Kristen Stewart celebrates young stars redefining sexuality

LOS ANGELES

Kristen Stewart says she felt a “huge responsibility” to define her sexuality after finding fame in the “Twilight” movie franchise. But she’s glad today’s young stars don’t have to do so.

The 29-year-old actress said she was “so gay” on “Saturday Night Live” two years ago. But she sees a shift in culture that’s allowed young people – in and outside Hollywood – to accept fluidity in gender and sexuality.

“I felt this huge responsibility, like one that I was really genuinely worried about. If I wasn’t able to say one way or the other, then was I sort of like forsaking a side?” said Stewart, who also had a long-term relationship with “Twilight” co-star Robert Pattinson.

“The fact that you don’t have to now is like so much more truthful,” said Stewart.
