Mila Kunis W Magazine March 2011

Mila Kunis says that despite her buzzed-about, sultry performance in Black Swan (and all the ballet-inspired photo shoots that went with it), she never wants to dance again. The up-and-coming star told W magazine that while she loves the work she did in the movie, it’s not something she’d put herself through again.

“I had never danced in my life. I trained for four months, seven days a week, five hours a day. I had one day off on my birthday. I lost 20 pounds. I tore a ligament. I dislocated my shoulder. I have two scars on my back. And it was worth every minute,” Kunis said of the taxing experience.

“But I will never dance again,” she made clear. “I’m a strong believer in mind over matter, but I didn’t fully understand what that meant until this production. I was like, Well—I wear heels; I can do this. I was wrong: Christian Louboutins are uncomfortable, but I screamed the first time I put on a pointe shoe.”

Yeah, uh, I think I’d choose the Louboutins too.
