Nikki Reed talks to MTV about hating Kristen. Well, technically, it’s her character Rosalie who is hating Kristen’s Bella. Just like in the film ‘Twilight’, Rosalie’s feelings towards Bella continues to be all about hatred. However, Reed reveals that it isn’t easy “hating” Kristen.
Apparently, Nikki Reed and Kristen Stewart are BFFs in real life, so although Reed loves the idea that her character Rosalie is hated by millions of Twilight fans, it’s the acting part that Reed feels harder. She said, “Rosalie feels really strongly about her hatred for Bella. It’s bizarre. Obviously, we can do it because it is acting. But it is really funny.”
“Kristen’s my best friend. I get to work on a set with really wonderful people and really creative people, and there are a million people in the world that have read this series and love the series. I get to be with my best friend. I can’t think of anything better.”
“The first ['Twilight' film] was such a unique experience, because we had such a large cast and we didn’t really know if we were going to make sequels — we weren’t expecting the kind of success that the film had. But we’ve all remained really good friends.
“As an actor, you always feel heartbroken when you leave a project, because it is this really unhealthy tug-of-war. You get really close, and then you get separated and most likely you’ll never see your castmembers again unless it’s at an event years down the road. And [then] it’s like, ‘Hey, how are you?,’ and there’s a big hug. But you have this nomadic [quality to life]; you’re never really in the same place, so it’s hard to bond. We’ve (the Twilight cast) all bonded.”
Don’t worry though. Like in Twilight, Reed is aiming to piss off more fans. She said, “Obviously, Rosalie hates her in ['New Moon']. Hopefully, we don’t laugh too much while we are making it.”
