The plot thickens... Enter a new BFF?

Turn to MTV Asia for an interview with Nikki Reed. Of course, this is from before she mysteriously vanished from all Twilight publicity, but still. It is quite open and candid. Here's just a bit from the interview:

"It's bizarre. Obviously, we can do it [hate each other on screen] because it is acting. But it is really funny." She's speaking about her real-life love for BFF Kristen Stewart - a sharp contrast to her character's distaste toward Stewart's Bella. Fans all over the world have loved to hate Reed for being so cruel to their Bella, but in actuality, the duo recently took a vacation together to Africa and plan to reunite for the movie K-11 between Twilight sequels.

Hmm, "She's speaking about her real-life love for BFF Kristen Stewart". Well now, isn't that just truly sweet and innocent and how wonderful that they've gone to Africa together. But of course, completely inappropriate for the US market. Oh wait, do they think BFF means "Best Fuck Friend"? That would explain a lot, since they're treating the whole thing as if that's the nature of the girls' relationsship. And obviously, that little fact needs to be hidden.

Meanwhile, the latest news in the US (and therefor the entire Western world) is the budding friendship bestween Kristen and Dakota Fanning, which I personally think is great. Of course, I do believe it helps very much that Dakota is still perceived as an 11-year old sweet girl by many, and therefor is no threat to the possible gayness factor of Kristen Stewarts image.

And this time, I'm not the only one noticing how Dakota has been absent from Kristen's public off set life, and is now suddenly showing up. This picture below was found on Atwilightkiss.com where it was accompanied by this comment:
At long last, there’s a picture of the soon to be The Runaways co-stars Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning, who have never been caught together in Vancouver despite the fact that they will be shooting for the next eight weeks before the grueling Eclipse shoot and New Moon publicity starts.

According to the comments, there's been a picture of them seen together in Vancouver as part of a group, but not where it seemed as if they were friends privately. Here's another shot for ya... this one was found on newmoonmovie.org (which is one of the websites where certain images and stories on Nikki and Kristen have mysteriously disappeared from the archives). Ashley Greene is there too, but that doesn't seem to get a lot of attention, since Dakota is the new thing.


Hmm... I'll keep ya posted for more evidence, that there were once two girls, who hung out all the time, the world's best known BFF's for a while and loved each other (in one way or another - or every way). ;o)

Is Kristen Stewart gay?

Who knows... Well, obviously she does. Maybe. But that's not really my point - and today, I actually have one. It seems that the media is collectively doing their best damn effort to suddenly spin every Kirsten Stewart story towards a VERY straight image.

In the previous month, every story has been about her and Robert Pattinson or her and official boyfriend, Michael Angarano. The latest Kristen Stewart stories on PopSugar is an excelent example of this. Now, this wouldn't be so strange if it wasn't because there is absolutely NO focus on any kind of affair og issues with her cheating on boyfriend Michael.

Oh no, we see one story featuring a "PDA filled walk with her boyfriend" (April 28th) and six days later (May 4th) the focus is "Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart Get Intimate!" (the pictures to prove this "intimate" evening consist of them talking at a concert, mind you). But everything is totally fine as long as she is either with this boy or that boy... in the meantime, Nikki Reed has suddenly vanished from the surface of the Earth (last post on PopSugar where she was mentioned is April 20th) and if she is actually seen, you can be sure it isn't anywhere near Kristen Stewart.


Seriously, she isn't even at the award shows or anything. Suddenly we only get pictures of Kristen Stewart surrounded by four human beings of the male persuassion, with image captions such as "Kristen was all smiles, sandwiched between Taylor Lautner and fellow best kiss winner Robert Pattinson"... umm, all smiles? What picture are YOU looking at?



I mean, it is so obviously the tail wagging the dog, and their little spin to move the big star [Kristen Stewart] far away from those pescy lesbian rumours. Rumours that did actually have pictures of Kristen Stewart and Nikki Reed looking quite intimate (and only having eyes for each other) at the root. Such as this one:

Umm, yeah, they look totally crazy about good ol' Robert... positively boycrazy. Or this one:


Now, I'm not saying they ARE or WERE a couple... But that picture IS a typical couple posing for the cameras.

Then there's this interesting tidbit:



I originally saw the picture above in an article about Kristen and Nikki being seen out together yet again, but that particular article has now been changed to an article about Robert kissing Kristen on her birthday (Goddess bless Google cached for giving us the truth, LOL). Or how about these last official ones:




Anyway... I just find it umm, well, scary that the media is buying into this. Some very high-powered people must have been giving very strict orders for this to be pulled off so completely. They are just hushing this thing to death. And fine, let them try... I'm just saying, gay or not, this whole PR spin is ridiculous and really makes it look like they ARE hiding something.

Feeling cheated,

P.S. ONE thing bothering me was this: Why would Kristen - or especially Nikki - go along with this? Well, there's this new movie in the works featuring the two actresses (Kristen's mom's directorial debut). The movie could be a real challenge and something different for the girls. This means that all they would have to do is tell the actresses to stay out of the press together, or the movie will never be made. Just my theory... But this thing reaks of manipulation, so why not?

Seking Simone - new lesbian web series

Let's hear it for the lesbians... Entrepreneurs of the Internet. I just stumbled upon a new web series which I recommend we all give a shot. You never know what it might turn into, and then you can say you helped start the revolution and was a true firstmover. Here's the trailer for ya:
