With Kristen Stewart’s help, anyone can be a lesbian icon—or, at least, dress like one. For a very queer installment of Seth Goes Day Drinking, Meyers spent the day drinking with the Love Lies Bleeding star, who gave the Late Night host his first ever “lesbian makeover.”
Stewart and Meyers conducted their queer makeover at an appropriately fitting location: Boxers NYC, a popular gay bar in Chelsea. There, they sipped on Panic Room cocktails (i.e., an energy drink, an espresso martini, and a Tic Tac substituting for a Xanax) and Bloody Marys, inspired by Stewart’s stint as vampire Bella Swan in the Twilight franchise. Stewart didn’t take it personally when Meyers admitted that he’d never seen any of the Twilight films, joking: “You better be giving me your blood for this.”
In the middle of their day-drinking session, Stewart changed from a dark T-shirt to a plain white tee and tapped into an incredibly dumb scene written by Meyers and his staff. “Thank God you’re here. Your father, he’s had a fart attack…. He now has to fart through a tube,” said Stewart, stifling her laughter. Meyers cut her off mid-scene for her delivery, but Stewart stood by her choices. “That was about to go somewhere, through the laughing and vulnerability. It was about to be something I was going to discover,” she joked. “Don’t cut me, man.” Spoken like a true artist.
After a game of darts, it was time for the lesbian makeover. Meyers correctly identified that Stewart is a “lesbian icon,” and asked her to help style him. “Here’s the deal, Kristen Stewart. I have a bunch of lesbian accessories and clothes behind us, and I am now counting on you to turn me into a lesbian icon,” said Meyers. “It’s a lesbian makeover.”
“Oh God,” deadpanned Stewart.
Jokes aside, it looks like Stewart had a ball dressing up the very game Meyers. “Hey Kristen, announce me!” Meyers told the Spencer star, who responded, “Seth, you want to come out?” (Get it?) The final ensemble consisted of a jean jacket, a white tee, and some stylish see-through aviator sunglasses. Stewart topped off the ensemble with a green beanie. “Do you not feel cooler than you’ve ever felt?” she asked. Meyers’s answer? “I feel as though I’ve reverted to what I’m supposed to be.” See? An ally can look like anything.
