Kiki's Birthday Delivery


Now that pfeiffer pfestivities have concluded, shall we quickly celebrate the date of birth of one of my absolute favourite young ladies (and I know she's a fave of some you guys, RIGHT?!) Well, Kirsten "Kiki" Dunst turns 24 today. To tide yourself over until the release of what is sure to be one of the most interesting (to say the least, the best to the say the most) films of the year, Sofia Coppola's Marie Antionette, click the banner below to see the new trailer. And she also has a little movie called Spiderman 3 in the works to be released in the 07. Any of y'all heard of it? Apparently it's a sequel. Who knew? Ciao bellas.



Here's a question though - Did Kirsten get the nickname "Kiki" because she voiced Kiki in the english-language version of Miyazaki's Kiki's Delivery Service, by pure virtue of her name or a weird coincidental combination of the two?

No, Kirsten got the mickname "Kiki" because when she was little, she couldn't pronounce her real name. "Kiki" was the best she could do.

ooh. so it was just a happy accident that she voiced Kiki in Kiki's Delivery Service. How wonderful.

Kirsten Dunst is a talented slut. I loathe her, and what she did to Jakey's feelings.

All my friends hate Kirten, pointing to her so-called strained delivery and vacant expressions. I, on the other hand, am always there to defend her. I thought she was terrific in Bring it On, Interview with the Vampire and The Virgin Suicides. I also enjoyed that she took the Mary Jane character in a different (welcome) direction in the Spider Man films.

I will undoubtedly love her in Marie Antoinette.

"and what she did to Jakey's feelings."

Besides, I thought Jake didn't dig girls. :p

She dumped him for being "boring"! Who would drop a babe like Jake?
