Last month, Kristen was on the cover of Rolling Stone wearing a leather vest and a jock strap, posing with her hand down her underwear. She told the publication, "If I got through the entire Twilight series without ever doing a Rolling Stone cover, it’s because the boys were the sex symbols. Now, I want to do the gayest fucking thing you’ve ever seen in your life. If I could grow a little mustache, if I could grow a fucking happy trail and unbutton my pants, I would. Guys — I’m sorry — but their fucking pubes are shoved in my face constantly."

Multiple people, both men and women, over the years have covered Rolling Stone topless, in a state of undress, or totally nude.

While appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Stephen said that CBS had actually asked him not to show the cover. "They thought that would be not a good idea," he said, "I don't know why."
