Kristen Stewart graduates on Twilight sequel set
By ANISunday, November 8, 2009
LONDON - Kristen Stewart is finally a graduate. She finished her high school after passing her last exams on the set of the new Twilight movie.
The 19-year-old dropped out of school to pursue acting as a teen but took classes with tutors on movie sets.
Stewart qualified between scenes on the Vancouver, Canada set of ‘Eclipse’, at exactly the same time as her character Bella - so the fictional graduation ceremony she shot for the film doubled up as her real one.
“I know it’s a little late, and I’m a little old, but I just finished high school - with honours,” the Daily Star quoted Stewart as telling Interview magazine.
“The other day I was doing a graduation scene on Eclipse and I had just finished high school myself the week before, so I told the crew, ‘Hey, just so you know, I’m actually graduating right now, and I’m not going to have another ceremony.’
“So I took a mock picture with an extra. I literally asked the actor to come back and shake my hand and hand me the diploma while I was dressed in a cap and gown,” she added. (ANI)
