Dakota Fanning is on the cover of December's Teen Vogue magazine looking absolutely fabulous - TV styled the star like an old school glamazon, and the results are simply spectacular! Dakota, who will star in this month's New Moon as Jane, was recently crowned homecoming queen at her California high school, and has been traveling the states promoting her Twilight film.
Fanning has always been one of my favorite young actresses - she's the same age as girls like Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato (in fact, she's younger!) but she always seems to keep it classy and stay out of the eye of the paparazzi. Of course, one could argue that she's much less famous than the Disney girls, but I think that's by choice. Dakota picks her roles carefully, and doing so has won her the respect of many.
Dakota will star alongside New Moon vamp Kristen Stewart in their upcoming film The Runaways - she plays Cherie Currie to Stewart's Joan Jett. We know Kristen can sing - can Dakota? You may recall that Taylor Momsen was also allegedly in the running for the role (and we're sure she's got the pipes to prove it).
Fanning sat down with Teen Vogue to chat about shedding her serious image, preparing for the Twilight mania, and her friendship with Stewart.
On joining the Twilight cast: "I read all four Twilight books in one week. It's such a phenomenon, and I wanted to be able to say that I was a part of it."
On Kristen Stewart: "We became really close, like we'd known each other for our whole lives. We talk all the time...I've never been such an evil character, and because I do know Kristen so well, being mean to her was really weird. It's like, Sorry, dude!"
On their relationship in The Runaways: "The relationship that Joan and Cherie have in the script is kind of the one that Kristen and I have in real life... minus the destructive part."
On growing as an actress: "I'm going to get older. And I want to act for the rest of my life—it's what I love—so I have to move forward with my career. The choices that I make might not always please everyone, but I have to do what I feel is appropriate and right for the time."
