  • Kristen Dunst dished on her secret to gaining weight, which was a requirement for her role in FX’s Fargo.

    The 33-year-old actress shared her secret for packing on the pounds while on the red carpet at the Golden Globes.

    “Literally I just gained weight,” she told E! News, as reported by People magazine.

    Dunst explained that her diet was pretty simple, and it sounds like a dream to those who only dream about indulging in her secret weapons.

    “Bread and cheese,” she said was the source of her weight gain. “Different assortments.”

    Although she did pack on the pounds for the show, Dunst shared another little secret about her weight gain, which she always attributes to the show.

    “I say that, but literally I just gained weight in Calgary,” she joked.

    Dunst, who was nominated for best actress in a limited series for her role as a small-town beautician on Fargo, looked stunning on the red carpet in her plunging long, black velvet gown, despite being a little heavier than we tend to see her.

    Dunst told Ryan Seacrest that one of the each episode comes as a surprise to the actress.

    “Every two weeks you get a new script or two so it’s all a surprise,” Dunst said of life on the Fargo set.

    Dunst said she was calm before the awards show, until she hit the red carpet.

    “I was very relaxed at home and I’m pretty chill right now…I don’t know why,” she said with a laugh. “You just feel like pretty meat being shoved down this carpet.”
