More quotes by Kirsten Dunst
You can never get enough of 'Jeopardy.'
Kirsten Dunst
I love my snaggle fangs. They give me character and character is sexy.
Kirsten Dunst
I'm happiest when I'm just hanging out with my friends... it really doesn't matter what we do.
Kirsten Dunst
When I was younger, I always did movies that teenagers would watch, not adults. I did 'Crazy/Beautiful' or comedies like 'Bring It On.'
Kirsten Dunst
Every movie I do, I always use things that have happened in my life. Funny moments, anything. If it just sticks out I'll write it down and use that, too, because it has to come out of you. But no one can work when they're depressed. I don't think I'd physically be able to do it if I were depressed.
Kirsten Dunst
Madonna is my role model shes such a powerful woman. I love Gwenyth Paltrow, shes an actress I aspire to be like. And, of course, my mom. She drove me from New Jersey to New York every day for commercials so I could get where I am today.
Kirsten Dunst
I think every woman goes through a relationship where she is with a guy that is really not right for her. You get lost in it.
Kirsten Dunst
I feel very lucky that I don't have to rely on a man to give me financial security. That's a big deal.
Kirsten Dunst
The performances that I love are ones like Gena Rowlands in 'A Woman Under the Influence,' where women are allowed to be messy and imperfect. It's that kind of woman that has always inspired me to seek roles that are a little out of the box. I just haven't always had the opportunity to do them.
Kirsten Dunst
I've always used my own personal emotions and things that I've gone through in my life to build a character. The work that I do before a film feels almost like therapy, between me and whoever I'm playing.
Kirsten Dunst
I was a big Guns N' Roses fan when I was seven. My friend who lived across the street had long dark curly hair and I had long blonde hair, so I'd dress up as Axl and she'd be Slash, and we'd rock out in front of the mirror singing 'Patience.'
Kirsten Dunst
Obviously I’m a feminist. It’s ridiculous that anyone would think other of me.
Kirsten Dunst
Being an actress doesn't make you popular in school.
Kirsten Dunst
I don't really want to talk about my personal experience. It's something that I have talked about just because it came out in the press but I've tried to navigate the waters in my own comfort-ability.
Kirsten Dunst
The real secret to total gorgeousness is to believe in yourself.
Kirsten Dunst
When you feel good is when you're not afraid to feel the worst.
Kirsten Dunst
I think you see in people's eyes what they've been through. Anything in their lives shows up in their eyes.
Kirsten Dunst
My mother told me that when I was born a wave of feeling came over her. She just knew that I was destined to be an actress.
Kirsten Dunst
It's such a private thing - 'my process' - I can just say that the work that I do is like therapy between me and the character.
Kirsten Dunst
Doing 'All Good Things' really felt like I was acting for myself rather than anyone else. It gave me a freedom I'd never had before, or knew I had, to do whatever I want to, and to argue my opinions and not just feel like the cute girl on set or the girl in a boy's club. I figured out how I could be both. And it's been different ever since.
