There is no doubt that Kristen Stewart became a household name when she starred in the American romantic fantasy film series called Twilight, alongside Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. The saga, which was based on the 2005 novel of Stephenie Meyer, became a global hit that grossed over $3.3 billion worldwide. It, also, cemented Kristen and Robert as two of the most bankable stars in Hollywood.
Kristen Stewart tested positive for COVID-19 while working on a film
Recently, numerous fans were shocked after it was learned that Kristen Stewart fell sick on the set of the Happiest Season movie. Her co-star, Aubrey Plaza, divulged that the film faced a huge challenge when a significant number of people got infected with the coronavirus. She added that no one even had a clue that they are already carrying the deadly virus.
During an interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Aubrey Plaza said everything happened in February. She recalled that, at the time, many people have been talking and making fun of the COVID-19 without even bothering to understand how serious the fatal disease is. Lucky for her, Aubrey said she was not infected when people around her got the coronavirus already.
At the moment, Kristen Stewart appears to be healthy after contracting COVID-19. In fact, she will play as Princess Diana in an upcoming new film.
Ben Shapiro slammed Kristen Stewart’s LGBTQ-themed movie
Meanwhile, Daily Wire editor Ben Shapiro expressed his disappointment over the fact that Kristen Stewart’s lesbian film was released just a few weeks before Christmas Day, which is a very important religious occasion for some. He stated that the existence of the movie would “slap your sensibilities in the face and treat you like you’re a fool.”
Ben Shapiro suggested that Hulu went in a direction wherein conservatives with conservative sensibilities would have to watch a movie that goes against their religious beliefs. He said the new film of Kristen Stewart could make some conservative families think that the things they have believed all these years are “a bunch of cr*p,” which is certainly something that should not happen during a religious holiday such as Christmas Day.
Hulu, Kristen Stewart, and other cast members of the Happiest Season movie have yet to comment on Ben Shapiro’s remarks. For starters, the American romantic comedy film centers on the story of a lesbian couple named Harper Caldwell and Abby Holland. After learning that Abby hates celebrating Christmas after her parents passed away, Harper invited her girlfriend to celebrate the holidays with her family. However, things started to go south when Abby started to feel more like an outsider after Harper denied her sexuality, making the former worried about the future of their relationship.
