Why is Kirsten Dunst showing up in Kanye West's campaign materials? She'd also love the answer.
The rapper has been continuing his attempt to get on various states' ballots in his bizarre presidential "campaign" that doesn't seem to involve a whole lot of actual campaigning, and he recently debuted a strange Kanye 2020 poster that, for some reason, included a picture of Dunst.
Lest one assume West had somehow picked up Dunst's coveted endorsement, the actress seems just as confused as everyone else, asking in a tweet to West, "What's the message here, and why am I apart of it?"

If it makes Dunst feel any better, she wasn't the only celebrity who showed up on the poster against their wishes. It also features Vogue's Anna Wintour — who has backed Democratic nominee Joe Biden for president. Whatever led to Dunst's inclusion, it seems that's one person we can rule out for a Cabinet position in the West administration.
