Kristen Stewart believes Oscar boycotters should shut up and stop complaining.
Kristen Stewart is setting Twitter on fire by coming up with the most offensive solution yet for #OscarsSoWhite. The Twilight star blames people of color for not doing enough to get themselves the awards and the recognition they want.“Instead of sitting around and complaining about that, do something,” she said to Variety. “Go write something, go do something.”
“And that’s easy to say,” she continued. “Like, f**k, it’s hard to get movies made. It’s a huge luxury. Who gets to just make movies? But that subject is just so prevalently everywhere right now, and it’s boring.”
Twitter erupted after her comments went viral:
Kirsten Stewart is so pedestrian. So mundane and soul destroying. Watching her ruin the craft of acting makes me itch.
