Twilight actress Kristen Stewart has revealed the Jewish song that helped launch her career.

The non-Jewish star, 21, took part in a Chanucah concert when she was at school and her performance was so impressive that she was signed up by an agent.

She told W magazine that she was asked to sing a song about a dreidel.

"I've never celebrated Chanucah - it wasn't in my upbringing, but it was one of those deals where everybody has to pick a song or participate somehow in the chorus," she explained.
