The February issue of W Magazine was dedicated to 2011 Best Performances, and they included Kirsten for her amazing performance in Melancholia.

Here’s a short Q&A done by Lynn Hirschberg that came with the beautiful photo you can find in our gallery:

Lynn Hirschberg: You started acting when you were 4. Did you go to a regular high school?
Kirsten Dunst: Yes. I even went to the prom. I actually borrowed a dress from Sofia Coppola—a beautiful John Galliano burgundy dress that she had worn to the Golden Globes. I was a very lucky girl.

That was before Spider-Man. In Spider-Man, you and Tobey Maguire had an iconic kiss.
Compared to how romantic it looked, it was very unromantic—there was rain running down Tobey’s nose, and he could barely breathe. It really wasn’t fun.

You kissed Brad Pitt in Interview With the Vampire when you were 11 years old. What was that audition like?
The director, Neil Jordan, asked my mother if I was okay. He thought that I was a disturbed child—he found it upsetting that I could cry so easily, but I needed to cry in the audition, so I just kept sobbing. I’d been auditioning for the role over and over, and it was like, God, just give me the role already—I’ll cry, I’ll scream, I’ll do anything!

Kirsten is featured in the March 2012 issue of Vanity Fair magazine. They have posted some videos of their “Hollywood 2012″ issue and one of them has a great Kiki interview. Check it:
