Kristen Stewart has reflected on her coming-out moment on Saturday Night Live (SNL).

Back in 2017, the Twilight icon publicly opened up about her sexuality during her debut opening monologue on the long-running sketch comedy show.

After joking about US President Donald Trump's bizarre interest in her past relationship with Robert Pattinson, Stewart said: "The president is not a huge fan of me, but that is so okay. And Donald, if you didn't like me then, you're really probably not going to like me now, because I'm hosting SNL and I'm like so gay dude."

Now, nearly nine years after her first SNL appearance, the beloved talent has peeled back the curtain on why she wanted to come out on the hit comedy series.
