Kirsten Dunst Rules Out Broadway 8/21/08

Actress Kirsten Dunst has ruled out a career on Broadway - because she is terrified of singing live. The 26-year-old showed off her vocal talents for her role in the third Spider-Man film - but pre-recorded a song for fear of performing in front of the cast and crew on-set.

And she insists it is her apprehension over her singing abilities that keep her from starring in musical theatre. She says, "Singing in the movie was fun because I got to record the song, and then I lip-synched to my own voice because I'm scared to sing in front of people in real life.

"I don't have it in me. I'd do it but not professionally or anything like that. I mean, not on a Broadway stage, that's for sure."
