Kristen Stewart knows exactly what you think of her, and she doesn’t give a damn. The Twilight actress is a Hollywood rarity. Hugely popular and successful, she refuses to engage in any Jennifer Lawrence–style charm offensives. (And even the J. Laws have their off days.) But even though Stewart knows that her smiles are treated like rarities, and that her refusal to smile is interpreted as a “bad attitude,” she has no interest in fixing it. Here's what she told Elle:
