Thursday, 28 May 2009 Kristen Stewart doesn't feel under pressure playing Bella Swan. The New Moon actress thinks playing Joan Jett in The Runaways will be a lot more intense. Kristen is really excited about playing Joan but isn't sure if she will be singing any of her songs. Her New Moon co-star Dakota Fanning is also going to be in the movie which is released next year. Kristen told Filmink: "I don't know if I'll be singing or lip-syncing. Joan kind of yells so I can do what she does. "I'm not sure what will happen, but it's not up to me. I got to hang out with Joan Jett over the holidays, and that is the coolest thing I've ever done. "She told me the whole history of her band and her life and what music means to her. It's an enormous responsibility to play her. "When Twilight came out, people were like, 'Oh, wow! The expectations of the fans must be really intense.' But this is way, way, way more intense.' I have to handle the expectations of Joan Jett! I'll take the vampire fans any day!" www.myparkmag.co.uk/articles/celebrity/new-moon-photos-kristen-stewart-finds-bella-easy.htmlI thought that was a pretty cool article! GD

If she's as excited as she says she is, then let's all pray that she'll rock the house and blow us all away. Unless she sucks, but I doubt she will. I mean, I HATE Twilight, but I've seen her in other movies and she's a good actress. But wouldn't she be better playing Cherie??
And for those of you wondering who the hell I am, I'm an [almost] 13 year old die-hard fan of The Runaways. I bet ya don't see that every day.

She looks great as a blonde too, dontcha think?!?! Anyway, I am quite happy with Dakota Fanning as Cherie and I'm sure Kristen will do a great job portraying Joan! GD

yeah, she does look great blonde. I almost forgot she had blonde hair at one point (thanks for reminding me, Gus). I can just picture her onstage wearing a white corset and dancing like Cherie. *sigh* I guess I'll just have to live with Dakota. She'll do all right.

hey bri! i was SEVEN when my cousin first played the runaways for me! no, you don't see an almost 13 year old die hard runaways fan every day, that's awesome! Kristen totally, totally looks like a Cherie candidate with blonde hair. however, after i saw her act in "Adventureland" (which should be coming out on DVD very soon, SEE IT GUYS IT'S FUN) I saw her as a Joan. If any of you watch it, let me know if you agree.

According to this article, Joan gave Kristen a pair of shoes from her Runaways days. STEWART'S VINTAGE ACCESSORY KRISTEN STEWART is wearing an extra-special prop to help her capture the character of JOAN JETT in new movie THE RUNAWAYS - a pair of the rocker's own vintage sneakers.
Jett gave Stewart a pair of Converse boots she wore during the band's 1970s heyday, and sources say the young actress refuses to take them off.
An insider tells America's Star magazine, "Joan thought wearing them would help with the movie's authenticity."

I just love how her shoes are from the 70's and are still wearable... I've had my Connies for about 4 years and they are falling off my feet haha, guess that goes to show they don't make 'em like they used to

Haha, I've had my current pair of Chucks for a year and a half and they're totally falling apart. The only thing I can do is hope that my dog doesn't find them until I get a new pair.
It's cool that Kristen gets to wear Joan's shoes. I wouldn't want to take them off either (they're two of my favorite things combined: Joan Jett and Chuck Taylors).
