Dakota Fanning has grown up in front of us, but unlike many other child actresses she seems to still be keeping it together. In fact, her young sister Elle has even followed in her footsteps.
Speaking to Glamour in the March issue, she admits that she’s actually learned a few things from her sibling. “She’s very uninhibited and will try pretty much anything,” she says. “Even the way she dresses— she dresses totally for herself. She risks being made fun of…by me, which I sometimes do, because I’m an older sister! But I totally admire her and think she’s very cool.”
She’s never been romantically linked to anyone in the public eye and she confesses that she’s totally single. “Yeah. I don’t really date,” she tells the magazine. “I have a weird vision of relationships because my parents have known each other since second grade, and they got married right out of college. I’ve always thought that’s what it’s supposed to be like, and if it’s not, then I don’t want to waste my time on it. Even when I was 14, I was like, ‘I’m not gonna marry this person. What’s the point of doing it?’ It’s not me being naive. I just know what it’s supposed to be like. And I think until I feel that, I cannot be bothered.”
