bullet Kristen Stewart denied entry into bar corner

'Twilight' actress Kristen Stewart was denied entry into a bar in Utah for being underage.

The 19-year-old is two years short of the legal drinking age in the US but attempted to get into the Ed Hardy Shoes Happy Hour event in Park City, Utah, Jan 23 but she was denied entry by a bouncer, reports contactmusic.com.

'As they started walking in, the bouncer stopped them and asked for their IDs. When he informed Kirsten that she couldn't enter because she was underage, she and her friends seemed pretty surprised,' an onlooker was quoted as saying.

'Her friends tried to reason with the bouncer and told them that they just wanted to sit down and relax for 30 minutes but the bouncer still declined them. They huddled up for a few minutes, discussing what to do next and eventually left,' the onlooker added.

Stewart is currently in Utah for the Sundance Film Festival, where she is promoting her upcoming film 'The Runaways'.

The Salt Lake City Sun is essentially a local Salt Lake City newspaper, but with a national and international perspective, designed to provide readers with a one-stop shop for Salt Lake City, national US, regional, and world news coverage, weather and sports information, with live updates on breaking business stories, and what's happening in the financial markets.

The biggest advantage we have is that we are an online newspaper, which means we are constantly refreshing our stories as more and more information comes to hand. Often when a story breaks the initial details are sketchy.

We and our sources around the world work hard to gather more information, verify facts, and provide a perspective of the major stories. Expert opinion often accompanies our articles to better inform readers, and provide a more complete understanding
of the news we deliver.

Financial markets and business reports are regular features as we pin down what's happening, and constantly refresh stock market indice readings, dollar currency rates, and breaking business news reports. Our world sports coverage is a priority, as is our regional news.

We like to think if you're looking for breaking news out of Salt Lake City, Utah, the United States, or the world, you'll look for it first at the Salt Lake City Sun.
