It’s the role of her life and earned her an Oscar and a Golden Globe nomination: Kristen Stewart plays Princess Diana in the biopic “Spencer”. For this role, she even wanted to vomit in front of the cameras.
Kristen Stewart gave everything she had to play Princess Diana. It is known that the “Princess of Hearts” suffered from the eating disorder bulimia. Stewart even wanted to throw up in front of the camera for the authenticity of the recordings, but he couldn’t do it.
“I’ll fucking do anything. I really wanted bulimia disease not to be glossed over,” said Kristen Stewart in an interview with “Vanity Fair” about trying to vomit real in front of the camera. Nevertheless, the actress admits that it was not physically possible for her to take this step.
Spokesman Tom Quinn for the British organization Beat, which has been helping people with eating disorders for 30 years, told the Mirror: “The portrayal of people with eating disorders in film productions can be an excellent way of raising awareness of pathological eating disorders “But it’s crucial that the portrayal is truthful. I would urge the film industry to bring in professionals to do this in the future.”
Kristen Stewart is disappointed in her bulimia portrayal
Despite the film’s ability to earn an Oscar nomination for Kristen Stewart for Best Actress, her portrayal of a bulimic Diana hasn’t garnered widespread attention. Adds Quinn’s colleague, Martha Williams, clinical consultant on Beat, “There are a few aspects of the film that we think glorify the disease of bulimia. Like the moment Kristen Stewart bends over the toilet as Diana in a ball gown.”
The 31-year-old actress regrets not being able to portray it as realistically as possible, saying: “I felt so bad I couldn’t bring myself to throw up. Somehow the thought of Diana was so untouchable.”
