Today we’re going back 21 years to the 1st Annual Hollywood Reporter YoungStar Awards, which were held in Los Angeles on September 30th 1995. Kirsten attended the awards & won the “Best Performance by a Young Actress in a Drama Film” category for her performance as Claudia in “Interview with the Vampire”. I’ve added six pics to the gallery.
The Hollywood Reporter YoungStar Awards honored young American actors & actresses aged between 6 & 18 years for their work in film, television, stage & music. Winners were chosen via a poll of 3,500 entertainment industry insiders who read The Hollywood Reporter.
