Narnia's Georgie Henley Mentions Kristen and Rob

Georgie with co-star, Ben Barnes


Q: What actors out there would each of you want your careers to emulate?

Georgie: Well, I think Johnny Depp has a really great career because he's always chosen different genres and always gone for the more outside roles. He's never taken the easy option. That's something I really admire and would love to emulate. People also tend to pick on Kristen Stewart, but I think she's done really great job going from acting alongside Jodie Foster in "Panic Room" to, now, being a fully-fledged -- and I think very talented -- actor. I think she does very well and deserves much better press than she gets. So I definitely look up to her career as well comingsoon via via

And she has a crush on Rob.
Now and again during our interview she refers to boys as ‘fit’ or ‘cute’ and talks of her teenage crushes.
‘I did like Russell Brand, but he has gone for Katy Perry and I am not like her at all. And I have got a bit of a thing for Bill Nighy, who is really quite old. And I absolutely love Simon Cowell. Then, of course, Robert Pattinson – although I am a bit turned off because so many girls love him.DailyMail via/via

Wonder why she is turned off by so many girls loving him? So many girls love him because he is absolutely lovable, adorable, fuckable. (oops she is way too young to think that. That's just me and my pervy mind).

okay now i love this girl! i have to say, for me a big test of how i will get along with someone, or whether we will be friends, is to ask them "how do you feel about kristen stewart?" if they dislike her, or go on some annoying rant about her being "awkward", then i know we will NOT be friends. if they appreciate her for the kind, caring, complicated, perfect soul she is, then i know we will get along amazingly. i think it says a lot about a person to like both rob and kristen. it says something about their priorities in life (i.e. caring about humility and kindness over flash or dominance), and means that they dont blindly follow what the press says. this girl has a great head on her shoulders (clearly)- im sure she will do well!!

I envision the Robsten shippers as a proud mother that hands out cookies to kids that are nice to their kids(Rob and Kris). A whole basket of lovely baked good has been sent to Georgie especially for saying what she said about Kristen.
Proud mama has been sending cookies to Reese, Jimmy Fallon and now ads Georgie to her long list.
Chelsea Handler, Perez and David Letterman are on her list of 'people who deserve full on bitch slaps' for a while. LOL

I love that Georgie commented on how talented an actor Kristen is and not on her looks. And when she said she's turned off by RP because so many girls love him, that made me laugh. There's some truth to that. I really like Georgie. She's seems wise and mature for her age.

lol at anon "Chelsea Handler, Perez and David Letterman are on her list of 'people who deserve full on bitch slaps' for a while." lol so true! i cant watch or read any of those people from now on- it says a lot about their character to be hating on such beautiful souls. oh, also add celebuzz to that list. they are always writing rude stories about them. but thats okay- way more lovers than haters. and what you said about handing out cookies- thats exactly how i feel! if i had any cookies and could give them to reese, georgie, and ALL the others, i so would!!

The difference between Rob & Kris is that one can practically get away with murder while the other gets crucified for the minimum of slight. It is sad but true and it is so obvious that a young girl like Georgie would notice that. May Rob and Kris acknowledge this fact and yet continue to love each other.

I can't wait to see Narnia and that's actually so great what they said about our bb girl :))
Kris is of course a very talented actress(the most talented of her generation).
They are sooo sweet!I love them!

I was already a Narnia and Georgie Henley fan before,but now I can say my love for her has skyrocketed! For someone who's only fifteen,it's great to see that she sees what a talented actress Kristen is and defends her from all of the hate she's recieved.

I've noticed Kristen has gained alot of respect in the U.K. for her films in and outside of Twilight. Not to mention she's in love with one of their most sought after men in the world and they see that Kristen loves and respects Rob for who he is. Georgie is definitely very mature for her age and I'm glad she came to Kristen's defense. It should make some take notice that the hateful comments are not appreciated by her supporters-Rob,her co-workers/friends or her fans.

Wow I didn't know that she mentioned Rob as well as Kristen. Didn't see any of the other fansites mention it. Thanks for finding out.

Good point made. Kristen has gotten respect from the UK because of Bafta and other movies. UK have learned that she has talent beyond Twilight because of movies like Adventureland. The bafta was decided by a UK film council which said a lot and Mickey even defended her.

IMO I don't think Rob has gotten that level of respect in the UK just yet. I'm British so this is just my view. Most people I know who aren't fans of Twilight either don't like him or just think he's good looking. There's little love for his acting. But thats just because he hasn't done any big non-twi movies yet so a lot of people judge him on Twilight. That should change soon though when WFE and BA come out.

@Calihi27 i don't think she's too young for that word :P
