Her personal life may be in turmoil but at least professionally things are looking up for Kristen Stewart, Breaking Celebrity News is exclusively reporting.
K-Stew, 22, has been reveling in the glory of beating The Hunger Games beauty, Jennifer Lawrence – whom she sees as her biggest rival – to the lead role in the big screen adaptation of William Styron’s novel, Lie Down in Darkness.
It’s small consolation for the Twilight actress who has had a tough few weeks since pictures were published of her and her married Snow White and the Hunstman director Rupert Sanders in a series of compromising positions.
“Kristen is obviously down about what happened with her and Robert Pattinson – but she danced a jig of delight when she found out she beat Jennifer Lawrence to a movie role.
“She is insanely jealous of Jennifer – not just because she feels The Hunger Games has stolen some of Twilight’s thunder – but because everyone was talking about her as such a beautiful actress.
“Kristen has never been comfortable in her own skin and feels threatened by Jennifer’s good looks. And the thing with Jennifer is, she isn’t just attractive, she’s a talented actor.
“Jennifer’s a threat to Kristen, she’s only a year younger, so chances are they will continue to battle it out for the same movie roles.
“The pair of them are very competitive too - they won’t give up any future roles without a fight,” the source said.
