Former ELLE cover star Kristen Stewart is fully aware she's not liked by certain Twilight fans online, and guess what? She really isn't that bothered about it.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, she joked that if you praise her on Twitter, you'll receive some fury in return – generally in the form of "f**k her", after her high-profile split from Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson.
In her typical cool-girl nonchalant way, Kristen explained: "I don't view the whole Twilight blow-up as being generally traumatic. It would take someone with a really unhealthy amount of ego to be upset that everyone doesn't love them," Stewart explained.
"It would be silly to say I don't care what people think of my work and who I am, but stuff is polarising, period."
You could almost say that Pattinson got the fans in the divorce – but Stewart said she doesn't regret doing Twilight in any way.
"I really never felt bogged down by Twilight. Every step turns you into the person you are, and yeah, [Twilight] shaped me enormously. Not just those movies, but the subsequent effect," Stewart reflected.

Since Twilight, Stewart has generally appeared in a different kind of movie to the blockbuster vampire franchise, like her upcoming ghost story Personal Shopper, as well as revealing that she isn't putting a label on her sexuality after further intense speculation about her personal relationships.
"I didn't talk about my first relationships that went public because I wanted things that are mine to be mine. I hated it that details of my life were being turned into a commodity," she recalled.
"But considering I had so many eyes on me, I suddenly realised [my private life] affects a greater number of people than just me. It was an opportunity to surrender a bit of what was mine, to make even one other person feel good about themselves."
She added: "When I was dating Rob, the public were the enemy – and that is no way to live."
Personal Shopper is out in US cinemas on March 10, and opens in UK cinemas on March 17. Watch a trailer below:
