSTEW, walk away! You go girl! Keep it bad ass!


    AND PS Even my Crapsten loving self gets annoyed with the whole hair things.

  4. @mmMoxie....I'm pissing in my pants....literally. I have never seen a one word comment that sent me right to the pisser. LMFAO!!!!

    Well, STY, This post came at a perfect time, because lisa has been in twitter jail and we decided to torture her by talking about Robsten...and now this post. Too funny.

    Yeah...not a fan...

  5. The end of Jagg Off totally made me look away from the screen. Not what I expected!
    As for Twitcha, I think it's cuz KStew isn't acting that Bella seems so much like her. Because she *can* act, but I think Hardwicke originally "directed" (if I can use the term loosely) her to just be herself. I'm watching another KStew movie right now, and after the somewhat extensive research I've done since seeing Twilight (I've watched Adventureland, Fierce People, Panic Room, Into the Wild, The Cake Eaters, and currently In The Land of Women), I think she's pretty good, actually. She's just stuck with Hardwicke's interpretation of Bella as a spaz.

    Alright, clearly that was an opinion I needed to express. ;-) It's been a rough week.

    I can't wait to do my best Bella in Forks! I'll be practicing...

    w/v: fories. Sooo close to forkies!

  6. You're right STY - she's doing her best Bella. I need to practice more in prep for Forks!

  7. Both Rob and Kristen are so twitchy in the same way it's weird. I've seen some gif's from Kimmel that are seriously freaky because they have the same motions down to a science. I think it's cute and more evidence that they clearly are meant for each other lol. and how totally classless of that reporter to ask a stupid team edward question at Sundance. Kristen wasn't there for Twi, give her a break. Love that girl and her badazz-ness. She doesn't care if the big haired (wide azzed) robsessed crazies hate her. she's true to herself. I respect her for that. Go Bella/Kristen!

  8. Don't worry Cullenary Curser - we know you already have a great "DYBB" down pat! The rest of us need to practice - lol...

  9. Sure it's all fun and games til someone loses a nut. The menfolk going to Forks should be worried as the odds of that happening are decidedly against them. Guess I'm happy my hubtard and his nuts will be far far away. (just looking for the silver lining since I won't be anywhere near the festivities.) Maybe we can get a Twitter follow list before you go. You know. In case all of your other options run out and someone needs to send out a bat-signal, er tard-signal for bail money, or more rope and duct tape as the case may be....

  10. @Fkat - good idea! I would love to be on the FOOOOORRRKKKKSSS trip via Twitter. That way I can keep a safe distance yet still laugh my ass off.

  11. LOVE the Jaggin' Off vid! It totally ended exactly the way I would've thought - dirty and wrong. But, as stated in an earlier game of Drunk Mad Libs:

    I'm a sick bitch! And pretty proud of it.

    I've never attempted to DMBB. I guess I have some practicing to do before FFFFFOOOOORRRRRKKKKKSSSSS!!!!!

    We should have a game while we're there, that every time one of us runs our hands through our hair we have to take a swig from our flasks.

  12. You have no idea how much I'd love to see all you Twitarded Forkers doing your best Bellas!

    You know, maybe KStew had just had a text from Rob before the Sundance interview asking her to do her best Bella.

    I really wish her and Rob would come up with some way of dealing with these questions better, surely there's no need to appear that awkward everytime they come up?!

    @ StarlitViolets LOL at the hair drinking game! (Nice to see you back! xx)

  13. I love the hair mating call theory STY! I think you are seriously on to something with that.

    "Are you Team Edward off the screen?" WTF?! That is so much worse than just asking the real question. How does that woman live with herself? Gross.

    So I have to really DYBB in Forks? I would rather sing karoake...can I trade out? Can I do Bella singing karaoke? Oh now I am on to something.

    Trust me I will not need a drinking game to keep me taking swigs from my flask..it is pretty much just going to be a given...especially in those moments I don't need to drive anywhere...but don't fret I will play.

    V/W: bumdryi I think this needs no sample sentence.

  14. That was frickin hilarious!! You think thats a bad drinking game...try doing a Star Wars drinking game and ending up pulling the words death and star out of the hat!! I was nicely fermented in about 15 minutes ;P

  15. Ok so are we gonna get to see videos of do your best Bella in Forks....I need um...I gotta see it ;o)
    Do your best Jagger.....loved it!
    That reporter was an asshole...and I wonder if she realizes it when she watches the tape back! So akward!

  16. @STY - it could use some work. I'll be perfecting it over the summer, 'cause I have nothing else to do of course.

  17. From the internet on Body language interpretation:

    Hand(s) through Hair: When people don't know what to say, they often run their fingers through their hair. The observer who can read body language knows the person is unsure about what to do or say next.

    That sounds completely like Robsten as they both stumble with their interviews but, for me, that just reminds me that they are human.

  18. ahahaha
    haha
    ahhaa
    hahaaa
    she is insanely akward. i must say that i am pretty amazing at the whole "kiss me" - eyebrow raising thing she does in new moon. xx

  19. Yeah...still laughing about "Taintsten" who is making t-shirts...seriously? Because I totally want one.

    ReplyDelete
  20. @Stoney - If you get a "Taintsten" t-shirt, I am NOT drinking a beer with you in Missouri!!!

    @Mrs. P @ TwiBite and mmMoxie01 - You two were beyond cruel to me last night while I was in twitter jail. I still haven't recovered. You both are whoreflaps, and I don't mean that in an affectionate, Twitarded sort of way, either :P

  21. @dangrdafne - thanks for the interpretation - it makes total sense!

    and how many times did i manage to say "totally" in that post? i totally repeated myself a million times - oops! that's what i get for posting late and not re-reading!

  22. @17Foreverlisa - what is going to become of us if we land in REAL jail - lol! oh people would be merciless (and hopefully send money to bail us out).

    : )

  23. I'd better start saving now for FFOORRKKSS and I don't mean for the trip itself but for the bail money I am going to need to get you all out of jail. Lisa, I don't mind being your translator for Twitter jail, but I am not sure I will be good for you if you are in real jail LOL ;)

    ReplyDelete
  24. @STY - Clearly, I won't be able to count on my Super Bloggy BFF, Mrs. P, to bail my ass out. We definitely need to network this because I'm beginning to think there's a distinct possibility we will need bail money. How well do you know Mr. VitaminR???

    Lisa

    P.S.: How's JJ feeling this morning? LOL!

  25. Kristen, doing her best Bella, doing her best Jager.

    That and how many times they say UM.

    That vid cracks me up everytime, especially the pool part.

    With all this talk about jail, maybe we should open up a Twi-bail bonds store. LOL

    WV= bilyin--see, what I'd tell ya

  26. she keeps saying that if she told about her and rob that nothing would change and it wouldnt make her life any easier...but wouldnt it? then people would not be trying to climb up her anus to find out the answer. allllsooo kstew is a bigger spaz than me, and thats saying something. for a pot head she is realy on edge. mellow out dude.
