The majority of you voted that Kristen Stewart's public speaking is improving and she totally agrees with you! Kristen braved Jay Leno's stage last night on The Tonight Show to promote her new film The Runaways, but also cleared up the talk around her nervous throat-clearing tic displayed on stage at the Oscars. "This will be baffling to a lot of people," she said, "but I was so proud of myself that night! I was like, whoa! I didn't, like, fall down or anything!"
