Kristen Stewart talks being mistaken for a bitch

Cast members and celebrity fans alike flock to the screening of the Twilight Saga: Eclipse at the Crosby Hotel in NYC, NY on June 28, 2010. Pictured: Kristen Stewart  Fame Pictures, IncKristen Stewart believes that strong women are often mistake for bitches.

“Being a public figure, I’m supposed to present myself in a certain way, but it’s hard and you’re never going to be able to tell people who you are through the media,” the 20-year-old Twilight starlet told the Daily Telegraph.

“It’s sort of impossible. It’s much easier for a guy to say what he wants and no to be cute and funny all the time, but if you’re a strong sort of woman you’re just – for lack of a better word – a bitch.”

“I’m asked all the time in interviews about who I am, and I know a few people my age who have a strong sense of self, but I couldn’t say I know myself and sum it up and give it to you in a little package,” she added.

“I don’t know myself at all yet.”
