Kristen Stewart is voicing her opinion about the existence of sexism in the movie industry in Hollywood, according to a new interview the "Twilight" star gave.

"Women inevitably have to work a little bit harder to be heard," she told Harper's Bazaar UK. "Hollywood is disgustingly sexist. . . . It's so offensive it's crazy. Women inevitably have to work a little bit harder to be heard." The actress did not offer specific examples of when she may have experienced this during her career in Hollywood.

"Fame is the worst thing in the world. Especially if it's pointless. When people say, 'I want to be famous', Why? You don't do anything," she told the magazine.

The actress also opened up about her weight.

She said: "I'm a little bigger than sample size when I'm eating cheeseburgers and am happy and comfortable.

"If I'm stressed or working, the weight falls off. My weight and my sleep are tied to my nervous system. Sometimes I'll sleep for 12 hours a night and sometimes sleep just doesn't exist for me for a couple of months."

Kristen Stewart shot to fame with her role as Bella in the "Twilight" franchise. Her personal life also became a source of daily media fodder after she began dating her  co-star Robert Pattinson, and then cheated on him with Snow White And The Huntsman director Rupert Sanders.
