Kristen Stewart wants to do “the gayest thing you’ve ever seen in your life.”

The former Twilight star stripped down for the most recent cover of Rolling Stone on Wednesday, posing with her hand inside a jockstrap while gazing seductively at the camera.

The actor, 33, paired the Bike Athletics undergarment with an unzipped black leather Vena Cava vest, which exposed her toned torso.

Her mullet-like ‘do was styled in a wet look, with her brunette fringe framing her face, reports Page Six.

Stewart, who came out as queer in 2017, said she wanted to “send a message” and “flip the gender script” with the risqué cover.

“If I got through the entire ‘Twilight’ series without ever doing a Rolling Stone cover, it’s because the boys were the sex symbols,” she told the outlet, referencing her co-stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.”

“Now, I want to do the gayest f**king thing you’ve ever seen in your life,” she went on.

“If I could grow a little mustache, if I could grow a f**king happy trail and unbutton my pants, I would. Guys — I’m sorry — but their f**king pubes are shoved in my face constantly, and I’m like, ‘Ummmm, bring it in.’

Another snap from the sultry photoshoot showed Stewart spreading her legs while wearing a graphic tee that read, “Eat me.”

She also modelled a vintage Winlit jacket and seductively stuck her finger in her mouth before subverting expectations in floral underwear while striking traditionally male poses.

At another point in the photoshoot, she posed mid-outfit change, lifting her T-shirt over her head to expose her bare back.

The Charlie’s Angels actor reflected on her past obsession with seeming “normal and hot” after she was bullied for showing up to high school with her legs unshaven.

“I was like, ‘Cool. I’m going to do everything I can to try and f**king figure out how to look like a girl and get these guys to like me,’” she recalled.

However, Stewart noted that she’s “never felt like I have performed a femininity in order to reap its benefits in a way that felt like a lie.”

“I’m very fluid, and I’ve never felt like, ‘Oh, wow, I was doing this lie for a long time in order to get jobs,’” she continued.

“That would be wrong. I have had a good time playing with all of the tonal qualities. But there’s so much room for success when you choose the girlie one. There’s no room for this other one.”

Elsewhere in the interview, the actor admitted that she struggled with severe anxiety at the height of her Twilight frame.

She revealed that her mental health suffered so much she was hospitalised after finding herself “unable to unclench her first.”

“They were like, ‘She’s dehydrated.’ I was like, ‘I’m not dehydrated. I’m f**king flipping out,’” she explained.

“They gave me an IV and a mild sedative, and I started calming down and my hands started opening up.”
