Kirsten Dunst's Innocent Claims of 'Depression' Rehab Quickly Shot Down

Taking a break from shooting All Good Things on the Upper West Side, Kirsten Dunst tells E!'s Marc Malkin that she didn't go to Cirque Lodge to get treatment for drug or alcohol abuse, but simply because she was depressed. "I was struggling, and I had the opportunity to go somewhere and take care of myself. I was fortunate to have the resources to do it. My friends and family thought it was a good idea, too. But I didn't know where to go. My doctor recommended Cirque Lodge."

Except Cirque Lodge would've recommended somewhere else.

That's what Star counters with.

If Dunst were only battling depression, then the specialists at Cirque would've rerouted her to another facility, since they "usually doesn't treat patients suffering from depression alone — they must have some kind of chemical dependency."

There were reports that Dunst lost her Miu Miu contract because of her abuse problems, but her camp will maintain that the contract was only supposed to last for six months. And then there's the whole issue of continuing to find work in Hollywood, and even Lindsay Lohan knows that drug-addicted actresses are required to resuscitate their squeaky clean images right away, or risk losing, at the very least, insurance bonding.

    I think it's all Darwinian. The fittest starlets will survive and the weak ones (Lohan, Dunst, those television blondes that are nothings… etc) will not.
