Kristen Stewart responds to critics of risqué Rolling Stone cover: 'It's a little ironic'
View Date:2024-12-23 19:47:10
Kristen Stewart has a message for critics of her risqué Rolling Stone cover.
The "Twilight" alum opened up about the controversy surrounding the photo, where she appears with her hand inside a jockstrap, as a guest on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" while promoting her new film, "Love Lies Bleeding" which combines a lesbian love story with crime.
“There's a lot of buzz about this Rolling Stone cover of yours. Now before I show this cover, I just want you to know and the audience to know that I think it’s a perfectly lovely cover. We were asked by CBS not to show it,” Colbert said in the clip. “They thought that would be not a good idea for us to show this, and I don’t know understand why.”

“I want to say that you look better in a jockstrap than I ever did,” Colbert joked, before asking the actress about the cover criticism.
“Well, let’s keep this light. You know, it’s a little ironic because I feel like I’ve seen a lot of male pubic hair on the cover of things. I’ve seen a lot of hands in pants and unbuttoned,” the Oscar nominee said. “I think there’s a certain overt acknowledgment of a female sexuality that has its own volition in a way that is annoying for people who are sexist and homophobic.”
Colbert said he "certainly" had seen more revealing covers on Rolling Stone or Sports Illustrated, noting that the material was "not remotely explicit.”
“I think it also violates public expectations of female sexuality as opposed to how you’re presenting it here," he said. Then, the "Spencer" star responded by saying that, "yes, because female sexuality isn’t supposed to actually want anything but to be had. And that feels like it’s protruding in a way that might be annoying," and ending with an expletive.
"Love Lies Bleeding" was released on March 8 and is in theaters now.
