Kristen Stewart is no stranger to pushing boundaries, and her latest creative endeavor is no exception. The Twilight and Personal Shopper actress has teamed up with L.A.-based indie rock band Lord Huron for their haunting new track, Who Laughs Last. Not only does Stewart lend her smoky vocals to the song in a mesmerizing spoken-word monologue, but she also stars in its atmospheric music video, making this her official recorded music debut.
Kristen Stewart’s First Music Project, ‘Who Laughs Last’

The song is a hypnotic blend of noir storytelling and a pulsing groove, with Kristen Stewart narrating a tale of a late-night drive that feels both exhilarating and suffocating. Her soft, poetic delivery builds a vivid world, where the open road becomes a character all its own. “Above me shone a terrifying number of stars, spelling out the cold indifference of the universe,” she murmurs, her voice both intimate and otherworldly. The song takes a poignant turn when Lord Huron frontman Ben Schneider joins with the aching chorus, “I’m gonna leave that city far behind and get a long, long way from there/I’ve got a burning feeling deep inside of me and don’t know where to put it.”
The accompanying music video is a cinematic gem, drenched in moody visuals that showcase Stewart driving down deserted highways, chain-smoking cigarettes, and exuding her signature enigmatic charm. The sparse imagery is interrupted by fleeting moments of connection, including a brief glimpse of Schneider at a weathered blue payphone, adding a layer of intrigue to the unfolding narrative.

Schneider revealed that Stewart was his dream collaborator for the track, citing his admiration for her work with filmmaker Olivier Assayas in films like Clouds of Sils Maria and Personal Shopper. “While I was working on Who Laughs Last?, I kept hearing Kristen’s voice in my head,” Schneider shared. “What the hell, I’ll reach out and see.” To his surprise, Stewart not only agreed to the project but fully immersed herself in its creative process. “She immediately got what I was going for and had great ideas to boot. She’s just a great person and so creative and open. It was the kind of collaboration you dream of, honestly.”
The result is a hauntingly beautiful fusion of music, storytelling, and visual artistry that perfectly complements Lord Huron’s signature style. With Who Laughs Last, Kristen Stewart once again proves she’s not just an actress but a multifaceted artist unafraid to explore uncharted territory. Whether she’s driving through empty highways or delving into the mysteries of the universe, we’re so ready for more Kristen Stewart music. Please, Kristen.
