What Stella Did Next

She has four million Followers and dates Kristen Stewart, But Stella Maxwell is refreshingly down to earth. She's also the new face of Pinko.

What Stella Did Next

WHEN ASKED ABOUT role models, Stella Maxwell immediately references Angelina Jolie in the 1998 biographical HBO film Gia. In it, Angelina plays real-life supermodel Gia Carangi, who was outspoken about her bisexuality in 1970s New York during the AIDS epidemic – and it was the film that catapulted Angelina into the Hollywood stratosphere.

It’s perhaps fitting that the Belgian born, Northern Irish model would be inspired by such a woman. While Stella – who has modelled for clients as diverse as Versace and Victoria’s Secret and has four million Instagram followers to boot – has never publicly commented on her sexuality, she has been dating Twilight star Kristen Stewart for the past two years. Before that, she dated Miley Cyrus. But like Gia, Stella is a female model in the public realm who is an advocate for LGBT rights.
