It's time to take Justin Long off the "Dead To Us" list and put him back on the "Would Make a Rad Drinking Buddy" list: it turns out that he and actress Kirsten Dunst are not dating after all. Although Us Weekly reported that Dunst and Long spent a romantic weekend together at the end of August, including lunch at Chateau Marmont and attending a Joe Purdy concert together, 26-year-old Dunst told Harper's Bazaar that she barely knows the actor at all.

"I don't know him from Adam," the Bring It On actress told the mag. "I met him once and he and his friend were kind enough to walk me home. I've never seen him since."

That's good news for Long, who split up with Drew Barrymore earlier this year; a hookup with the frequently disheveled Dunst would have been a step down or, at best, a lateral move. Who should be Long's next squeeze? Our vote goes to who has shown to have the best chemistry with the 30-year-old actor: Bruce Willis.

Also in the Harper's Bazaar interview, 26-year-old Dunst went into a little (but not much) detail about her struggle with depression, for which she entered a Utah rehab facility earlier this year.

"When you spend your entire life as a child actress, being told where to go and where to stand, you're performing constantly for people," she said. "It definitely breeds the kind of person who's dependent on other people's approval."

But then why did she star in Elizabethtown? Surely no one approved of that decision.
