Hollywood hellraiser Kirsten Dunst's late-night parties enrage her Islington neighbours

She's been here only five minutes but Hollywood hellraiser Kirsten Dunst is already allegedly causing trouble for her north London neighbours.

The actress, who's dating rocker Johnny Borrell, has moved into a £2million house in Islington in an exclusive courtyard - but the people next door won't be popping round for tea anytime soon.

It is claimed that three families have written to Islington council to complain about her late night parties and the loud noise.

We're told she's developed a reputation for disturbing the peace and having a wild time as she leaves the pub and brings people back to her quiet street.

Our well-placed source claims: "Kirsten isn't very popular in Islington at the moment. The locals are incensed that she's changing the tone of the area. She's started spending nights in the local pub by herself chatting to the locals.

"When closing time comes she invites them all round to her house to continue the party. But it seems the noise levels and people coming and going at all hours is getting to her neighbours.

"They've had enough and apparently three families have written a petition to the council in the hope they'll take some action.

"Where they live used to be a peaceful neighbourhood but now they think it is like party central."

The American actress - currently filming How To Lose Friends & Alienate People in London - has told friends she loves living in Islington as it's the new "cool" place to hang out.

She reckons Notting Hill has had its day and Islington is the place to be. Well, for her, maybe, but we reckon her new neighbours might not share that view these days.

She loves hanging out in Upper Street and shopping in the boutiques so much that the 25-year-old moved her boyfriend Johnny, 27, in immediately - although it was reported last week that she kicked him out after becoming fed up with his constant untidiness.

The Razorlight frontman is now reportedly staying with his pal in his own home in Muswell Hill and they are "taking time out". The pair began dating in March after meeting while watching the Kings Of Leon at the South By South music festival in Texas.

Kirsten, who has a thing for British rockers, was said to have fallen head over heels in love with him. He later accompanied her to the Spider-Man 3 premiere in London, and she appears to have been here ever since.

Islington Council said: "We cannot confirm or deny these complaints."
