Kristen Stewart holds onto her Kindle e-Book reader as she arrives at New York City’s JFK airport on Monday (March 15).
The 19-year-old actress is gearing up for her new movie The Runaways, a biopic about a ’70s teenage band.
In the film, Kristen plays Joan Jett, the founding member of The Runaways, while her New Moon costar, Dakota Fanning plays bandmate Cherie Currie.
“We both were really concerned about getting the music right,” Kristen told MTV. “They have a very distinctive sound, it’s not just about singing and trying to sound good, it’s trying to sound like them — especially Joan, for me. That growl that she does is something that I love so much; it was cool to have Joan and Cherie there on set everyday, because there are so many things you couldn’t know about their lives and we didn’t want to fill in the blanks with stuff we just made up.” 10+ pictures inside…
