Twilight's Kristen Stewart back in the spotlight

TORONTO (AP) - Twilight's newest vampire re-emerged in public at the Toronto Film Festival.

Kristen Stewart made her first public appearance in nearly two months Thursday night to promote her latest movie. The 22-year star went into lock-down mode after she publicly apologised for having a tryst with the married director of her last film, Snow White And The Huntsman.

For her return, hundreds of fans eagerly gathered early in the morning on Thursday, awaiting her walk on the red carpet for On the Road. It's based on the classic Jack Kerouac novel, and one of Stewart's favourite books.

"I'm somebody that has loved the book their whole life," Stewart said, first reading it at age 14.
