Dakota Fanning promoting her new film, "The Secret Life of Bees". Note: Dakota skipped a grade while still in grade school, so she is 14 and in 10th grade in this clip.
Her first movie was with Sean Penn and Michelle pfeiffer (i am sam), she was only 7 and recieved a critics choice award for her performance. Since then she has been in many more movies and is considered an brilliant actress :)
But that is why Lindsay turned out like that, because she DIDN'T have a loving and supporting family, like Dakota. You shouldn't judge. You don't know what goes on in Lindsay's life behind closed doors that makes her do stuff like that. smh people just judge and never really think about the reasons behind things.
Fanning is probably the most promising actress of the last 20 years. Even when she was very young she had a brilliance I've never seen before in an actor or actress that young.
I just watched her other appearance on Ellen when she was excited about getting her retainer, aha. she's so grown up now. I really like her outfit. simple, yet cute.
when you see her interviews with ellen when she's younger, she's absolutely adorable, but it's so nice to see her grow up and return to the show more mature and with a more poised way of conversing with the host :)
@silencianus She's known Dakota since she was little. Dakota played an 8 year old Ellen once... She's just looking at her like "wow, you are so grown up now."
i've watched all her videos on Ellen, each time she gets more mature and less hyper. she such a great role model, i grew up with watching her in Charlotte's Web and Uptown Girl! And now she's in the Volturi in New Moon and Eclipse!
She is so smart and talented. I was watching Lohan. Please Dakota don't ever...ever...touch alcohol or drugs! I trust she won't because she is way too smart too do that though.
I didn't know it was her in that movie. When they said it was her I couldn't believe it! I still pictured her as the kid that was always screaming in that movie with Tom Cruise lol
it's so sweet Dakota and her younger sister Elle have the same laugh!!!
I love Dekota, I hope she stays as respectful, talented, and cute as she is now :)
She deserves to be in so many bigger films.
I hadn't see any pictures of Dakota before today, and I was stunned to see her now! She certainly is growing up.
This is a great interview!

Dakota REALLY reminds me of Goldie Hawn when she was young. Such a talented young lady too.

I can't believe she's in New Moon and Eclipse now :D

I still can't get over the fact that she's so grown up and so mature. She's not a hyper little girl anymore. lol.
I didn't know it was her in that movie. When they said it was her I couldn't believe it! I still pictured her as the kid that was always screaming in that movie with Tom Cruise lol
She said on The Tonight Show that she skipped a grade and is younger than all her friends in her grade.

She is just a living doll, (oh yes, you too Ellen) but I mean Dakota, just as sweet as she always was, that is a great thing! Louella
SHE IS A LIFE TIME LOVE ♥
ellen looked pissed off at the end. dakota was so adorable.
She started kindergarten a year early, so that's why she's a grade ahead.
yeah she does remind me of anna sophia robb! I used to get them mixed up when i was little.
it's also called "The Secret Life Of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd.
i love soooooooooooooooooooooo much dakota!!!!!!!
