The Runaways star, 19, is denying rampant rumors romantically linking her to the British heatthrob, who plays her love interest vampire Edward Cullen in the films.

“Robert and I are great friends but I understand why you would assume that, when we lean on each other for support, there must be something more.”

The actress added, “And I’m not cricitizing anyone for thinking it either. If anything, they’re really perceptive because they can see a closeness.”

Kristen is currently in Canada filming The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third film in the Twilight series.

Keira Knightley Scarlett Johansson Competing For Role Of Eliza Doolittle “My Fair Lady” Remake

Keira Knightley will compete with Scarlett Johansson for the role of Eliza Doolittle in a remake of the 1964 film My Fair Lady.

(Ugh — Can’t Hollywood at least leave My Fair Lady alone? As if it isn’t bad enough that they’re remaking Teen Wolf!)

Last year, the Pirates of the Caribbean star auditioned for the role originally portrayed by sixties sweetheart Audrey Hepburn, and even begun singing lessons in hopes of playing the Cockney florist. But it looks like Keira will have some competition from the Lost In Translation actress, according to Sir Cameron Mackintosh — who is producing the remake.

“I have two actresses as potential Elizas, one British, the other American. You’d know their names, but I’m not letting on,” Mackintosh told The Telegraph over the weekend.

Who would you like to see play Eliza Doolittle in a My Fair Lady remake?

According to The Daily Express, Oscar executives hav been struggling to form a list of Best Actress nominees for next year’s ceremony, and Streep is rumoured to be the favorite to pick up her third Oscar for her potrayal of French culinary ace Julia Child in the comedy Julie & Julia.

“It’s only just dawning that there’s a distinct lack of potentials in the best actress category,” an Oscar insider blabbed to the publication on Sunday.

“It’s been a pretty lackluster year for movies in general but it seems that no one wrote any decent lead roles for women. There are many to choose from when it comes to supporting actresses but very few in the lead.”

“It looks like Meryl Streep may do it again as she has played the lead to acclaim in two films out this year,” the source added.
