Krsten Dunst and rehab have a happy ending

I know it’s nothing new about a star going to rehab and felling sorry for what they did, but…The Hollywood baby that experienced this phase lately is Kirsten Dunst. She declares that life hasn’t always been easy – but rehab has helped.

“Everybody in life goes through obstacles in different times of their life, and this year was my difficult time,” Dunst told reporters at the How to Lose Friends and Alienate People press day in New York about her stint in rehab earlier this year. “It’s part of life and it’s just called growing up.”

The  26 year old star checkd into the celebrities’ favourite “lounge”, Utah’s Cirque Lodge Treatment Center last February for depression and said she has gained perspective.

“What I have learned is if you make it out of this business and realize the whole bigger picture of it all, you are in a good spot,” says Dunst. “It’s just seeing what is important and the bigger things in life.”

THe most important thing for Dunst is to try to manage her private life and also living in front of the cameras.

“It’s not healthy to live that kind of life,” she says. “I don’t live in the spotlight and I don’t live my life in front of the paparazzi. I live very comfortably and quietly as possible.”

As for her Hollywood role model from the healthy living point of view, Kirstin admires Natalie Portman, who she thinks has managed to survive in this cruel world.
