Kirsten Dunst: What people expect of actors is 'totally ridiculous'

Kirsten Dunst is joining the recent chorus of celebrities who would like to remind us all that, hey, they're just people.

The star, who's on the cover of Town & Country promoting her turn in Fargo season two, spoke to the magazine about what she considers to be the "totally ridiculous" expectations of actors these days:
"What people expect of an actor is totally ridiculous. It’s unfair that an artist is expected to speak really well in public and have skin tough enough to withstand sometimes really hurtful criticism, but also, in order to do the job, be really sensitive and in touch with their feelings. So all you can do is be yourself – just be who the hell you are."
That's not bad advice.

She also talked about the idea that Hollywood is kind of a boys club, a particularly relevant topic these days:
“You know what? I felt that way when I was younger, particularly being on the 'Spider-Man' sets, which was pretty much all guys. But the older I get, the less I feel that way. What I’ve found is that the cool guys now want to hang out with the cool girls.”
