As Kristen Stewart Promotes On The Road In San Francisco, We Have To Ask: Is This The Longest Promo Tour EVER?

Another weekend, another On The Road screening. Kristen Stewart joined Hollywood hottie Garrett Hedlund at the film's Vanity Fair event on Friday, presented by Hugo Boss at Skywalker Ranch in San Francisco. As ever, K-Stew looked artfully dishevelled, teaming a grey blazer over a white T-shirt with black leather trousers and blood-red heels to match a slick of lippy. We are, of course, loving the look but can't help feeling a sense of deja vu. Seriously, how much promotion does one film need?

It all began back in May 2012 when a pre-scandal Kristen arrived at the Cannes Film Festival wearing a pair of yellow Balenciaga trousers to promote the film adaptation of Jack Kerouac's novel. That evening, she was on the red carpet with Kirsten Dunst and Tom Sturridge swathed in more Balenciaga, this time a printed maxi dress. Critics who saw the film were excitedly chattering about Kristen's role as Mary Lou - sweaty dancing! Nakedness! A threesome! Little did we know that seven - yes, SEVEN - months later, the star would still be, well, on the road promoting the film.

Because the appearance at Cannes was followed by an appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival. This time, Kristen looked utterly fierce in a sheer embroidered frock by Zuhair Murad. Next came the film's New York screening followed by the LA premiere when the actress memorably flashed her abs in a Balenciaga jumpsuit - the last Balenciaga ensemble we've seen her in since Nicolas Ghesquière announced his departure from the French fashion house that K-Stew is the face of. Oh, and then there was another New York screening.

Along the way, an unfolding scandal has followed Kristen's red carpet appearances. Slap bang in the middle of the never-ending promo tour, those pictures surfaced of her kissing Rupert Sanders, leading to an albeit temporary split from Twilight dreamboat Robert Pattinson. The promotional trail was extended due to Kristen's affair the film's release date being postponed and it finally landed in UK cinemas on 12th October 2012. As for those poor US fans who've been waiting since May for a glimpse of topless K-Stew, the film is due to hit US cinemas on December 21st. Phewf for that.

Kristen, you deserve a well-earned holiday. Take a look at the star's OTR outfits in the gallery above...
