TMZ has video of the "Twilight" and "On the Road" star standing behind a gate outside a Los Angeles building Monday, apparently waiting for a car. When the video begins, she is already clearly irritated with the prying paparazzo and using profanity against him as he goads her on about ex-boyfriend Robert Pattinson.
She directs some strong language at him before saying, "You don't deserve to breathe the same air I do."
Ouch. Shutterbugs, take note. Don't mess with K-Stew.
