Or see it on EW here!

  • twilighter:

    lol, my first thoughts are that i sorta only want to see her as bella. i cant picture her playing any other roll. but good on her, she really is a good actress

  • La La:

    EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW

  • exra:

    I hated her as Bella. She was slow and stuttery. I hope she does a better job as Joan.

  • beth:

    omg, i would not recommend that as an everyday hair do

  • raven:

    i think she’s just being a versatile actress. good for her!

  • Jacob_Black_fan:

    Hope she can rock out like Joan.

  • Chelsea:

    They shouldn’t be comparing her to the old Joan Jett, what’s the point in that? I think she’ll look good as a young Joan Jett if she is made up with lots of eyeliner and has more of a mullet do…you can”t really tell what type of hair style she has here.

  • BethanyDanniella:

    i think that shes really brave with the hair =/
    good luck to her and her new role

  • greyeyedlux:

    I like how she i going all out for the roll…it’s Joan Jett she has to get the look right. The look is so much a part of Joan and her music. I love Joan! But if Kristen Stewart messes it up I am going to be so angry!

  • Siff:

    Since she has cut her hair does that mean the are done filming New Moon? And what about Eclipse? She’ll need a full wig for her “Bella-hair”, won’t she?

  • Olivia Cullen:

    She has ruined herself! qhy would she do that; my only hope is that she hasnt brushed it all day yet and that she can make it look really nice as she was really pretty before

  • ed4bel4eva:

    she has got to have alot of balls to do that and i do admire her for it, but still crikey that is not flattering

  • ashleyga:

    lmao..did she really cut her hair or is that fake ..cause i loved her long thick brown locks..WHY KRISTEN WHY!!!

  • I think it’s great that she went all out for her role…clearly she’s trying to get in the character…that’s what a real actress does, love her! good for her!

  • erika:

    it’s really good to see Kristen playing other roles than Bella, though i really love her as Bella…but it just shows that she is a good and a versatile actress…
    anyways…the hair?? is it for real?? i mean, did she really cut her hair??

  • omg I wish that was a wig XD But it is very very close. I can’t wait to see that movie, really. Gah I hope her hair grows out before Eclipse!

  • what the flip did she do to her hair??????????????? omg…it that like real? like…really? omg…thats like…o.m.g

  • Loveskellan:

    Yeah i agree this role could make her or break her.

  • Macarena:

    why did she have to cut her hair!!??
    she should have put on a wig!!!….:(

  • Emmaline:

    Its… weird… she looks kinda gothy. lol

  • Candice:

    Umm….the haircut is awful! But, kudos to her for really putting herself into her role as Joan Jett.

  • minnie:

    she looks crazy. this picture is frightening

  • Joan:

    She is playing a teenage Joan Jett and the hair style fits. Jett left home at 15 and soon after formed the Runaways girl band. I think Kristen is doing the right thing and ensuring her entire look (including her hair style) plays homage to Joan Jett. Kristen’s hair will grow back and for Eclipse she can always add extentions.

  • Jaclyn:

    UGH!!! why is everyone freaking out about her hair!!!!???? STOP BEING IMMATURE PPL! BE RESPECTFUL OF HER STRETCHING HER CAREER OUT BEYOND TWILIGHT! geez seriously (sorry If I am sounding bitchy) but GOD! she is an actress! I mean look at Rob in the movies hes done??? he looked ridiculous BUT he did what he had to do to be an actor! so give kristen some respect!

  • kellan fan:

    cool. i think it suits her

  • Ashley!:

    i totally agree with you Jaclyn…i think its cool for her to be stretching her horizons.

  • rhiannon:

    omg! i would have worn a wig instead of getting THAT as an everday haircut! it’s horrible. it didnt even look good on joan!

    rhi

  • dana:

    people, that’s OBVIOULSY a wig!! she wouldn’t cut her hair like that, hardly any actress would. just like ashley was wearing a wig for her role as alice. and kristen’s hair wasn’t all natural in twilight either, i saw an interview in which they said they used several hair pieces to make the hair look more voluminous..

  • LeXii..Twilighterr:

    i Think It’s Cool (:
    It Shows How Much She Loves Her Acting

  • she look like an uber dike with her new haircut she used to be so preety and now ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  • HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!! SHE DOES ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE JOAN JETT!!!!!!!!!!!! (I wonder when the movie is coming out)?

  • Cullentwins:

    its called a wig! good for her and getting other oportunities but man that looks badddd. :P

  • RayRayBlack:

    lol she really loves her career eh? Anyways, I think its inspiring that she would go to that extent in order to expand her acting career… good job Kristen!!!

    She really does look badddd though! HE HE!!! :)

  • erin:

    i hope that is a wig . Oh well thats why god invented hair extensions to fix her up as pretty bella again

  • Laura:

    Kristen, “Darlin” you look great as Joan Jett! Brings back some fond memories, of my years going to concerts! Look
    forward to seeing the movie!

  • CRYSTAL AKA LEAH:

    i think it’s great that she is so dedicated 2 a role…even if it is a wig, it takes some balls 2 go out in public like that.lol.jk. but, yeah, kudos 2 her=]
    CAN’T WAIT 4 NEW MOON!!!!

  • jacqueline:

    people need to leave kristin alone, regarding her hair. its for her art. the dedication alone deserves a round of applause instead of all the criticism that ive read. i think she looks great and believe that she’s going to do joan jett justice.

  • Teresa:

    It looks bad…but is Joan jetts hair style way back when. Kris gots some serious balls for cutting it. I think she will do a fantastic job as Joan jett she totally has that edgy attitude! This will bring her to the top of her acting career! GO KRIS and CNT WAIT FOR THE PREVIEW FOR THIS!

  • Tatum Chan:

    noooooo where did ur locks go? :O

  • LeXii..Twilighterr:

    Its Obviously A Wig O_o

  • nolechick6=rosealie:

    All I can think of when I see the new do is…”I love rock n roll, put another dime in the jukebox baby”!!!

  • sarah:

    Strangley enough, I don’t think it is a wig :S I think it is great how she is dedicated to her role I give her all the best

  • Twilight 1# fan:

    Ugly hair. first she should wash it, next, she should where a wig instead of damaging her hair. very dissapointed.

    :(

  • Donna:

    the way i see it is thats its her hair and her life she can do what ever she wants. You go girl just be your self and your a great actress

  • raven owston:

    ok Id admit it it’s a great hair style for today but it is what joan looked like. I wish it was a wig but i dont think so because if it was she wouldn’t have it on in public especially if we’er not sure they’er even filming yet. But seriosly leav her alone about the hair it is HER hair after all and as much as I like her old hair it is her choice and also think of it this way she is in away saying she won’t be tied down to one movie so good for her! o by the way it is called method acting when an actor/actress emmerses his/herself into a role.

  • raven owston:

    i ment isn’t great hair style. sry bout that

  • Victoria:

    I loved her big brown curls :(

  • nadine:

    she looks like a crackwhore. oh.. did I really say that? uhmm well

  • Allie:

    she is supposed 2 do a make-out scene in that movie with dakota fanning

  • foreverinyourheart:

    You know, I give her major kudos on this! She looks wonderful and she’s so dedicated to her role as an actor! *clapping* Good for you Kstew. Do what you need to do for your roles! Awesome!

  • The Original Lily:

    Good for Kristen, I like how she’s not sticking with one role. Who says you have to be stuck with type casting. Here’s to hoping she makes Joan Jett and the rest of The Runaways proud :) (and here’s to hoping that hair cut doesn’t stay to long :p )

  • Bella:

    OMG!!!!! god i really hope thats a wig her hair was so beautiful b4! but if its not then good for yu kristen, that just shows how dedicated to her work she is.
    And to Allie, does she seriously have to make out with with Dakota Fanning in that movie?!

  • OMG!!!! i wish they would stop making fun of kristen she can do what she wants with her hair!

  • Mrs. Cullen1.14159:

    YUCK!!!! Looks weird.

  • Blue Eyed Vamp:

    0.0 What. did. she. do. to. her. HAIR?!? She was my icon! My style icon! *hyperventilate* I loved her brown curls too :’(

  • KStew Krew:

    She is gonna make the best Joan Jett ever!!! She is so awesome…as usual. Still LOVE HER and the hair is just right…my god..look how much she looks like Joan…scary! Can’t wait to see this movie. Everything will be just fine for the next two Twilight installments ppl….trust and have faith.

    TEAM KRISTEN!!!

  • thats her real hair you no WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • frankiee:

    Her beautiful hair is gone =(
    Gah, she doesn’t even look like Joan, she just looks like a drug addict. And why the hell is Joan getting her own movie anyway? One of the most overrated musicians of all time.

  • jenna:

    wow u already were doin some pretty funcky and non hip stuff that i did 70 years ago but this is goin 2 far! u should never go out in puplic trying 2 look like a male hobo with dred locks! i know i should like one of those non fun oldies but the next time u try 2 hide from the press dress like a female!

  • sherry:

    ok,she looks like a male w/ that hair. it looks terable on her and what is w/ the t-shirt? if that is not for the film she is filming(which looks really stupid) i don’t no y she is wearing it. my grandmother jenna dresses better than that. also i think kristen is a really bad actress and has no natural talent. its all fake. her look in the twilight saga is better than what it is like now in this movie.

  • sarah - elizabeth:

    OMG she’s a silly girl for cutting her hair, she’s going to have to wear hair pieces or maybe even a wig for bella now.

  • O…M…G What did Kristen do to her beautiful locks she looks like a freakin retard now/ or a drug addict
    WHY……KRISTEN……WHY (sob sob) WHY HOW COULD U DO THIS TO UR BELOVED FANS WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ms kenzie clearwarer:

    zomg! LOVE the hair! She’s really rocking the look. I think im gonna get my hair cut like that.. maybe dye it red. She looks awesome as Joan! I’m glad she’s playin her, but I hope Bella’s hair isn’t messed up now xD

You’re really not that good a mechanic, Edward. Maybe you should have Rosalie take a look at it tonight, just so you look good if Mike decides to let you help, you know. Not that it wouldn’t be fun to watch his face if Rosalie showed up to help. — Bella Swan, Eclipse | Chapter 2
