Beanie Feldstein Opens Up About Falling in Love With Girlfriend Bonnie Chance Roberts

Beanie Feldstein is on the cover of Teen Vogue‘s October 2019 issue, out now.

Here’s what the 26-year-old Booksmart star had to say…

On frequently portraying raw, complex female characters on the cusp of self-actualization: “I just feel honored to be a part of stories that, had I been 15 when they came out, I would have been first in line at the movie theater.”

On falling in love with producer Bonnie Chance Roberts: “Not to sound flippant, but I was in love with her and all of her, and she’s a woman. That’s not scaring me or deterring me. And it wasn’t just women in general; it was her specifically.”

On co-producing the third season of the Ryan Murphy-produced anthology series on FX, American Crime Story, in which she’s set to play Monica Lewinsky: “Ryan Murphy is a champion of women. As a 26-year-old woman who still feels new to the industry, the fact that he would say he wants me to do this and help produce it is deeply empowering.”
