Quotes from the magazine :

"That's a fair assessment," she chuckles good-naturedly when I put it to her. "I don't think there was much behind it other than I was young, and expecting it, and trying way too hard to be 'not fake'. When I was younger, I'd look around and see these people, even people I knew, start to do an interview and become a completely different person. I was always scared of being like that. Someone would [ask a question] and you could see my whole thought process on my face. It's like, 'Hide that shit! What are you doing?'"

"God … I have such hard time fucking expressing myself," but at no point does she seem worried sabot saying the 'wrong' thing, even though, in the past, interview quotes have come back to haunt her. "When you say something slightly different, it throws people, and now I'm comfortable doing that," she says. "I'm just like, 'Yeah, I know -- I'm a fucking freak, huh?' You known what I mean? It just doesn't bother me any more."

"I do like to look at what I wear, though. It's not like I put on a fucking dress and don't care about it after." "I love choosing stuff to wear, and my publicist always calls and asks, 'Do you wanna do something like this?" [go to the shows] and if I'm not busy, I'm definitely interested. I'm going to one thing --either Burberry or Mulberry. I'm not sure."

"In L.A. you have to be fairly selective about where you go, but I'm so fine here," she shrugs. "It's similar to New York, in that people are doing their own thing and they feel like they're probably cooler than you, so I tend to be able to get around very easily." Plus, she's enjoying the British pub culture. "We have bars, clubs and restaurants [in the US], but here you go to the pub for the afternoon and you have lunch. In an American publication, that would seem like, 'She's hitting the bars in London!' but it's just a different mentality here."

"It's funny when this question comes up, because I sort of feel like, I don't really care!" she says, looking like she truly doesn't. "People can say whatever they want …" She trails off, then adds, "[The interest] is totally understandable, but when it's personal to you, it's like your life becomes a product, and I'm repelled by that. I don't like to give away gems that people are gonna be like. 'Oh m God!' So I'll always just shrug it off -- in fact, I always find it kind of funny, and not just with Rob.""On a particular level, it's entirely true that it's the most important scene in the whole movie, but obviously it goes without saying it's been built up at this point to an insane degree,"There are two big sex scenes in the two [final] films, and we did them fairly early. It was so weird, it didn't even feel like we were doing a scene within a Twilight film. I was like, 'Bella! What are you doing? Wow! What is happening here?!' It was very surreal. We [originally] got rated R [restricted for under 17s], They recut it."It was tame!" she insists, adding, "I've dome my fair share of coming-of-age movies, but they [the ratings board] know who our audience is, and can be like, 'Hmmm guys, just cool it a little.' It's funny because in the book, you don't see anything. It's everyone's imagination, so it's entirely subjective. I hope it's good!" "I had to be shrouded in secrecy the entire two days of filming … it was crazy," she laughs. "I was on full lockdown, as if I was wearing millions of dollars" worth of diamonds, and I'm so excited for the wedding dress to be revealed," she says. "It was one of those moments you go, 'This is something to remember,' and you want to put yourself in the experience so that it doesn't pass you by. It ended up being great for everyone, I think." She corrects herself with a laugh --"Well, for me, at least" --adds, with faux conceit, "I think everyone had a wonderful time at any wedding … and it was marvelous!".  "There definitely are people that kind of lose it and get very emotional," she says. "But recently, I met [musician] Jenny Lewis and I had the most ridiculous experience. IT was so embarrassing, I couldn't speak. It was eye-opening, actually -- I'm sure that [fans] leave and find themselves going 'It's the one time I'm probably ever going to get a chance to meet this chick, and God, I couldn't even fucking speak!'"

"I know I'm tiny and shit," Kristen acknowledges with candor, but stripping off wasn't without its concerns. "I did [Jack Kerouac adaptation] On the Road right before Breaking Dawn, and I definitely did hand out a little bit," she says. "Then, when I was doing prep for Breaking Dawn, I suddenly realized, 'This is so not On the Road. People definitely want to see you looking trim.' Usually, we're all making fun of Taylor [Lautner] for working out so often, and then suddenly me and Rob were like, 'Shit!' and were running around the block while Taylor laughed at us."

"The first time Rob was the 'sexiest man in the word', a couple of years ago, it was the biggest joke in the world. We never stopped taking the piss and neither did he. [But] they're all great guys and not … geez, now I sound like I'm generalizing about attractive men, but there's something a little vain about working out every single day, whereas they're the greatest guys and all kind of goofy. That's why it's so funny." On Riding Lessons for snow white: ("I'm fairly terrified," she admits. "I fell off the other day"

How do you take your tea?

With milk and a little bit of honey -- which is weird, I guess.

What's your pub drink?

[Proudly] It's a pound.

Gastropub or old-man boozer?

Oh, old-man pub, definitely.

Sausage sandwich or bacon butty?

I don't know what a butty is. [I explain] Oh, bacon.

How do you feel about beans on toast?

I love beans on toast.

Sunday roast of choice?

Chicken or lamb.

Have you adopted any British swear words, like 'wanker'?

I love that word, but in my accent, the funny thing about using British slang -- 'fucking wanker' -- is it just sounds so off.

American jocks or British lads?

[Looks momentarily ruffled, hides a small laugh and does an 'aw, shuck' gesture] Well, I'm kind of repulsed by jocks from anywhere, so I have to go with the lads.

Favorite British music?

Laura Marling. Man, I'm such a huge fucking fan. Rob introduced me to her on Twilight because he thought that [her music] was right for the movie. I love her.

Favorite London hangout?

I've had some really good roast dinners … the Swan & Edgar in Marylebone.

Favorite London memory?

[Another laugh] God, I can't even tell you, so annoying. Erm, hmmm … I spent my last two New Years here, and both of them were fucking incredible.
