Pattinson Defends Stewart's 'Rape' Comment

Are they still acting like they're not together? In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Robert Pattinson got protective of his co-star Kristen Stewart, coming to her defense for her infamous comment that being famous is like “rape.” Pattinson instead criticized the “system of Internet journalists" that had created the market for juicy headlines, with no accountability. Stewart said she should not have used the word rape and admitted she misspoke because she’s “young and emotional,” but Pattinson leapt to her defense and said organizations that rushed to condemn Stewart did so only because journalists contacted them first.
