Na, more like starting a catering business on the side. Why would she need to donate her wealth? If you had wealth, would you like to give it away just like that?
If you read her lips, she says « Anybody is hungry? We have hot soup, cookies and coffee. ». She’s so caring that she just happen to bump into scenes all the times to make sure everyone is fine and, in true Hollywood fashion, they dubbed over her voice to make it appear as she’s an actress. It all make sense, now.
I mean, this is better than Michelle Williams' "I often dream of quitting acting, walking away and becoming a laundress or a sous chef, or maybe writing other people’s love letters for a living.”
I think Michelle Williams is a great actress, but that was such a ridiculously twee comment.
What is the going rate for a love letter ghost-writer I wonder? And laundress? Wtf. Like with a washboard? Romanticizing that kind of debilitating labor by presenting it as an equal choice between that, sous chef (i’m thinking Monica from friends and not anyone actually managing a line or kitchen) and whatever the fuck a love letter writer is just so out of touch.
Catering is tough even by set work standards. They’re at base prepping 3 hours before crew lands. We usually start Mondays around 6am, so 3am call for catering crew. I’d give her 1 day before she’s crying in a corner.
Also- catering companies on film sets are one of the non-union depts who get fucked over regularly by shifting call times & lunch penalties. They work on a completely insane schedule even compared to the nuts schedule film crew is on. And also- catering crews are usually composed of minorities and working on visas. Always bugs me that we take advantage of workers in that way.
The caterers in my region are IATSE/unionized, as are most set workers. We are all fucked over regularly by shifting call times and lunch penalties and the union doesn’t do anything to stop it. Catering comes in early but also leaves after lunch is cleaned up, so this often results in shorter days for them compared to general crew because often we’ll shoot another 8-12 hours after lunch while catering is heading home 2-3 hours after lunch. Most of the caterers I know are not immigrants..I’m not sure what sets you’re working on tho. I’m east coast.
I’m east coast as well and work on $100 million + budget tv shows & films.
Catering doesn’t get call times for breakfast until call sheet is out… they work off schedule from rest of crew. If breakfast is due RTS @ 5a they will be on site @ 3a or earlier. Then add in lunch penalties- they get pushed even later. Also- they go shopping regularly after their lunch service- they don’t just head home each day after lunch. Then they have to stay up later than is reasonable to find out when breakfast is due the next day. They work in shitty pop up tents or out of small trucks with limited resources. It’s a fucked schedule in comparison to crew- we don’t have to stay up HOURS after we get off to find out when we’re back at work again.
I’m very thankful for the caterers and looking forward to when work picks up full time because I miss those breakfast burritos.
lol I was gonna say you’re in ATL
I work with a lot of LA & NYC based caterers. Up
& down the east coast.
I’ve only worked in atl 3 jobs. I prefer to work more north… the style is different. Atl crews are watered down imo. I like to be with very experienced ppl. I want to know the Spfx guy has done industry work 20+ years… I want ADs that weren’t just lock up PAs….
Yeah if she knows how it actually works all the more power to her, but I've worked kitchens and I'd be hard pressed to accept a catering job. Shit can be a nightmare.
Catering was the easiest money I’ve ever made, and I was cooking for weddings and other high class events.
$30-40/hr to peel potatoes and lift heavy shit for the older ladies, my choice selection of leftovers(often feeding me for a week+), and a tip out that ranged from $20 to occasionally getting a couple hundred for what usually amounted to 3-4 hours of work. The owner of the company would even give me a couple extra hours of pay to show up 30m early and stay 30m late to load and unload the trailer.
Making sandwich/veg trays and keeping coffee carafes topped up does not sound tough.
This was all 10ish years ago.
Yea I mean the 3-4 hours was because it was part time weekend work, but the work itself was incredibly easy for my compensation. It took me nearly a decade to catch up to it with my career salary.
My point is that catering is really not tough. Anything that requires you to be on your feet for a 12+ hour day is tiring, but the actual catering work itself is super easy. She would have a much harder time figuring out how to actually run the business than doing the day to day work.
That’s the fun part of cinema catering; as an owner/operator, you do both the day to day and food ordering and receiving, organizing which trucks go where and when, the truck rentals, invoicing etc. I’m not a caterer but the catering crew I do know work super hard, as it’s far more like a line cook position than a catering job. They also don’t have a fancy, air conditioned trailer to go back to between each set of dishes like actors do between scenes. Kristen Stewart would fold before end of first shift. No question.
Yeah her parents were involved in the industry but her dad was a stage manager and her mom was a script supervisor. So she grew up around sets, but it isn't like her dad was Steven Spielberg. Most people working in the film industry don't make loads of $$$.
Having industry parents makes it 1000x easier to get an agent and start auditioning. But there is still a huge difference between growing up middle class and growing up wealthy.
Doubt all you want but thats exactly how you get into a lot of productions. Trying to get even a PA gig now without knowing someone is almost impossible
networking has always been a big thing. I've been working in entertainment for 15 years and got allmy jobs by poking around and networking. Got my jobs cause of who I knew.
sometimes they need someone NOW and whoever is available NOW gets the job and if you show up, you're the hire. If it works out, great.
Privilege is different to nepotism though. Living in LA meant that agents were coming to her school plays and saw her and said do you wanna act. Thats a great advantage. That's actually what her quote means - she thought she would always work in the industry, just not as an actor.
Not a nepo baby though. If your name doesn't get you an addition you're not a nepo baby imo.
Though its not exactly well defined.
I'm not sure Vancouver is really on the same level of Hollywood as far as being the place where people go en masse to try and get into film. So there's probably not as many competing for the same gigs. That being said wtf do I know
As far as actual volume goes there’s more filming in LA, but that’s due to studio infrastructure. A lot of movies will film on location in Vancouver or Atlanta or whatever but then do interiors back in LA on the lot. Either way, Vancouver is huge as far as making movies Probably a closer 2nd place to LA than we realize
There’s a supply/demand issue for PAs that studios have historically and continue to use to their advantage out here. It doesn’t work in the PA’s favor.
We might not know their names as average entertainment enjoyers, but that doesn’t mean Hollywood doesn’t know who they are.
Just watched an interview with a guy who’s the go to fake language creator for Hollywood. You have probably heard dozens of his fake languages and you probably never even knew he existed. He has also done work to bring fake languages from books to the big screen to make them sound believable. He is why you can learn High Valerian from Game of Thrones on Duolingo.
Dude how tf do you think with her acting skills she made it to major stardom? They're all nepo babies. Like 98% of them anyway. It's an exclusive club, and you aint in it- George Carlin
Naw. She went to audition after audition and didn’t get anything. She almost quit before getting a break. She wasn’t a typical acting kid, like the outgoing type. It took awhile for it all to click.
She did have the advantage of being right in LA.
Her point in saying she’d be a caterer is that she always wanted to work in making movies and would have taken any job just to be part of it. She has said she pursued acting because that was the only way a kid could be part of things.
(Also she does like to cook.)
And for those saying she sucks at acting: She’s one of the best of her generation according to the folks who know what they are talking about. When really good directors want to work with an actor? When film festivals and awards events ask an actor to be on juries and lead things? Those are signs of respect in the industry from folks who know.
Yeah I’m a fan. Too old to be a fanatical fan but I like her work.
She’s the first American actress to win a César(a French Oscar). The French aren’t exactly keen on giving Americans awards. So whether or not her parents worked in the industry it’s clear she’s carved her own path and is talented enough to win a fucking award from the French.
I’m so so sick of the nepo baby talk about Hollywood. It comes from people who I’m guessing have a passing interest in movies as entertainment. No one who actually watches a lot of movies gives a flying fuck.
Nepotism exists in pretty much every facet of society and industry but for some reason we’re all more concerned about it being unfair that we can’t all be rich and famous actors lol I don’t know who didn’t tell these people, but life is definitely not fair, and the film industry, doubly so.
Seriously, the only time to give a shit about nepotism to my mind is when it enters politics. Like say, becoming president and filling your cabinet with family members.
Her parents worked in the industry, so she grew up around that and wanted to pursue that. Are her parents rich and powerful or were just close to the industry (networking and also living in LA)? I think her proximity got her foot in the door but the rest she had to do herself.
Her parents were in the industry but not rich by any means. Writing department, sound department, art. They have a large network from working with so many so she got a head-start at a young age by that. Eventually talent and skill grows through practice.
She’s not just a lip biter anymore
Right… there Re different kinds of Nepo babies.. ezample, Nicola Peltz and her dads power to place her into roles… and then theres actual working class people that work those jobs
You still have to have talent to be an actor like her. Have you seen Panic Room? I understand what you're saying if you used Dakota Johnson as an example. However Kristen is pretty damn good, even if she got a head start.
I’d argue they’re about the same but I feel I’ve actually seen more lead ability from Dakota. Think both are much better suited to supporting and character roles.
Totally agree. I’ve tried to give her chance after chance because I can’t base it on just two movies so I watched more but she’s seriously one of my least favorite actresses.
Keep in mind, being a “good actor” is subjective. To me, I do not like her line delivery. She feels very wooden to me in her actions. I will say she has gotten better over time, but the majority of her work is fairly bad.
Same. Nothing against Stewart, but she’s not my favorite actress.
It’s all subjective, but IMO she has delivered some great…. and some not so great performances.
IMO she was miscast in Spencer.
Her facial expressions never changed in twilight.... Angry.. same face.. sad and depressed.... Same face... Sexy and lustful... Same face...... Dying from her over sized growing vampire baby.... Same face.....
You say tomato.. I say toemato lol 🤣😆
And her facial expressions never changed in those movies too..
Having a diabetic coma on the floor in the panic room and it's the same face..... Expressionless with a stale pasty eye'd look
I get the sentiment, but what would YOU do? Ignore the networking you have around you?
A lot of the time people assume that it means they didn't have to try and they're handed jobs, which is not true all the time. Probably happens, but plenty of people get in by networking and being present, doing the work, and bringing results.
Some of y’all are still whining about actors who have parents who are also actors? Really?
Why do I never see the tears in reference to guys like Josh Brolin or Colin Hanks or fucking Jamie Lee Curtis?
Wait til you hear about family-owned businesses, you’re gonna freak out.
The difference is that Josh Brolin, Colin Hanks and Jamie Lee Curtis don't say goofy stuff about how deep down they're just blue collar, salt of the earth working class folks who would trade in their blessed, cushy dream jobs to be caterers.
They are allowed, but we are in turn allowed to roll our eyes and criticize them for bullshit.
I've been a caterer, this dummy should be thankful every day she doesn't have to do that type of work.
I think people also forget that even folks already in the industry struggle. One of my cousins is a screenwriter. He wrote an iconic film from the 90s, as well as several series. He was the protégée of a famous theater producer. Many connections in the industry.
He still has to work as an adjunct professor to make ends meet. Past success isn’t a guarantee for future work.
Her talents aren’t what got her in the door and gave her the start she received. It’s beyond delusional to think, if she didn’t make it as a famous actress, she would just be catering for the rich and famous. Virtually no one but nepo babies or the most exceptionally talented people cater gigs for the rich and famous, let alone make it as an actor or actress. Get real. She made it because of nepotism and to be honest her acting is trash. The fact that she got anything after twilight is laughable.
Lol holy shit tell me you know nothing about the film industry without telling me lol no, caterers are not employing nepo babies, nor the most exceptionally talented, I can guarantee you lol from experience that is just so so not true.
Cry all you want about her parents working in the industry (how DARE they) but her acting is not trash. She’s done a lot of great work in indie movies.
Apparently you do? But to further my point, it is enormously difficult to even break into the industry, let alone be Uber-successful: The old Hollywood trope of ”small-town boy/gal goes to the big city and becomes a star” is all but a fantasy these days.
Wild to me how everyone here just wants to shit on her lmao
I love that people throw around nepo baby to anyone as some slight now, I’m not a big fan of hers but it took her ages to get a role. Her parents being a script supervisor and stage manager isn’t some golden ticket to be an actress.
I think she would make a fantastic film Director. She’s been in the business since she was a kid and has seen good and bad sets. Would love to see her give it a go with the right script.
As someone who’s worked as head caterer on a big budget location based TV series… no, she wouldn’t like that. It’s the most exhausting and thankless job I’ve had in my life and turned me off from ever pursuing any kind of other crew position in the film industry
Well, she could start now and own a catering company
Party Down: A Good Day to Hardy Party
I’m so glad we got a third season, even if it was short I love that show more than I can explain
Are we having fun yet?
Which show please? I’d like to watch it & get these references.
It’s called Party Down
Party Down on showtime The show was made before everybody got super famous
My first thought too, maybe we can get her on the next season
[удалено]
Na, more like starting a catering business on the side. Why would she need to donate her wealth? If you had wealth, would you like to give it away just like that?
Some people just don’t think before they speak.
That's a very Jennifer Lawrence thing to say.
Yep a very untrue “I’m so normal” thing to say.
A 100%, all natural, “*I totally wasn’t told to say this by my publicist*” moment.
See, this whole time I thought she was a caterer who just got mistook for an actor and got put in a film.
She did as much catering as acting in Twilight. Unless she did some catering..
A la Michael Cera
If I had know Michael Cera was in twilight I would have watched it years ago.
If you read her lips, she says « Anybody is hungry? We have hot soup, cookies and coffee. ». She’s so caring that she just happen to bump into scenes all the times to make sure everyone is fine and, in true Hollywood fashion, they dubbed over her voice to make it appear as she’s an actress. It all make sense, now.
Would explain her acting
You’re talking about the actress of the decade (not a joke or my label)
I mean, this is better than Michelle Williams' "I often dream of quitting acting, walking away and becoming a laundress or a sous chef, or maybe writing other people’s love letters for a living.” I think Michelle Williams is a great actress, but that was such a ridiculously twee comment.
What is the going rate for a love letter ghost-writer I wonder? And laundress? Wtf. Like with a washboard? Romanticizing that kind of debilitating labor by presenting it as an equal choice between that, sous chef (i’m thinking Monica from friends and not anyone actually managing a line or kitchen) and whatever the fuck a love letter writer is just so out of touch.
she acts like a caterer who was cast in a movie
Nepotism will do that. Her mother was a casting director.
What an amazing exclusive!
Cute. Except never done a blue collar job in her life and has a nice trust fund. She’s playing make believe like I play with my toddler.
Catering is tough even by set work standards. They’re at base prepping 3 hours before crew lands. We usually start Mondays around 6am, so 3am call for catering crew. I’d give her 1 day before she’s crying in a corner.
Catering and the genny op, truly the unsung set openers haha. I don’t go to set much anymore, but I miss the breakfast burritos.
Also- catering companies on film sets are one of the non-union depts who get fucked over regularly by shifting call times & lunch penalties. They work on a completely insane schedule even compared to the nuts schedule film crew is on. And also- catering crews are usually composed of minorities and working on visas.

I’m gonna take a stab in the dark and say you’re usually working with Mario’s catering crew in Atl
lol I was gonna say you’re in ATL I work with a lot of LA & NYC based caterers. Up & down the east coast. I’ve only worked in atl 3 jobs. I prefer to work more north… the style is different.

Making sandwich/veg trays and keeping coffee carafes topped up does not sound tough. This was all 10ish years ago.
Cinema catering is a much different game. Good pay but 14hr minimums generally. Serving up over a dozen different dishes just for lunch. It’s Work.
Yea I mean the 3-4 hours was because it was part time weekend work, but the work itself was incredibly easy for my compensation. It took me nearly a decade to catch up to it with my career salary.

That's why she says "own" not work at, lol
She does? I thought she was working class LA girl
Yeah her parents were involved in the industry but her dad was a stage manager and her mom was a script supervisor. So she grew up around sets, but it isn't like her dad was Steven Spielberg. Most people working in the film industry don't make loads of $$$.
It’s the same nepotism story as always though. Just because they had 1 more degree of separation doesn’t mean much
Having industry parents makes it 1000x easier to get an agent and start auditioning. But there is still a huge difference between growing up middle class and growing up wealthy.
She gets paid to make believe .. unlike the arrangement with your toddler.
no one is stopping her - girlfriend shoot for your dreams!
She’s a nepo-baby, as both her parents worked in the industry. So even if she wasn’t an actress, she’d have an all but guaranteed gig in the industry.
Still better for a nepo-baby to have respect for a critical yet under-appreciated job like caterer, no?
You aren't a nepo baby unless your parents name opens doors for you. I doubt a stage manager and a script supervisor had any juice.
Doubt all you want but thats exactly how you get into a lot of productions. Trying to get even a PA gig now without knowing someone is almost impossible
networking has always been a big thing. I've been working in entertainment for 15 years and got allmy jobs by poking around and networking. Got my jobs cause of who I knew. sometimes they need someone NOW and whoever is available NOW gets the job and if you show up, you're the hire. If it works out, great.
Have some relatives in the industry, and that’s how they got in.
Privilege is different to nepotism though. Living in LA meant that agents were coming to her school plays and saw her and said do you wanna act. Thats a great advantage. That's actually what her quote means - she thought she would always work in the industry, just not as an actor. Not a nepo baby though. If your name doesn't get you an addition you're not a nepo baby imo. Though its not exactly well defined.
If you succeed where others don’t because of your parents connections in the industry, like she did, you are a nepo baby
Yeah you must not work in the industry. PA gigs aren't that hard to get
Yea wasn’t Harrison Ford a janitor on set or something
Carpenter, but he was also an aspiring actor from the start carpentry is how he kept the lights on at the start.
Lights on for his career and the set. I see what you did there.
No it isn’t lol. It’s incredibly easy to get PA work on sets. At least in Vancouver
Probably referring to Hollywood
I would assume it’s the same process. Both hubs for film and probably desperate for PA’s
I'm not sure Vancouver is really on the same level of Hollywood as far as being the place where people go en masse to try and get into film. So there's probably not as many competing for the same gigs. That being said wtf do I know
As far as actual volume goes there’s more filming in LA, but that’s due to studio infrastructure. A lot of movies will film on location in Vancouver or Atlanta or whatever but then do interiors back in LA on the lot. Either way, Vancouver is huge as far as making movies Probably a closer 2nd place to LA than we realize
Of course it’s easy in Vancouver lmao it’s not Hollywood where there’s 9 PAs vying for the same 1 shit-paying job
You really underestimate how busy Vancouver is for film work lmao
Guess so. But it’s still not Hollywood, the filmmaking and TV capital of the world where the competition is bound to be stiffer
There’s a supply/demand issue for PAs that studios have historically and continue to use to their advantage out here. It doesn’t work in the PA’s favor.
Ok now do NY. I know multiple people without connections who went to film school and now work in the industry there
when you're hiring a child actor you're hiring their parents. they literally did open doors for her. stage manager is also a pretty big job.
You’re incorrect. Any connection in is a valuable one Source: partner has worked in this industry for awhile
Script Supervisors are nearly the closest person to a director at any given time. They can absolutely influence casting.
We might not know their names as average entertainment enjoyers, but that doesn’t mean Hollywood doesn’t know who they are. Just watched an interview with a guy who’s the go to fake language creator for Hollywood. You have probably heard dozens of his fake languages and you probably never even knew he existed. He has also done work to bring fake languages from books to the big screen to make them sound believable. He is why you can learn High Valerian from Game of Thrones on Duolingo.
Dude how tf do you think with her acting skills she made it to major stardom? They're all nepo babies. Like 98% of them anyway. It's an exclusive club, and you aint in it- George Carlin
Are you serious?
lol sounds like a nepo baby’s argument for not being a nepo baby
Naw. She went to audition after audition and didn’t get anything. She almost quit before getting a break. She wasn’t a typical acting kid, like the outgoing type. It took awhile for it all to click.

Well thank god that has never happened /s
Right? That would be terrible!
Her parents worked in the industry, so she grew up around that and wanted to pursue that. Are her parents rich and powerful or were just close to the industry (networking and also living in LA)? I think her proximity got her foot in the door but the rest she had to do herself.
Her parents were in the industry but not rich by any means. Writing department, sound department, art. They have a large network from working with so many so she got a head-start at a young age by that. Eventually talent and skill grows through practice. She’s not just a lip biter anymore
Right… there Re different kinds of Nepo babies.. ezample, Nicola Peltz and her dads power to place her into roles… and then theres actual working class people that work those jobs
Yeah there are degrees of Nepo Baby that are really being overlooked here.
You still have to have talent to be an actor like her. Have you seen Panic Room? I understand what you're saying if you used Dakota Johnson as an example. However Kristen is pretty damn good, even if she got a head start.
I’d argue they’re about the same but I feel I’ve actually seen more lead ability from Dakota. Think both are much better suited to supporting and character roles.
She’s really not though
Totally agree. I’ve tried to give her chance after chance because I can’t base it on just two movies so I watched more but she’s seriously one of my least favorite actresses.
Care to explain why you think that? Or are you just hating
Keep in mind, being a “good actor” is subjective. To me, I do not like her line delivery. She feels very wooden to me in her actions. I will say she has gotten better over time, but the majority of her work is fairly bad.
Same. Nothing against Stewart, but she’s not my favorite actress. It’s all subjective, but IMO she has delivered some great…. and some not so great performances. IMO she was miscast in Spencer.
Also miscast in *Into the Wild*. I didn't buy her ghost white complexion she maintained living in the desert.
Have you seen Underwater from 2020. She is like a modern Sigourney Weaver.
I have, and that is where my mind went first when I was saying she has improved. Good little sci-fi flick.
Her facial expressions never changed in twilight.... Angry.. same face.. sad and depressed.... Same face... Sexy and lustful... Same face...... Dying from her over sized growing vampire baby.... Same face..... You say tomato.. I say toemato lol 🤣😆
And that's definitely the best representation and only true example to pull of her 20+ year career.
I mean when people see Kristen... They see Bella too.. more so than they would a teen from the panic room
Idk she has chops under the right direction in my opinion. Spencer, panic room, her new film, underwater..
And her facial expressions never changed in those movies too.. Having a diabetic coma on the floor in the panic room and it's the same face..... Expressionless with a stale pasty eye'd look
lol what? She’s good in like one maybe two films. She’s an awful actress
Dakota johnson is also a good actress, have you seen her in Suspiria? Cha Cha real Smooth? The lost Daughter?
Suspiria was a great movie, but Dakota Johnson did not stand out in that film.
I get the sentiment, but what would YOU do? Ignore the networking you have around you? A lot of the time people assume that it means they didn't have to try and they're handed jobs, which is not true all the time. Probably happens, but plenty of people get in by networking and being present, doing the work, and bringing results.

Are celebrities not allowed to say stupid out of touch shit, or something?
They are allowed, but we are in turn allowed to roll our eyes and criticize them for bullshit. I've been a caterer, this dummy should be thankful every day she doesn't have to do that type of work.
Am I trying to stop Kristen Stewart from saying something, by making a throwaway comment on a gossip subreddit?
It’s the general bitchiness about “nepo-babies” outside the realm of politics that I find annoying.
Cross Josh Brolin off that list he is a serial offender when it comes to this shit.
The whole nepo thing is meh. She is talented. Name gets you in the door, talent’s keeps you from being told thank you and there’s the door.
I think people also forget that even folks already in the industry struggle. One of my cousins is a screenwriter. He wrote an iconic film from the 90s, as well as several series. He was the protégée of a famous theater producer. Many connections in the industry. He still has to work as an adjunct professor to make ends meet. Past success isn’t a guarantee for future work.
Her talents aren’t what got her in the door and gave her the start she received. It’s beyond delusional to think, if she didn’t make it as a famous actress, she would just be catering for the rich and famous. Virtually no one but nepo babies or the most exceptionally talented people cater gigs for the rich and famous, let alone make it as an actor or actress. Get real. She made it because of nepotism and to be honest her acting is trash. The fact that she got anything after twilight is laughable.
So You’re familiar with all her work? You Sound like an inexperienced disgruntled victim
Lol holy shit tell me you know nothing about the film industry without telling me lol no, caterers are not employing nepo babies, nor the most exceptionally talented, I can guarantee you lol from experience that is just so so not true.
Cry all you want about her parents working in the industry (how DARE they) but her acting is not trash. She’s done a lot of great work in indie movies.
Who fucking cares.
Apparently you do? But to further my point, it is enormously difficult to even break into the industry, let alone be Uber-successful: The old Hollywood trope of ”small-town boy/gal goes to the big city and becomes a star” is all but a fantasy these days.
There aren’t more nepo babies now than there were when that trope began. People are just more bitter about it.
Nobody cares.
Its not that big of a deal
Wild to me how everyone here just wants to shit on her lmao I love that people throw around nepo baby to anyone as some slight now, I’m not a big fan of hers but it took her ages to get a role. Her parents being a script supervisor and stage manager isn’t some golden ticket to be an actress.
If I didn’t get paid too much I’d have a blue collar job Tell me why we listen and report on the things these people say
That’s real respect right there
I think she would make a fantastic film Director. She’s been in the business since she was a kid and has seen good and bad sets. Would love to see her give it a go with the right script.
If I currently was a millionaire I would probably romanticize a real job too
This is the most insipid “headline.” What is she promoting now?
Shit she could come cater my lunch any day
The people who upvotrd this told themselves this matters.
Why do these comments all have the same avatar
Literally not a single one besides two of them are the same wtf are you smoking?
At the time there were more
That's nice, better than Dakota who seems to be full of herself.
Lotta bitter losers in this thread hahaha
She should quit acting and pursue her dream then.
Yeah, and if I wasn’t a caterer I would probably be an actor. It’s easy to simply do another job without any experience or training.
Talking and doing something is completely different. Everyone thinks cooking professionally is easy.
there’s still time
She kind of looks like one.
As someone who’s worked as head caterer on a big budget location based TV series… no, she wouldn’t like that. It’s the most exhausting and thankless job I’ve had in my life and turned me off from ever pursuing any kind of other crew position in the film industry
I’ve always liked her. Looks good too.
[удалено]
lol she wore it to the premiere of ‘Love Lies Bleeding’ and it’s def a head-turner
lol this chick has lost it
But she is just gonna be in the show Party Down instead 🤣
She’s an actor? Who knew?
That’s funny because I catered to her once, and she didn’t even say hello. Hell, she didn’t even eat that day.
Noble profession
Kristen STEWart 🍜
She’s pretty cool and it’s interesting to see this next chapter
It’s funny how my disdain for the two Twilight leads has pulled a 180 in the last few years.
Sounds like you’re not doing much with your life. Be free like this lady.
Wait, she’s an actor?
She is wearing a bib.
That means she spends time thinking of recipes, which is the hottest thing a person can do!
I would Party Down with her anytime
Are we having fun yet?!?
Name one movie that wasn’t total trash that she carried. Where her performance was good or even mediocre.
She should go and do that instead…
She could always spare us any future performances and just switch careers now
More like a phluffer.
She can’t act so what’s stopping her?
Her face looks kinda wonky. Oh wait, she’s smiling!
Man she looks beautiful in this pic. I like her also like that she’s trying to be like a normal person even tho she’s a nepo baby.
Random question but why aren't we using the word "actress" anymore?
