'That was the most terrifying experience of my life': Kristen Stewart opens up on filming dirty dancing scenes for On The Road

She shot to fame playing wholesome Bella Swan in the Twilight franchise.
But Kristen Stewart has admitted making a departure into a grittier role as teen temptress Marylou in On The Road was the 'most terrifying' experience of her life.
The 22-year-old actress opened up on appearing in the film adaptation of the cult Jack Kerouac novel, explaining while shooting dirty dancing scenes and appearing topless was a scary experience, it was 'fun in the end'.
Speaking to chat show host Craig Ferguson on The Late Late Show, she said: 'That was like the most terrifying experience of my life. It was fun in the end, though.'

Showing off her long legs in a black mini, which she teamed with a simple white T-shirt, a black jacket and orange pumps, Kristen explained she attempted a road trip across the US before embarking on the project - but had to turn back around after four days.
She added: 'Yeah, I didn't get all the way but I did attempt a road trip before I shot this movie. I took four days and got to Ohio before I had to turn back around.'

Naming On The Road as her 'favourite book', Kristen explained it was often difficult for certain scenes to appear spontaneous.
She said: 'That was the difficult thing with this movie, trying to be spontaneous. But then we didn't want to not be prepared for it'.
The Twilight actress - who is dating her co-star Robert Pattinson - teased chat show host Craig for not having seen any of the movies in the vampire romance franchise.

She joked: 'Everyone loves Twilight, what's wrong with you?'
Although Kristen - who was just 17 when she accepted the role in On The Road - admitted the dirty dancing scenes were 'terrifying', she previously brushed off her topless scenes in the movie as 'not a big deal'.
Speaking at Toronto International Film Festival earlier this year, she said: 'It didn't bother me. You can do no wrong with [director Walter Salles]. He puts so much inside of you.

'In the four-week rehearsal process, it was okay to ask any question, to bring up any story, to really over-analyse everything and intellectualise everything.'
'Once we got on set, it was so about just breathing and letting it happen. He put so much trust in us, so it was like, "Okay, so I have to take my clothes off?" It's so not a big [deal].'
