Kristen ranked at # 21
Kristen Stewart is an industry vet, and she’s not even 20 years old. The actress was playing Jodie Foster’s daughter in Panic Room when kids her age were getting their first paper routes. But unlike Haley Joel Osment, Stewart has made the transition from child star to adult actress look relatively easy, namely thanks to her high-profile role as Bella Swan in the big-screen adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’sTwilight. 
When the film hit theaters in November 2008, she and costar Robert Pattinsonexperienced the same kind of unnerving immediate rise to fame that Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet experienced post-Titanic. Posters of Stewart suddenly became makeshift wallpaper inside locker doors in high schools across America, or they substituted as dartboards for all those females who were envious of her onscreen and rumored off-screen time with Pattinson, much to Stewart’s dismay. “I don’t want to be a movie star like Angelina Jolie,” Stewart told BlackBook magazine. “Nothing about being a celebrity is desirable. I’m an actor. It’s bizarre to me that everybody’s so obsessive.” 
Ashley ranked at #41
She grew up in Jacksonville, Florida, but upon deciding to become an actress, she buckled down, finished school early at the age of 17 and booked it west to Hollywood. Although she started her acting career with bit parts on shows likePunk’d and Crossing Jordan, it wasn’t long until Ashley won the part of Alice Cullen in the Twilight franchise, based on Stephenie Meyer’s novels. Reprising her role in both New Moon and the upcoming Eclipse, Ashley Greene makes for at least one good reason to sit through the vampire flicks with your Robert Pattinson-obsessed girlfriend, because you deserve some eye candy too. Also, look for her in 2010’s The Apparition, about a couple haunted by a supernatural being. We promise there are no vampires involved. And if your lustful fantasies aren’t fulfilled there, check out her ad campaign for SoBe Lifewater — we promise you won’t be disappointed.

AskMen: Anna Kendrick Interview

Hey Twilighters, AskMen interviewed Anna Kendrick... check this out! -Liana- (via AskMen.com)

Celebrity is just beginning to dawn on this Twilight alum as she reprises her role as Jessica Stanley in both New Moon and Eclipse. But Anna Kendrick’s star is going to rise above just the tween-lit crowd when audiences catch up with her starring role opposite George Clooney in Juno director Jason Reitman’s latest Oscar-calibrated fare, Up in the Air.

Anna Kendrick was born on August 9, 1985, in Portland, Maine. Her first stab at acting was a fruitful disappointment. In answer to a casting call for the Broadway adaptation of Annie, Kendrick and her family nabbed a New York agent to secure an audition. The Annie role didn’t work out, but the agent landed Kendrick the role of Dinah in the Broadway musical High Society. Kendrick garnered a Tony nomination for the role (she was the second youngest ever to do so). The stage actress made her film debut in Camp, a role that nabbed her the Best Debut nod from the Independent Spirit Awards. The Spirit Awards later honored her with a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her turn as the live-wire debater in Rocket Science. It was this performance that caught the attention of Juno director Jason Reitman, who began to cater a role in his latest movie specifically for the young starlet. So in between her work basking in the Twilight series, Kendrick was going toe-to-toe with George Clooney in Up in the Air, playing a newbie corporate downsizer who develops an efficient way to layoff people online.
AskMen.com : In Up in the Air, you play the new girl at the office who's in way over her head. When you came on the set, did you feel like the new girl who's in way over her head amidst veterans like George Clooney and Vera Farmiga? Anna Kendrick : I think I absolutely connected to the idea that Natalie is trying to sit at the grown-up table and constantly trying to prove that she’s good enough to kind of outperform expectations about her age and gender. That was an easy thing to relate to on this film. I’ve worked with phenomenally talented people, but predominantly young actors. I felt like I was trying to sit at the grown-up table and [was] trying to keep up. That pressure was definitely there.
AM : Was it a learning experience? AK : The scene that I have with George and Vera [Farmiga], where we’re talking about the expectations that we have for our lives -- it was so amazing to get to watch them work. I felt like I was watching Cirque du Soleil.
AM : Apparently Reitman wrote this character thinking of you. AK : I wish he told me that because I thought he absolutely despised me.
AM : Why did you think that? AK : He told me that he was trying to stay very reserved and very professional. He thought giving away that he had me in mind would be putting too much pressure on me. It would be like: “Hey, I wrote this for you, so don’t screw it up”. So he was trying to just stay very professional, but it came across as a little cold. So I thought, I’ve done nothing to impress him; he hates me. So when I got offered the job, I was thinking this makes no sense. I’m not this famous person where the studio would want me. The director clearly hates me. Then I had lunch with him, and he told me all of this. That definitely made me a lot more comfortable. We still debate about whether he should or shouldn’t have maintained the professionalism or let me know that he was rooting for me. I don’t think he should have told me that he wrote it for me, but maybe not making me feel like I was unwelcome would have been nice.
