Kirsten Dunst: Lingerie Lady in 'Vanity Fair'!

Kirsten Dunst looks sexy in lingerie for a portrait featured in Vanity Fair‘s 2012 Hollywood Portfolio for the March 2012 issue.

The 29-year-old actress, who gave a career-defining performance in last year’s Melancholia, was photographed for the mag by Tom Munro.

Kirsten has a personal connection to the depressed character she played in Melancholia – she herself checked into a Utah clinic for treatment of depression after finishing work on Spider-Man 3.

Kirsten is separated from this year’s Oscar honoree James Earl Jones by just two degrees.

“Dunst appeared in Mother Night with Nick Nolte, who played the lead in Jefferson in Paris, in which Jones portrayed the president’s bastard son, Madison Hemings.”
